August 2025 Days
Friday, August 1, 2025 🌓
On the first day of August 2025, we celebrate Lammas or Lughnasadh, the first Harvest Festival of the year. The Moon is at 9º32 in Scorpio in its First Quarter phase; we see the right side of the Moon!
Starting today, Venus travels through Cancer. Until August 25, 2025, Venus in Cancer will be the supportive and soothing factor in these turbulent times. Venus squares retrograde Saturn and Neptune in Aries. With this First Quarter Moon in Scorpio, repressed feelings can surface.
Mercury is still retrograde in Leo, so it’s a good time for preparation, recovery, and repair.
As we approach the Full Moon on August 9, 2025, this is a good starting point for embarking on a new path!
Saturday, August 2, 2025
Today is Saturday, Saturn’s day! Saturn is retrograde in Aries, requiring you to set clear boundaries.
Today, Venus in Cancer quincunxes retrograde Pluto in Aquarius, and Mars in Virgo quincunxes retrograde Chiron in Aries.
Today, painful situations can arise in relationships related to fear, control, money, love, power struggles, or possessiveness, and the setting of personal boundaries.
Be patient with everything you do, so don’t rush or force anything! What goes wrong now will continue to go wrong. Wise lessons can be learned today. A helping hand comes at the right time.
Sunday, August 3, 2025
Today is Sunday, the day ruled by the Sun. The Sun in Leo shines brightly, and together with the Moon in Sagittarius, it’s a day of positive energy.

This Waxing Gibbous Moon in Sagittarius opposes Uranus in Gemini today.
All in all, this is an unpredictable day with a lot of energy released.

Monday, August 4, 2025
Today is Monday, the day ruled by the Moon! The Waxing Gibbous Moon is in Sagittarius, which always has an open energy. The start of this work week, begins quietly and presents an inspiring picture, as the Sun in Leo trines the Waxing Gibbous Moon in Sagittarius.
A steady, in-between day. Today, everything is going as it should. This is actually a favorable day to take time off, do creative things, enjoy yourself, and celebrate life.
Tuesday, August 5, 2025
The Waxing Gibbous Moon in Sagittarius squares Mars in Virgo, and irritations or provocations may arise today. Mars is nearing the end of the zodiac sign Virgo, so focus and energy may be lower. Today, tactical adjustments are needed. Be patient with everything, try to switch gears, and think twice before speaking or writing, as words can be misinterpreted today.
Wednesday, August 6, 2025
The Waxing Gibbous Moon in Capricorn adds a serious touch to this busy day.
In the period leading up to the Full Moon, you may experience a sense of emptiness, opposition, or an overwhelming feeling, as if the Moon is testing us. This Moon opposes Jupiter in Cancer and squares retrograde Saturn and Neptune in Aries, making it clear whether you are on the right track or have strayed. Red warrior Mars, on the last degree of Virgo, calls for a clean sweep.
A day to finish things, make corrections, adjustments, or tidy up your home or office.
Thursday, August 7, 2025
From today (until September 22, 2025), Mars travels through the air sign Libra.
The period around the Full Moon is an active, energetic time to make things happen, so today is a great day to forge partnerships.
Mars wants dedication and cooperation. Cooperation is necessary for progress. Collaboration at work, with colleagues, teamwork, and even in your relationships. Think creatively!
Anyone born with their Sun, Moon, or ascendant in the sign of Libra benefits from this energy. Mars activates Libra, stimulates creativity, and motivates progress. However, for those with their Sun or ascendant in Aries or Scorpio, this Mars in Libra energy can be challenging and competitive in both business and personal life.
