Overview for this Month: Aries (All)
Horoscope Overview for August 2019 for Aries:
Your powers of attraction run very high this month, dear Aries. It's a busy or favorable time for social and cultural activities. Travel plans might seem more viable, and enthusiasm for studies and other activities that broaden your horizons increases in August. Work begins to assume larger proportions in your life this month, rising further as August progresses. Creativity runs very high now. It's not enough for you to follow a routine - you are challenged to bring a new perspective and alternative methods to what you produce or to the services you provide. Work can be lively, and your daily grind is not entirely as predictable, but not chaotic either. Health and fitness routines can also benefit from alternative and creative or holistic approaches now.
The first half of August can find you primarily interested in enjoying more expressive, leisurely, creative, or romantic pursuits with a strong showing of planets in your sector of joy. As well, Jupiter turns direct on the 11th and awakens your optimism. There's exceptionally forgiving, positive energy for moving forward around the 6-8. Motivation and enthusiasm build along creative or romantic lines. You feel more comfortable sharing your creative side, friendships improve, a fun project or pastime excites you, or there may be much to enjoy with a love interest or romantic partner. There can be quite a bit of excitement about sharing your ideas and interests with others.
You're likely to find yourself in a favorable position for romance, adventure, learning, transportation, communications, and creativity. As you seek out a little more experience and freedom, you naturally expand your options to meet people and enjoy yourself. Your feelings for someone can expand and grow, and a person who's holding a torch for you may express their appreciation. You might enjoy a new line of study or develop a current interest, and writing and learning flow exceptionally well.
The Full Moon on the 15th can bring a surprise on a social level to your life. As the month advances, the focus shifts quite dramatically to work and health endeavors as one planet after another head into your solar sixth house. Mars leads the way on the 18th, followed by Venus and the Sun on the 21st and 23rd, and then Mercury on the 29th. With the Moon heading into the same sector, a New Moon occurs on the 30th with all inner planets in this same sector! This congregation doesn't happen often, and in your solar chart, it brings a fresh start to your daily affairs, routines, work, health pursuits, services, pets, or habits, and these themes are strong heading into September, as well.
In the last week of August, your emotions are immediate, and desire for excitement is strong. You're also pouring this energy into your job, chores, and wellness endeavors. Channeling your passion into productive pursuits and bringing more creativity to a project can be wonderfully satisfying now. You may very well stand out for your services or the work you do. Duties, chores, or work can be more joyful and pleasurable. It can also be a time for coming together with someone and making things happen, whether as a fitness or work partner.
The New Moon is a particularly concentrated, creative, and enlightening one. Sudden changes, new directions, and intense emotions characterize this time. From the 24th and into September, surprising events and feelings can arise, particularly in the areas of work, daily routines, and health. Sudden events or opportunities push you into a new direction in your work or with health and wellbeing endeavors. These things can tie in with changes related to money or personal possessions. As your attitude towards your money and things changes, your routines or work can take new shape as well, and vice versa. You feel a little lighter or freer as the result of a burden that leaves you. You can come up with bright ideas on the job or with money. Letting go of fear can open up creativity and improve your health.

Aries (Born March 21 to 31)
AND Aries Ascendant from 0 to 10 degrees Aries:
August 2019 Aries Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
August 2019
Overview.
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until August 22nd:
The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar fifth house. This is a time when pleasure-seeking and creative activities come into focus and grab much of your attention. You are particularly personally charming in a spontaneous, natural way during this solar cycle. This is the time of year when you are ready to perform and to express yourself creatively.
This is a very playful cycle, when you are inspired creatively and emotionally. It's a good time for recreation, romance, connecting with children, and enjoying and performing the arts. Your ego is tied up in your children, romantic relationships, and creative output now, so that you can be especially proud of these people and things. You can also be over-sensitive about these matters if you feel you are not getting enough appreciation.
From August 23rd forward:
The Sun illuminates your solar sixth house. During this cycle, you take more pride in the work you do and in your health routines than any other time of the year. You are sorting through the experiences of the last several months, separating the worthwhile from the worthless. This is a good time to build your skills, to get organized, and to attend to your health and wellbeing. It's a great time to make improvements to your regular routines. Your self-esteem and your ego are tied up in the work you do and in the services you give. Details are more important to you now.
It's time to bring order to your life by focusing on the little things that make up the whole. This cycle presents an opportunity to get rid of what doesn't work in your life, while also discovering what does. You could seek distinction and strive towards perfection in your work. Efficiency should be your goal now. Your physical health, as well as the relationship between your body and your mind, are in focus.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until August 20th:
Venus continues to transit your solar fifth house. Your popularity is on an upward trend during this cycle as others find you especially attractive and friendly. You may have the desire to dress well and in good taste. There is strength in your feelings of love and the power of attraction, which may open the door to new romantic relationships. Yet, you are not aggressive in your approach to love. Instead, you attract more if you allow yourself to be pursued during this cycle. Conditions are highlighted in connection with young people, and quite possibly a female child--a stronger bond could be formed during this period. You are feeling inspired creatively and romantically and you express your loving feelings quite openly now. Creative self-expression of any kind is favored at this time. You will also thoroughly enjoy artistic, musical, or cultural events and activities, especially in the company of a loved one. At this time, you instinctively know how to place yourself in the best light in order to make a good impression on others. Any love affair begun now will be characterized by good cheer, having fun, and a fair share of emotional drama!
From August 21st forward:
Venus graces your solar sixth house now. Establishing a happy and harmonious work environment through friendly relations with co-workers or tidying up your work area comes into focus now. Romantic and social activities may revolve around your working environment. You are generally well liked and respected socially on the job right now. Some laziness is possible now, as you tend to associate pleasure with work! Perhaps you are socializing more than usual on the job. You have good team spirit during this cycle, and you are more tactful and obliging with your co-workers. You are less inclined to fall in love for the sake of love itself during this cycle. Your tendency is to consider whether it is clever to do so! You're most successful doing tasks that involve cooperation and team harmony. You could find that your talents or skills are especially appreciated. Romantic and social activities may revolve around your working environment.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until August 11th:
Mercury continues to transit your solar fourth house. Your thoughts tend to revolve around personal matters, especially family, home, and domestic issues. You enjoy, more than usual, discussions and stories about the past and about family.
You are more rational and objective when it comes to your relationships with those close to you, so it is, in fact, a good time to open up discussions with family. There can be increased activities in and around the home during this cycle. You are not as interested in worldly matters and career as you are in your personal life for the time being.
From August 12-28:
Mercury transits your solar fifth house. During this cycle, there is a powerful mental connection with your creative self-expression. You are proud of your ideas, and very good at expressing them to others smoothly now. Your thinking is more creative than usual. You tend to entertain others with your conversation; and your sense of humor (and of mischief!) is especially strong.
Your thoughts turn to children, pleasures, or romance during this expressive cycle. You might enjoy researching speculative ventures now. You especially enjoy games that involve competing with others on a mental level. You have a stronger need than usual for intellectual stimulation. Therefore, your friends and romantic partner are best appreciated now if they are intellectual types. You're more willing to take risks on a mental level now, so take advantage of the increased spontaneity and creativity that comes with this position.
From August 29th forward:
Mercury transits your solar sixth house. This is a good placement for Mercury, as it is the natural ruler of the sixth house. It's an excellent period for sorting out the details of your daily existence. You are inclined to make to-do lists, pay bills and sort out clutter, and to do detail work on the job. Health matters are most certainly on your brain as well, and you could be thinking of scheduling check-ups or busy researching ways to improve your health. You may also show a keener interest in improving your basic skills.
Your approach to work during this cycle is pleasant, happy, and logical for the most part, unless you allow worry or scattered energy to enter the picture. You are inclined to want to learn new work skills, or to improve your skills and output in terms of work. There is likely to be more activity, movement, contact, and communications with co-workers now.
You tend to take more interest in organizing your working environment--and this is an excellent time to do so, as you are especially objective and intelligent when it comes to getting a handle on your daily affairs and all of the "little things" that contribute to a feeling of efficiency and competency. Menial tasks become more prominent. Watch, however, for tension or idle chit-chat interfering with your work output during this cycle.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until the 17th:
Mars continues to energize your solar fifth house. This brings increased energy and enthusiasm to romance, child-rearing, and creative or recreational endeavors. It can also bring some strife to these areas of your world in some cases. For the most part, however, a romance could pick up pace, you are self-motivated and inspired on creative and expressive levels, and your self-confidence is well-received by others during this cycle. You are more willing to take little risks and you are competitive in a mostly friendly way. In your enthusiasm to take the lead, try to be sensitive to and respectful of others' needs.
From the 18th forward:
Mars animates and energizes your solar sixth house. You have more energy for work and your daily routines tend to speed up during this transit. Perhaps you have a larger workload than usual. It's a great time to take charge of your health. You have much energy at your disposal to pick up (or step up) a health and physical activity program. It might be hard for you to work with others in a harmonious manner during this transit, and disputes with co-workers are possible. If you are feeling especially angry, frustrated, or restless, it would be wise to find little projects and things to do so that you can channel excess energy constructively. If health is affected, fevers or infections are more likely.

August 2019 Career, & General Trends
August 2019
Overview.
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
All month:
The Sun illuminates your solar fifth house now. After a period of "nesting", you are coming out of your shell, ready to perform and to express yourself creatively. This is a very playful period of the year, when you are inspired creatively and emotionally. After a period of self-protectiveness, you are now more spontaneous and more willing to take risks. You take more pride than usual in your creations, your love affairs, your children, and your hobbies. Pleasure and amusement play an important role in your search for freedom of self-expression now. Show off your best colors!
You want others to take notice, and you are more sensitive to whether people appreciate you. More than any time of the year, this is the cycle in which you focus on having fun, enjoying romance, and expressing yourself creatively. Your hobbies, leisure time, moments spent with children, gaming time, and so forth, all come into focus at this time of year.
This is a cycle in which you find joy in expressing who you are--when your "inner child" comes out to play. This is a time when you are more flirtatious than usual, and when you might take a few risks in life--not only gambling with games but with life itself. You might be a bit of a showman at this time. You are likely feeling good in general, and you tend to spread the joy.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort
Until August 4th:
Venus continues to transit your solar fourth house now. Domestic relationships and the home environment tend to be especially harmonious and peaceful during this cycle. You may have a desire to decorate your home with better quality items or more attention to aesthetics. An inner sense of peace and security tends to dominate now, or the desire for peace motivates you now. Your affections are strong but you don't wear your heart on your sleeve just now, preferring quiet moments with loved ones.
From August 5-28:
Venus warms your solar fifth house. This is an expressive period for the goddess of love! It's natural for you to turn on the charm without even lifting a finger. You are especially attracted to aesthetic forms of recreation. You feel a little more playful now, and love matters tend to be laced with a touch of drama. That shouldn't be a problem--in fact, you kind of like it that way for the time being. More loving and appreciative relationships with your children may also figure now. Your powers of attraction skyrocket during this cycle. Yet, you are not aggressive in your approach to love. Instead, you attract more if you allow yourself to be pursued during this cycle. Creative self-expression of any kind is favored at this time. At this time, you instinctively know how to place yourself in the best light in order to make a good impression on others.

August 2019
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until August 12th:
The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar fourth house. This is a period of recharge, of getting in touch with your innermost feelings, of connecting with your roots, and of spending more time and energy on home and family. Home and family matters capture your attention and are a strong source of pride now. It's a time when worldly matters are not as important to you.
Use this energy to find ways to improve your family relations and your home environment. During this heart-warming cycle, you would do best to allow yourself to explore your inner needs so that you can nurture yourself and others in a healthy, growth-oriented manner, in preparation for more outgoing times to come.

From August 2nd forward:
Mars animates and energizes your solar fifth house. This is a very self-expressive time when you have lots of energy, but not necessarily self-discipline to match. You have more energy at your disposal to express yourself creatively, through activities with children, romantic activities, hobbies, or sports. Your love life may step up a notch, and this could be an especially passionate time. You tend to put more energy into play and pleasure! Be careful not to burn the candle at both ends. Also, watch out for a tendency to want to gamble. You are more playful than usual, and especially magnetic. You have a likeably competitive, more energetic, and pleasingly assertive temperament during this transit. However, in some cases, you may be coming on too strong or aggressively, or meeting with aggressiveness in romantic relationships.

You're likely to find yourself in a favorable position for romance, adventure, learning, transportation, communications, and creativity. As you seek out a little more experience and freedom, you naturally expand your options to meet people and enjoy yourself. Your feelings for someone can expand and grow, and a person who's holding a torch for you may express their appreciation. You might enjoy a new line of study or develop a current interest, and writing and learning flow exceptionally well.
The Full Moon on the 15th can bring a surprise on a social level to your life. As the month advances, the focus shifts quite dramatically to work and health endeavors as one planet after another head into your solar sixth house. Mars leads the way on the 18th, followed by Venus and the Sun on the 21st and 23rd, and then Mercury on the 29th. With the Moon heading into the same sector, a New Moon occurs on the 30th with all inner planets in this same sector! This congregation doesn't happen often, and in your solar chart, it brings a fresh start to your daily affairs, routines, work, health pursuits, services, pets, or habits, and these themes are strong heading into September, as well.
In the last week of August, your emotions are immediate, and desire for excitement is strong. You're also pouring this energy into your job, chores, and wellness endeavors. Channeling your passion into productive pursuits and bringing more creativity to a project can be wonderfully satisfying now. You may very well stand out for your services or the work you do. Duties, chores, or work can be more joyful and pleasurable. It can also be a time for coming together with someone and making things happen, whether as a fitness or work partner.
The New Moon is a particularly concentrated, creative, and enlightening one. Sudden changes, new directions, and intense emotions characterize this time. From the 24th and into September, surprising events and feelings can arise, particularly in the areas of work, daily routines, and health. Sudden events or opportunities push you into a new direction in your work or with health and wellbeing endeavors. These things can tie in with changes related to money or personal possessions. As your attitude towards your money and things changes, your routines or work can take new shape as well, and vice versa. You feel a little lighter or freer as the result of a burden that leaves you. You can come up with bright ideas on the job or with money. Letting go of fear can open up creativity and improve your health.

About Our Monthly Horoscopes:
Our detailed monthly horoscopes are designed to reveal and interpret the current transits of the Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars in your solar chart. Because these energies or transits do not unfold neatly into any given calendar month (many transits carry forward from one month to the next), you will find some of the energies continue from a previous month. For example, the Sun might transit the second house of your solar chart from June 21 to July 22, so that you will find a similar interpretation for this transit in both June and July’s horoscope. This is normal and expected. While new months can hold new energy, transits don’t abruptly change because the calendar month changes.
These monthly horoscopes also include an overview paragraph, as well as other energies specific to the month, such as retrogrades, eclipses, or major outer planet transits.
The Highlights section reveal lunar cycle dates. Lunar cycles repeat themselves approximately every 28 days, so it is normal to see the same lunar peaks, such as “Your Personal New Moon” and “Monthly career peak” repeat themselves from month to month, but with different dates. They serve as a helpful guide to cycle peaks in different areas of life, such as financial, career, romance, and partnership.
The horoscopes are divided into three groups or decanates, and the differences between the groups are subtle in parts and large in other parts. For those who prefer a whole sign approach to horoscopes (classic), simply read the first decanate regardless of your birthdate.
