Overview for this Month: Pisces (All)
August 2020 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Pisces:
You can experience a strong desire or drive to be efficient this month, dear Pisces. You seem to zip through challenges quickly and orderly, and your innovations are grounded in practical realities. Applying yourself to something constructive is satisfying. Putting in the effort to improve your daily routines is satisfying. You're less inclined to overthink and tend instead to throw yourself into your activities. You might feel some healthy competition that pushes you to new heights, and it feels good to rise to a challenge, especially one of your own making.
You might frequently answer to your inner rhythms and might feel slowed down if you need to wait for others to catch up with you. You're in good shape to get organized and tend to the "little things" that are so important in your life.
While you're often busy and engaged, the Full Moon on the 3rd reminds you of the need to slow down and listen to your body's signals. You might come to an important realization about your work or health on mental, emotional, and physical levels. If you've been ignoring your need for more rest, solitude, and time to catch your breath, circumstances might push the matter now. It's time to consider ways to regenerate and strengthen emotionally.
Gathering information to help others (or yourself) can figure strongly in August, and while you can sometimes get a bit lost in the details and this can overwhelm you at times, you get the opportunity to resolve problems, organize, and get your affairs in order. You can also be quite excited to get your money straight, earn more, or take on an ambitious project.
After an extended stay in your solar fourth house, Venus moves into harmony with your sign for a month, starting August 7th. It's a very introspective, even self-protective, sector, and this transit may have kept you a little more withdrawn or quiet than usual. Now through September 6th, you're more willing to take some personal risks with your heart, personality, and creativity. Your natural charm comes shining through.
Uranus turns retrograde mid-month. This yearly, five-month cycle currently happens in your communications sector. Uranus has a way of pulling some repressed feelings to the surface, and yet you may not feel that you can express them smoothly or fully. In the months ahead, however, you’ll find different–and possibly more satisfying–channels for representing and expressing yourself. You may be re-examining some of your projects or interests, which have recently been somewhat sporadic or sudden.
The New Moon on the 18th brings take-charge, forward-looking energy to work, service, health, and habits. You can be highly motivated to launch new work projects and personal health or fitness programs. The desire to take better care of yourself or to do your personal best can be substantial. Circumstances may be such that you take more pride in your work or your attention to personal wellness.
Mercury and then the Sun head into your partnership sector on the 19th and 22nd, respectively. As such, as August progresses, you tend to seek out others for ideas, companionship, and decisions. You also tend to attract talkative people into your life or more conversation and interaction in your current relationships.
The connections you make or conversations you have can be very revealing and fruitful in later August. An understanding with someone close to you can be supportive.

Pisces (Born February 20 to March 1) and Pisces Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Pisces:
August 2020 Pisces Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
August 2020
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until August 21st:
The Sun continues to spotlight your solar sixth house. This is a busy period that finds you tending to many different details of your daily existence--your work, various projects, organization around the home and office, your daily routines, and health matters. Your ego may be especially tied up in the work you do, so that you are proud and more creative than usual in your job. You may be in the position to take charge in your work, or to take charge of your health and diet. Sometimes this cycle relates to increased activities involving pets. You seek to perfect your skills or methods now, and you focus on the parts that make up the whole now in order to improve your daily life. As a result, you can be more critical than usual, but this process is necessary for you to sort out what works for you and what doesn't.
From August 22nd forward:
The Sun illuminates your seventh house. At this time of year, you have a greater need than usual to be with a partner. Bouncing ideas off someone helps you to better understand yourself. A partner provides a mirror for your own self-discovery. Now is the time to realize your own potential through a significant other. During this cycle, you focus on balancing your personal interests and objectives with your social life, or with those of a partner. The emphasis is on "us" rather than "me".
You need the energies, companionship, and support of other people, and they may also seek out your support and companionship. It's important to include others rather than to go solo for the time being. However, bending too much to the will of another is not advised either. Social interactions of a personal, one-on-one kind are emphasized. Circumstances are such that your diplomacy skills are required. Your popularity is increasing, and is reinforced by your own ability to cooperate and harmonize. Your ego and pride are tied up in how you relate to others now. This may be an especially busy time for people who consult or work with clients one-on-one.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until August 7th:
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 7th forward:
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. Any love affair begun now will be characterized by good cheer, having fun, and a fair share of emotional drama!
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until the 4th:
Mercury continues to transit your solar fifth house. Increased communication with children, romantic partners, and people who share the same hobbies as you can occur now. Certainly, you are thinking about these people and about love and romance, child rearing, and/or creative pursuits more than usual. Mental exercises and competitions can be particularly enjoyable now. You express yourself with warmth and creativity, and you have an appreciative "audience" for your ideas now.
From August 5-19:
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.
From August 20th forward:
Mercury transits your solar seventh house. You tend to weigh the pros and cons of every issue during this cycle, taking into account others' needs as well as your own. Some indecisiveness is possible now, simply because you naturally entertain opposing viewpoints. You have a strong desire to cooperate and communicate with others now. You feel most comfortable spending time with people on a one-to-one level, or with those with whom you share a personal history.
Interestingly, your own thoughts become clearer through dialogue with others during this window. You may be doing public relations work, counseling, negotiating, or arbitration during this cycle. There is a lot of emphasis on communications with partners and best friends at this time. You can use the power of words to advise others or to make peace with people in your life. You are more diplomatic than usual during this transit.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
All month:
Mars continues to energize your solar second house. You tend to put more effort into making money or making your life more comfortable and secure during this cycle. Your strong desire to be financially independent could lead to positive things, such as paying off debts or increased enterprise. The opposite side of the coin is asserting your independence by making impulsive purchases or taking risks with your money. You are more protective of the way you earn or spend money, as well as with the values you live your life by, and if others question you about these things, there could be arguments.
Note that Mars sticks around this area of your solar chart for much longer than usual–until January 6th, 2021.

August 2020 Pisces Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
August 2020
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
All month:
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.

August 2020
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until August 11th:
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 the 15-30:
Mercury transits your solar sixth house. This is a good placement for Mercury, as it is the natural ruler of the sixth house.

Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until the 4th:
Mars continues to activate your solar first house, supplying you with added energy to apply towards personal goals, and a more assertive and direct approach to the world in general.
This is an excellent period for physical training and exercise of any kind. The desire to be self-sufficient and independent is especially strong now. You are far less tolerant of being restricted by or dependent on others, and this is a good time to identify your personal strengths and take positive action to rectify situations that may have previously felt frustrating or repressive.
You might be especially attracted to personal challenges, and seeing just how far you can push. However, be careful not to push yourself (and others) too far.
From the 5th forward:
Mars energizes your solar second house. You have more energy at your disposal to make money, but also to defend your values. This can be a very resourceful time, when you make the most of what you have. You have much energy for new money-making projects, or for stepping up existing ones.
You may be over-identifying with what you have and own, and you could be trying to prove yourself (your worth) to others using money and possessions as the means to do so. If conflicts occur during this transit, they are likely to be over issues of ownership. This is a time when impulse buying is at a peak. You probably should avoid using credit right now, simply because your spending habits may be excessive and impulsive.
Mars will continue to transit this area of your solar chart for longer than usual–until February 2021.

Uranus has a way of pulling some repressed feelings to the surface, and yet you may not feel that you can express them smoothly or fully. In the months ahead, however, you’ll find different–and possibly more satisfying–channels for representing and expressing yourself. You may be re-examining some of your projects or interests, which have recently been somewhat sporadic or sudden.
The New Moon on the 18th brings take-charge, forward-looking energy to work, service, health, and habits. You can be highly motivated to launch new work projects and personal health or fitness programs. The desire to take better care of yourself or to do your personal best can be substantial. Circumstances may be such that you take more pride in your work or your attention to personal wellness.
Mercury and then the Sun head into your partnership sector on the 19th and 22nd, respectively. As such, as August progresses, you tend to seek out others for ideas, companionship, and decisions. You also tend to attract talkative people into your life or more conversation and interaction in your current relationships.
The connections you make or conversations you have can be very revealing and fruitful in later August. An understanding with someone close to you can be supportive.

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.
