Overview for this Month: Taurus (All)
August 2022 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Taurus:
In August, communications, enterprising ventures, family, and romance are in strong focus, dear Taurus. Much of the month is dedicated to improving your home and family life. If things are out of balance on the home front, you go to lengths to create a peaceful and stable atmosphere. Your personal or domestic life is busy, mostly pleasant, and rewarding. As August advances, a creative, playful theme is building.
Your ideas are received especially well until the 11th, and your social life can get a nice boost. Venus in your communications sector enhances you and your connections. You more fully enjoy your personal interests, learning, and sharing. This period adds more charm and warmth to your presentation. Sharing ideas and activities can lead to something very special and quite enterprising.
You might enjoy pleasant turnarounds in your personal life from the 11th forward. Friendly energy is with you for family relationships, or a more peaceful home life is notable. You could receive--or give--unexpected support.
Mars continues to transit your sign until the 20th, spurring you on and motivating you to pursue your desires. You're making things happen, and while you can be a little headstrong and impatient at times, this is generally a strong time for knowing what you want and getting things done. The beginning of the month is a power period for personal pursuits, communications, personal influence, and efforts to improve your life. '
You're connecting with your independence and personal courage, overcoming any existing fears of trusting your instincts or going it alone. You feel pleasantly motivated. People are attracted to your wit, independence, and originality.
The Full Moon on the 11th can challenge your craving for more downtime with a scurry of activity. Events occur that highlight your responsibilities or that remind you of your ties to the outside world! Or, this lunation awakens you to the need for a long-term goal or well-defined ambition. An overarching plan is important now, and you may come up with a new idea along these lines.
From the 20th, you're inclined to actively build, improve, and develop with Mars moving into your resources sector. It can be most satisfying to focus on something that has long-term potential. A few days later, the Sun heads into your sector of joy, and you also want to enjoy yourself!
Uranus begins its yearly five-month retrograde cycle on the 24th, turning some things inward as you get in touch with what drives you, particularly if you've been restless or on edge. Examine which fears or attitudes have limited your independence and personal truth. Plans can go on hold or slow down, whether due to circumstances or because you are not quick to make changes or take personal risks.
The New Moon on the 27th is good for reorienting yourself in a new direction on an emotional level. You want to start fresh on creative or romantic matters, and expressing and enjoying yourself more fully can be a goal. There may be some concerns about money or comfort issues, but it's a good time for a new and improved approach to leisure time, love, dating, pleasure, or pastimes.
August brings opportunities to upgrade, improve, and innovate. You can be a motivating force in your personal circle. Relaxing, recreational activities can appeal and can even be therapeutic. Your desire to thrive is strong as you close out the month. You can feel strongly motivated to improve your current circumstances, your sense of security, and your income or resources.

Taurus (Born April 21 to 30) and Taurus Ascendant from 0 to 10 degrees Taurus:
August 2022 Taurus Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
August 2022
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until August 22nd:
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 23rd forward:
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, Pleasure
Until August 11th:
Venus continues to play in your solar third house during this period, indicating a more light-hearted, curious, and intellectual approach to love and pleasure, as well as a more easygoing communicative style.
During this cycle, you are especially charming in your communications. Your words are soothing, and you tend to use words to smooth over problems that you see around you. You are mostly cheerful in your approach to others, and perhaps somewhat intellectual.
Essentially, you are quite companionable during this cycle. You enjoy talking about what interests you, and you see value in the exchange of ideas. Sometimes this transit brings benefit through siblings, communications, or short trips. Good companionship is as equally important as romance to you during this cycle.
You prefer an intellectual, communicative, and witty partner just now, and your powers of attraction increase through expressing these types of qualities. You are most attracted to wit, cheerfulness, and verbal rapport, and you are especially good at mediating conflicts now. If you were to begin a romance or friendship during this cycle, it would likely be quite light-hearted.
From August 11th:
Venus warms your solar fourth house now. During this cycle, you are especially fond of the life of the home and family. You are more receptive and gentle on a romantic level, and tend to be sentimental or nostalgic.
You may particularly value the aesthetics in and around your home during this period. If things are out of whack on the home front, you will do whatever you can to create a peaceful and stable atmosphere.
In relationships, loyalty and sensitivity are more important to you than typically. You might focus on ways to earn money in or from your home. This is a calming influence--a time when simple pleasures most appeal.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until the 3rd:
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 the 4-25:
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 the 26th 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 19th:
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 20th 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.

August 2022 Taurus Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
August 2022
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
All month:
With the Sun spotlighting your house of family and home, these areas are your instinctive focus during this period. Your family, home, property concerns, roots, and heritage come into focus and become a source of pride. You are likely quite preoccupied with feelings of security and your inner experiences. This is a time when you send down roots and seek a feeling of belonging. You could be thrust into a position of leadership on the home front.
Ego confrontations with family members are possible now, but the best way to handle this energy is to do your best to strengthen your relationship with your family and your home base. This is a time to do what you can to build trust in your family life and a strong foundation within yourself so that regardless of what you meet in the outside world over the next months, you have a secure place to return to. Besides spending more time tending to domestic affairs, the focus can be on cultivating and nourishing the inner foundations that support you and your growth. This is a time to collect yourself--to fill your well, so to speak.

Taurus (Born May 11 to 21) AND Taurus Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Taurus:
August 2022 Taurus Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
August 2022
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until August 12th:
The Sun continues to highlight your solar third house--a time of the year in which you are most likely to be a "busy bee". Communications, short trips, errand-running, and general busy-ness feature now. You could have a finger in many pies, so to speak, as your curiosity is piqued by a larger variety of things than usual. Used well, this could be a period in which you come up with solutions to a number of problems. You are more inclined to take pride in your intellectual accomplishments and/or your ability to socialize and make connections.
From August 12th forward:
With the Sun spotlighting your house of family and home, these areas are your instinctive focus during this period. Your family, home, property concerns, roots, and heritage come into focus and become a source of pride. You are likely quite preoccupied with feelings of security and your inner experiences. This is a time when you send down roots and seek a feeling of belonging. You could be thrust into a position of leadership on the home front.
Ego confrontations with family members are possible now, but the best way to handle this energy is to do your best to strengthen your relationship with your family and your home base. This is a time to do what you can to build trust in your family life and a strong foundation within yourself so that regardless of what you meet in the outside world over the next months, you have a secure place to return to. Besides spending more time tending to domestic affairs, the focus can be on cultivating and nourishing the inner foundations that support you and your growth. This is a time to collect yourself--to fill your well, so to speak.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort
Until the 3rd:
Venus continues to grace your solar second house during this period. You might receive gifts or bonuses now, or you find much comfort in what you already own and have. You may be a little extravagant with money for the time being, as your desire for luxury and comfort items is increased now, and this is something to watch for. When it comes to love, you value those who make you feel comfortable and secure.
From August 3-27 forward:
With Venus moving through your solar third house during this period, you are mostly cheerful in your approach to others, and perhaps somewhat intellectual, during this transit. Essentially, you are quite companionable now. You enjoy talking about what interests you, and you find great value in the exchange of ideas. Sometimes this transit brings benefit through siblings, communications, or short trips. During this period, you are most attracted to wit, cheerfulness, and verbal rapport. You are especially good at mediating conflicts. Smoothing over differences using your diplomacy skills figures now.
From August 28th forward:
Venus warms your solar fourth house now. During this cycle, you are especially fond of the life of the home and family. You are more receptive and gentle on a romantic level, and tend to be sentimental or nostalgic.
You may particularly value the aesthetics in and around your home during this period. If things are out of whack on the home front, you will do whatever you can to create a peaceful and stable atmosphere.
In relationships, loyalty and sensitivity are more important to you than typically. You might focus on ways to earn money in or from your home. This is a calming influence--a time when simple pleasures most appeal.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until the 17th:
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 the 17th forward:
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.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until the 3rd:
Mars continues to energize your solar twelfth house now. While Mars occupies the twelfth house, asserting yourself in a direct and straightforward manner can be difficult. This is largely due to a feeling of not being in touch with what it is you want or desire just for the time being as you reassess your goals and needs.
This lack of direction and self-knowledge should prompt you to look within to learn about your desires. It is likely that you will be much clearer when Mars reaches your first house. For the time being, take some time for rest and give your ego a break.
From the 4th:
You are able to stand your ground and assert yourself more than usual during this transit of Mars through your solar first house. You have energy at your disposal to move your plans forward, and you are more enterprising. You want to leave your mark on the world in some way--however big or small--and you are more able to make an impression than usual. If circumstances are such, you are able to easily fight back. In fact, you may be somewhat combative under this influence, and you may have a short temper.
Avoid being pushy. Take charge of your life, but don't bulldoze over others in the process! This is an excellent transit for assertiveness and physical vitality. Love affairs may also be stepped up during this period. On the rare occasion when an accident occurs, it is more likely to involve the head or face.

There may be some concerns about money or comfort issues, but it's a good time for a new and improved approach to leisure time, love, dating, pleasure, or pastimes.
August brings opportunities to upgrade, improve, and innovate. You can be a motivating force in your personal circle. Relaxing, recreational activities can appeal and can even be therapeutic. Your desire to thrive is strong as you close out the month. You can feel strongly motivated to improve your current circumstances, your sense of security, and your income or resources.

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 the 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. Transits don’t 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 horoscopes are divided into three groups or decans, 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, simply read the first decanate regardless of your birthdate.
Learn all about the signs of the zodiac. We offer interpretations of the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, and the Ascendant in the signs:
Aries Taurus Gemini Cancer Leo Virgo Libra Scorpio Sagittarius Capricorn Aquarius Pisces
