Horoscope Overview for August 2019 for Virgo:
The first few weeks of August favor personal introspection and alone time, dear Virgo. You may often find yourself acting independently instead of going along with the flow and blending in. Find opportunities to recharge. This is an ideal time for seeing things that you've missed, for reflecting on the past year, and for envisioning how you'd like to proceed in the future. Communicate, but avoid publicizing ideas until you are entirely clear about them.
The last part of August brings the Sun into your sign and the start of a personal power period every year. This year, however, is an especially potent time for Virgos as cosmic bodies enter your sign and pile up there. Mars enters Virgo on the 18th, Venus on the 21st, the Sun on the 23rd, and then Mercury on the 29th! On the 30th, with such a strong showing of planets in your sign, a New Moon occurs in Virgo, meaning the Moon is in your sign, too. It's quite spectacular!
What does this all mean? You're in a strong position to start fresh in many different areas of your life. People are noticing you more than usual. The ball seems to be in your court in most ways. If you need to reinvent yourself or bring a new presentation of yourself to the world, now is the time to do so.
Until then, you have a lot of energy in your privacy sector--more so than usual at this time of year. Fortunately, there is also powerful releasing, forgiving, happy, and cooperative energy. Healing power is with you for your emotional world, personal life, and home and family matters. You find it easier to focus on the big picture and put aside differences and problems. You are making peace with the past, perhaps closing out a tense period or putting a big issue behind you. You may need a retreat or comforting and familiar surroundings more than anything right now.
Family and domestic affairs improve considerably as Jupiter connects well with other bodies this month and turns direct on the 11th. The Full Moon on the 15th requires a bit of a scramble to meet deadlines or deal with work or health matters.
As August progresses, it can be as if you are emerging from a waking sleep with planets, one by one, leaving your privacy sector and moving into your sign. From the 18th forward, your energy levels run high (sometimes too high), and your pioneering instincts are strong. By the 21-23, the Sun and Venus are in your sign, and others are taking note. This is a fabulous period for charm and attractiveness. The last week of the month brings more energy for personal plans and a resurgence of vitality. Everyone seems to want you at this time, and this extends into September!
With a Venus-Mars alignment in your sign on the 23-24, your magnetism and appetite for pleasure heat up. You're especially motivated to go after what you want. Look for inspiration if it doesn't find you first, and enjoy the attention. This transit can be a sign that money is coming your way or a settlement is on its way.
The New Moon on the 30th launches a period of increased personal power and charisma. Earlier, I mentioned that it's an extra special one. This lunation gives you the green light to begin moving personal projects ahead, but always take a few days after a New Moon to get things sorted. You are bolder than usual and motivated to pursue what you want and to prove your value. There may be job offers and opportunities, and some of you could be receiving significant gifts or bonuses. Timing is right, and instincts are sharp. You are looking to improve, pioneer, and go where you, and perhaps others, have never gone before.
This is a time for improvising and enjoying yourself as you do. Loosen up, let things flow along, and embrace new experiences and small changes for best use of this energy.

Virgo (Born August 23 to September 2) AND Virgo Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Virgo:
August 2019 Virgo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
August 2019
Overview.
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until August 22nd:
The Sun continues to shine its light on your solar twelfth house. This is the time to listen to your intuition, to take a break from the hectic pace of your life, and to reflect on what you have learned in the past year. You might naturally retreat a little and take more private time for yourself now.
Your physical energy levels may not be up to par for the time being, and this is your body signaling you to take a break. This is not an ideal time for pushing forward with new personal projects and plans. It is better to finish up projects and tie up loose ends now.
From August 23rd forward:
The Sun illuminates your first house now, bringing issues surrounding your personal identity, appearance, outward behavior, and self-expression to the forefront. This marks the peak of your physical solar cycle, and you are in the position to make an impression on others, and to assert your personal influence. Spontaneity of expression is what this transit is about. You are ready to put your past behind you and to start a new personal cycle. You have presence and you project confidence. Increased energy and a renewed feeling of confidence is with you now, so take advantage.
It's a great month to do something entirely new and pioneering—to go solo in some area of your life. This particular season of the year smiles on your personal endeavors. This is a time when you more easily get in touch with a true sense of your identity and purpose. The most enterprising side of your nature surfaces, and it's time to seize opportunities. Existing problems in your life may be overcome now by bravery and a straightforward approach to your life.
There's nothing wrong with a bit of self-centeredness during this cycle, but avoid taking it too far. It's not the best time for teamwork and other cooperative endeavors. The spotlight is on you and your ability to lead, so make it a good one! Take steps to improve how you come across to others. It's time to carve your own path in life.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until August 20th:
Venus continues to transit through your solar twelfth house now. The twelfth house is a sector of endings, privacy, and mental health, and with Venus here, it's possible that you are reviewing your feelings for someone, or enjoying a more private love life for the time being. You may not be open with your affections for whatever reason now, and this shouldn't be a problem—it may be difficult to articulate, verbalize, or intellectualize your feelings for the time being. Doing some soul-searching as well as an enhanced ability to perceive other dimensions in love can lead you to a deeper understanding of your own love needs and possibly of a love relationship. Love might involve some form of sacrifice or simply a lot of giving and lending of support as opposed to receiving during this cycle.
From August 21st forward:
You could find it hard to deny yourself much of anything during this cycle! This is a time when you naturally let loose your softer, receptive side. Romantic matters, as well as pleasure-seeking activities, come to the fore now. You are more likely to pay closer attention to your physical appearance and mannerisms, aiming to improve and enhance your attractiveness. Others find you especially agreeable and cooperative. You are more gracious, well-behaved (superficial if you are not careful!), and likable now. Take advantage! It's a time when you turn heads, and it's also a period for extra attention to pleasures, pampering, and enjoyment.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until August 11th:
Mercury continues to journey through your solar eleventh house. This is a time when conversations with friends and various networking activities are much appreciated and offer learning experiences. Your ideas just now are especially progressive and unconventional, as you are questioning the rules you typically live by and entertaining some wild ideas.
Not all of these ideas are necessarily going to last or lead to new projects, but it's a time of dreaming up new possibilities and new possible solutions to problems. You are especially interested in spending time with people who are like-minded. Social interactions are more frequent, light, and fun during this cycle.
From August 12-28:
Your mind is focused on private matters and past issues while Mercury transits the twelfth house of your solar chart. This is a time when you are least likely to speak out of turn or to express yourself freely. You're searching behind the curtain, and examining the past for answers.
This is a good time for research, quiet contemplation, and meditation; but do avoid getting dragged down by issues that have outgrown their worth and purpose. Examining the past in order to improve the future is certainly worthwhile, as long as you don't waste your energy on guilt. Creative endeavors could prosper now, particularly those that draw upon the emotions or that require creative visualization skills, such as poetry, art, acting, and other such activities.
You are likely to require a certain amount of solitude in order to get your thoughts together or to be mentally productive. You are less likely to chat indiscriminately during this transit, and tend to be a little secretive or tight-lipped for the time being. This may be important, in fact, because this position of Mercury is sometimes associated with the uncovering of secrets, so discretion may be in order.
From August 29th forward:
With Mercury in your solar first house, you are most inclined to speak up about matters that you previously were only mulling over. Your disposition is more intellectual than usual now, and self-expression comes easily. You are sharper than usual--more observant, and more inclined to "live in the head". Relationships with siblings, neighbors, classmates, and casual friends may become more prominent in your life now.
It is likely that you will initiate discussions during this period, evaluate your appearance and the impact you have on those around you, and make contact with others rather than stay chained to any one place or activity.
This is the time to be direct and to communicate your needs and interests. You are more inclined to talk about yourself and your personal past now. This may also be a restless time when it is difficult to turn the thinking process off when it would be better to relax! It is an especially fruitful time for any endeavor that requires dealing with words, ideas, and facts and figures.
Your demeanor is more youthful, perhaps mischievous, light-hearted, and non-threatening so that others may be more inclined to turn to you for advice or pleasant conversation. Using the power of words to attract what you want or to further your interests works best for you now.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until the 17th:
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 18th forward:
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.

Virgo (Born September 3 to 12) AND Virgo Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Virgo:
August 2019 Virgo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
August 2019
Overview.
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
All month:
The Sun travels through your twelfth house now, marking a time of retreat and regeneration. Think about the attachments you have--to things, people, and routines--and consider which ones are dragging you down. This is a time when competitive energies and the ego are on a bit of a break.
It's not the time to push ahead with brand new projects. Rather, it's a time of reflection, dreaming, and recharging your batteries. Situations that have naturally outgrown their usefulness in your life can now be put behind you. Endings of natural cycles may be part of the picture at this time of year. Your energy is largely applied to personal and private affairs now. Your disposition is introspective. Rest and reflect, and prepare for a more outgoing cycle when the Sun moves into your first house.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort
Until August 4th:
Venus continues to move through your solar eleventh house. This is a strong time for putting your ego aside and lowering your defenses and simply enjoying people. It's a good time for networking and settling disputes if there are differences to iron out with friends. Cooperation comes easily, and warm friendships can be made during this cycle. Personal freedom is especially important to you right now, and you won't enjoy any associations that limit you. It can also be a good time for earnings from business.
From August 5-28:
Venus is spending some time in "hibernation" in your privacy sector. Now, this doesn't necessarily mean that your love life is stagnant, but that your affection is expressed behind closed doors. Attraction to secrets and whispers characterize this period, although for some, it can also be a time of endings, relationship concerns, and wistfulness. Personal and social contacts may be secretive, and there can be secret love affairs, or at least very private love feelings and longings. Shyness can lead to some loneliness or romantic frustration. However, this can also be a deliciously private and intimate time.
From August 29th forward:
You could find it hard to deny yourself much of anything during this cycle! This is a time when you naturally let loose your softer, receptive side. Romantic matters, as well as pleasure-seeking activities, come to the fore now. You are more likely to pay closer attention to your physical appearance and mannerisms, aiming to improve and enhance your attractiveness. Others find you especially agreeable and cooperative.

Virgo (Born September 13 to 23) AND Virgo Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Virgo:
August 2019 Virgo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
August 2019
Overview.
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until August 12th:
The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar eleventh house. During this cycle, you are planting seeds for the future, dreaming up plans that you might begin to develop two months down the road, if they still seem viable then. You are more aware of the benefits of networking, and you might find some great ideas through others now. You might be working in a team now.
You could be questioning some of the rules you have been living by and you could be ready to try something totally new. You are more attracted to that which is progressive or unconventional during this cycle.
From August 13th forward:
The Sun travels through your twelfth house now, marking a time of retreat and regeneration. Think about the attachments you have--to things, people, and routines--and consider which ones are dragging you down. This is a time when competitive energies and the ego are on a bit of a break.
It's not the time to push ahead with brand new projects. Rather, it's a time of reflection, dreaming, and recharging your batteries.

However, this can also be a deliciously private and intimate time.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until August 23rd:
Mercury continues to journey through your solar eleventh house. This is a time when conversations with friends and various networking activities are much appreciated and offer learning experiences. Your ideas just now are especially progressive and unconventional, as you are questioning the rules you typically live by and entertaining some wild ideas.
Not all of these ideas are necessarily going to last or lead to new projects, but it's a time of dreaming up new possibilities and new possible solutions to problems.

Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
From August 2nd forward:
With Mars moving through your solar twelfth house, this is the time to research and reflect upon your goals. It can be a time when past actions catch up with you--and this is not necessarily a bad thing!
It could also be a time when much of your energy is channeled into private matters, or when you prefer that others not observe what you are doing. This is natural--you may just as well do your best work alone for now. Unconscious behavior patterns could influence the way you assert yourself.
Some may experience insomnia during this phase, especially if they are not allowing themselves the chance to recoup and if they are not letting their intuition serve them. Others may enjoy a more active dreaming life (this includes day-dreaming), and, if allowed to run free, the imagination can serve them very well, especially with regards to goals and new concepts.
Overview Horoscope:
Horoscope Overview for August 2019 for Virgo:
The first few weeks of August favor personal introspection and alone time, dear Virgo. You may often find yourself acting independently instead of going along with the flow and blending in. Find opportunities to recharge. This is an ideal time for seeing things that you've missed, for reflecting on the past year, and for envisioning how you'd like to proceed in the future. Communicate, but avoid publicizing ideas until you are entirely clear about them.
The last part of August brings the Sun into your sign and the start of a personal power period every year. This year, however, is an especially potent time for Virgos as cosmic bodies enter your sign and pile up there. Mars enters Virgo on the 18th, Venus on the 21st, the Sun on the 23rd, and then Mercury on the 29th! On the 30th, with such a strong showing of planets in your sign, a New Moon occurs in Virgo, meaning the Moon is in your sign, too. It's quite spectacular!
What does this all mean? You're in a strong position to start fresh in many different areas of your life. People are noticing you more than usual. The ball seems to be in your court in most ways. If you need to reinvent yourself or bring a new presentation of yourself to the world, now is the time to do so.
Until then, you have a lot of energy in your privacy sector--more so than usual at this time of year. Fortunately, there is also powerful releasing, forgiving, happy, and cooperative energy. Healing power is with you for your emotional world, personal life, and home and family matters. You find it easier to focus on the big picture and put aside differences and problems. You are making peace with the past, perhaps closing out a tense period or putting a big issue behind you. You may need a retreat or comforting and familiar surroundings more than anything right now.
Family and domestic affairs improve considerably as Jupiter connects well with other bodies this month and turns direct on the 11th. The Full Moon on the 15th requires a bit of a scramble to meet deadlines or deal with work or health matters.
As August progresses, it can be as if you are emerging from a waking sleep with planets, one by one, leaving your privacy sector and moving into your sign. From the 18th forward, your energy levels run high (sometimes too high), and your pioneering instincts are strong. By the 21-23, the Sun and Venus are in your sign, and others are taking note. This is a fabulous period for charm and attractiveness. The last week of the month brings more energy for personal plans and a resurgence of vitality. Everyone seems to want you at this time, and this extends into September!
With a Venus-Mars alignment in your sign on the 23-24, your magnetism and appetite for pleasure heat up. You're especially motivated to go after what you want. Look for inspiration if it doesn't find you first, and enjoy the attention. This transit can be a sign that money is coming your way or a settlement is on its way.
The New Moon on the 30th launches a period of increased personal power and charisma. Earlier, I mentioned that it's an extra special one. This lunation gives you the green light to begin moving personal projects ahead, but always take a few days after a New Moon to get things sorted. You are bolder than usual and motivated to pursue what you want and to prove your value. There may be job offers and opportunities, and some of you could be receiving significant gifts or bonuses. Timing is right, and instincts are sharp. You are looking to improve, pioneer, and go where you, and perhaps others, have never gone before.
This is a time for improvising and enjoying yourself as you do. Loosen up, let things flow along, and embrace new experiences and small changes for best use of this energy.

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.
