Weekly Love Horoscope Overview – August 23 – 29
Aries Weekly Love Horoscope
Poets write about romantic love, but platonic love is just essential to your heart. On August 22, a full moon will rush through your eleventh house of friends, bringing your attention to the people you consider your comrades. How can you set aside more time for your friends? How can you overcome doubts and nurture your need for social interaction? What groups do you gravitate toward?
Your relationships will embrace stability by August 23, as Venus in your partnership sector forms a trine with Saturn in your idealistic eleventh house. This is an opportunity to rethink the future you and your lover have together. This is a powerful moment to instill longevity in your love and make commitments that can’t be easily broken. If anything, it’s time to prioritize relationships that feel mature and healthy.
However, by August 26, Venus will oppose Chiron in Aries, which could bring up fears surrounding your desirability and ability to be loved. These insecurities may be there, but they don’t have to control you and they certainly shouldn’t control your relationship. Needing reassurance from your lover is one thing. Rejecting love out of fear is another thing entirely. Attempting to overcome these insecurities will help dull their power over you.
Taurus Weekly Love Horoscope
You may feel a surge of attraction toward your lover as this week begins. On August 22, Mars in your pleasure-seeking fifth house will trine Uranus in Taurus, inspiring you to embrace your desires in a way that leaves you satisfied. You may even feel like trying new things in the bedroom and experimenting with new ways to express your love to your partner. Embrace what a passionate person you can be.
By August 22, you may feel distracted from your love life as a full moon crashes into your dominant tenth house, causing your focus to drift toward your goals and your ambitions. These ambitions extend beyond your career as you may start visualizing the mature relationship you’ve always wanted.
However, this distraction is only temporary, because, on August 24, Mercury in your romantic fifth house will oppose Neptune in your platonic eleventh house, which could leave you feeling somewhat overwhelmed—and slightly confused—about your feelings and where they stand. Have an open mind, because, by August 26, Mercury will trine Pluto in your adventurous ninth house, pushing you to reform your entire understanding of what love is and what love could be. Embrace the idea that love can—and often does—evolve.
Gemini Weekly Love Horoscope
As this week begins, a full moon could take you on a beautiful adventure. Taking place on August 22 in your freedom-loving ninth house, this full moon is revealing the ways in which you’re craving spontaneity and spice. There’s no reason a relationship needs to feel like an anchor holding you down. Prioritize a relationship that helps you spread your wings and fly away.
In fact, you may find that it’s easier to sustain the excitement in your relationship by August 23. As Venus in your passionate fifth house forms a trine with Saturn in your expansive ninth house, you may realize that making a point to create romance and maintain the butterflies-in-your-stomach feeling is actually what can help your relationship last. The honeymoon phase doesn’t have to come to an end.
However, insecurities about what other people think of your relationship could sink in by August 26, when Venus opposes Chiron in your social eleventh house. If you’re happy in your relationship, recognize how you may be letting other people get in the way of that. As Mercury in your compassionate fourth house forms a trine with Pluto in your intimate eighth house on August 26, it will be easier to identify what truly matters. Protect the ones who love you for you.
Cancer Weekly Love Horoscope
You may feel more aware of what you’re sacrificing and sharing in a relationship as this week begins. On August 22, a full moon will radiate through your intimate eighth house, which may shine a light on the way you take on your lover’s burdens. Relationships require compromise, but if you feel overwhelmed by the demands, it may be the perfect time to set reasonable boundaries.
In fact, setting these boundaries could improve your relationship more quickly than you would think. On August 23, Venus in your comforting fourth house will trine Saturn in your transformative eighth house, which could help you realize how boundaries and the act of respecting each other’s needs could bring you even closer, especially if you share a home together.
However, by August 24, there’s a chance miscommunications could prevent you from being on the same page as Mercury in your chatty third house opposes Neptune in your ninth house of perspective. Try not to make assumptions about what your partner knows or understands. But luckily, by August 26, Mercury will trine Pluto in your partnership sector, paving the way for a deep heart-to-heart. Say what you want to say and trust they’ll care about your deeper truths.
Leo Weekly Love Horoscope
You may be embracing so many revelations about your love life and where it stands this week. After all, on August 22, the full moon will glimmer in your seventh house of partnerships, shining a light on aspects of your relationship dynamics you may not have been aware of. This full moon could inspire you to prioritize relationships that suit your needs and let go of the ones that don’t. It could even help you become the partner you know you can be.
In fact, by August 23, you could establish a level of communication in your relationship that helps you understand each other. Venus in your chatty third house will trine Saturn in your relationship sector, prompting you to vocalize and express your promises to each other. This will also help you communicate more maturely, speaking the relationship you know you deserve into existence.
However, if your partner doesn’t agree with you on everything, try not to take everything personally. By August 26, Venus will oppose Chiron in your ninth house of perspective, which could leave you feeling invalidated. But here’s the thing—a healthy relationship doesn’t mean a perfect alignment of your opinions. As long as your values are on the same page, that’s all that matters.
Virgo Weekly Love Horoscope
As this week begins, you may be craving an entirely new experience. As Mars in Virgo forms a trine with Uranus in your adventurous ninth house, you may not feel satisfied with your regularly scheduled programming, and instead, ready to raise the roof. You may even feel inspired to embrace the single life (or do things on your own for a little while, without your partner). And as Virgo season begins on August 22, your confidence and self-love are receiving a majorly exciting boost.
As Venus in your grounded second house forms a trine with Saturn in your practical sixth house on August 23, you may not be in the mood to be swept off your feet just yet. Instead, you may feel inspired to nurture your relationship through practical means. Think of the life you can build together through hard work and perseverance.
However, by August 26, there’s a chance you may have difficulty seeing your lover clearly. As Mercury in Virgo opposes Neptune in your partnership sector, it could feel difficult to feel like you can fully trust where your lover is coming from. Instead of allowing your defenses to flare up, try to believe in love. By August 26, Mercury will trine Pluto in your romantic fifth house, prompting a passionate conversation in which your feelings are encouraged to transform.
Libra Weekly Love Horoscope
As this week begins, you may become aware of your heart’s deepest desires. On August 22, the full moon will rush through your romantic fifth house, inspiring you to tap into your youthful ability to fall in love. When you think of “romance,” what comes to mind? Let this full moon encourage you to invite more of that romance into your life.
In fact, by August 23, you may be discovering ways to create that romance on a long-term basis. As Venus in Libra forms a trine with Saturn in your passionate fifth house, you may realize that romance doesn’t have to burn hot and fast before dying out. You can nurture its flame each day, adding fresh logs of wood to the fire that continues to keep you and your lover warm.
However, by August 26, your fears of rejection may spring to life as Venus opposes Chiron in your seventh house of relationships. This could cause you to distance yourself out of a desire to protect yourself. But as Mercury in your spiritual twelfth house forms a trine with Pluto in your compassionate fourth house, you could let safety and empathy override these fears. Don’t let someone’s feelings toward you dictate your feelings toward yourself.
Scorpio Weekly Love Horoscope
You may desire a feeling of “belonging” from your relationship as this week begins. On August 22, the full moon will shine its light on your fourth house of home and family, revealing where your heart feels most comfortable. You may realize that you want a relationship that makes you feel at home, like you’re exactly where you’re supposed to be. Don’t settle for less.
In fact, by August 23, you have the power to reinforce your relationship with understanding, empathy, and a deep, mutual trust. As Venus in your spiritual twelfth house forms a trine with Saturn in your protective fourth house, you may enjoy a connection with your partner that doesn’t even need to be discussed. You could be in the same room together, sitting in silence and absorbing each other’s presence, feeling more loved than ever before.
However, there’s a chance that blurred boundaries in a relationship could become a problem by August 24, when Mercury in your platonic eleventh house opposes Neptune in your romantic fifth house. You may not feel sure if what you’re feeling is merely lust or something far deeper. Communicating these feelings delicately could lead to surprising developments by August 26, when Mercury forms a triune with Pluto in your talkative third house.
Sagittarius Weekly Love Horoscope
You’re learning how to say what you feel this week. After all, on August 22, a full moon will shine in your third house of communication, bringing your voice to life. An important conversation could take place; a conversation that could quite possibly represent a breakthrough in your relationship. Use your voice and listen when your lover uses theirs.
In fact, speaking your truth could make such a difference not only in your love life, but your social life too. On August 23, Venus in your community-oriented eleventh house will trine Saturn in your chatty third house, providing you with steady energy that could help you forge friendships that last for a long time to come. Some of these friendships could even become romantic relationships.
However, by August 26, Venus will oppose Chiron in your fifth house of self-expression, which could instill doubt about whether your feelings will be reciprocated by someone. Taking charge and believing in yourself could do wonders for your self-esteem, as Mercury in your dominant tenth house forms a trine with Pluto in your grounded second house. Trust in your best qualities—and remember, if they don’t see your beauty, that’s their problem. Someone else absolutely will.
Capricorn Weekly Love Horoscope
You may feel inspired to create a new version of romance in your life by August 22. As Mars in your adventurous ninth house forms a trine with Uranus in your passionate fifth house, you may find yourself attracted to someone completely unexpected. A romantic affair could begin as you meet someone on one of your many adventures. And as the full moon rises in your luxurious second house, you may even feel like getting dolled up, allowing you to look more glamorous than ever.
However, this isn’t necessarily just some summer fling. In fact, on August 23, Venus in your flashy tenth house will trine Saturn in your grounded second house, encouraging you to forge a relationship that’s mature and long-lasting. Let go of the drama and embrace the smooth sailing that comes with choosing the right relationship.
Communication issues could arise by August 24. As Mercury in your ninth house of perspective opposes Neptune in your chatty third house, words could get lost in translation or misinterpreted, which may leave you hearing only what you want to hear. However, by August 26, Mercury will trine Pluto in Capricorn, helping you see through the fog as your intuition is sparked into action.
Aquarius Weekly Love Horoscope
This week is not necessarily about your relationships. It’s about you and your relationship with yourself. As a full moon in Aquarius dawns on the universe as of August 22, you’re gaining a deeper understanding of who you are as a person, refining your image of yourself. You’ve grown so much, and as you change, your relationships are forced to change along with you. Developments in your love life may be underway as you embrace your evolution.
By August 23, your perspective of love and independence will gain strength as Venus in your adventurous ninth house forms a trine with Saturn in Aquarius. This will encourage you to have faith in who you could become. Give yourself permission to focus on your own vision of the future, not necessarily your vision of your relationship’s future. You deserve to grow on your own, both inside and outside of romance.
You may face fears surrounding your ability to communicate your needs and desires by August 26, as Venus opposes Chiron in your talkative third house. But as Mercury in your intimate eighth house forms a trine with Pluto in your healing twelfth house, you may not need all the right words to become closer with your lover. Trust that love, trust, and intuition will take care of it.
Pisces Weekly Love Horoscope
Whoever said intellectual sparring wasn’t a form of flirting? As this week begins, Mars in your partnership sector will trine Uranus in your intellectual third house, which could encourage you to engage in a healthy, yet sexy debate with your lover. However, you might also be in the mood to retreat from the “real” world as the full moon dawns in your spiritual twelfth house. This full moon could bring up your deepest feelings, revealing the emotions you’re harboring within your subconscious.
By August 23, Venus in your intimate eighth house will trine Saturn in your healing twelfth house, allowing you to sort through these feelings and become vulnerable to them. Sharing these feelings with your lover could bring you so much closer and help you let go of the burdens. However, it’s important to remember that your lover can’t solve all your problems. By August 24, Mercury in your relationship sector will oppose Neptune in Pisces, which could romanticize your perspective of how love works.
The week ends with a beautiful opportunity to get to know your lover’s friends. On August 26, Mercury will trine Pluto in your social eleventh house, helping you mingle in a meaningful way and create friendships that are deeper than most.
