Welcome to Virgo Season! With this weekly horoscope, the sun glides into demure Virgo on August 22, motivating us to be considerate and kind. August 23 brings the rare Black Moon in Virgo (this happens during the third new moon in a season with four instead of the usual three). It’s time to manifest our hopes for the last month of summer before the eclipses begin in September. We got this!
Leo
July 23 - August 22
You can easily motivate and set the bar high for yourself — sometimes too high. So many fantastic ideas are racing through your head but you only have time to commit to one. The caveat is that if you do not succeed at first, you might give up when you should be pushing yourself to persevere and work through the obstacles. With your passion, the sky’s the limit. Try to complete the task at hand. Never give up or settle. Once you do that, doubts will occur because you are better than that. Be your own cheerleader and do your best.
Virgo
August 23 - September 22
Lately, it seems like everyone is trauma dumping on you. While you're used to being the one they confide in, the conversations have reached a new level of intensity and it’s taken a lot of your energy. Your life has become so intertwined with theirs that you don’t know where yours begins. As a result, you are burned out. Being that you're emotionally drained from other people’s drama, it’s vital to reconnect with yourself. Focus on activities that are self-soothing and bring you joy. Taking a nice walk in nature will allow you to cleanse your vibe and empower yourself.
Libra
September 23 - October 22
Your philosophy on life is changing. In the past, you ran toward your dreams with gusto and determination; now, you are only looking to attract endeavors that come to you. It’s not that you’re being passive, but you are finding that whatever is meant to be will float in your direction. Trusting the universe is important because it’ll propel you forward and allow you to see that you should never stress. You're receiving what you warrant in due time. As long as you have faith in the process there is no reason for you to worry.
Scorpio
October 23 - November 21
Even Scorpios get the blues. Truthfully, you need TLC from your inner circle and squad because you are struggling to maintain a positive outlook. You're looking at matters through a half-empty glass and could use a pick-me-up. The best source of help is from the people who surround you. They have your back and will do anything to make you smile. The best cure is a slumber party with your BFFs or game night at home with the fam. They’ll make you laugh and forget about your worries. The attention and support from loved ones will do you some good!
Sagittarius
November 22 - December 21
Just because you’re a free spirit and often do your own thing doesn't mean it hurts any less when you're not included in a group activity. You may feel the sting when a friend excludes you from an event, making you feel like an afterthought. You’re experiencing FOMO and wish they had been more considerate of your presence. However, they have a different version of the story and want to explain it, which could lead to an argument. The bottom line is that you're entitled to your feelings, no matter the intention behind the actions that hurt you.
Capricorn
December 22 - January 19
You give so much adoration to others and require little in return — until now. After endless giving, you want some affection, too. Being breadcrumbed by your boo hits hard when you see how much your friends are getting from their significant others. Now, you’re flexing your emotions and ensuring your partner hears you. If they can’t reciprocate, you should discuss and contemplate the future. The answer isn’t to harden your heart, but to have a sharper mind to attain your ship goals. You shouldn’t have to fight for the relationship and dynamic that you are worthy of.

Aquarius
January 20 - February 18
You might hear that your friends are talking about you behind your back, and that makes you feel salty. Rightfully so, you’ll opt to confront them and meet the matter head on. The only issue is that you may not get the response you’re hoping for because everyone's hiding behind their false intentions. Speaking up is the only thing that will make you feel better so don't push away your feelings — let them be known. If these members of your crew can’t offer an apology, then you should 100% put them on ice.
Pisces
February 19 - March 20
Being that you're romantic by nature, it's not surprising that love is on your brain this week. Even though you might be consumed with your relationship, it may put a strain on the other commitments in your life. There is a simple remedy to your problem: do everything on your long laundry list with your crush. Bring your partner along for the ride so you don't have to do it alone. Think of this as a casual way of becoming closer through mundane tasks that you don’t want to do alone.
Aries
March 21 - April 19
It’s been a minute since you’ve taken the time to decide whether you should kiss and make up with the pal you’ve been beefing with. At this point, you are considering dropping the issue and moving on. But can you leave the past behind you? If you’re never going to rehash matters, do what is best for you. If you still are being messy and have to assert yourself, be forewarned that the situation can take on a bigger life than you thought. Try to keep it chill and not make the reconciliation an opportunity to muster up old negativity.
Taurus
April 20 - May 20
We all have our emotional triggers and they should be dignified by those who are our friends. However, you're finding that some of your so-called frenemies are purposefully making you rethink matters that have scarred you, knowing that you’ve done your hardest to move on and mend. The best way to handle their dragging of you is to surround yourself with things that are amazing in your life. This could be the people that are your ride or die or even your pets that unconditionally support you. You deserve to be able to be at a high, not a low.
Gemini
May 21 - June 20
A little flirting here and there never hurt anyone — especially you, Gemini. Being that you're the social butterfly of the zodiac, and need to express yourself when you feel a certain way with those you care about, cheekiness is always on the table. This week you're sharing your sentiments with someone you've recently encountered, which is making your heartbeat a little faster. They may be a smoother talker than you are. Although you don’t know if you should trust their sleek words, you might find yourself falling for some of their complimentary lines. Enjoy the trip down the rabbit hole!
Cancer
June 21 - July 22
You are acting on a whim, which might be confusing for those who are your close friends because you are usually regimented and adhere to a routine. It’s not that they aren’t feeling your impulsive vibes, but they are unsure how to keep up with your ever-changing moods. The change within is because you have so much on your plate that it's hard for you to maintain a schedule and make plans that you can stick with. Participate in the group chat to keep everyone posted and be pragmatic about your ability to meet up when you say you will.
