Libra Horoscope August 2025 – Sally Kirkman



Libra Horoscope August 2025
Turning Points
There’s a significant turning point this month as communication planet Mercury turns direct on the 11th. It’s been an unusually chaotic Mercury retrograde phase since July 18th and you may find that news or information comes to light that’s been hidden.
Mercury turns direct in Leo and your friendship and group sector. Therefore, it’s a positive time to get things moving in these key areas. If you want to improve your social life, the second two weeks of August are the time to launch yourself into new activities.
Plus, the day after Mercury turns direct, the 12th, there’s a glorious Venus-Jupiter conjunction in Cancer, the star sign at the peak of your horoscope. This spells good news for you because Venus is your ruling planet and this combination means the two best planets are side-by-side.
Cancer represents your career and vocation, your status and reputation and this combination could bring a miracle on the work or career front. Use your charm to ensure people know who you are and what you have to offer.
This could coincide with a gift, a celebration or a significant achievement. Trust in the wheel of fortune to turn in your direction.
Venus remains at the peak of your horoscope until the 25th, an ideal time to schmooze other people. Use your network if you’re looking for work or you want or need career advice. You may be in a pivotal role this month and be leading the way for others. Plus, you have expansive Jupiter potentially bringing growth and good fortune to your career sector for the next twelve months.
Leo Season
This is an important month to use your connections for another reason. This is because of what’s happening in fire sign Leo. The Sun’s here until the 22nd, talk planet Mercury is in Leo throughout August and your ruler Venus enters Leo on the 25th.
On the one hand, this promises a social few weeks when you can get out and about and meet up with friends. Yet, it’s beneficial for other areas of your life as well, meeting the right contacts or getting in touch with friends in high places.
Perhaps, someone you know can help you sort out an education, travel or legal issue. Events on or around the 12th & 29th could point the way. New beginnings are on the cards and this may be connected to your partner or someone who offers you a new opportunity.
The air signs are buzzing this month, especially from the 8th to the 10th. What you start or experiment with could open up a new future path. Make the right connections and use technological advancements to your benefit. Playing your part within society also falls under the Leo umbrella.
Traditionally, August is a month to be on holiday but you may prefer to focus on other areas of life, especially your future path and getting ahead.
Virgo Season
During this lively month, there’s a lot going on behind the scenes. As August begins, action planet Mars is completing its journey through Virgo and the most hidden sector of your horoscope.
Then, on the 22nd, the Sun moves into Virgo and this can be a stabilising influence. This is where there’s a New Moon on the 23rd. Take a step back, journal, write down your thoughts and do whatever’s necessary to regain some order and balance in your life.
This is especially important as wild-card Uranus kicks in and squares up to the Sun in Virgo on the 24th. Uranus in Gemini can bring change your way or alter your future path. Where you thought you were heading switches and your journey leads you to a new destination.
Even if you’re on a wild roller-coaster this month, actively slow things down towards the end of August and focus on restoring calm and peace in your life and the lives of others. If you can go on retreat, meditate daily or take some time out, this would be an ideal time to do so.
Your Time
Libra is your star sign and, on the 6th, action planet Mars moves into Libra where it will remain until September 22nd. This is leading the way into Libra season.
When planets are in Libra, you want to create more harmony and peace in your life. It’s an ideal time to consider your personal goals and aims, where you’re heading and why.
Think of August as a month to start balancing those Libra scales, so you feel more in harmony and in flow with life rather than constantly battling or taking on too much.
If you’re a typical Libra, you’re sociable and friendly and with so many planets vying for attention in your friendship sector this month, you would expect your social circle to widen even further. Therefore, take good care of yourself and prioritise your needs, especially if your life is busy.
Do yourself a favour, stop people pleasing and learn when to say no. Mars in Libra is actively encouraging you to focus on your own personal goals and aims.
