Summer might be almost over, but its last month is going to be filled with contemplation and excitement — astrologically speaking. Before heading into individual horoscopes, here’s what’s coming our way this Virgo season, which spans from Aug. 22 to Sept. 22.
The sun enters Virgo on Aug. 22, adding clarity and assertiveness to our lives. Communication planet Mercury, which has been retrograde since Aug. 5 turns direct on Aug. 28 in Leo, ending the miscommunications and misunderstandings that have been causing aggravation and stress.
On Aug. 29, lovelorn Venus enters Libra, bringing tenderness and romance to our relationships.
Uranus begins its retrograde journey in Taurus on Sept. 1, which will last until Jan. 30, 2025. This is a moment in which we are questioning the changes that we are making and sorting through how we want to advance our perspectives to align with the times.
Pluto retrograde re-enters Capricorn on Sept. 1. The last time Pluto was in Capricorn at the end of 2023, we saw changes happening in the world and in our attitudes. We’ll be tested to see if we are ready to commit to this evolution.
The new moon in Virgo falls on Sept. 2, urging us to be more aware and mindful of our goals.
Action planet Mars moves into Cancer on Sept. 4, heightening our passions and emotions.
On Sept. 9, Mercury re-enters Virgo, taking us back to the end of July and asking us to revisit the story from the first half of the retrograde. Now, we can implement the lessons we’ve learned into our lives.
A lunar eclipse in Pisces, the same day as a full moon, occurs on Sept. 17. This magical lunation is pushing us to move towards our dreams.
Below, find out individual horoscopes for your sun sign.
Aries
Things will be moving slowly at the start of Virgo season. As the weeks go by, you’ll find that you are extremely busy with errands, work ventures and personal matters. Give yourself time to emotionally and physically adjust to the upswing.
Taurus
You may be inspired to take on a creative venture that highlights your artistry and talents. To do so, you’ll need to connect with yourself on a deeper level. Take a break — not from work, but from routine. Only then can you get in touch with the voice inside telling you to dream big again.
Gemini
Even though people in your peer group may feel like you’re being antisocial, the truth is that you’re taking time for R&R. You work hard, so it’s pivotal to use the month ahead as a time of rejuvenation and restoration to feel as though you can conquer everything on your plate.
Cancer
It’s never too late to day how you feel — especially when it comes to love. Since you’re often protective, taking big emotional risks might be scary, but it’s but necessary to let others know what is on your mind. Don’t shy away from speaking the truth. It can set you free and elevate your connections to a whole new level. Be brave, Cancer!
Leo
Your finances are in need of organization and care. Seeking guidance from a confidant or advisor before making any major moves will allow you to flourish in the future. Be patient as your bank account grows and evolves in the upcoming weeks.
Virgo
Before you take on more work, make sure that you’re actually able to complete the task. Saying “yes” all the time has brought you lots of exciting projects, but also has depleted your energy. Start saying “no” when asked to take on more than you can chew. Know your limits.
Libra
You want to have a low-key month, so you’re hiding away from situations and people who might bring messiness your way. Be careful not to cut yourself out of social situations that might be fun. Life is all about balance, so push yourself to be social.
Scorpio
Where are you headed? The question has been keeping you up at night — but you finally feel like you have a grasp on an answer. You didn’t stray from the path; you just got a little distracted. With your drive, passion and enthusiasm, there is nothing you can’t achieve.
Sagittarius
Devoting energy to your career in the upcoming weeks will elevate your status. For the past several months, you’ve been trying to attain a promotion or some new energy. Now, the stars are on your side to help you. Keep moving forward.
Capricorn
Center your energy in the weeks ahead. Rather than focusing on external matters, lean into implementing a reflective routine. Meditation and grounding exercises will help you connect to your heart and mind. And with that, you can get through the challenges and hurdles the world throws.
Aquarius
You will be prone to thinking deeply this month — even more deeply than usual. You’ll have a particular focus on personal development and worldly matters alike. It’s all in an effort to keep evolving into a person who makes you proud.
Pisces
You are going to be investing in relationships this month — deepening old ones and forging new ones. Don’t be afraid if this also means turnover in your social circle. Sometimes it’s healthy to trim the relationship tree, even if it’s difficult or uncomfortable. Surround yourself with people who fill you up.
