Your Weekly Horoscopes: August 24 to 30, 2025

it's world wide web kind of aspect

If you’re feeling on the precipice of a great change: you’re right on time. On the 28th, Neptune—planet of idealism—forms a supportive sextile with Uranus, planet of abrupt shifts. This connection between two outer planets is one of spiritual breakthroughs and futuristic dreaming. The last time these two planets formed an aspect was in 1993, the year the World Wide Web was launched into the public domain. This is an aspect of grand visions becoming reality. 

So how does one meet this moment? I think the answer is to lean into love and connection.

Love planet Venus moves into bold and dramatic Leo on the 25th, and forms aspects with taskmaster Saturn, along with Uranus, Neptune and transformational Pluto in the days that follow. This is a week when many things come to a head: grand gestures, affirming commitments, obsessive crushes and shifting priorities. It’s a time to shoot your shot as well as assess your relationship values. Pay attention to what you’re initiating and what’s being launched into the world around you. Even the smallest shifts could be definitive for a long time to come.

(Horoscopes follow for each sign. If you know your rising sign, reading for that sign too will provide further insight.)

Aries (March 21 - April 19)

Pay attention to how and with whom you’re communicating this week. The people you surround yourself with are vital to your success and happiness. Notice where your energy is being drained then also notice who lights you up. How can you rearrange your schedule to prioritize the connections that leave you happy and satisfied? Also, on a mundane level, it’s a great week to go through emails and unsubscribe from anything that makes you cringe when it hits your inbox.

This week’s mantra: “Declutter.”

Taurus (April 20 - May 20)

Your home life gets revitalized this week as your ruling planet Venus returns to Leo on the 25th, encouraging you to spruce up your space. As you tidy up and rearrange, make sure you’re making as much room for work as you are for rest. You’ve experienced a lot of stress or grief this year around something that was very much out of your control. As things settle down, it’s important to budget extra time and resources for healing.

This week’s mantra: “Safe.”

Gemini (May 21 - June 20)

This is an electrifying week for you, Gemini. The past few years have brought many spiritual breakthroughs. Old friends may not recognize the version of you whose hair is longer and clothes are looser. Letting your freak flag fly is not only freeing, it’s what will attract new friends and alliances that will change your life. When you act as your unabashed full self, you can’t help but magnetize connections.

This week’s mantra: “Free.”

Cancer (June 21 - July 22)

This year has brought breakthroughs for your career and public image, along with many frustrations in that realm. Every productivity win has been counterbalanced by a forced meeting with your overbearing boss. What’s been tricky for you to accept is that sometimes these setbacks and frustrations are out of your control. This week brings a sweet opportunity that allows you to enjoy the journey rather than focusing on the destination.

This week's mantra: “Wander.”

Leo (July 23 - August 22)

Though your birthday season is over, this week brings a huge ego boost as Venus, planet of love and beauty, enters your sign on the 25th. This transit is one to take advantage of if you’ve been needing a cut, color or wardrobe refresh. Lean into brighter tones and bolder makeup choices. This week also brings some exciting revelations for travel, education and building community.

This week’s mantra: “Explore.”

Virgo (August 23 - September 23)

Friends are pushing you to have a big birthday celebration, but you’re much more focused on laying low and saving money this year. You’re realizing that a big dream you have is going to require focused effort and some major resources. This is a good week to treat yourself in a low-key way: trying a new recipe or DIYing a spa day at home. You may also get an exciting work opportunity that requires you to block off an evening to organize and plan.

This week’s mantra: “Adjust.”

Libra (September 23 - October 21)

It’s been a difficult summer for your friendships as you’ve drifted away from communities that no longer serve you. This week, your ruling planet Venus moves into your friendship sector though, bringing opportunity to connect, especially in the realms of beauty, art and creativity. The dreams you have to travel and teach are going to require strategic partnerships. Who inspires you to innovate?

This Week's Mantra: "Motivation."

Scorpio (October 22 - November 21)

Though part of you wants to keep hibernating, this week’s astrology is pushing you to step into the spotlight. Venus moves into Leo on the 25th, and for you, this is a transit for networking, bold leadership and increasing your visibility. This is also a great time to rearrange your workspace, adjust your fitness routine, and figure out financial accountability. Keeping your workflow and resources up to date is an easy way to feel more successful. 

This week’s mantra: “Build.”

Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21)

This week’s spiritual breakthroughs for the collective bring an interesting download for your romantic life. What you’re looking for when it comes to love and partnership is changing rapidly. You want structure and stability, but you also want ease. This is a great week to plan a travel or learning opportunity with a lover. It’s also an excellent time to get serious about one of your hobbies. It’s time to take your relationship—or your knife skills—to the next level.

This week’s mantra: “Enjoy.”

Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)

Everyone around you seems focused on making big moves and getting ahead, but you’re better off focusing on your personal life and foundations. What you want in your home and family life is rapidly shifting and taking shape, and you need to adjust your routines and schedule to reach your goals. This is also a great week to deal with debts or apply for a loan. Being well resourced is about making the most of what you have.

This week’s mantra: “Meaning.”

Cheeky image of a Black woman with blue hair on a light blue background. She's holding blue water in her palms, which is bubbling up and taking shape as her hair.

Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)

Venus moves into Leo and your partnership sector on the 25th making this a great week to lean on your closest connections for support. If you’re looking for love, this is the perfect time to revamp your dating profile or ask out that cute neighbor you always run into at the bar. You’re not going to find love or advance your creative career if you’re afraid of putting yourself out there.

This week’s mantra: “Share.”

Pisces (February 19 - March 20)

A reality check about your finances put a damper on celebrations this summer. But this week brings some empowering financial knowledge that leaves you more confident in your foundations. You may not have a lot, but you’re on the path to success. This is also a great week to take advantage of being everyone’s favorite coworker or service provider. Ask for favors and get some relief from the daily grind.

This week’s mantra: “Relax.”
