In this post, I’m sharing the top six astrological transits for August 2025 that will bring noticeable shifts in your life. I use the sidereal zodiac for all my predictions, focusing on mundane astrology—the general energies everyone will feel worldwide. To understand how these transits affect you personally, you’ll need your sidereal rising sign to determine which house these events fall in. If that sounds tricky, email the word "recipe" to makelovewithastrology.com or through the link in my YouTube bio, and I’ll help you figure it out. Let’s dive into the cosmic forecast!
1. Mars Transits into Virgo – July 28, 2025
Mars, the planet of action, ambition, and energy, moves into Virgo, the sign of problem-solving, technology, and precision. This transit fuels a global surge in fixing what’s broken—think pharmaceutical breakthroughs, aggressive corporate takeovers, or legal battles involving AI and technology. Mars in Virgo is a warrior for solutions, so expect heated debates and progress in fields like medicine, law, and mechanics.
Personal Impact: This is your moment to tackle what’s not working in your life. Focus on health, technology (like fixing your computer or car), or resolving disputes with friends and partners. Channel this argumentative energy into constructive solutions. Set a reminder for July 28 to take action!
2. Full Moon in Capricorn – August 9, 2025
A powerful full moon at 22 degrees of Capricorn lights up the sky, bringing a moment of manifestation and awareness. Capricorn rules endurance, career, social status, and long-term goals—think mountains, marathons, and professional titles like doctor or lawyer. Globally, businesses thrive, promotions abound, and social climbers shine.
Personal Impact: This is your chance to level up in the area of life ruled by Capricorn in your chart. You’ve laid a strong foundation; now it’s time to claim your reward. Whether it’s a promotion, a new title, or a step toward long-term success, embrace delayed gratification for lasting results. Mark August 9 to celebrate your achievements!
3. Venus Conjunct Jupiter in Gemini – August 11, 2025
Venus, the planet of pleasure and relationships, joins Jupiter, the planet of wisdom and expansion, at 19 degrees of Gemini. This joyful transit in the communicative, chaotic sign of Gemini sparks global changes in money, social media, and spirituality. Expect buzz around new crypto laws, a trending social media platform, or discussions blending sensuality and spirituality—Venus as the "king of demons" meets Jupiter, the "king of angels."
Personal Impact: In your personal life, this is a fantastic day to explore new pleasures, relationships, or spiritual practices. Communicate about love, try a new recipe, or adopt a pet (I’m eyeing a cat myself!). Check which house Gemini rules in your chart to see where this abundant energy flows. Circle August 11 for a dose of joy!
4. Mercury Retrograde Ends in Cancer – August 11, 2025
Mercury retrograde in Cancer has been a tough one, disrupting our sense of peace, home, and emotional security. This transit likely stirred chaos, making it hard to feel safe or express vulnerability, especially for mothers. When Mercury goes direct on August 11, relief arrives, with the post-shadow period wrapping up by August 25.
Personal Impact: Reflect on how you can restore safety and emotional security in your life. Who helps you feel safe? Where do you need to express your feelings? Look to the house ruled by Cancer in your chart to pinpoint where this chaos has been and how to move forward. Celebrate August 11 as a turning point!
5. Sun Transits into Leo – August 16, 2025
The Sun, ruler of our soul and vitality, enters its home sign of Leo, where it shines brightest. This transit highlights leadership, creativity, and joy, with global attention on strong leaders, artistic expression, and even gold markets. Leo rules children, fun, and self-expression, making this a vibrant time worldwide.
Personal Impact: Where do you need to shine your light? Reconnect with your inner child, express yourself through art or music, and embrace your sovereignty. Check the house Leo rules in your chart to find where you can radiate confidence and joy. Set a reminder for August 16 to let your inner lion roar!
6. New Moon in Leo – August 23, 2025
A new moon at 6 degrees of Leo marks a deep, internal moment of intention-setting. Unlike the full moon’s outward expression, this new moon is about feeling your inner desires without sharing them yet. Leo’s energy of joy, freedom, and self-expression invites you to plant seeds for your soul’s deepest wishes.
Personal Impact: Set an iPhone reminder for August 23 to connect with your inner child and reflect on what makes you feel free and sovereign. This is a time to nurture your dreams quietly, knowing they’ll bloom in six months during the Leo full moon. Check Leo’s house in your chart to see where this wish takes root.

I was burning myself out working the 9 to 5 grind in Los Angeles, thinking I was gonna find happiness by hustling for others and making their dreams come true while ignoring my own.
I knew guiding people with astrology was my true passion, but never had the confidence to turn it into a career.
So I took a chance, invested in myself and now…
