From August 18 to 24, 2025, the cosmos orchestrates a week steeped in divine timing, a reminder that everything unfolds exactly when it should. For three zodiac signs, fortune finally knocks, and the key to unlocking it lies in tuning into your feelings and intuition.
On Wednesday, August 20, the Moon joins Venus in Cancer, infusing the days ahead with tenderness, emotional clarity, and the promise of heartfelt connections.
Since the Moon rules emotions and intuition, its influence will be profound, making this the perfect time to slow down, meditate, and create a quiet space to hear the subtle whispers of your inner voice.
Love and opportunity intertwine as the Moon and Venus open doors to romance and prosperity. The very next day, Thursday, August 21, the Moon pairs with Mercury in radiant Leo, sparking breakthroughs, creative expression, and transformative opportunities.
Let your emotions flow freely, trust your instincts, and be ready to act when the signs point toward destiny.
New Moon in Virgo
The week crescendos with the New Moon in Virgo on August 23, ushering in the season of the zodiac’s great healer.
This lunation carries potent manifestation energy, especially since it marks the first of two New Moons in Virgo this year, the second arriving on September 21 as a solar eclipse.
Together, they promise a powerful cycle of renewal and alignment. The message is clear: trust the timing, hold faith in your vision, and remember that patience always draws its reward.
Scorpio
Anything is possible if you choose to believe it, Scorpio. At times, you doubt yourself and question whether what you desire is truly meant for you, especially in the face of current challenges.
But the universe has not forgotten you, nor has it turned its back. It is quietly aligning the pieces in your favor.
This is your moment to trust in your power to create a life overflowing with love, abundance, and fulfillment. Strengthen that belief with daily positive affirmations, and let them embolden you to take risks you might otherwise shy away from.
On Wednesday, August 20, the Moon aligns with Venus in Cancer, casting a luminous influence over your luck, new beginnings, and journeys.
This celestial partnership signals that abundance is within reach if you choose to reach for it. Doors may open for travel, a promising career shift, a move to a new place, or even an unexpected romantic connection.
Venus governs love, beauty, and prosperity, while the Moon shines a light on your innermost truth.
Together, they create a cosmic current that makes chasing your dreams feel far less daunting than leaving them as “what-ifs.” This is the time to leap, not linger.

Sagittarius
Sagittarius, it’s time to step into the driver’s seat of your own destiny. On Thursday, August 21, the Moon and Mercury unite in bold, fiery Leo, urging you to revisit themes that first surfaced at the end of June.
Mercury’s recent retrograde in Leo may have slowed progress, but that pause has a purpose: it’s guiding you toward clarity.
Perhaps you’ve been faced with too many opportunities at once, unsure which path is truly meant for you. This slower pace is a gift, allowing you to tune into the Moon’s intuitive pull and access the wisdom within before making your move.
When the Moon and Mercury meet in Leo, courage and self-trust become your greatest assets.
This is not the time to wait for permission or for someone else to guarantee the outcome. It’s your moment to decide, to follow what feels right in your gut, and to claim your power fully.
By taking charge now, you set the stage for a vibrant new chapter filled with abundance, exciting opportunities, and the kind of luck that finds you when you boldly choose yourself.

Capricorn
Capricorn, slow and steady will serve you best now. As Virgo season begins on August 23, it arrives hand in hand with a powerful New Moon in Virgo, a cosmic alignment that invites you to take action while staying deeply attuned to your inner guidance.
This is a time to shape your plans with care, to lay strong foundations for the dreams you’re ready to manifest.
This New Moon carries special weight. It’s the first of two consecutive New Moons in Virgo, with the second on September 21 arriving as a solar eclipse, promising transformative, life-altering shifts.
The message is clear: there is no need to rush. You have time to refine, perfect, and strengthen your vision before fully launching forward.
Set your intentions with crystal clarity. Know the direction in which the Universe is nudging you, because what you’re building now is more ambitious and more impactful than you may realize.
This first Virgo New Moon is for mapping the route. The weeks that follow will support steady, deliberate progress.
By the time the second New Moon and eclipse arrive, you’ll be fully prepared to step boldly into the life you’ve been working toward—confident, ready, and unstoppable.
