WEEK OF August 25 - 31, 2025
Security is sexy! On Monday, August 25, Venus slides out of your sign and into Leo, lighting up your second house of tangible pleasures and practical delights—oh yeah, and money, too. Over the next month, someone could appear who makes you feel genuinely alluring—and not because they’re flashing wads of cash. Keeper potential shows in kindness, generosity, a secure attachment style and zero tolerance for head games. If a casual connection has felt like it’s been dragging its feet, Venus in proud Leo pushes you to either turn up the heat or let it go before it wastes more of your time. Singles who know they want a real relationship have an opportunity to get savvier at spotting commitment-phobes between now and September 19. Couples get a boost, too, since this transit rewards noticing the little joys you share—spooning on the couch, lingering over coffee—and doing more of those things as if your bond depended on it.
But before Venus can find her rhythm in Leo and your grounded second house, she immediately locks into three outer-planet aspects that bring depth and definition to love and security. Monday’s fire trine between Venus and Saturn in your ambitious tenth house puts long-term stability front and center. Conversations about commitment could take a practical turn, centering on what it really takes to build something lasting together. Tuesday’s trine to Neptune, also in your tenth, softens the edges of those talks, infusing them with inspiration and heart. A shared dream or vision for the future could bring you closer, blending romance with purpose in a way that feels exciting AND sustainable. Then on Wednesday, Venus faces off with Pluto in your eighth house of intimacy and power, shining a light on deeper dynamics around trust, merging and vulnerability. Old fears or control patterns may rise to the surface, revealing where bonds need rebalancing—or whether it’s time to let go. Venus’s tour through Leo and this week’s trio of aspects remind you that when your values align, passion isn’t fleeting—it’s the foundation for everything you build.
This Sunday, the waxing quarter moon in energetic Sagittarius nudges you toward motion. Ride your Peloton, unroll your yoga mat, hike a nearby trail: whatever it takes to get your body moving. It’s not just good for you physically. Regular movement supports mental clarity and emotional resilience. For your home-centric, comfort-oriented sign, this can feel like a harsh departure from cozy routines. Don’t force extremes—let the lunar energy guide you and increase intensity gradually. (After all, the moon is your cosmic ruler!) Pay attention to the fuel you’re giving yourself. Keep nuts, protein bars and slower-burning foods on hand and reach for them when you sense your blood sugar dipping.
