Overview for this Month: Taurus (All)
August 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Taurus:
August brings a focus on home and family life and your personal world, dear Taurus, with plenty of opportunities to attend to your duties as well as express and enjoy yourself. With Mercury retrograde until the 11th, you’ll be dealing with minor problems and delays, which can undoubtedly slow you down. Fortunately, the pace doesn’t interfere too much with your enjoyment.
The month is strong for pouring special attention into your home and personal life, but it also keeps you well-connected with others and with your creative spirit as well. Mars continues its playful, animated transit of your creative and romantic sector until the 6th, and the Sun enters this same area of your solar chart on the 22nd, for example. As well, Venus spends much of August (until the 25th) in your communications sector, keeping you connected and mentally engaged.
Keep in mind that any backtracking you need to do until the 11th may contribute to the strength of plans and future ventures-ultimately, it’s not lost time! There can be some important renovations and improvements in your home or with family relationships. This month is all about self-nurturing, fulfilling comfort and safety needs, and connecting with loved ones, which can lead to significant personal growth and self-improvement.
From the 6th onward, Mars energizes your work and health sector, motivating you to get on top of your daily routines. You may be pouring a lot more energy into organizing your space, pursuing fitness or other wellness methods, and providing services or handling your work/chores during this cycle.
The Full Moon on the 9th draws your strong attention to your performance, career, reputation, or responsibilities. You’ve been particularly absorbed in your personal life these days, and now you’re reminded of the outside world! If your personal and professional lives have fallen out of balance, this is a time for recognizing the need for better management of your time, energy, and focus. You are reminded of your responsibilities, commitments, and need for accomplishment.
Mercury’s retrograde lifts on the 11th, unclogging information and contributing to a sense that you’re moving forward. In fact, you’re likely to enjoy some nice opportunities to expand your knowledge, connections, or mental interests in August. There can be a warm reception for your ideas now, test results may come through, or news you were waiting for arrives and pleases you. You could feel entirely inspired to pursue a line of study or make contact, and it’s likely to feel good to learn something new or share your ideas and connect with others and the information you need. Success tends to come through word of mouth or bright ideas. Promotion or publicity can be particularly favorable or prosperous.
The Sun moves into harmony with your sign on the 22nd, encouraging you to express your individuality and pursue your joy. A satisfying creative project or pastime can help you release stress and tension. A romantic attraction may motivate you. You’re interested in growing and improving your creative pursuits and connections. A shift from a focus on your inner world to a more creative, interactive period is occurring now–this is all about pursuing your passions.
With a New Moon on the 23rd occurring close to a Sun-Uranus square, you can feel challenged to break out of a rut or pattern that’s prevented you from growing and changing. It’s possible that uncertainty about your income or feelings of security can interfere with your desire to have fun. Or, you may want to break free from old ways of doing things but are unsure about going ahead. Disruptions have a way of pulling up buried frustrations, and these can be highly revealing. For best results, take your time with decisions and get in better touch with your intuition. This New Moon can pave the way for new approaches to enjoying and expressing yourself.
You’re likely to enjoy good opportunities to expand, strengthen, and enhance family relationships. You may be itching to put a job, home, or domestic project into motion, and good energy is with you for practical accomplishment, particularly in these life departments. You want to be productive! You’re not afraid to take on an intellectual task or demanding work, and this attitude works in your favor.
Being open to different ways to manage your money, things, valuables, or attitude toward the past and attachments can significantly improve your life. Liberating shifts in attitude allow you to experiment with different ways of making money. Problem-solving comes far more quickly and intuitively in the second half of August. You’re applying practical wisdom to your business while also tapping into your spirit for innovation, and the results are excellent.

Taurus (Born April 21 to 30) and Taurus Ascendant from 0 to 10 degrees Taurus:
August 2025 Taurus Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
August 2025
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until August 22nd:
The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar fourth house. This is a period of recharge, of getting in touch with your innermost feelings, of connecting with your roots, and of spending more time and energy on home and family. Home and family matters capture your attention and are a strong source of pride now. It’s a time when worldly matters are not as important to you.
Use this energy to find ways to improve your family relations and your home environment. During this heart-warming cycle, you would do best to allow yourself to explore your inner needs so that you can nurture yourself and others in a healthy, growth-oriented manner, in preparation for more outgoing times to come.
From August 22nd forward:
The Sun illuminates your solar fifth house now. After a period of “nesting”, you are coming out of your shell, ready to perform and to express yourself creatively. This is a very playful period of the year, when you are inspired creatively and emotionally. After a period of self-protectiveness, you are now more spontaneous and more willing to take risks. You take more pride than usual in your creations, your love affairs, your children, and your hobbies. Pleasure and amusement play an important role in your search for freedom of self-expression now. Show off your best colors!
You want others to take notice, and you are more sensitive to whether people appreciate you. More than any time of the year, this is the cycle in which you focus on having fun, enjoying romance, and expressing yourself creatively. Your hobbies, leisure time, moments spent with children, gaming time, and so forth, all come into focus at this time of year.
This is a cycle in which you find joy in expressing who you are–when your “inner child” comes out to play. This is a time when you are more flirtatious than usual, and when you might take a few risks in life–not only gambling with games but with life itself. You might be a bit of a showman at this time. You are likely feeling good in general, and you tend to spread the joy.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until the 25th:
Venus continues to play in your solar third house during this period, indicating a more light-hearted, curious, and intellectual approach to love and pleasure, as well as a more easygoing communicative style.
During this cycle, you are especially charming in your communications. Your words are soothing, and you tend to use words to smooth over problems that you see around you. You are mostly cheerful in your approach to others, and perhaps somewhat intellectual.
Essentially, you are quite companionable during this cycle. You enjoy talking about what interests you, and you see value in the exchange of ideas. Sometimes this transit brings benefit through siblings, communications, or short trips. Good companionship is as equally important as romance to you during this cycle.
You prefer an intellectual, communicative, and witty partner just now, and your powers of attraction increase through expressing these types of qualities. You are most attracted to wit, cheerfulness, and verbal rapport, and you are especially good at mediating conflicts now. If you were to begin a romance or friendship during this cycle, it would likely be quite light-hearted.
From the 25th forward:
Venus warms your solar fourth house now. During this cycle, you are especially fond of the life of the home and family. You are more receptive and gentle on a romantic level, and tend to be sentimental or nostalgic.
You may particularly value the aesthetics in and around your home during this period. If things are out of whack on the home front, you will do whatever you can to create a peaceful and stable atmosphere.
In relationships, loyalty and sensitivity are more important to you than typically. You might focus on ways to earn money in or from your home. This is a calming influence–a time when simple pleasures most appeal.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Mercury is retrograde from July 18th to August 11th:
All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of communications with lovers or children, and regarding financial affairs, because Mercury rules these areas of your life. Your judgment with regards to personal finances (Gemini-ruled for you) as well as romantic partners and creative endeavors may not be up to par just now, so do avoid “signing on the dotted line”. Speculation is not advised during this cycle.
Occurring in your solar fourth house this time, extra care should be exercised when it comes to family relations, real estate matters, and domestic issues. Be as non-judgmental as you can with family members. It may be challenging to keep a healthy perspective regarding deeply personal matters and family. Family members may be on edge, or appear to be. Home repairs may not turn out as expected. Try to put off major decision- making with regards to home improvement, moving, and family matters for the time being. New initiatives surrounding home and property are best left for a better time, but reworking and reorganizing your home can be especially fruitful now.
From August 11th forward, information unclogs.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until the 6th:
Mars continues to energize your solar fifth house. This brings increased energy and enthusiasm to romance, child-rearing, and creative or recreational endeavors. It can also bring some strife to these areas of your world in some cases. For the most part, however, a romance could pick up pace, you are self-motivated and inspired on creative and expressive levels, and your self-confidence is well-received by others during this cycle. You are more willing to take little risks and you are competitive in a mostly friendly way. In your enthusiasm to take the lead, try to be sensitive to and respectful of others’ needs.
From the 6th forward:
Mars animates and energizes your solar sixth house. You have more energy for work and your daily routines tend to speed up during this transit. Perhaps you have a larger workload than usual. It’s a great time to take charge of your health. You have much energy at your disposal to pick up (or step up) a health and physical activity program. It might be hard for you to work with others in a harmonious manner during this transit, and disputes with co-workers are possible. If you are feeling especially angry, frustrated, or restless, it would be wise to find little projects and things to do so that you can channel excess energy constructively. If health is affected, fevers or infections are more likely.

Taurus (Born May 1 to 10) and Taurus Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Taurus:
August 2025 Taurus Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
August 2025
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
All month:
With the Sun spotlighting your house of family and home, these areas are your instinctive focus during this period. Your family, home, property concerns, roots, and heritage come into focus and become a source of pride. You are likely quite preoccupied with feelings of security and your inner experiences. This is a time when you send down roots and seek a feeling of belonging. You could be thrust into a position of leadership on the home front.
Ego confrontations with family members are possible now, but the best way to handle this energy is to do your best to strengthen your relationship with your family and your home base. This is a time to do what you can to build trust in your family life and a strong foundation within yourself so that regardless of what you meet in the outside world over the next months, you have a secure place to return to. Besides spending more time tending to domestic affairs, the focus can be on cultivating and nourishing the inner foundations that support you and your growth. This is a time to collect yourself–to fill your well, so to speak.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until the 8th:
Venus continues to grace your solar second house during this period. You might receive gifts or bonuses now, or you find much comfort in what you already own and have. You may be a little extravagant with money for the time being, as your desire for luxury and comfort items is increased now, and this is something to watch for. When it comes to love, you value those who make you feel comfortable and secure.
From August 8th forward:
With Venus moving through your solar third house during this period, you are mostly cheerful in your approach to others, and perhaps somewhat intellectual, during this transit. Essentially, you are quite companionable now. You enjoy talking about what interests you, and you find great value in the exchange of ideas. Sometimes this transit brings benefit through siblings, communications, or short trips. During this period, you are most attracted to wit, cheerfulness, and verbal rapport. You are especially good at mediating conflicts. Smoothing over differences using your diplomacy skills figures now.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Mercury is retrograde from July 18th to August 11th:
All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of communications with lovers or children, and regarding financial affairs, because Mercury rules these areas of your life.

From August 11th forward, information unclogs.
From August 20th forward:
Mercury continues to transit your solar fourth house. Your thoughts tend to revolve around personal matters, especially family, home, and domestic issues. You enjoy, more than usual, discussions and stories about the past and about family.
You are more rational and objective when it comes to your relationships with those close to you, so it is, in fact, a good time to open up discussions with family. There can be increased activities in and around the home during this cycle. You are not as interested in worldly matters and career as you are in your personal life for the time being.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage

Taurus (Born May 11 to 21) AND Taurus Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Taurus:
August 2025 Taurus Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
August 2025
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until August 12th:
The Sun continues to highlight your solar third house–a time of the year in which you are most likely to be a “busy bee”. Communications, short trips, errand-running, and general busy-ness feature now. You could have a finger in many pies, so to speak, as your curiosity is piqued by a larger variety of things than usual. Used well, this could be a period in which you come up with solutions to a number of problems. You are more inclined to take pride in your intellectual accomplishments and/or your ability to socialize and make connections.
From August 12th forward:
With the Sun spotlighting your house of family and home, these areas are your instinctive focus during this period. Your family, home, property concerns, roots, and heritage come into focus and become a source of pride. You are likely quite preoccupied with feelings of security and your inner experiences. This is a time when you send down roots and seek a feeling of belonging. You could be thrust into a position of leadership on the home front.

This is a time to collect yourself–to fill your well, so to speak.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until the 16th:
Venus continues to grace your solar second house during this period. You might receive gifts or bonuses now, or you find much comfort in what you already own and have. You may be a little extravagant with money for the time being, as your desire for luxury and comfort items is increased now, and this is something to watch for. When it comes to love, you value those who make you feel comfortable and secure.
From August 17th forward:
With Venus moving through your solar third house during this period, you are mostly cheerful in your approach to others, and perhaps somewhat intellectual, during this transit. Essentially, you are quite companionable now. You enjoy talking about what interests you, and you find great value in the exchange of ideas. Sometimes this transit brings benefit through siblings, communications, or short trips. During this period, you are most attracted to wit, cheerfulness, and verbal rapport. You are especially good at mediating conflicts. Smoothing over differences using your diplomacy skills figures now.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Mercury is retrograde from July 18th to August 11th:
All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of communications with lovers or children, and regarding financial affairs, because Mercury rules these areas of your life. Your judgment with regards to personal finances (Gemini-ruled for you) as well as romantic partners and creative endeavors may not be up to par just now, so do avoid “signing on the dotted line”. Speculation is not advised during this cycle.
Occurring in your solar third house this time, extra care should be exercised when it comes to composing letters, emails, making phone calls, and with communications in general. There may be the need to revisit old, nagging issues with siblings or neighbors, errands could go wrong, you might have trouble getting from point A to point B (example, transportation problems), emails or letters get lost, and so forth. Idle chit- chatting during this period may have repercussions! People might be misunderstanding your words. You may be forgetful during this cycle, and it makes sense to allow yourself extra time to get to appointments, if they are not cancelled in the first place! It would also be wise to double-check your work and communications before sending them off.
From August 11th forward, information unclogs, and these matters move forward.
Until the 27th:
Mercury continues to move through your solar third house. Mercury feels right at home in the third house. Your mind is especially inquisitive during this cycle, when learning, short trips, and other forms of communication and making connections, appeal strongly. Some are fidgety or nervous during this cycle, perhaps due to increased errand-running, phone calls, or information overload. Others enjoy the challenge of tackling a variety of subjects.
As well, talking, writing, and studying can be good ways to handle stress. It’s a great time to pick up information from your environment and the people in it. Your mind is often distracted, particularly when required to stick to routine, so this is not the best transit for focusing on one task or project. You might spend a lot of time in your car making short frequent trips, running errands, communicating with siblings and neighbors, and visiting friends and relatives.
From the 28th forward:
Mercury moves through your solar fourth house. This is a time during which you can enjoy increased powers of concentration. You may require solitude in order to get mental work done during this cycle. Your memory is more retentive than usual, and your thoughts often turn to personal matters, family, and loved ones. You might particularly enjoy discussions about your early life, the past, or family matters during this cycle. In fact, it’s a great time to open up conversations with loved ones, as you are more rational when it comes to personal matters now.
Your mind often wanders to domestic concerns, and issues surrounding your home, family, and personal past. On the other hand, this transit sometimes indicates an especially busy, and perhaps hectic, period on the domestic scene. For example, you might take home work or find that people drop by your home often during this cycle.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
All month:
Mars continues to energize your solar fifth house. This brings increased energy and enthusiasm to romance, child-rearing, and creative or recreational endeavors. It can also bring some strife to these areas of your world in some cases. For the most part, however, a romance could pick up pace, you are self-motivated and inspired on creative and expressive levels, and your self-confidence is well-received by others during this cycle. You are more willing to take little risks and you are competitive in a mostly friendly way. In your enthusiasm to take the lead, try to be sensitive to and respectful of others’ needs.

Keep in mind that any backtracking you need to do until the 11th may contribute to the strength of plans and future ventures-ultimately, it’s not lost time! There can be some important renovations and improvements in your home or with family relationships. This month is all about self-nurturing, fulfilling comfort and safety needs, and connecting with loved ones, which can lead to significant personal growth and self-improvement.
From the 6th onward, Mars energizes your work and health sector, motivating you to get on top of your daily routines. You may be pouring a lot more energy into organizing your space, pursuing fitness or other wellness methods, and providing services or handling your work/chores during this cycle.
The Full Moon on the 9th draws your strong attention to your performance, career, reputation, or responsibilities. You’ve been particularly absorbed in your personal life these days, and now you’re reminded of the outside world! If your personal and professional lives have fallen out of balance, this is a time for recognizing the need for better management of your time, energy, and focus. You are reminded of your responsibilities, commitments, and need for accomplishment.
Mercury’s retrograde lifts on the 11th, unclogging information and contributing to a sense that you’re moving forward. In fact, you’re likely to enjoy some nice opportunities to expand your knowledge, connections, or mental interests in August. There can be a warm reception for your ideas now, test results may come through, or news you were waiting for arrives and pleases you. You could feel entirely inspired to pursue a line of study or make contact, and it’s likely to feel good to learn something new or share your ideas and connect with others and the information you need. Success tends to come through word of mouth or bright ideas. Promotion or publicity can be particularly favorable or prosperous.
The Sun moves into harmony with your sign on the 22nd, encouraging you to express your individuality and pursue your joy. A satisfying creative project or pastime can help you release stress and tension. A romantic attraction may motivate you. You’re interested in growing and improving your creative pursuits and connections. A shift from a focus on your inner world to a more creative, interactive period is occurring now–this is all about pursuing your passions.
With a New Moon on the 23rd occurring close to a Sun-Uranus square, you can feel challenged to break out of a rut or pattern that’s prevented you from growing and changing. It’s possible that uncertainty about your income or feelings of security can interfere with your desire to have fun. Or, you may want to break free from old ways of doing things but are unsure about going ahead. Disruptions have a way of pulling up buried frustrations, and these can be highly revealing. For best results, take your time with decisions and get in better touch with your intuition. This New Moon can pave the way for new approaches to enjoying and expressing yourself.
You’re likely to enjoy good opportunities to expand, strengthen, and enhance family relationships. You may be itching to put a job, home, or domestic project into motion, and good energy is with you for practical accomplishment, particularly in these life departments. You want to be productive! You’re not afraid to take on an intellectual task or demanding work, and this attitude works in your favor.
Being open to different ways to manage your money, things, valuables, or attitude toward the past and attachments can significantly improve your life. Liberating shifts in attitude allow you to experiment with different ways of making money. Problem-solving comes far more quickly and intuitively in the second half of August. You’re applying practical wisdom to your business while also tapping into your spirit for innovation, and the results are excellent.

About Our Monthly Horoscopes:
Our detailed monthly horoscopes are designed to reveal and interpret the current transits of the Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars in your solar chart.
Because these energies or transits do not unfold neatly into any given calendar month (many transits carry forward from one month to the next), you will find some of the energies continue from the previous month. For example, the Sun might transit the second house of your solar chart from June 21 to July 22, so that you will find a similar interpretation for this transit in both June and July’s horoscope. This is normal and expected. Transits don’t change because the calendar month changes.
These monthly horoscopes also include an overview paragraph, as well as other energies specific to the month, such as retrogrades, eclipses, or major outer planet transits.
The horoscopes are divided into three groups or decans, and the differences between the groups are subtle in parts and large in other parts! For those who prefer a whole sign approach to horoscopes, simply read the first decanate regardless of your birthdate.
