A friendly, blindingly bright sun in Leo trines your ruler, Mars. You’ll glow as bright as a torch, Aries. When Mercury joins the show August 6-20, you will have unchecked energy to use just about any way that you choose. Venus in Cancer from August 8 onward squares you and brings about a few funky moods in your love life.
If single, make most of your contacts early in August while Venus is in buddy sign Gemini until August 8. If partnered, don’t press an issue with your mate this month that has a complicated resolution. Best to wait until Venus enters Leo in early September to take that planned weekend away. By then, passionate energy will be flowing freely from the easy-going trine to your sun.
