August 6, 2025 - This Week in Astrology

Wednesday:

Action-oriented Mars moves into diplomatic Libra (through Sept 22). You might feel the urge to act, but you’ll get further by seeking balance, compromise, and a bit of finesse. Think: less bulldozing, more bridge-building.

Friday:

Mars forms a trine to Uranus — perfect for fast action and flashes of genius.

But later in the day, Mars runs into a wall with a tough opposition to  Saturn. This is a classic push-pull. Mars says “go!” and Saturn says “slow your roll.”

Feeling frustrated? It's okay to pause. Take a breath. Give your emotions some space before charging ahead.

Saturday:

Full Moon in Aquarius early morning. This one’s about the collective — friends, networks, community, and the bigger picture.

Check where it lands in your chart — that’s where the spotlight is.

Example: For me, it’s sitting right on top of my natal Chiron (the wounded healer). Oof. Old wounds around belonging could resurface. I’m sitting with that.

Later on, Mars opposes Neptune the dissolver. You might feel extra sensitive. Don’t force anything. If your gut says “step back,” listen. You don’t have to have it all figured out right now.

Sending you love and gratitude.
