Today, Tuesday, August 4
Today the Moon crosses Aries, your house of money and what you own. The Moon is at last quarter, so let go of what this month is done with, and do it exactly there. With Saturn retrograde, old homework returns for review; whatever you skipped is easier the second time. Look at one number honestly; it will behave better once seen.
This week, August 3 to 9
A week with no doors slamming: the Moon travels quietly between chapters. Mars keeps working your house of home and family, and that is where your traction is. No personal planet is moving backwards: what you start this week walks in a straight line.
This month, August 2026
The Sun spends the month in Leo, lighting your house of work, health and routines: that is the month's stage. On the 12th, the new moon in Leo opens your house of work, health and routines: place one small, real beginning there. It is also an eclipse, so let this one be bigger than usual: watch what leaves, and do not chase it. On the 28th, the full moon in Pisces peaks in your house of who you are at first sight: something ripens there, and seeing it whole is the task. That one is an eclipse as well: the same counsel, one level deeper.
Who Pisces is
Pisces runs from February 19 to March 20. Born right on the edge, the exact year decides the sign, and your birth chart says it without guessing.
Pisces is ruled by Neptune, and Jupiter in the old books. Its symbol is the fish.
The Sun in Pisces
Your core has no hard edges: imagination, compassion, and a porousness to everything unseen. You live in two worlds and pay rent in both.
The Moon in Pisces
You feel everyone's weather, sometimes before they do. Art, water and sleep are not luxuries for you, they're how the sponge gets wrung out.
Pisces rising
You come across as gentle and slightly elsewhere, dreamy eyes doing very accurate readings. People soften around you without noticing.
Who matches Pisces?
Pisces swims easiest with the other water signs, Cancer and Scorpio, who read silences fluently. Earth gives the ocean a shore: Taurus and Capricorn hold the practical side so Pisces can feel safely. The mirror is Virgo, the opposite sign, where Pisces learns that a boundary is a kind of poem too.
Your Sun sign is one line of your sky. Read the whole letter.
