Libra Horoscope August 2026
Career and gains carry the month. The Sun spends the first half of August in Cancer, your 10th house, a supportive position for recognition, and on 17 August it enters Leo, its own sign and your 11th, also favoured by classical gochara for income and friendships. Mercury traces a similar path, reaching your 10th on 5 August and your 11th later in the month, and it is counted as helpful in both.
The total eclipse of the Sun on 12 August sits in your 10th house, where exalted Jupiter is staying. The traditional advice is to pause rather than launch on such days, so avoid announcing big career moves that week. Aquarius, your 5th, receives a partial lunar eclipse on 28 August, touching children, romance and creative plans. Your ruler, Venus, moves into Virgo, your 12th, on 1 August; it is debilitated there, though the 12th counts as a supportive house for Venus. Mars enters your 9th on 2 August, and Saturn, retrograde all month in your 6th, still supports steady work.
