Weekly Horoscope: August 16 – 22, 2021

This is a big week with some subtle shifts in energy as we move closer to the end of summer. We start the week with lovely Venus (planet of love) entering Libra on Monday. Venus is right at home in the sign of the Scales, making the next four weeks an excellent time for love. However, we could have trouble making decisions about love and financial matters. 

Sunday is a big day with a full moon in Aquarius. It could bring up some serious déjà vu from last month when the full moon was also in the sign of the Water Bearer. During the second time around, try not to start too much trouble with your rebellious streak. It could cause more harm than good. 

Sunday marks the beginning of Virgo season! The sun will be shining in practical, modest Virgo for the next four weeks, encouraging us to be sensible and practical and get our lives together. Strive to help others and be your best self.
