Expect a slow climb and a peak that holds well into later life.

❤️ Love & Relationships

Venus moves through your seventh house (Virgo) this August, bringing marriage & partnership into focus. This is the marriage placement, usually giving an attractive, loving and refined spouse and a partnership central to your happiness. For a man, the wife is often beautiful and influential. The caveat is dependency and, when afflicted, a wandering eye or relationship excess.

Mercury in your fifth house colours this August through children & intellect. You flirt and bond through wit, banter, and shared ideas; a partner who can match your mind matters more than almost anything else. You may approach love analytically, weighing pros and cons.

🩺 Health

Saturn, now retrograde, moves through your first house (Pisces) this August, bringing self & personality into focus. Saturn on the ascendant governs the bones, joints, teeth and nervous vitality. Watch for low energy, dental and skin issues, and a tendency to internalise stress; steady routine, warmth and rest matter more for you than for most.

With Ketu transiting your sixth house in Leo, enemies ask for attention. This is the health house, so Ketu themes are pronounced: undiagnosed ailments, nervous complaints, low immunity, sudden viral flare-ups and symptoms that migrate and confuse doctors. Steady routine, sleep and stress management matter more here than almost anywhere.
