The sky in August 2027 for Leo

The New Moon and total solar eclipse arrive in Leo at 5:05 AM on August 2, and Mercury enters your sign at 5:48 AM. A solar eclipse is a new moon with extra emphasis, and its themes usually unfold over the following six months, so nothing has to happen on the day. Saturn stations retrograde in Aries on August 9, slowing ninth-house plans for study or travel into review. Around August 12 the Sun meets Venus in Leo.

Mercury enters Virgo late on August 16. The Full Moon and penumbral lunar eclipse in Aquarius at 2:28 AM on August 17 light your seventh house. Venus enters Virgo on August 20 and the Sun follows at 3:07 AM on August 23, gathering beside Jupiter in your second house. The New Moon in Virgo at 12:41 PM on August 31 falls as the Sun meets Jupiter there.

Love and relationships

Venus is in Leo until August 20, and you are easy to like. The Aquarius eclipse on August 17 answers February's: a relationship pattern can end, leaving a clearer arrangement between equals. Let the feelings of that week settle before deciding what they mean.

Career and work

An eclipse in your sign can change how you present yourself, and that often reaches your work. From mid-month the emphasis moves to Virgo, where your talents are asked to pay their way. August 31 suits a first practical step.

Wellbeing

Eclipse seasons are stimulating. Keep the days around August 2 and August 17 simple, with time outdoors and unhurried meals. The First Quarter Moon in Scorpio on August 8 is a cue to spend an evening at home.
