BABY, YOUR STARS SHINE BRIGHT: Friendcities Horoscope, 08/22-09/22

SONG: Goodnight and Go by Imogen Heap

Happyyy Virgo season! I say this with no bias but I hope everyone’s showering all those Virgos in y’all’s lives with love— or at least trying not to stress them out! This season is gonna be eventful for all the signs and asks us all to explore our true selves. There’s even some celestial events, the lunar eclipse on August 28th and the Virgo new moon on September 10th, coming in with some intense transformation and reset energy to help us do that! So make like a Virgo, get those ducks in their rows, and let’s see what y’all can accomplish!!

Virgo- As much as I glazed you in the intro, remember that this season is a time when all your typical traits are amplified, and that can actually be a lot! Try to be patient: it isn’t about an immediate jump to perfection, it’s the culmination of everything up until now that you’ve done so purposefully that really gets to shine.

Libra- For almost the whole month of September, Mercury, the planet of communication, will be in your sign. You’re probably already a careful negotiator, but it might be a good time to find peace in disputes, avoid draining routines, or anything else you need for personal harmony.

Scorpio- Venus is hot, so stay cool, Scorpio! Venus passion plus Scorpio intensity means you won’t wanna waste your time with anything or anyone that doesn’t give you real intimacy and satisfaction. So don’t be afraid of being vulnerable this month, and really let yourself feel all those feelings!

Sagittarius- Virgo season could be a good career season for an ambitious Sagittarius! However, don’t let those big dreams keep you from looking inward; the Pisces eclipse will be a chance to navigate those emotions and make sure that your inner world can support all the changes that may come.

Capricorn- Right now is a time for all your ninth house activities, like adventure and your big picture purpose. Try to get outside your comfort zone when you can this month, because those broadened horizons and Earth-type resonance from Virgo can give you a looot of clarity when you need it!

Aquarius- OMG looks like money and love for you, Aquarius! That being said… it’s not as glamorous as it sounds. The theme this month will be more about your relationships with love and money: what makes you feel secure, loved, or fulfilled? With that perspective, it’s still a chance for money and love!!

Pisces- This eclipse is all you, Pisces! Your sign is also in opposition to the sun, so with the two combined, it might feel like all of your emotions are intense right now. But remember! This intensity is in service of transformation; if you lead with precision and directness you could come out the other end feeling brand new :)

Aries- Pump the brakes a lil; let this be a time for rejuvenation! All of your movement towards your goals, whether it be in your career or personal life, has been hard work and it might feel like you’re overextending yourself, but it’s also brought you to an even better place. So enjoy the stay! Taking a step back can prepare you even better for your next move.

Taurus- This may not be the season for big jumps, but it might be a good time for a reset! Remember all those things you love and make you happy? You can get back to them! A discerning eye for what you do and don’t need in your life will be your best friend, and hopefully, especially during the eclipse, you can feel recentered.

Gemini- Try to stay out of the public eye, Gemini! Not because it doesn’t love you, but maybe you’re needed at home right now. What does “home” mean for you? Time with family, rebalancing work and personal life, even just a Virgo-style tidying up could all be good for you right now, while that grounding, Earth-type energy is in the air!

Cancer- Keep that schedule open– things are about to get busy! Now more than ever, you don’t wanna dwell in settings that aren’t serving you anymore. You know you can trust your intuition already, so take that leap if you wanna! However, if you find yourself in new circles, be especially careful of missing out on the finer details this month!

Leo- You probably lived it up last month, Leo, so this month evaluate those assets. It’s not just about money, either (although it can be)! Are you being duly appreciated? Is your energy going towards things that matter to you? Prepare and recenter, so you can be even more ready for your next big opportunity!
