ARIES

GENERAL
The High Priestess
August is a month of stillness and inner knowing as the High Priestess guides you inward, calling you to trust what cannot yet be seen. This is a time for listening to your intuition without needing all the proof. There’s something beneath the surface that wants your attention and there may also be a need to keep certain inner knowing’s to yourself this month and move in silence. Trust the process, Aries.
 
LOVE/RELATIONSHIPS
Queen of Wands
You’re magnetic, Aries, and your confidence radiates, drawing people in. The Queen of Wands represents passion, charisma, and is unapologetically herself in love. If partnered, this is a month to reignite the spark - bring heat, playfulness, and bold, fiery expression into your connection. If single, your allure is undeniable - but be mindful of cozying up with someone who sees your inner fire and honors it, not try to contain or control it. Remember, Aries, don’t dim your light to make others comfortable.
 
FINANCES/CAREER
Death
A major ending is unfolding in your work or financial world, but it’s clearing space for rebirth. The Death card doesn’t speak of failure; it speaks of transformation – of what you’ve outgrown and what must be released. This may look like a job change, shedding a toxic client or contract, restructuring your business, or redefining your relationship with money. Let it fall apart if it’s not aligned. Something better is waiting - but you can’t receive it if your hands are full of what no longer serves you.
 
SOUL/SPIRITUAL
Selkis - Healing
Selkis brings healing, especially around old wounds you’ve been too strong to feel. August asks you to stop flexing your power and instead move into truly healing what you’re shielding from. Perhaps wounds about money are affecting your financial picture this month, and so addressing those could lead towards the awakening and changes you need.

taurus

​GENERAL
2 of Swords
August may bring some internal tension, such as indecision, as part of you doesn’t want to face the consequences of what you already know. You’re at a threshold and a choice must be made. There is also a need to take the blindfold off, as you might be bracing for impact or perhaps trying to avoid what you should do. This month, be brave enough to choose what aligns with your soul, even if it disrupts your comfort.
 
LOVE/RELATIONSHIPS
4 of Cups
This month might prove to be a bit of an emotional roller coaster, as the 4 of Cups speaks of disconnection, apathy, or the heartache from unmet expectations. In love, you may feel underwhelmed - like what’s being offered isn’t enough, or what you desire feels just out of reach. It’s time to ask: are you present with what’s here? Or are you numbing out, waiting for something more exciting? Either way, clarity is needed. Don’t let discontent turn into passive resentment. Check your perspective and ask for what you need - or make peace with where you are.
 
FINANCES/CAREER
3 of Swords
Painful truths may surface around money or your professional relationships this month, as the 3 of Swords doesn’t always bring disaster, but it does pierce illusion. You may uncover betrayal, face loss, or grieve a missed opportunity. Sometimes, you have to let the truth break you open, for the sake of a release, or realizations that are hard to face but cater to a better path. Financially, don’t ignore signs this month, especially anything negative. Be honest with yourself about what isn’t working so you can move toward what will.
 
SOUL/SPIRITUAL
Hapy - Renewal
Hapy reminds you that after sorrow comes renewal. Hapy brings the waters that cleanse and restore, and so spiritually, you’re entering a season of replenishment. Let go of everything that dilutes you and reconnect to what lights you up.

GEMINI

GENERAL
The Empress
August brings fertile ground, catering to abundance, creative expansion, and receiving. This month, you are being asked to nourish yourself and to simply bloom. You may find that you are magnetic for opportunities or even connecting with the right people who offer resources. Manifestations may also take form this month and they do so with ease, allowing you to soak in the fruits of your labor.
 
LOVE/RELATIONSHIPS
The Hanged One
Something in your love life needs a pause, and the Hanged One invites surrender – an opportunity to release control and see things from an entirely new angle. Do not try to force clarity or chase answers. Step back and detach. Let what wants to reveal itself come forward in its own time. There may also be a sort of spiritual lesson unraveling this month that is focused on surrender and receiving the vision rather than forcing it.
 
FINANCES/CAREER
Crone of Wands
This month, it is important to be clear about your intentions and peruse goals that match your passion and drive. You may become bored, or perhaps too eager to start new tasks or projects before finishing the other. If you cannot commit to some of these, consider handing them off to others who are just as capable. You may also be put into a leadership role or be a source of passion and inspiration for others.
 
SOUL/SPIRITUAL
Selkis - Healing
Selkis reminds you that healing is cyclical, not linear. Selkis also wants to remind you that even when you think you’ve "done the work," deeper layers remain. This month brings another opportunity to shed old beliefs, habits, or energetic imprints you’ve carried.

CANCER

GENERAL
Balance
August comes in with justice in mind and a balancing of the scales, but it depends on how you choose to walk your path. You need to ensure that you are being the bigger person at the end of the day when it comes to conflicts with others or any legal dealings. There may also be contracts involved this month that require you to make a fair assessment of what is good for everyone at the end of the day. You might have dealt with something unfair that will be resolved and the result will be fair in the eyes of karma.
 
LOVE/RELATIONSHIPS
Queen of Swords
In August, the Queen of Swords cuts through illusion and demands truth. You may need to express a hard truth or set a boundary that protects your heart. It is important to use discernment this month with those whom do not equally give and take. This is a month to remember those who had let you out in the cold while you set yourself on fire to keep them warm. Communication is also important in partnerships, but be mindful of how you express your truth
 
FINANCES/CAREER
Temperance
August is a month to blend opposing forces into something more powerful and sustainable. You might be balancing multiple roles, revising your workflow, or working through a financial imbalance. Whatever it is, there’s no need to rush. Let things come together naturally. Be mindful of too much indulgence and trust the process. Something is taking form this month but it requires you to be in a receptive and balanced state - not stuck on survival mode or overindulgence in spending.
 
SOUL/SPIRITUAL
Khepri - Change
You’re in a metamorphic stage, Cancer. Khepri speaks to transformation, and so the changes you’re experiencing aren’t just circumstantial – they may be soul-level or contractual. You’re being called to shed what no longer serves you, even if it once protected or shielded you.

FINANCES/CAREER
9 of Cups
You’ve been putting in the work, and now you get to enjoy a little bit of what you’ve built. The 9 of Cups is about satisfaction and results. While you still have more goals to accomplish, you are receiving the results from past efforts and recently accomplished goals. That could look like financial payoff, a new opportunity that aligns with your financial or career goals, or simply feeling more confident in where you’re headed. Be proud of what’s working, but don’t lose sight of what still needs tending.
 
SOUL/SPIRITUAL
Anuket - Hope
Anuket isn’t about ignoring reality. It’s about choosing to believe something better is possible even when things are uncertain.

This month is all about taking that first step and allowing that idea or spark to take form. What do you want to create be your compass this month.

LOVE/RELATIONSHIPS
2 of Wands
You’re standing at the edge of something new in your love life, but you’re not quite sure whether to leap. You feel the possibility, but also hesitation. Perhaps you are clinging to your safety net or have outgrown something but don’t want to admit to it. Maybe you’ve outgrown something but haven’t said it out loud yet. August will bring clarity and a greater vision. You may find that the more you allow yourself to move towards something new, the past begins to release its clutches.
 
FINANCES/CAREER
10 of Wands
You’ve been carrying too much for too long and something’s gotta give. The Ten of Wands shows a cycle of overwork, burnout, and responsibility that’s taken a toll. If your job is draining you dry, if your to-do list is your entire personality—stop. Delegate. Reorganize. Reclaim your energy. You’re not meant to hustle yourself into the ground. Success is meaningless if you’re too exhausted to enjoy it.
 
SOUL/SPIRITUAL
Amon-Ra - Creation
Amon-Ra reminds you that you’re not just surviving - you’re creating worlds. Your soul is being asked to step into co-creation, rather than reaction. What kind of life do you want to build from here? What truth are you ready to embody? Make space for magic.
