August Full Moon Astrology

This year’s Full Sturgeon Moon reaches peak illumination in Aquarius (17 degrees) on August 9, 2025 at 3:55 a.m. Eastern Time, 12:55 a.m. Pacific and 8:55 a.m. in London.

During this period of the year, the Sun travels through Leo (July 23-August 22). When the Sun is in Leo, the full Moon always occurs in Aquarius. Here is an illustration showing Aquarius (left) and Leo (right) opposing each other on the zodiac wheel:

Full Moon Horoscopes for August 2025 represented by a zodiac sign wheel with Leo and Aquarius highlighted. — August full Moon 2025 astrology falls along the Aquarius-Leo polarity.

Both Leo and Aquarius zodiac signs hold ties to our passions, sense of expression, aspirations and how we connect to others—whether that is in love or friendship. This duality can aid us in understanding not only the “love we give,” but “the love we receive.” Vibrant, expansive, and connected energy should be here for us.

While Leo aligns with romantic love and creativity, Aquarius deals with our communities and vision for the future.

Uranus Brings Innovation

When it comes to planetary aspects coloring this lunation, we will experience a few different energetic frequencies. First and foremost, Uranus, the planetary ruler of this lunation, is in a dazzling dance with many planets at this time. This bodes well for us all of us.

First, Uranus is exactly trine (a positive angle) Saturn and Neptune. This will bring innovation, imagination, and spiritual breakthroughs, as well as opportunities for long-term creativity, success, and structures to be put into place.

Uranus is also trine Mars, invigorating us with a fiery passion for new horizons, stepping outside of the box, and embracing a vibrant sense of “new” personally and professionally. This can push us to meet with new kinds of people, experience magnetic attraction, or have fun in unique and different ways.

Last, Uranus is linked in a sextile to Mercury, stimulating visionary ideas, mental breakthroughs, and a festive, social atmosphere. Embrace all of this fantastic energy!

♈ ARIES March 21 – April 19

You could be eager to experience “joy on tap” now, Aries! Happiness is searching for you, so go out and find it. This Full Moon puts more attention on your friendships, communities, and network. You may attend an important event, find yourself lifted up as a leader, or join a group that aligns with your beliefs and goals. A significant situation around a friend could be here to face. Last, this may be a good time to vision board your long-term goals and aspirations.

♉ TAURUS April 20 – May 20

One of the mightiest periods of the year for your professional life is here, Taurus. This could be a “make or break” moment! If you’ve been in the right lane, cranking along to your goals, you could find a major triumph is upon you. Fame, success, promotions, awards, and more money may all be presented. However, if you’re not being realistic—and haven’t been in the right career path—you may face an unfortunate turning point.

♊ GEMINI May 21 – June 20

As one of the zodiac signs that loves being a “jetsetter,” this Full Moon could amp you up to hit the road or take to the skies, Gemini! Travel is a major theme for you now, especially of a long-distance nature (over 150 miles). Venture into the unknown! If you’re bogged down with projects or other responsibilities, it’s still a good time to look ahead to future trips that you’d like to venture upon. Search now and book for later!

♋ CANCER June 21 – July 22

This month’s Full Moon has a flavor for money for you, Cancer! This could be an excellent period to assess your wealth matters. Meet with an accountant or investment advisor to help you look at your retirement or long-term affairs. Some of you could also be eager to change your assets, investments, or lines of credit. Paying off debts could happen for some of you now, as well.

However, if you’re not seeing eye-to-eye, you may have to face the music now. If looking for the ideal partner—likely in a professional sense, like an accountant, trainer, or assistant—this is a time to keep your eyes open.

♌ LEO July 23 – August 22

The most important Full Moon for your relationships is upon you, Leo! The truth will now be seen! A significant partnership will be on your mind—and likely walking toward you or away from you—now. This could obviously be of a personal nature, like a marriage or separation, or of a professional one, like signing a negotiation. If you’re seeking the right kind of business associate to help you with your goals, now may be a positive time.

♍ VIRGO August 23 – September 22

You’re always on a mission, Virgo, and this month’s Full Moon is pushing you to pick up the pace! You likely have many irons in the fire now as you juggle routines and responsibilities. Important employment matters could also be here for you to focus upon—either polishing off a project, starting or ending a job, or hiring people to do services for you. Others of you may instead have to deal with a health-related situation.

♎ LIBRA September 23 – October 22

Magic could be in every moment now, Libra! Open your heart to the beauty of life! This month’s Full Moon amplifies your heart’s desires, especially around romance, children, hobbies, or creativity. Don’t sit back and just wait for it to be attracted to you, though, pursue your joy! This is one of the most important times for singles to be on the lookout for a “special someone.”

♏ SCORPIO October 23 – November 21

The upcoming Full Moon will bring important factors to your attention, Scorpio. They will likely be related to home, family, real estate, or domestic situations. On a pleasant level, you could be celebrating special moments with your kindred, but it could be as major as a big move or family event!

♐ SAGITTARIUS November 22 – December 21

You’re bursting at the seams to learn, chat, and connect with others, Sagittarius. This is a magnificent moment to acquire and share information. Some of you may decide to get invested in learning new skills, even if it’s as simple as brushing up on a favorite podcast or reading a study manual. Some of you may be at a turning point with a communications-related project, like a website launch or social media revamp.

♑ CAPRICORN December 22 – January 19

Financial matters will be on your mind now, Capricorn! Funds are flowing in and out. The good news is that many of you may find yourself more “flush” at this time. You may be able to splurge more on yourself and others. However, if an income stream halts or an expense pops up, some of you could instead have to dig into that nest egg or move some finances around.

♒ AQUARIUS January 20 – February 18

The most important Full Moon of the year for you has arrived and you could feel like it’s a jubilation, Aquarius! All eyes are on you. This is a significant period to reach toward personal and professional goals, exert your influence, and show the world what makes you truly special. Don’t hide your light under a basket!

♓ PISCES February 19 – March 20

Life has been in the fast lane as of late, Pisces, but this month’s Full Moon is encouraging you to take a backseat to everyone and everything else. This isn’t a bad thing, though. There’s a time to strike—and a time to rest. Now is the time to pause, reflect, heal, and recharge your energy. That way, soon enough, you’ll be ready to tackle the next great heights.
