Pisces Monthly Horoscope August 2021 (2024)

Overview for this Month: Pisces (All)

August 2021 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Pisces:

Your focus on your daily routines, fitness, health, nutrition, work, and habits continues in August, dear Pisces. August is very often a month of reorganization for you, and this year is no exception. However, it's a more pleasant phase than usual. While it's not the best cycle for recognition or worldly success, this is a strong period for self-development and laying the groundwork for future success.

Especially in early August, good energy is with you for sorting out and gaining clarity about work and health matters in a logical manner. There can be an epiphany or realization about a health or work issue. Daily routines can keep you unusually busy.

The New Moon on the 8th presents good energy for beginning anew with a health or work program. Work, diet, and other daily routines are in focus, and you're taking charge of them. There is a strong sense that you are on top of the little things in your life, boosting your mood in a big way.

Until the 16th, a Venus transit may bring happy or helpful people into your social circle, presenting opportunities for enhancing or attracting partnerships. If peace-making can benefit you, it's a great time to do so. You might also benefit from someone's input and help. It may be that you're craving company more than anything now, as you appreciate the feeling that you have someone to lean on if you need the support! As well, sharing pleasures and activities can be particularly appealing now.

Relationships can be over-stimulating at times, however, as Mars spends the month in your partnership sector. This transit does bring a lively, stimulating quality to close relationships, but also some competitiveness in spots. Ideally, you find ways to work energetically with someone towards a goal, which can be very successful.

Someone could motivate you to be more courageous, to do things you've wanted to do but haven't yet taken on, and to believe in yourself. However, you could feel that others are directing your life, which can be frustrating. Conflicts stirred with an important player in your life can lead to valuable discoveries and increased motivation to make needed changes. A close relationship can move forward, in other words, with resentments bared.

From the 16th, you're seeking more depth from your relationships or projects. You might awaken to buried desires now. While acquaintances could find you withdrawn or aloof, charisma in love matters runs high. You're in particularly good shape with shared resources, such as money, property, loans, and support. It's a favorable time to ask for help if you need it.

Uranus turns retrograde on the 19th, and this yearly, five-month cycle is currently in your communications sector. Uranus has a way of pulling repressed feelings to the surface, and yet you may not feel that you can express them smoothly or fully. In the months ahead, however, you'll find different–and possibly more satisfying–channels for representing and expressing yourself. You might re-examine some of your projects or interests, which have recently been somewhat sporadic or coming on suddenly.

From the 22nd, your focus on partnerships and social matters bumps up a notch. You might look to a special friend or partner for inspiration. It's an excellent time for relationships that involve advice-giving, agent work, and counseling. You seem to need others' support and companionship to bring out the best in you at this time.

Do take advantage of your increased motivation and energy for work and health routines, but remember that overdoing it can set you back. Events around the Full Moon on the 22nd might conspire to enforce some rest. This lunation reminds you to pay special attention to your needs for breathing space and spiritual nourishment.

Events and circ*mstances around this Full Moon can prompt a desire or need for change in your spending habits and budget. If you've been underutilizing a particular resource or asset, and this can include a talent, then you'll see this now.

You might get past a problem that's been keeping you from growing and thriving this month. Studies or projects can show signs of progress or motivate you to do something new and bold.

It can be a fine month for expressing yourself through your relationships. You're also more sensitive to imbalances in your life now, and you may go to greater lengths than usual to create more harmony.

Pisces (Born February 20 to March 1) and Pisces Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Pisces:

August 2021 Pisces Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

August 2021

The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness

Until August 22nd:

The Sun continues to spotlight your solar sixth house. This is a busy period that finds you tending to many different details of your daily existence--your work, various projects, organization around the home and office, your daily routines, and health matters. Your ego may be especially tied up in the work you do, so that you are proud and more creative than usual in your job. You may be in the position to take charge in your work, or to take charge of your health and diet. Sometimes this cycle relates to increased activities involving pets. You seek to perfect your skills or methods now, and you focus on the parts that make up the whole now in order to improve your daily life. As a result, you can be more critical than usual, but this process is necessary for you to sort out what works for you and what doesn't.

From August 23rd forward:

The Sun illuminates your seventh house. At this time of year, you have a greater need than usual to be with a partner. Bouncing ideas off someone helps you to better understand yourself. A partner provides a mirror for your own self-discovery. Now is the time to realize your own potential through a significant other. During this cycle, you focus on balancing your personal interests and objectives with your social life, or with those of a partner. The emphasis is on "us" rather than "me".

You need the energies, companionship, and support of other people, and they may also seek out your support and companionship. It's important to include others rather than to go solo for the time being. However, bending too much to the will of another is not advised either. Social interactions of a personal, one-on-one kind are emphasized. Circ*mstances are such that your diplomacy skills are required. Your popularity is increasing, and is reinforced by your own ability to cooperate and harmonize. Your ego and pride are tied up in how you relate to others now. This may be an especially busy time for people who consult or work with clients one-on-one.

Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure

Until August 15th:

Venus continues her trek through your partnership sector. Meaningful and harmonious relationships--both social and romantic--define you during this cycle, affecting your mind, body, and soul. Financial or social success may come to or through your marriage partner at this time. Special attention to and from a partner is in focus, and flattery works to your advantage! Give to a partner exactly what you would like to receive just now. It's not about you right now--it's about someone else close. Smoothing out your close personal relationships is what makes you happy during this cycle. You have a greater need than usual for contact and exchange with an intimate partner. If single, you are more willing than normal to enter into a committed relationship. In general, you are adaptable when it comes to your affections.

From August 16th forward:

Venus graces your solar eighth house now. During this cycle, a financial boost is possible, or you may gain financially through your partner. A deep and intimate connection made now could be revitalizing and even healing. You are more inclined to want to smooth over differences in a partnership concerning the sharing of power, intimacy matters, finances, and other emotionally-charged topics. Intimate relationships are intensified now. Either you or your partner want a deeper union.

Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation

Until August 11th:

Mercury continues to transit your solar sixth house. This is an excellent cycle for improving your skills, objectively identifying your weaknesses so that you can work on them, and for finding flaws in your work methods or approach to daily activities so that you can make necessary changes.

You might be especially focused on list-making and to-do lists, as well as organizing things around you. The need to communicate about your work, health, and other daily affairs, or with co-workers, is especially strong now. Negative expression of this position is worrying about sixth house matters (work, health, pets, and so forth) rather than finding ways to improve these things.

From August 11-29:

Mercury transits your solar seventh house. You tend to weigh the pros and cons of every issue during this cycle, taking into account others' needs as well as your own. Some indecisiveness is possible now, simply because you naturally entertain opposing viewpoints. You have a strong desire to cooperate and communicate with others now. You feel most comfortable spending time with people on a one-to-one level, or with those with whom you share a personal history.

Interestingly, your own thoughts become clearer through dialogue with others during this window. You may be doing public relations work, counseling, negotiating, or arbitration during this cycle. There is a lot of emphasis on communications with partners and best friends at this time. You can use the power of words to advise others or to make peace with people in your life. You are more diplomatic than usual during this transit.

From August 30th forward:

Mercury transits your solar eighth house. You are more intuitive now than usual, picking up all of the hidden cues from people around you and reading between the lines. This is an excellent cycle in which to do some financial planning and strategizing.

Research is also highly favored. It's easier for you to approach sensitive, intimate, and personal matters with rationality and logic. As such, this is a great time to open up conversations about topics that normally might cause waves, such as those revolving around the sharing of power, intimacy, and finances.

Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage

All month:

Mars continues to move through your solar seventh house. During this period, strife is possible in your close personal relationships, as a significant other is now mirroring some of your own issues with assertiveness and anger. Attracting aggression in others during this cycle is a clue that there are unresolved issues within that need tending. You might actually seek some form of conflict, whether intentionally or not, in order to deal with these issues. There can be competitiveness in your life now. Any troublesome issues that have been dormant in a relationship are likely to surface, and can now be handled straightforwardly.

August 2021 Pisces Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

August 2021

The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness

All month:

The Sun illuminates your solar sixth house. During this cycle, you take more pride in the work you do and in your health routines than any other time of the year. You are sorting through the experiences of the last several months, separating the worthwhile from the worthless. This is a good time to build your skills, to get organized, and to attend to your health and wellbeing. It's a great time to make improvements to your regular routines. Your self-esteem and your ego are tied up in the work you do and in the services you give. Details are more important to you now.

It's time to bring order to your life by focusing on the little things that make up the whole. This cycle presents an opportunity to get rid of what doesn't work in your life, while also discovering what does. You could seek distinction and strive towards perfection in your work. Efficiency should be your goal now. Your physical health, as well as the relationship between your body and your mind, are in focus.

Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort

Until the 24th:

Venus continues her trek through your partnership sector. Meaningful and harmonious relationships--both social and romantic--define you during this cycle, affecting your mind, body, and soul. Financial or social success may come to or through your marriage partner at this time. Special attention to and from a partner is in focus, and flattery works to your advantage! Give to a partner exactly what you would like to receive just now. It's not about you right now--it's about someone else close.

A deep and intimate connection made now could be revitalizing and even healing. You are more inclined to want to smooth over differences in a partnership concerning the sharing of power, intimacy matters, finances, and other emotionally-charged topics. Intimate relationships are intensified now. Either you or your partner want a deeper union.

Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation

From August 1-17:

Mercury transits your solar sixth house. This is a good placement for Mercury, as it is the natural ruler of the sixth house. It's an excellent period for sorting out the details of your daily existence. You are inclined to make to-do lists, pay bills and sort out clutter, and to do detail work on the job. Health matters are most certainly on your brain as well, and you could be thinking of scheduling check-ups or busy researching ways to improve your health. You may also show a keener interest in improving your basic skills.

Your approach to work during this cycle is pleasant, happy, and logical for the most part, unless you allow worry or scattered energy to enter the picture. You are inclined to want to learn new work skills, or to improve your skills and output in terms of work. There is likely to be more activity, movement, contact, and communications with co-workers now.

You tend to take more interest in organizing your working environment--and this is an excellent time to do so, as you are especially objective and intelligent when it comes to getting a handle on your daily affairs and all of the "little things" that contribute to a feeling of efficiency and competency. Menial tasks become more prominent. Watch, however, for tension or idle chit-chat interfering with your work output during this cycle.

From August 17th forward:

Mercury transits your solar seventh house. You tend to weigh the pros and cons of every issue during this cycle, taking into account others' needs as well as your own.

You are more diplomatic than usual during this transit.

Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage

Until August 14th:

Mars continues to animate and energize your solar sixth house. Energy and initiative for work, health, and other daily activities increase. You are self-motivated when it comes to these matters. If there are disagreements and disputes that erupt on the job now, they may be due to a feeling of stress or impatience, or they could come from your desire to get things done independently. It's best to apply energy productively to completing projects that are unfinished or even to get ahead of yourself. It's a strong period for feeling motivated for starting a new health or fitness routine.

From August 15th:

Mars energizes and animates your solar seventh house. Partnerships may suffer from ego conflicts, or opposition from others may be challenging. Use the extra energy that Mars brings to this sector of your chart to work cooperatively on relationship problems. You may even find that you seem to need someone's help in order to do what you want to do during this cycle. Relationships are vivacious and dynamic during this period. When a difference arises, you are quick to settle it, and have little patience for sweeping matters under the rug. Your close personal relationships are lively during this cycle--full of conflicts and resolutions or reconciliations.

August 2021 Pisces Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

August 2021

The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness

Until August 12th:

The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar fifth house. This is a time when pleasure-seeking and creative activities come into focus and grab much of your attention. You are particularly personally charming in a spontaneous, natural way during this solar cycle. This is the time of year when you are ready to perform and to express yourself creatively.

This is a very playful cycle, when you are inspired creatively and emotionally. It's a good time for recreation, romance, connecting with children, and enjoying and performing the arts. Your ego is tied up in your children, romantic relationships, and creative output now, so that you can be especially proud of these people and things. You can also be over-sensitive about these matters if you feel you are not getting enough appreciation.

From August 12th forward:

The Sun illuminates your solar sixth house. During this cycle, you take more pride in the work you do and in your health routines than any other time of the year. You are sorting through the experiences of the last several months, separating the worthwhile from the worthless. This is a good time to build your skills, to get organized, and to attend to your health and wellbeing. It's a great time to make improvements to your regular routines.

Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort

Until August 7th:

Venus continues to move through your solar sixth house now. This is a time when beautifying and/or bringing harmony to your working environment is a priority to you. You might find more opportunities to socialize with co-workers, perhaps even meeting a new friend through your work or health routines. You are likely to bring more tact and diplomacy to your relations with the people you work with now. You may not be as productive as usual during this period, as the focus is more on social relationships and pleasure than on getting the job done. Improving health and vitality through pleasurable activities such as massage might be in focus now.

From August 7th forward:

Venus graces your solar seventh house during this period. This is a time for extra attention to a partner or significant other, as well as from that person! You are more inclined to flatter and charm others during this cycle. One-to-one relating appeals to you more than group activities or more casual connections. Smoothing out your close personal relationships is what makes you happy during this cycle. If single, you are more willing than normal to enter into a committed relationship. In general, you are adaptable when it comes to your affections--very willing to compromise, negotiate, and make peace.

Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation

Until August 6th:

Mercury continues to transit your solar fifth house. Increased communication with children, romantic partners, and people who share the same hobbies as you can occur now. Certainly, you are thinking about these people and about love and romance, child rearing, and/or creative pursuits more than usual. Mental exercises and competitions can be particularly enjoyable now. You express yourself with warmth and creativity, and you have an appreciative "audience" for your ideas now.

This transit does bring a lively, stimulating quality to close relationships, but also some competitiveness in spots. Ideally, you find ways to work energetically with someone towards a goal, which can be very successful.

Someone could motivate you to be more courageous, to do things you've wanted to do but haven't yet taken on, and to believe in yourself. However, you could feel that others are directing your life, which can be frustrating. Conflicts stirred with an important player in your life can lead to valuable discoveries and increased motivation to make needed changes. A close relationship can move forward, in other words, with resentments bared.

From the 16th, you're seeking more depth from your relationships or projects. You might awaken to buried desires now. While acquaintances could find you withdrawn or aloof, charisma in love matters runs high. You're in particularly good shape with shared resources, such as money, property, loans, and support. It's a favorable time to ask for help if you need it.

Uranus turns retrograde on the 19th, and this yearly, five-month cycle is currently in your communications sector. Uranus has a way of pulling repressed feelings to the surface, and yet you may not feel that you can express them smoothly or fully. In the months ahead, however, you'll find different–and possibly more satisfying–channels for representing and expressing yourself. You might re-examine some of your projects or interests, which have recently been somewhat sporadic or coming on suddenly.

From the 22nd, your focus on partnerships and social matters bumps up a notch. You might look to a special friend or partner for inspiration. It's an excellent time for relationships that involve advice-giving, agent work, and counseling. You seem to need others' support and companionship to bring out the best in you at this time.

Do take advantage of your increased motivation and energy for work and health routines, but remember that overdoing it can set you back. Events around the Full Moon on the 22nd might conspire to enforce some rest. This lunation reminds you to pay special attention to your needs for breathing space and spiritual nourishment.

Events and circ*mstances around this Full Moon can prompt a desire or need for change in your spending habits and budget. If you've been underutilizing a particular resource or asset, and this can include a talent, then you'll see this now.

You might get past a problem that's been keeping you from growing and thriving this month. Studies or projects can show signs of progress or motivate you to do something new and bold.

It can be a fine month for expressing yourself through your relationships. You're also more sensitive to imbalances in your life now, and you may go to greater lengths than usual to create more harmony.

About Our Monthly Horoscopes:

Our detailed monthly horoscopes are designed to reveal and interpret the current transits of the Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars in your solar chart. Because these energies or transits do not unfold neatly into any given calendar month (many transits carry forward from one month to the next), you will find some of the energies continue from a previous month. For example, the Sun might transit the second house of your solar chart from June 21 to July 22, so that you will find a similar interpretation for this transit in both June and July’s horoscope. This is normal and expected. While new months can hold new energy, transits don’t abruptly change because the calendar month changes.

These monthly horoscopes also include an overview paragraph, as well as other energies specific to the month, such as retrogrades, eclipses, or major outer planet transits.

The Highlights section reveal lunar cycle dates. Lunar cycles repeat themselves approximately every 28 days, so it is normal to see the same lunar peaks, such as “Your Personal New Moon” and “Monthly career peak” repeat themselves from month to month, but with different dates. They serve as a helpful guide to cycle peaks in different areas of life, such as financial, career, romance, and partnership.

The horoscopes are divided into three groups or decanates, and the differences between the groups are subtle in parts and large in other parts. For those who prefer a whole sign approach to horoscopes (classic), simply read the first decanate regardless of your birthdate.
