Weekly horoscopes for Aug 17-23. Dive into a 0° Virgo New Moon plus a rare Venus Lilith trine. The week of August 17–23 opens up a potent liminal space. The Moon is in her balsamic phase, whispering that every ending is a silent beginning. Each day she shrinks, helping you sweep away energies and outdated stories so new purpose can take root.
On Friday the Sun slips into Virgo, and early Saturday the New Moon arrives at 0° Virgo—exactly on the threshold and fused with Regulus, the royal star of earned honor. What you have sown in integrity now gains fertile ground; what was propped up by ego is dissolved. To deepen the lesson, the Sun and Moon form the apex of a Yod with Pluto in Aquarius and Saturn-Neptune at 0–1° Aries. This “Finger of God” points toward accountability and right action.
Meanwhile Lilith in Scorpio shares secrets with Venus in Cancer, loosening knots in relationships and revealing hidden motives. Pay attention to what surfaces Tuesday through Thursday as the Moon kisses Jupiter, Venus, and Mercury in turn: messages arrive, feelings are clarified, doors swing open.
This week is your sacred cleanse—use it wisely, because the choices you affirm now will echo through the coming eclipse season. Focus on purity, purpose, and the power of service.
Speaking of change – are you living in your Right and Perfect Place? AstroCartoGraphy is a specialized branch of astrology that shows your best paces ton the earth to live and travel to.
