The Week Ahead for Virgo
Monday, August 17th – Sunday, August 23rd
The ministry of disinformation is alive and well, so before you act on information make sure it is correct. Normally, Virgo is a stickler for detail but sometimes in examining the details you lose sight of the whole picture. The answer is to step back and wait until you can see the wood rather than the trees. On Sunday, the Sun will enter your sign illuminating the way forward, and you may be surprised at what comes to light. For now, replenish your physical, mental and spiritual resources alongside ensuring that any potential weak spots are secured.
Strengthening your position.

Monday, August 10th – Sunday, August 16th
There is a chance that the week will go by and nothing of note will happen. But it’s a small chance. A total solar eclipse and a string of other dynamic transits look set to awaken you to a new reality. You could have an epiphany or events may have an eye-opening effect on you. However, since the Sun is currently wending its way through the zone of secrets and shadows, it is possible that you cannot see where certain situations are heading or what you perceive as a minor development or casual conversation is more than it appears.
Nothing is for nothing.

The Month Ahead for Virgo
August 2026
Rest and relaxation are a top priority. This is a period of the year in which to recharge your physical, emotional and spiritual batteries. That said, there is more than one development that could get in the way of your perfect plans. (Who said nothing amazing ever happens to you?) There will be signs and signals of things to come earlier in the month, but by the 28th and the lunar eclipse, the cat will be out of the bag. Whether you decide to embark on a course that shocks other people, or vice versa, and someone throws you for a loop, things may never be the same again.

The Year Ahead for Virgo
2026 is a year of golden opportunities – make the most of events on or near 18 July and 4 November – and while you can learn from the past, you don’t want to live there. Under 2026’s powerful alignments, your happiness lies in going after what (or who) you believe in, even if it means throwing up a piece of your past and entering foreign territory. From July, Jupiter will be moving through the twelfth house in preparation for its transit of Virgo from summer 2027. In tandem, you will be in a period of preparation. Not only are health and fitness important issues to get behind, but the endeavours you begin in the second half of 2026 will take a year to mature.
