August is here, bringing sunny skies and pleasant astro-weather! Your Leo season is about to get even Leo-ier when the Sun and the Moon line up in the sky to form a New Moon in Leo on August 8. Embrace those lionlike vibes!

The next major astrological event of the month is the Full Moon in Aquarius on August 22. Sound familiar? This is actually the second Full Moon in Aquarius in a row, following the last Full Moon in Aquarius on July 23. This is a rare astrological event, sometimes called a Blue Moon. No, the Moon won't actually look blue. But don't be surprised if you notice familiar themes, ideas, issues, and people coming back around. ("Deja Vu" by Olivia Rodrigo plays softly in the background.)

On the very same day (if you forgot, that's, August 22), the Sun moves from Leo into Virgo, ending Leo season 2021 and kicking off Virgo season 2021. The Sun joins Mercury and Mars in this practical earth sign, bringing back-to-school energy even if you've long since graduated.
