Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday 25 August 2026
Aries    Aries   Mar 21 - Apr 19
Two days after the Sun left a playful and creative part of your chart and returned to your busy work sector, Mercury follows suit. This is the point in the year when things will take a busier turn and while the new working week has already gotten off to an empowered start on the income, work and career fronts, with Jupiter staying on, there is no danger of life becoming all work and no play. With Jupiter not only in a playful and creative part of your chart until July 2027 but drawing closer to a friendly aspect to Saturn in Aries over the weekend, his resolve is only going to strengthen.
 
Taurus    Taurus   Apr 20 - May 20
The last thing the Moon will do before leaving your home and family sector today is cross the lunar nodes, less than a month after they began their 20 month policing of your work/life balance. With Mercury joining the Sun in a playful and creative part of your chart, the Moon leaves an adventurous part of your chart and begins the lead up to what will be a powering up on the income, work and career fronts in the heart of the working week. Both sides of life’s fence are showing their true colours and it makes sense why your work/life balance has become so important.
 
Gemini    Gemini   May 21 - Jun 21
While the timing of the Moon’s return to your sector of adventure, travel, learning and discovery today not only means that it will move through in the heart of the working week, but this is going to power up the whole playful, creative and adventurous side of life’s fence. Yet three days before the Moon is set to return to your career sector as an eclipsing Full Moon that could be a wildcard, just as the professional gods are calling for a wait and see approach. As the throwback from the North Node’s departure from your career sector at the end of last month, expect the unexpected, with these adventurous lunar vibes could be the right distraction at the right time.
 
Cancer    Cancer   Jun 22 - Jul 22
Mercury is on the move today and the process as he leaves your income sector and returns to your communication sector, he is following in the Sun’s footsteps, two days after he did the same. While only in your income sector for 15 days, as he hands the reins to Jupiter, whose quest for income growth and expansion will continue for the rest of this year and into the second half of next year, it is with the smart head for money needed to keep your head in the game and your feet on the ground. As he returns to your communication sector, this is a chance for the planet of communication to spend the next 17 days doing what he does best.
 
Leo    Leo   Jul 23 - Aug 22
After just 15 days Mercury leaves Leo today, having stayed on an additional two days after the Sun left use his smart and practical influence to tie up the loose ends of the birthday month and the launch of this new solar year. This won’t end all planetary activity in Leo, but rather than the launch of a new solar year, this is when the focus shifts onto Jupiter and the launch of a new 12 year Jupiter cycle of expansion that will continue through to the early days of your birthday month next year. Meanwhile, as Mercury follows the Sun in your income sector, it is with a smart head for money and a chance to get your head in the game.
 
Virgo    Virgo   Aug 23 - Sep 22
Two days after the Sun returned to Virgo to begin your birthday month and new solar year, he is joined today by Mercury, the planet of communication and smart thinking and your ruling planet. While only in Virgo for 17 days this year, this is long enough to get your head in the game, ideas on the table and the communication lines open. The latter couldn’t come with better timing, for this is a chance to get the communication lines open before the Moon returns to your relationship sector later in the week as an eclipsing Full Moon.
 
Libra    Libra   Sep 23 - Oct 23
Heart of the working week or not, as the Moon returns to a playful and creative part of your chart, this will have a domino effect and over the coming days, this will see the whole playful, creative and adventurous side of life’s fence fire up. At the same time, this first visit since Venus, the planet of love returns to Libra will see them connect over the coming days, something that along with the Moon’s return to your relationship sector over the weekend, will help with her mission to update your personal, romantic and relationship desires and expectations for the coming year.
 
Scorpio    Scorpio   Oct 24 - Nov 21
Two days after the Sun left your career sector, as Mercury leaves today, this marks a turning point in the professional year itself. The Sun’s departure was the point in each year when the solar spotlight will always shift off your career and professional situation, matters and options and Mercury’s departure today, while leaving you with a smart and practical edge and everything needed to keep your head in the game, should bring all planetary activity on the career front to an end. Instead, Mercury hands the reins to Jupiter, who is here for the long haul, is just days away from teaming up with Saturn in your work sector, with the big guns ready to take over.
 
Sagittarius    Sagittarius   Nov 22 - Dec 21
Two days after the Sun left your sector of adventure, travel, learning and discovery and returned to your career sector, something that at this time each year will see the solar spotlight shift from one side of life’s fence to the other, he is followed today by Mercury. Even though Mercury will return with the smart and practical influence that will take advantage of an already positive start to the week on the income, work and career fronts, this won’t see life suddenly become all work and no play. Instead, some of the most powerful planets are teaming up to keep the playful, creative and adventurous side of life’s fence powered up.
 
Capricorn    Capricorn   Dec 22 - Jan 19
It was last week that the Moon and Venus got the kind of pushback that may have put your work/life balance to the test, but it is only now that you are going to appreciate how important that reminder was. Venus’ clash with Saturn, the hard taskmaster of the cosmos made that message hard to forget and just as well, for just as Mercury joins the Sun in a powering up of the playful, creative and adventurous side of life’s fence, things are coming together on the income, work and career fronts. While not in direct competition, the key to having it all is having the right work/life balance.
 
Aquarius    Aquarius   Jan 20 - Feb 18
After just 15 days in your relationship sector Mercury, the planet of communication leaves today and his final hours could be some of the most significant. Still separating from a friendly aspect to the planets in your communication sector that will stay on to keep the communication lines open, Mercury will spend his final hours crossing the lunar nodes, putting their policing of a balance between your own and your relationship needs in the spotlight again. With the Moon returning to Aquarius today to do the same, this gives Mercury something to give a voice to.
 
Pisces    Pisces   Feb 19 - Mar 20
Two days after the Sun returned to your relationship sector, something that at this time each year will always shift the solar spotlight onto your relationships, Mercury returns and the timing couldn’t be better. While only here for 17 days, like the Sun, Mercury is going to spend his early days at a friendly aspect to Chiron, in retrograde motion in your communication sector. In the lead up to an eclipsing Full Moon in Pisces that could see your own and your relationship needs clash, this is a chance for the planet of communication and healing to first work together to get the communication lines open.
