The honest horoscope
Libra horoscope for August 2027
Libra, August is mostly supportive, and more of it is about friends and hopes than anything else. Until 22 August the Sun is supportive for friends and hopes, and so are Venus until 20 August, the solar eclipse on 2 August and Mercury from 2 to 16 August. The month’s main supportive date is the lunar eclipse on 17 August, for play and romance — a lunar eclipse is a marker for what has been building. On 10 August Saturn turns retrograde, tense for partners and agreements. All month Mars, in Libra itself, is tense.
