The Week Ahead for Libra
Monday, August 24th – Sunday, August 30th
The Sun has only just begun its transit of the obscure twelfth house, but already you may be feeling a little less focussed and not quite on top of your game. Ideally, you should be replenishing your physical, emotional and spiritual resources in the late-August-mid-September period; as it is, Friday’s lunar eclipse could be a warning sign that you are running on low. Full moons up the emotional ante so do your best not to overreact to events that come out of left field. Your first impression is probably not correct or at least overly skewed in one direction.
Take the pedal off the metal.

Monday, August 17th – Sunday, August 23rd
With Neptune and Saturn playing equal roles in the astrology, don’t be surprised if you feel bewitched, bothered and bewildered! While Neptune may be inspiring doubts on the one hand and great expectations on the other, Saturn is endeavouring to bring reality to bear. It is possible that you will feel let down by someone or unfairly treated by an organization, but getting to the truth of the matter is going to be difficult. For now, hold onto what you know to be true. By contrast a dream of an offer could be in the pipeline. Nevertheless, facts talk. Reality matters.
Facts talk.

The Month Ahead for Libra
August 2026
Put all thoughts of a quiet August behind you. This is one big, happening month. Offers to do something you’ve never done before, meetings with people who open your eyes to undreamed of possibilities and, in general, events that surprise and unsettle you could be on the agenda. And some Librans will be making a major life change. Is it a good month? Yes, if you’re prepared to take something of a risk but not if you try to hold back the tide of change. On or near the 28th, a situation that you thought was of little importance may turn out to be a game-changer.

The Year Ahead for Libra
There were hints of things to come last year, and they are here with bells on in 2026… Uranus will establish itself in an area in which it can broaden your horizons in a variety of ways – travel, skills and experience – enabling some of you to spread your influence and attain a higher, even a global profile. Yet both these planetary changes will involve disruption. You may have to make a long-distance move or end a partnership, but what is in store for you necessitates a sacrifice. Front of the queue here are September-born Librans; the October birthdays have a smoother ride yet not quite as many dreamy events.
