Today's Virgo Horoscope from Cafe Astrology
August 17, 2024
With Venus in your sign these days, dear Virgo, you take more time to enjoy yourself, which boosts your confidence. However, with a minor challenging aspect between Venus and Pluto today, it can temporarily be difficult to see beyond immediate desires and sensations, which can lead to chasing short-term goals that are unlikely to satisfy. However, this transit can bring on an itch that helps you identify a true, perhaps buried desire. With a Mercury-Uranus square also in play as the day advances, something communicated can stir up tension or defensiveness. Consider whether it's better to correct errors or ignore them and move on. Keep in mind that misunderstandings are more likely if you rush communications or plans. Unexpected results or communications that interrupt the flow can be in frustrating focus. Ideally, something random could stir an instrumental insight or perspective. You'd be wise to take some time to regroup and recoup your mental energy.

The Astrology of Today – All Signs
Horoscope for All on Saturday, August 17, 2024
Venus and Pluto form a sesquiquadrate aspect today, pointing to underlying tensions in our social interactions and relationships.
- Feelings of jealousy and possessiveness can be brewing just under the surface of things, and they are directly proportional to our fear of losing something or someone.
- Manipulation can color relationships, or financial tensions emerge.
- Still, it can also be a time to recognize our suppressed needs and desires.
- Getting into a healthier relationship with these buried needs can help, and later today, the Moon's alignment with Pluto can invite us to explore our less apparent ambitions.
- The Moon continues its transit of cautious Capricorn until 5:45 PM EDT, when it moves into Aquarius, and we awaken to possible ways to improve our lives and make progress.
- The Aquarius Moon stirs our desire to mingle and share.
- The Moon is void from 4:44 PM EDT, with the Moon's last aspect before changing signs (a sextile to Neptune), until the Moon enters Aquarius at 5:45 PM EDT.

This Month: Virgo
August 2024 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Virgo:
August is a strong month for taking a break, reorienting yourself, and exploring your goals, dear Virgo, although communication may not always be straightforward. Some form of retreat is welcome. Later in the month, however, activity increases, and so does your taste for it!
Take extra time to yourself for rest and reflection with the Sun in the sign behind yours until the 22nd. This is a time for releasing, letting go, purging, and healing. The New Moon happening in this sector on the 4th encourages you to put certain outdated ventures or situations behind you.
The day after this New Moon, Mercury, your planetary ruler, turns retrograde. Reassessing certain projects, alliances, goals, or attachments can be in focus. Although it will return to your privacy sector from the 14th to the 28th, Mercury begins its retrograde in your sign. For the best results, communicate, but avoid publicizing ideas until you are clear about them. Your voice and curiosity are stronger, but there may be the need to look to the past for answers before pushing forward. Watch for talking about something prematurely.
Certainly, conversations and interactions can be tricky in spots. Some personal plans may stall or appear to move backward when, in fact, they can benefit from a review. There will be times when pausing and allowing your emotions to catch up with your mind can serve you well. As such, delays occurring now can be blessings in disguise. Decision-making may be challenging but probably only requires more time. Your mind may be looping back to the same old problems. Factor in your plans that some of the decisions made and projects started in July can come up for review.
Indeed, there can be information clogs until next month, but the pause can help you catch up and make different choices and important edits. This pause in communication is not a setback in the long run, but a chance to reassess and make more informed decisions.
Retrograde Mercury retreats into your privacy sector on the 14th, and more rumination is likely for the remainder of this cycle (until the 28th). Looking at past projects with new eyes can figure strongly.
While this introspective theme is real and important, there are a couple of signs that the world wants your involvement this month! Venus in your sign from the 4th to the 29th is particularly suitable for showcasing your appeal. People enjoy your company. Mars at the top of your solar chart all month suggests you're not only in demand socially but professionally as well.
Mars in your solar tenth house stirs your ambitions to perform, and you continue to take a hands-on, active role in pursuing your larger goals. It's a period for connecting with the need to set longer-term objectives and actively pursuing them.
Your powers of attraction run high with Venus in your sign most of the month (from the 4-29). You open yourself to pleasure and love, and your affections are strong and clear. People notice and want you more than usual. You might feel more attractive from the inside out or project more warmth.
You could also be more self-indulgent, or your desire for comfort or luxury items is hearty from the 4-29. Venus in your sign brings you out of your protective shell with more willingness (and the required inner clarity) to express your feelings. It encourages your confidence in what you have to offer the world. Make time and room for improvising and enjoying yourself.
Health or work matters can reach a turning point around the 19th. If your work or daily regimens have become too monotonous or taken a toll on your spirits, circ*mstances now gently nudge you to make needed changes. It's an excellent time to recognize the desire or need to begin a new self-improvement program. This potential for personal growth can be a source of motivation and inspiration, making you feel more driven and optimistic.
Nevertheless, balancing your relationships or relationship goals with career goals and responsibilities to the outside world can be a challenge, reflected in a Jupiter-Saturn square this month. These life departments clash or compete at the moment! It can be a time of pressure coming from various camps in your life.
The latter part of August finds you coming out of retreat, ideally feeling renewed and refreshed. In truth, Venus in your sign much of the month brings you attention. However, you're more likely to be feeling it once the Sun enters your sign on the 22nd. Your desire to interact is emerging. This is a time for getting noticed, making an impression, and taking charge of your personal life. It's a time of increased initiative and personal presence.
Vesta enters your sign on the 24th, and your planetary ruler turns direct on the 28th, pointing further to more clarity and even a mission that motivates you in the last few days of the month. You're gaining an excellent ability to pace yourself and pour your energies into constructive activities.

This Year: Virgo
2024 Yearly Horoscope Overview
You are building your skill set in 2024, dear Virgo, and you blossom with your work, reputation, or life path later in the year. Jupiter smiles on you favorably until later May, and you approach minor inconveniences with a positive attitude. It’s a good time for morale boosts.
You are more intellectually curious this year, and you may have opportunities to expand your horizons and connect with interesting people and topics. There can be opportunities to travel, take a detour, or otherwise enjoy mind-expanding and different experiences. People and activities outside of your norm can profoundly affect or inspire you.
Balancing your attention in different areas of your life is a good idea. You may become so caught up in your career, projects, responsibilities, or outer image this year that order around the home might sometimes slide! Regarding love in 2024, casual relationships feel less pressured. Partnerships, on the other hand, demand more maturity. At times, they feel as if they’re being tested, or you’re taking your committed relationship goals far more seriously. You could feel that if you don’t have a good partnership, you’d rather not have any. It’s possible you strengthen a key relationship. While it’s not always easy going, you’ll reap the rewards later. On the other hand, there can be some seriousness as you find your way and discover what it is you truly need and want from a significant other.
There can also be times when it’s difficult to balance your relationship and career goals or responsibilities. A partner or significant person in your life could question your ambitions or vie for your attention, competing with your special interest in your career or outside responsibilities. Others’ expectations of you or their limits, rules, and critical observations can impact your performance. The challenge is finding a balance between the two worlds instead of pushing or rebelling against either.
Uranus traveling in harmony with your sign all year is an uplifting and energizing influence. You’re open to experience and adventure beyond the usual routine. Doing home life differently, moving out of a neighborhood, or expanding your family/home can figure strongly.
You’ll feel more deserving of the recognition you receive with Jupiter at the top of your solar chart starting May 25th. You’re ready to reach higher, and you’re received exceptionally well. It’s an influential period for your career or powerful for your reputation and life path goals. Work is transforming in all the right ways.
It can be a time of promotion or some form of pleasant culmination in your professional life. A positive attitude toward work brings great rewards, as do expressing your integrity and honesty. Connections that further your career goals are in focus. You can feel much excitement about pursuing or achieving your longer-term goals and ambitions.
Life challenges you to improve your financial picture this year, and your relationship with health, work, daily routines, and wellness is evolving in empowering ways.

2024 Love Horoscope for Virgo
Jupiter continues to transit your spirit and adventure sector until May 25th this year, dear Virgo, and its harmony with your sign is strong forreducing stress or boosting your outlook. It’s a wonderfully supportive aspect, even if it isn’t explicitly connected to relationships, since it boosts your morale and allows you to have some fun.
Your outlook is more robust, positive, and optimistic during this period. This influence adds a nice layer or padding to your very spirit. It’s not that changes won’t get to you, but that you are taking things in stride–you can see the big picture.
Still, Saturn transits your partnership sector all year, where it visits until 2026. This transit puts some pressure on committed or one-to-one relationships…cont’d

Special note concerning Covid-19
Special note:
Astrological transits continue in their cyclical ways no matter the current situation. They should always be adapted to what’s going on in your life in sensible ways. This applies at all times, but is particularly relevant now during this health crisis. During the quarantines, if the planetary transits are suggesting it’s a great time to socialize, for example, it makes sense to adapt this to online socializing. Let’s be safe and protect one another through social distancing, when possible. Much love, Annie (March 18, 2020)
My heart goes out to all those experiencing difficulty. Love, Annie (April 1, 2020)
Here’s to a fun, happy, and successful day!
Note: Read the sections for both your Sun Sign and Ascendant for a better picture of what lies ahead for the day. For example, if you are a Virgo with a Leo Ascendant, read the forecast for both Virgo and Leo.
