Your Star Sign’s Tarot Horoscope for August 2024

Get ready for a new month filled with celestial energy and tarot insights. As we step into August, the New Moon in Leo on August 4th brings a surge of passion and playfulness. However, Mercury Retrograde begins the following day, potentially complicating plans and increasing stress. By August 19th, the Aquarius Full Moon will encourage unconventional solutions, while Virgo season, starting on August 22nd, reminds us that the devil is in the detail.

Below, you’ll find your star sign’s tarot horoscope for August 2024, with three tarot cards drawn for each sign and their meanings explained.

Aries (March 21 - April 20)

Tarot Cards: Ace of Swords, Ten of Wands, Page of Coins

Meaning: Soften your approach to achieve better results. Your natural forcefulness, driven by your Mars ruler, can sometimes tip into aggression. The Ace of Swords and Ten of Wands suggest you’re at your wits' end about something this August. The Page of Coins advises a more subtle approach. You’ll achieve more by understanding and listening rather than challenging. Find a collaborative resolution.

Taurus (April 21 - May 21)

Tarot Cards: Six of Swords, Three of Swords, Eight of Coins
