Pisces Monthly Love Horoscope

Love turns serious as the month opens with Venus hunkering down in Virgo and your commitment zone. You need to know: Is this relationship going anywhere? If so, where? Fortunately, assertive Mars is in Gemini and your emotionally intelligent fourth house until August 11. You’ll have the courage and capacity to talk through every possible scenario before you cut and run. If your relationship is solid, start talking about romantic future plans.

On August 6, Venus relocates to Libra and your eighth house of perma-bonding. Between now and September 10, you have a rare opportunity to create a loving, committed union. But you can't build a solid foundation if you're sitting on the fence. If you're happily coupled, Venus in Libra can bring your partnership to a new level of closeness.

Magnetic Venus burning through Libra and your soul-stirring, mystical eighth house, can amplify your seductive powers. Solo Fish might meet their "other half" and connect on an intellectual level. Coupled Pisces can also benefit from this diplomatic vibe by smoothing over any issues within the relationship. Thoughtful gestures, like picking up your S.O.'s favorite takeout or supporting them through a goal, will go a long way. 

On August 12, the year’s only Leo new moon—a total solar eclipse—beams into your sixth house of order. Watch out for frustration that could spring for trying to handle too many details at once. You’re also at risk for getting into one of those endless argument loops, where the harder you try to debate your way out of it, the deeper a hole you dig yourself into. If you find yourself overthinking or on the verge of a shouting match, do something totally novel. Put the topic on ice for a few hours (as best you can) and get out in nature for physical activity and a mindset refresh!

With Mars energizing Cancer and your fifth house of romance and personality from August 11, you’ll be drawn to artistic pursuits and people. Trust your instincts and let your imagination run wild. Explore new ways of thinking. More than just fleeting thoughts, they could be guiding you toward people that resonate with your true desires. If you’re feeling drawn to a particular person, lean into that pull.

The month ends with you as its main character, thanks to an August 28 lunar eclipse in Pisces. What do YOU want? Set aside thoughts about other people and their needs and tune into yourself. Not always easy for a self-sacrificing Fish, but an empowering step that will actually make all of your relationships better.
