Cosmic Insights – August 25, 2025 August 25, 2025

By Veronica G. Hartman

The celestial week of August 25, 2025, begins with the Sun rising in mental and crafty Virgo, illuminating an opportunity to bring order to chaos by connecting to a sense of inner guidance.  The personification of Virgo has a unique talent and ability to bring order to chaos through organization, mental clarity, and an attitude to get the job done correctly with service and a smile.  Therefore, today, calm and inner guidance lay the groundwork to begin the workday with quiet leadership that others follow without question.

Mercury is the manager of Virgo and has finally completed a recent retrograde cycle in Leo, and is more than ready to experience the warmth of renewal as the air is cleared of resolved issues that have been building up relative to creative, romance, and children.

Meanwhile, the Moon is concluding a visit to earthy Virgo with Venus in Cancer, before it moves into Libra, potentially facilitating emotional healing in relationships.  Once the Moon enters Libra, it will help to deal with the brewing confrontations of Saturn and Neptune retrograde in Aries, quibbling over who has the authority to make responsible decisions about a vision for the future.  Fortunately, the Moon in Libra is an emotional diplomat that can listen to both sides before engaging Uranus in Gemini and Pluto retrograde in Aquarius to consider fair and innovative solutions that transform differences with a powerful perspective, instead of holding on to past positions that could inhibit the growth of the vision.

Shortly after, Venus strides into regal Leo with the confidence to explore expansive opportunities to create that vision with an expression of love that magnifies it into manifestation!  Thus, the next few weeks are a great opportunity to shine, doing what you love!  The key is to step back from the shadow of the ego, which may expect recognition or a reward for the effort expended, and create for the joy of creating!

In the early hours of August 27, Venus in Leo opposes Pluto retrograde in Aquarius, so there may be a come-apart relative to expansive spending for self-adornment.  The caveat is that the values of Venus are a mirror of oneself, often projected onto others.  Thus, consider the value of what is being projected, and own it as a characteristic of oneself, instead of attempting to gift it to others.  Then, it can become a gift to oneself that keeps on giving in value!

Later in the evening, the Moon dives into the emotional depths of powerful Scorpio with a desire to bare one’s soul with a trusted partner, which may trigger a passive-aggressive reaction as a defense mechanism to either protect the relationship or evade the issue.  However, Mars is the energy that Scorpio plays fire with, so even though Mars in Libra is adept at smoothing out troubled waters,  it may be wiser not the test them now.

The Moon in Scorpio has a full plate to handle with six other planets, so emotional patience may be wearing thin.  The first order of business is a yod formation with Saturn and Neptune retrograde in Aries, and Uranus in Gemini, so chattiness and a lack of commitment to actions will only result in an abrupt dismissal of all three until they can handle attitude adjustments with grace and different behaviors!  Then Venus in Leo comes under the emotional gun of the Moon in Scorpio regarding a difference in relationship values, which may cause an emotional drama-trauma that leaves deep battle scars.  Therefore, the rest of the week may be spent better with some emotional distance all the way around!
