Libra Weekly Horoscope for the Week of August 17, 2026

Moving into the new week with the Moon in Libra will always be an advantage. While an ordinary monthly event, this is something that every four weeks brings a chance to check in, get your personal bearings and become more emotionally and intuitively engaged and aware. The difference this time is that the Moon is not on its own, having returned over the weekend to find Venus, the planet that rules the heart and your ruling planet here. With the Sun not returning to begin your birthday month and new solar year until the September equinox each year, this is early for Venus to return. So early that she will eventually be forced to slow down and wait for the Sun, something that instead of racing through in 24 days, will keep her here for five weeks and then, a retrograde turn will bring her back in October and then she won't leave again until December. This is giving you plenty of time to give your heart a voice and a say in what you want from the coming year. At the same time, Venus' partnership with the planets on the playful, creative and adventurous side of life's fence is keeping things balanced as Mars fires things up professionally.
