Aries Monthly Money Horoscope

August 2026

This isn't exactly a slow month or point of the financial year, but a month where there is a chance to begin a transition from one side of the financial fence to the other. Until now, all the planetary activity has been on the income side of the financial fence and not just this year, with Uranus in your income sector for seven years by the time he left at the end of April. Since then the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars and even the dwarf planet Ceres have moved through, all keeping things active while adding their own influence. When Mars left at the end of June, this should have ended all planetary activity on the income side of the financial fence. Instead, nine days before Mars left the asteroid Chiron, the planet of wisdom, knowledge and healing returned for the first time in five decades. Chiron is not here to make things happen or to advance things, with his focus more on learning and with so much water having passed under the bridge, there is a lot to process. Chiron's retrograde turn on 4th August will begin to focus more on reviewing the journey so far but will also see him retrograde back out next month. The Moon's return from 5th August to 7th August will help with that transition, while ensuring your nose for money is sharp in the lead up to Venus, the planet of money's departure from your work sector on 7th August. Meanwhile, while there is no planetary activity on the other side of the financial fence, the side where it is more about what you do with and how you manage the money you have, it is waiting in the wings for its turn. While not returning to your financial sector until next month, instead of racing through in 24 days, a retrograde turn will keep Venus here for the majority of the rest of the year. Until then, the Moon's return to your financial sector from 18th August to 20th August will be a chance to sharpen your financial instincts and check in on money matters.
