August 2025: Your Monthly Forecast Revealed

August 2025: Your Monthly Forecast Revealed

The themes for August are “Discernment, Boundaries, Discipline”

August 2025 Energy Overview

There is a lot going on this month. Not only do we have the support to go inward and scour out the last of the past, but we are also needing to stay present and attentive to the emerging themes that will be playing out during the upcoming eclipses. You will need to use plenty of discernment to keep yourself on track as well as setting good boundaries against old pesky patterns and some strong discipline to carry it all through. Whether these are small refinements or more significant life choices, this is a good month for continuing on your path of positive personal evolution.

Simplicity is one of the themes that is surfacing to be contemplated. How can you simplify your life? What can you reframe, reset, let go of or reconfigure to reduce or eliminate the stress that comes with drama, complication, attachment and energy that is not yours? This is where discernment and boundaries come in. You may get to a point in your self evaluation of truth that says, “Enough is enough”. This could be around a habit, a pattern of response to others, a relationship dynamic, too much responsibility, too much accommodating another’s set of values different from your own, and a variety of other situations you have been putting up with. This is the past you will be evaluating this month.

We have been deep in the process of observing and dealing with ancestral patterns, at times even processing them physically. This month provides an opportunity to heal and repattern what no longer supports who we truly are. Old patterns are stubborn and you will need clarity and discipline to do what it takes to prepare yourself for the future that you want.

Let talk about simplicity. What does it mean? The definition is the state of being simple, uncomplicated or uncompounded and it comes with clarity and directness. Simplifying your life is not about getting rid of what you do. It is more of a shift in how you approach life and how you do things. If you feel a task is complicated, you are probably complicating it through overthinking, worry, anxiety, excessive hypervigilance and obsessive tracking. The fear of failure is another element that tends to lead to complication, assumption and expectation. To simplify, you have to have the courage to trust the process to unfold perfectly if it is the right action.

Simplifying your life may mean that you have to take something off your plate that is not important or of value. Perhaps it is connected to an old habit or something that you could delegate to someone else or simply to eliminate if it does not serve you. We have spoken many times of the need to declutter ourselves as a culture of all that we have accumulated, not only in the physical realm, but the emotional, mental and energetic fields as well. How much shame do some of us still carry? How much disappointment, resentment, unprocessed emotions, mental opinions, unfinished business, regrets, identities, old dreams and longings are still in our field? This is all clutter that leads to complication, stress, confusion, despair and a feeling of powerlessness.

This is a very tall order but we must drop the fear, disengage from the clutter, and begin to trust in our own medicine and ability to create the right next step. It is crucial that we get our ducks in a row prior to the next eclipse season in order to take advantage of the amazing opportunities coming our way. If you are only focused on what has you worried, anxious and fearful instead of what is new, exciting and inspires you, you will miss out on the opportunities available for growth and expansion into more love, abundance and creativity. It takes discipline to stay positive. It takes discernment to see through the illusion and to say no when appropriate. And, setting good boundaries around what you know you need at this time as you simplify is essential to your well-being this month.

How the month shows up:

YOU PERSONALLY
It is a month to turn any old wounds into powerful medicine through the lessons learned, the karma completed and the truth told. Watch for projections from others and judgments that stem from their own process. It is a good idea not to take anything personally and to use good discernment and boundaries to get clarity around what is yours and what is not, and then to protect yourself from those projections. This is not to say that you need to be a hermit and isolate from others, but simply to stand your ground around your own truth and avoid being triggered.

There is potential for emotional healing and maturity as you take responsibility for your past, and in forgiving it, you make way for a better future, balanced and more aligned with spirit. There may be days where you simply do not know where and who you are. They may be filled with doubt and confusion as to your role and purpose. This is all part of navigating times of upheaval leading to deep transformation and change. It is best to be proactive with the process by honoring what has shaped you, honoring the lessons and the karma, the challenges and the successes. Allow your identity to shift simply with the intention to be more aligned, more in truth and more authentic. It is a simple as that.

If your life is great the way it is, this of this month as an opportunity to refine and improve through discernment, boundaries and discipline.

RELATIONSHIPS

All relationships have been challenged recently, especially your relationship with yourself. Your relationship with yourself informs how you are in all of your relationships. If there is a dysfunctional dynamic and an old pattern, look to yourself first. What are your beliefs about who you are? Whole? Lovable? Competent? Worthy? Powerful? Deserving? Fully realized? If you work on this most important relationship, the results will affect all other relationships in your life. It does not matter where the pattern came from or what past experience shaped your beliefs. What matters is what you do in the present. We have great supportive energies and influences this month for scouring out the old debris so we can fill ourselves up with new energy and purpose. It will take discipline to be present with the process and to pay attention to what is presenting itself either as an opportunity or to be noticed and cleared.

Your relationships with others may go through a growth cycle as well. You may need to put boundaries around certain dynamics that no longer feel right and you may want to expand your ability to take in more support, love and acceptance from others where it feels right. Boundaries can go either way. Loosen them where you need to and tighten them where you know it is the right thing to do.

HEALTH AND THE PHYSICAL BODY

Listen to your body as it is a powerful barometer of what is happening on a larger scale and in the bigger picture. Bones, joints, teeth and digestion are the systems seriously engaged in this process of release and re-patterning. It is very important to move the body in any way you can during this time. Exercise will also move energy and unblock places of stagnation. We also suggest acupuncture or any other modality that can help move energy. In addition it is recommended that you really look at your habits regarding your body, not just physical, but mental thoughts and emotions as well. What can you change? What no longer feels good? What do you know to be harmful instead of supportive?

Self-care this month must include ways to support better habits and changes that eliminate addictive behaviors. Remember that what you set up for yourself this month will greatly affect what you can manifest in the near future. Look at this time as a preparation for the next eclipse season that will surely bring tension and change. If you don’t want to be caught unawares, be proactive.

BUSINESS PARTNERSHIPS AND PROJECTS

The word for this month is SIMPLIFY. We have put way too much on our plates, especially with projects and lofty goals. Most of you are under pressure and stress you don’t notice as you have adapted to expectations of productivity. We suggest you take any retrograde time frame and use it to destress, simplify and bring more ease and balance into your business and work life. If you have to delay a project, do so. We need to shift our relationship with time and get more synchronized with the natural cycles of the earth, the seasons, and our own healthy rhythms. Use discernment to identify where you have energy leaks, and then work with boundaries and discipline to support eliminating and keeping clear of them. Those of you in positions of leadership may have to impose new rules, especially around communication that goes nowhere.

On another note, this is a highly creative time where new ideas can take root with the right partnerships and the right purpose. So be open to new insights and creative problem solving. If it feels right, go for it!

ENVIRONMENT

The earth continues to respond to our need for a “shake up to wake up” to support change. The physical structure we all agree on is stubborn in its need to survive and hold on. Sometimes it takes intense weather and earth phenomena to distract us from our attachment to the way we expect things to be. This will continue throughout the year and as usual we recommend great flexibility. Lean into the adventure instead of resisting, and glean some creative inspiration from the amazing creativity of nature. Remember that this is a year of destructive/creative forces, two sides of the same coin. How can you use it in your own environment? Simplify your life by decluttering and getting rid of what you don’t love, making space for something new, be it an attitude, a relationship, a new couch, a new practice….

DATE AND TIME FRAMES

August 1-7:
Watch for themes emerging that may point to what may show up during the eclipses later this fall. This is also a window where a focus on grounding, personal truth and setting good boundaries will be beneficial. Stay present and pay attention to get a sense of whatever your personal process is. What is fair and balanced for you? What feels like it would give you more order and alignment in your life?

This is an internal time so make sure you take some time for yourself to listen to your own inner voice. There is a lot of external chatter, opinions and overthinking that can complicate your inner voice if you let it. How and what can you start to think about simplifying?

August 8-15:
This is a window that supports a reset, a recalibration, allowing for a more expanded sense of self. Using the energies of the Full Moon in Aquarius, we have an opportunity for stretching ourselves creatively beyond just the physical limitations of our beliefs. It is a great time of connecting with a higher spiritual sense of purpose and anchoring our own purpose and direction in this new alignment. Listen to your inner voice and intuition and embrace what needs to be healed, cleansed or reset as you set your intentions to move forward.

August 16-23:
This is a time of inner reflection, discernment, discipline and strengthening boundaries. It may not be comfortable, especially if you are being shown some truths you would rather not look at. A relationship, a responsibility, a dynamic, or something in your life may be due for a change. This is not a time to be impulsive, reactive or impatient. Take things as they come and trust that what is being shown is important. It is always your choice how to proceed with the information and experiences that come your way.

Keep your vibration as high as possible and stay out of judgment and blame. If you are emotionally triggered, allow the feelings to surface so you can understand and process them. Get help if needed. This is also a good time to revisit something you always wanted to do and never made time for. It could be a good time to reset a dream or a creative pursuit and give it another chance. Listen to your inner voice and allow yourself to be guided to what is calling to you at this time. Don’t be surprised if something old becomes new again.

August 24-31:
This is a time when the discipline, discernment and boundaries you have worked with all month will give you the opportunity to reset, simplify and refocus your path. Pay attention to insights, validation, sudden changes, things being rearranged for you that allow for a new opening, and support from unexpected sources. Watch for guidance and messages from your allies as they always seem to show up with clarity during windows of change. Let your intuition guide you and let go of resistance. Surrender to the flow with the intention to show up in your life with enthusiasm, inspiration, creativity and a sense of purpose. This last week sets the stage for the month of September and all the preparation needed for the upcoming changes.

Have a great month!

Blessings,
Lena
