Aries week horoscope August 11—17, 2025

Dear Aries,

This week, August 11–17, could feel like someone pressed the fast-forward button on your life. Mercury retrograde finally ends on August 11, restoring balance between your emotions and your plans. Better late than never, right? If the first half of summer felt sluggish, scattered, or emotionally heavy, you might notice the pace picking up and clarity returning as soon as this Monday.

Mercury’s three-week retrograde, which began July 18, has been moving backward through your 5th house — the realm of passion, pleasure, romance, and creativity. It’s likely this cooled the romantic heat or added extra layers of complication to your personal life. An ex may have reappeared looking for a second chance, or old drama may have resurfaced in a current relationship, stirring up misunderstandings. Either way, as Mercury turns direct, the fog begins to lift. This is your chance to step out of the emotional turbulence (hopefully without too many battle scars) and reclaim your joy. Love and passion are back on the table — and you’re ready to make the most of them.

Horoscope for the week December 1—7, 2025

>>

August 12 brings an entirely different kind of warmth. Venus and Jupiter align in your 4th house, casting a glow over home, family, and your inner world. It’s the perfect day to slow down, spend time with loved ones, and pour energy into making your space more beautiful and welcoming — whether through home improvements, fresh décor, or tending your garden. This aspect also favors joyful family events, from long-awaited reunions to heartfelt reconciliations. You may feel a deep sense of gratitude for what you have and an urge to create even more comfort and harmony in your personal environment. It’s also a lucky day for buying property or starting renovations, but be mindful of overspending on beauty and comfort — balance is key.

August 16, the Third Quarter Moon in Gemini, activates your 3rd house of communication, learning, and short trips. This is a wrap-up phase — the time to complete, review, and refine projects involving information, writing, negotiations, or local connections. Important conversations could help clear the air or bring closure to lingering issues. You might also need to give extra attention to relationships with siblings, neighbors, or your immediate community. It’s an excellent moment to finish a course of study or brush up on your skills, but resist the urge to jump into brand-new commitments. Words will carry weight now — they can heal, but they can also trigger tensions — so choose them thoughtfully. Move with more deliberation than haste, and you’ll end the week feeling accomplished and at peace.
