Highlights of the week August 25 through 31, 2025 for Aries based on major astrological aspects.
August 25, Venus makes her graceful entrance into Leo, illuminating your passionate fifth house until September 19, 2025. This transit supercharges your world of romance, creativity, and pleasure. The only question is: what story do you want to write under the glow of the planet of love?
Will it be a whirlwind romance that sweeps you off your feet? A partner-in-adventure who makes life more vibrant and exciting? Or perhaps someone ready to take center stage in your heart? If you are already in a relationship, this Venus cycle can usher in a new chapter, reigniting the spark and passion in your union. At the core of it all, though, is a reminder from Venus: everything begins with self-love. Put at the top of your priority list whatever sets your heart racing—whether that’s a creative pursuit, an experience that brings you joy, or simply practices that make you feel alive. Venus in flamboyant Leo also heightens fertility, so if you’ve been thinking about starting or expanding your family, the weeks ahead may bring news worth celebrating.
Before Venus fully establishes her presence in Leo and your house of romance, she first highlights three pivotal aspects, setting the stage with a dramatic prologue to your unfolding love story.
On August 26, Venus forms a fiery trine with Saturn in Aries and your first house of identity. This brings your desires into sharp focus. What you want in love truly matters, and thanks to Saturn’s steadying influence, you now have the clarity and strength to voice those desires with confidence. Later that same day, Venus aligns with Neptune, also in your sign, dissolving the final barriers around your heart. This is your invitation to drop the armor, speak from the soul, and allow unfiltered emotion to guide you. It is a day when honesty and vulnerability pave the way to genuine, soulful connections.
By August 27, Venus faces off with Pluto in your eleventh house of friendships and social dynamics. Here, themes of trust, loyalty, and hidden power struggles rise to the surface. A friend’s opinion—or perhaps their interference—could reveal dynamics you hadn’t seen before. You may also notice where romance and social life collide in complicated, even messy ways. This cosmic triad urges you to find balance between self-expression and vulnerability, and to choose bonds that support your most authentic desires. Venus’s tour through Leo promises romance in full Technicolor, but only if you’re brave enough to reveal your true self.
And then comes Sunday. After days of running in too many directions or bouncing between extremes in classic Aries fashion, the cosmos asks you to pause. The quarter moon on August 31 rises in Sagittarius and your ninth house of expansion, inviting you to slow down, breathe, and see the bigger picture. This lunation is your reminder that there is more to life than the immediate moment—you are part of a larger journey. Take time to step back, recalibrate, and allow your vision of the future to inspire the steps you take today.
