Your August 2026 Horoscope for Cancer
by Susan MillerOne aspect that makes this solar eclipse in Leo on August 12 so special is that Mercury will be in friendly agreement with Neptune, the planet of the arts, in your tenth house of professional fame. This suggests you may be able to obtain a contract for a new project with a good client.
The month’s second eclipse, a full moon lunar eclipse in Pisces on August 27-28, will be the second to the last one in the Pisces-Virgo family of eclipses. This one is due to be challenging because Uranus in Gemini will be on one of his rampages and in hard angle to be the Sun in Virgo and the full moon in Pisces. This sets up a squabble among mutable signs. However, the problem that comes up will be a little easier to fix than it would be if it involved the less flexible fixed signs.
Still, I doubt this eclipse will be easy. The key to untangling a mutable full moon lunar eclipse like this one is to talk through any challenges and look for an answer no one has come up with so far. You may need to travel, but I am not sure that the trip will go smoothly with the planets kicking up so much dust.
