Choose your peace, sweet Taurus. Mercury in Leo and Mars in Libra will help you improve matters within your relationship and home life. While this may bring about a dramatic shift in your relationship, you are being urged to choose your peace on August 13.
Improving matters aren’t always about continuously working to achieve something, but knowing when to walk away or move forward. Be sure that you’re confident in what you deserve, and don’t be afraid to take matters into your own hands.
Gemini

You need to share your feelings, Gemini. The energy of your Wednesday love horoscope is favorable for romantic commitment and discussing your relationship, but be sure to be honest about your thoughts and feelings.
Be sure to focus on what is happening instead of letting frustrations arise and making it about another issue. Be transparent with your partner on August 13, not just about how you feel, but also about where you want your relationship to go.
Cancer

Get to know your truth, Cancer. You are being guided to advocate for the love that you know you deserve while also working to create a life of value.
On August 13, you're more focused on domestic matters, whether it involves specific aspects of your home or relationship. The core of this transformation, however, is discovering your inner truth.
A relationship must be based on what you genuinely need and deserve; otherwise, it doesn't stand a chance.
Leo

Leo, your August 13 love horoscope asks you to strive for balance between speaking up for yourself and working together with your partner.
The recent Mercury retrograde in your zodiac sign probably brought up a new awareness that you can now share with that special person in your life.
There may be a need for accountability or an apology on Wednesday, which could help you and your partner feel more confident in continuing a relationship.
Virgo

You need to be sure you’re listening to your inner self, Virgo. Mercury in Leo helps you tune into your intuition and heal what has disconnected you from this part of yourself.
However, with Mars in Libra on August 13, you should find greater ease in this as you will begin to believe your feelings are valid. Base decisions on what truly matters, rather than the financial status of a partner. (In this case, love truly is what matters most.)
Libra

You already know what you must do, Libra. You are being urged to advocate for yourself and what you want from love. While this brings a newfound strength in your romantic life, it also affects your life path.
Use the energy on August 13 to have any difficult conversations, especially those with a romantic partner or friends, to set the bar for how you want to move forward.
You’ve given enough of yourself away to others; on August 13, 2025, it’s time to make sure that everyone in your life is there for the right reasons.
Scorpio

You don’t need anyone else’s approval, Scorpio. Understandably, you want others to agree or be happy for you in this new era, but you can’t base your decisions on this desire.
Try to adopt an unapologetic approach to your life today, drawing on this energy. Remind yourself that as an adult, you don’t need permission or approval to do what is best for yourself.
On August 13, you may make a radical decision that will ultimately bring you the love and happiness you dream of.
Sagittarius

Forge new connections, Sagittarius. With Mercury now direct in Leo, it’s becoming clear what you must do and what has been lacking in your life. As Mercury aligns with Mars, you are being urged to focus on making new connections in your life.
If you’re single, don’t worry about whether someone is a romantic connection or not. Instead, embrace the newness that comes from changing your inner circle.
If you’re traveling, remain aware of who you connect with, as you could meet someone who will have a lasting impact on your life.
Capricorn
