Your zodiac sign's daily horoscope for Saturday, August 16, 2025:
Aries (March 21 - April 19)
Design: YourTango
Aries, your grand ambition may have pulled you away from the quieter knowing of your worth. On August 16, you come to realize that what you own, what you earn, and what you give your energy to are not just practical concerns.
Choose to build from a place of abundance, instead of lack. You’re not meant to scramble to feel valuable.
Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
Design: YourTango
You’re reintroducing yourself to the world, Taurus. But more importantly, you’re reclaiming yourself from all the ways you’ve tried to play small to be more palatable for others.
On August 16, the mirror is being wiped clean. Who were you before you were told who to be? It's time to return to yourself now.
Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
Design: YourTango
Gemini, this is a moment of emotional release of cinematic proportions. On Saturday, a sudden internal downpour may flood your internal landscape, but it's much needed.
You are on a journey through the emotional archives that have been quietly shaping how you navigate life. These feelings, long buried or brushed aside, are demanding your full attention.
Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
Design: YourTango
This chapter of your life, Cancer, is about carefully curating who you allow into your inner circle. The spaces you move in are shaping you on August 16.
Are they encouraging your growth or keeping you in a perpetual state of winter? What feels generative for your life, not just familiar?
You’re allowed to walk away from relationships that shrink your spirit.
Leo (July 23 - August 22)
Design: YourTango
Leo, does your outer life reflect your inner compass? You don’t have to abandon your goals, but refine them until they feel like an honest extension of who you are.
On August 16, release the need to impress and instead focus on what feels aligned with you. Your influence grows when your work comes from truth.
Virgo (August 23 - September 22)
Design: YourTango
A deeper longing is waking up inside you, Virgo, but it won’t be found by micromanaging life into safety.
You’re being drawn toward new landscapes, philosophies, and spiritual experiences that help you make sense of things in a more profound and soulful way.
Maybe it’s time to study something ancient or walk paths less travelled. You don’t need a clear destination to start the journey. Curiosity is enough.
Libra (September 23 - October 22)
Design: YourTango
Libra, the surface-level pleasantries and well-choreographed roles you participate in each day might feel emptier than usual.
On Saturday, explore the edges of your desires and be honest about what’s buried under politeness. Let go of what’s expected of you and work on being deeply seen instead of worrying about being liked.
Scorpio (October 23 - November 21)
Design: YourTango
Scorpio, you’re often the one who holds the emotional power. But on Saturday, you’re being invited into a different kind of connection.
Choose partnerships where you don’t have to test love or shield your softness. Let others meet you where you are — this is a season for true relationship alchemy.
Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21)
Design: YourTango
Sagittarius, there’s an earthy magic available to you now in the ordinary rhythms of life. You’re being asked to approach your daily habits not as chores, but as rituals that shape your becoming. Starting on August 16, how you nourish your body and organize your space is a spiritual act.
If you're feeling unsettled, you don’t need to travel more. Instead, you need some consistency. Focus on what sustains you, as this is a slow bloom that lasts.
Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)
Design: YourTango
You’ve been much more diligent about life, Capricorn, and your inner desires and goals want to explore being spontaneous. You are allowed to be defined by more than what you do each day. Romance, art, pleasure, and colors aren’t distractions; they are the spice of life.
Doorways are opening for you in life on August 16. Let yourself be surprised by what wants to come through you, especially when you’re not trying so hard.
Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)
Design: YourTango
The notion of "home” is unraveling and reweaving itself inside you, Aquarius. Maybe it’s not a place but a way of being.
On August 16, you’re being nudged to tend to your foundations. It’s normal to outgrow the stories you were born into. It’s OK to long for a sanctuary that reflects who you are now.
Whether you’re called to create more roots with friends or family or aim for greater freedom, know that you’re allowed to make yourself feel at home wherever you can be honest and secure.
Pisces (February 19 - March 20)
Design: YourTango
Pisces, you have stories within yourself that need to be shared and art that has been waiting to be received by an audience. The world would love to see your perspective through a more luminous lens today.
On August 16, trust your voice in the small truths you share. What small stories or observations feel insignificant to you, but might offer healing, reflection, or resonance to someone else?
