Weekly Love Horoscopes For August 3 - 9 — A Very Healing Week For Relationships
Design: YourTango | Photo: Vitalii Kuznetsov, Canva Weekly love horoscopes are here for August 3 - 9, 2026, a very healing week for every zodiac sign's relationship. Chiron, the asteroid that represents powerful lifelong psychological wounds that can affect relationships, turns retrograde on August 3. When Chiron retrogrades, it causes us to focus more on facing our fears. We are more self-reflective this week, and can work to overcome these wounds during this period.
Venus enters Libra on August 6 and remains here through September 10. Venus is considered very happy in this sign and is powerful here. Relationships feel happier starting this week, and people will be more inclined to take a laid-back approach as opposed to arguing or being critical. On August 9, Mercury enters Leo, enlivening conversation and our social lives. Expect to feel more confident and determined to get your true feelings across to others regardless of what they are. This is the time to be your own cheerleader and shine in your own light.
