Daily Horoscope: August 17, 2023

August 16, 2023 Off By Annabel Gat

The moon in Virgo opposes taskmaster Saturn in Pisces at 4:32 AM. Saturn is the planet of responsibility, and while the moon in dutiful Virgo has no problem with hard work, taking care of business might feel more burdensome today. If you’ve been slacking, this could be a difficult astrological transit, but if you’re been on top of things, you can feel proud of your work, even if it requires a bit more energy. Themes like maturity and patience are highlighted.
