Keep it under wraps. Use your discretion, since your Capricorn horoscope for August 2025 says Leo season is getting antsy in your eighth house of privacy, taboo, and psychological complexity.

Someone might probe about your past when Neptune and Saturn retrograde confront Venus on August 1. Questions about your inner world, home, and family might make you nervous. More attention will continue to find you, as Mars enters Libra days later. Many people will begin wanting to know more about you, which may throw off your groove. Try to redirect this attention back to your career path, work life, and professional accomplishments. If that doesn’t work, you may want to detach from these conversations by the full moon in Aquarius on August 9.

What do you stand for? Your values will be spotlighted, as Pluto retrograde unearths Mars a day later. For better or for worse, your desires, personal effects, and more will become public knowledge. At least you can regain control of the narrative with Mercury retrograde ending on August 11. But this may lead to unprecedented changes at work and home. Some of your commitments and relationships will demand more from you, as Venus conjoins Jupiter on August 12. Don’t hesitate to have an honest yet discreet conversation about what you’re planning a few days later.

Whatever you said last week will come back around on August 18. Mars meets Mercury for the second time, causing you to own your opinions, thoughts, and feelings. Everything you disclosed could be publicly shared, so be prepared. Whatever comes to light will give you perspective on your journey as you head into Virgo season on August 22. You may feel called to be more selective about your goals and plans during the new moon in Virgo the following day.

As August comes to an end, you may need to make some significant lifestyle changes to go after your goals and dreams. You may not feel as worried, suspicious, or secretive as you change your life. However, you should still be selective about who you let into your inner world once Venus is in Leo on August 25. Keep a tight lid on things happening behind closed doors. Be mindful of unexpected distractions, since Uranus could sway Venus and Saturn retrograde.

Hopefully, you will feel more secure in your discernment. One more surprise may find you before this month ends, since Uranus will get a rise out of Neptune retrograde on August 28. Be strategic about how you want to handle this, since it might follow you into September. Read your full 2025 horoscope.
