Stephanie Campos:

This is your daily horoscope for Monday, August 18th 2025. The action starts out around 5am when the moon in Gemini forms a sextile with the sun in Leo, when the inner self meets with the outer self, the inner self being the moon, the outer self being the sun. This can feel like just a period of flow or progress, like things are going right or things just aren't extra hectic or stressful around this time. So sure, that does not mean by any means that the world is perfect, but it just means that maybe you aren't dealing with extra stress or responsibilities at this time. This can also help you feel more grounded, balanced and in connection with your inner desires and transmuting and channeling that energy into your external world as well. Now, around 12 PM, the moon will enter cancer and at 1 30 PM the moon and cancer will form a square with Saturn and Aries, and then at 3 PM the moon and cancer will form a square with Neptune and Aries. So we know we have been dealing with this Saturn-Neptune conjunction and energy in the sign of Aries for quite some time.

Stephanie Campos:

When the moon comes along especially when the moon is in Cancer, which loves to be cozy and comforted and nurturing when it clashes with these other two planets it can kick up feelings of insecurity or uncertainty or doubt or self-criticism, or maybe there is some sort of responsibility that pops up that needs to be tended to around this time. Maybe you need to exert a boundary, perhaps you're feeling a little bit more porous. Maybe someone is testing your boundaries and boundaries also blur around. This time you might be feeling more tender and sensitive, and if that's the case, this is an invitation to listen to what your body is asking of you to drink more water. Slow down, be curious about what is arising for you, but don't take it as the absolute truth, because when Neptune is involved, we aren't seeing the picture perfectly clearly, so there is room for misunderstandings and miscommunication to take place around this time as well, and you might just feel a little bit more drained and zapped by the end of the day.

Stephanie Campos:

Aries, you might be a little sleepier than normal when the moon crashes in to Neptune. This could also be a day where you're feeling uncertain about your identity, how you show up in the world, or maybe even some of your personal goals. You could also run into conflict with your chosen family, or maybe someone close to you isn't as supportive of one of your dreams or ideals as you would have hoped. There's definitely this tendency and capability of gaslighting happening today. So just be wary, and if someone isn't understanding your truth and your experience, don't let that dissuade you from knowing your own lived experience. And it's also possible you're just tired, maybe you need some rest, or maybe you need to have a good cry, and sometimes this can also just simply put you in a more sentimental and reflective mood.

Stephanie Campos:

Taurus, when the moon crashes into Neptune, you might feel like there is some Mercury retrograde energy around you. You might be more susceptible to misunderstandings and miscommunication. This could also be a day where you learn news that doesn't fully feel like rooted in reality. Maybe you don't have the full picture picture in front of you and you don't have access to all the information you need before making a decision. This could also be a day where maybe you lax up on some of your boundaries and typically there's a boundary you would have wanted to set, but maybe you don't. For whatever reason, this is not a day to let your guilt consume you and to know that we all make mistakes from time to time and we all ease up on our boundaries from time to time, but maybe just use this as a moment of reflection to choose differently, moving forward. This could also be a day where words hurt, or maybe you are having a compassionate conversation with someone else and sharing a secret, or maybe someone else is confiding in you. It is also very possible you are busy today and it could just leave you feeling a little tired.

This is really a great time to avoid making important decisions if you can put it off, and it's also possible you learn some sort of news or have a conversation today that leaves you feeling depleted or maybe even a little sad. If you need to have a good cry, have a good cry. If you need some time alone to process your thoughts and feelings, do so. If you need some time alone to process your thoughts and feelings, do so.

This is also a moment to reckon with any feelings of jealousy, envy, guilt or shame, and how that pours over into your friendships or relationships.
