Some times nothing good happens. And some times all bad happens. A month that challenges your patience and forbearance. You are not able to save as you planned and you are not going to clear the loans. The amounts are diverted towards buying costly things. These too are purchased on EMIs and loans.
Simha:
Financial position s excellent in the entire month. You have far more enough coins to spend and save also. You will be able to purchase immovable properties till 21st of the month. You will easily purchase gold, costly gadgets and what all you want to enjoy life. However, it is not so easy to purchase immovable properties, there are some obstacles as guru is under check. Despite this, there is small element of crunch in finances for day to day needs due to kuja in 2nd. Your charisma goes up in the second half of the month but more than that you are more (than needed) concerned of what people say about you! If you are not careful, you may simply spend the money on useless causes. Shani is transiting in adverse 8th from your rasi.
Many people of this sign have frightful experiences like separation from family, long distance transfer, a turning point in life when you see only dead-end of the road. It is better to recite any sloka/mantra etc., for Lord Shiva. Due to shani in 8th and rahu in 7th, you are prone to cuts and wounds. Care is needed in this regard.
Kanya:
A month where you stocks go up. You will be on cloud nine as your services and talents are recognized. During the first half, you will get success in profession. A promotion and the like are possible. During the second half, there is restlessness due to work pressure and temporary duties out of town. You are ready to purchase shares, bonds and such paper currency but there is no time to ponder your choices and you are clueless.
Professional pressure is high, you need to take additional responsibilities of others. Ensure, in the name of knowledge transfer you will not disclose your success formula!
Marital life is not up to the mark. Loans and advances are not available as there is some deficiencies in paper work. You are haunted by dreadful dreams and unexplainable fears.
Tula:
A beautiful month. Entire month, you enjoy being at the centre stage in the office.
You are recognized and appreciated. No wonder if you bag awards. In the second half it is even more prominent. There is also financial benefits too.
You are very skilful in the office and through your diplomatic skills many records are set. As thanks giving, you wish to visit holly places but it is not possible, both guru and shukra yield to vedha.
Despite your best efforts, you are not able to acquire loans as the process is prolonged.
There are some misgivings with your children. There is always help from unexpected persons and situations in wealth matters.
Vrischika:
A bad month when everything goes wrong or nothing goes wrong but go many directions! Consider yourself lucky if nothing goes wrong - you can not expect more than this. To avoid discontent and distress just do the routine activities only and do not launch any new plans.
Dhanus:
The month is more or less associated with victory in court battles, obtaining arbitration awards and inheritance. You will actually receive proceeds from 22nd of the month. There is lot of amount to spend and invest from 22nd August.
Makara:
Iaw courage is the asset in your life, particularly these days. This only makes you to survive and surge forward. No amount of discouragement, disagreement and animosities will deter you. You are always combat fit and self reliant.
Kumbha:
Other than some knock-on effects usual on the bumpy road of the world (smooth roads are rare and they may skid also!), you are on good steed. There is good professional progress in the first half of the month. Loans are granted as per your terms. You will set new standards in the office during the second half.
Meena:
Good events with your children. Good flow of money. You are always at the market square figuring what next to purchase. There is possibility of wastage as you are hunting for anything fashionable than selecting anything useful! The amount involved is also considerable.
A good man never lets grief get the upper hand. The mountains are calm even in a tempest.

The Times of India reports a partial solar eclipse on 2nd August 2025. While astronomically valid, traditional Hindu astrology requires an celestial event to occur near one of the lunar nodes (rahu/ketu) to be considered an eclipse. Ketu, however, is too distant - positioned in simha at 25º58', while ravi is in kataka at 16º09'. The obscuration occurs due to kranti (declination) alignment; ravi at 17ºN51'48" and chandra at 17ºS59'21", resulting in a visual eclipse not based on longitude but on celestial latitude. Furthermore, the event does not coincide with amavasya (falling on 22-23 August). It lacks acceptance and that explains its omission in many Indian astrology platforms.



At the start of the month, ravi in kataka rasi rasi moves into own sign simha on 18th of August. Kuja transits in kanya rasi for the entire month. At the beginning of the month budha is in kataka rasi and moves into simha on the last day of the month.
Budha is retrograde till 11th August. Budha suffers combustion from 30th of August (till 2nd of October). Guru, shani, rahu and ketu continues their transit across mithuna, meena, kumbha and simha rasis respectively. Shani is retrograde entire month. Shukra moves into kataka from mithuna rasi on 22nd August.

But some purchases do not happen as budha is under check. Some friends may fall apart or go away from you. People in service sector may expect promotions. There is victory for sportsmen and those involved in court battles. Some people will get long distance transfer or change of job due to shani in 12th. There is always an under current of disappointment with your children. You will change your doctor and medicines for some flimsy reasons and that is the gamble.
Relationship with friends is good in first half but turns out savor in the second half. Relationship with close family members is bad in the entire month and is worse during second half. When the relationship is bad, you will discover that you can lead a good life even without them! This leads to freedom and confidence. There is always some provocation in the office. You should keep cool and calm. Relax well, sleep well and do not be sucked into the whirlpool of tensions one aft4r the other. The days are not good for students.

If you are not careful you have to pay penalty to government during first half. Now the bad things as advance warning! There are professional problems and you should not quit the job under any circumstances unless and until you have another employment order on hand. Shani in 10th is a dangerous predicament to deal with. Relationship with elders, your higher officers and parents is not good. Keep a watch on friends you move with. Do not go on asking all your friends "how I look like" least you become a laughingstock. Do not aspire to patch up disputes or purchase land properties. It is not going to work out - leave it at that.

The good friends who stood with you are no longer available. Financial position is good in second half but you should exercise discretion in spending. Do not rub shoulders with government persons. Do not brag about your capacities or what you did in your life very long time back. You do not have tact on what to talk and what not to! Do not exceed your limits in helping others with finances. You are always worried about money, even if there is no reasons to. More than anything, you are prone to cuts and wounds due to adverse rahu in 8th; there may be humiliations too due to adverse rahu and ravi. You should recite rahu kavacha during the month of August.





There is mild amount of professional frustration. Relationship with mother and close relatives has become horrible. Many people of this sign have to travel vast unknown lands, forsaken by their own people. There are deep concerns about children. You are prone to cuts and wounds and humiliations in public. Thanks to shukra benefic in 8th but under vedha, nothing untoward happens. Do not talk about disputed enigmatic topics like religion and politics. You will be misunderstood and misquoted as you are not able to drive your point. Recite maha mrutyujaya mantra during this month and be saved from rough weather.

However, during first half of the month, there are tensions, cuts, wounds and humiliations due to adverse ravi in the 8th. Such events can also be avoided with precautions and ploys. There is no danger to life, thanks to guru and shukra. In the second half your higher officers are very strict and unkind to you; you will be put to test by fire! This is going to help you in future development. There is lot of work related tensions, arguments and cold war in the office. You may be subjected to loathsome and tiresome travels. There is income from various sources during this months, thanks to budha. You are interested in occult sciences and philosophy. Marital life bad till 21st August and thereafter it is so-so only.
Domestic problems, misgiving with close relatives, obstacles in building/acquiring properties are due to shani in ardastama position. Happiness is hard to come by. You should recite any mantra/sloka etc., for Lord Shiva during this month.

You are prone to cuts and wounds in the entire month; caution is needed. You are forced to forgo some of properties or benefits during second half. You own people, the peers give wrong perception. Loans, help and support are unimaginable. There are no serious financial issues but even small amount of variance will irritate you. You are resigned and not willing to enjoy life; even a beautiful sunshine does not strike a cord of joy in you. I should say, raw courage is the asset these days. This only makes you to survive and surge forward.

Spouse is arrogant in the entire month. At times, you may feel that marital life has fall to pieces. Have patience and wade through troubled waters. In the second half, you will truly enjoy the high handed nature of your wife as she has clear goals and plans. You are prone to cuts and wounds involving garden tools, heavy wood or mechanical contraptions. You should be careful in sports area as kuja is adverse in the 8th. There is good progress of children. Many people of kumbha rasi are blessed with children. Many see their children settle in life with good jobs or marriage. You will be able to make assets for them. Yes, you are ready to invite changes into your life like a new hobby and personal habit restructuring. There may be few health problems from 22nd of the month. If you are putting your forms for a loan you need to do it before 22nd. Finance is no problem for long time investments. But you are very prudent in your spending pattern, shani in 2nd with benefic shukra in 5th gives financially stability. You need to exercise restraint and should not break into verbal tussle.

Loans are available as per your needs and terms. You may be afraid of adverse remakes by inspecting authority. But to your surprise the person you disliked most, gives a good credit! Right after a social frolic, you will prefer to be in solitude - enjoying silence and serene thoughts due to combined influence of shukra and shani. There is always some rift with close family members. There some element of fear in the air due to adverse rahu in 12th.
