Love is in the air — or at least we hope so. Fall is rolling in soon, and a new season calls for new love prospects! If you weren't successful this summer, maybe something else is written in the stars for you this month. Let's find out what your zodiac says about your August love life!

Aries
You've been daydreaming lately, but after the first week of this month, you'll be ready to let go and do what's right for you, whether it's pursuing something or letting it go. If you're already in a relationship, then expect some relationship growth by the end of the month because Jupiter and Mars are *totally* rooting for you.

Taurus
You're going to see a *ton* of relationship opportunities come your way during this month (yay!), so definitely be on the lookout. If you're in a relationship at the moment, you might face some challenges this month, but think of it as an opportunity to make your bond stronger.

Gemini
All you Geminis out there can expect to encounter a couple opportunities for love this month. Your communication and small talk game will be *on point,* so it will be helpful to connect with people and open up some conversations before August ends. This is also great news for our ladies in relationships, since communication is *everything* when building stronger connections.

Cancer
You're going to feel extra confident and pumped up this month. Venus is in Cancer in August, so you can use this boost to approach that cutie you've been wanting to talk to. Venus also means enhanced improvement in ongoing relationships, so Cancers can overall expect to be stress-free this month when it comes to crushes.

Leo
August might be a rough patch for the Leos out there, but that's not a bad thing at all. As a Leo, you're naturally level headed and can take on anything that comes your way, so you can *totally* face whatever this month throws at you. And even if you don't get what you were hoping for, that just means you have more time to focus on you. Self-care spa night anyone?

Virgo 
Virgos could be taking a trip down memory lane this month. The Sun and Mercury will be in a nostalgic part of your astrological chart, so you might rekindle an old crush or get the chance to talk to an old friend. You can also expect to find yourself in a great environment for relationship building, so August is looking pretty good for the Virgos out there.

Libra
Any Libras will find August to be easy-going. When it comes to relationships, Mars has been on your side for the past month, and it's here to stay for the rest of the year. This means things will be pretty smooth-sailing, and you'll only face challenges when Mars clashes with other planets, which *thankfully* isn't happening in August. 

Scorpio
Scorpios will find clarity this month and be able to set their priorities straight. You'll find out what you want in a relationship or if you even want one at all right now. Our ladies currently in relationships will stumble upon a couple challenges, which is a chance to improve upon your relationship. Single Scorpios can expect some romantic opportunities to come their way, especially towards the end of the month.

Sagittarius
We know you Sagittarii have had a rough time this past month, but things are looking up for you in August. Your relationship prospects will only get better as the month goes on, and you'll meet new people you might be compatible with. August will definitely be a highlight in your year whether you're already in a relationship or not. 

Capricorn
You Capricorns probably spent the past month getting over past relationship issues and figuring out what you want. Now you're ready to do what you need to do, and August is *the* month for you. Venus, the planet of love, will be in your relationship sector for most of the month, so take advantage of the last three weeks of August.

Aquarius
If you're an Aquarius, August will be an unremarkable month for you, but that doesn't mean that good things won't happen. The Sun and Mercury will be in your relationship sector for the first three weeks of the month. This means communication in any ongoing relationships will be great, and all Aquarians will be more relaxed when it comes to love. 

Pisces
You likely had an eventful month in July, and you'll find that August is a bit more toned down. If you're in a relationship, this month will be warm and easy-going. If you're not in a relationship at the moment, August is the month to try new things and make an effort to meet new people. It will *def* pay off.
