A monthly astrology column for self-love, clarity, and spiritual alignment.
Hey girl! I’m Kayana, your new favourite homegirl. I’m here to guide you each month through spirituality, astrology, and most of all self-love. As a curvy girlie myself, it’s important to have community, and always allow all things that remind you that you are worthy, you are seen + you are enough. I’m excited to start off this month with August horoscopes that strives off confidence, visibility + intentional self-love, with you. August horoscopes might bring up a lot of emotions, confidence, and most importantly, opportunities to have a moment of bold reclamation of self. With Leo ruling the skies for most of the month — sis, it’s time to:
- take up space unapologetically
- be seen in your fullness — flaws, finesse, and all
- remember that confidence is a practice, not a performance
This month, the energy is really focused on coming home to yourself. What that means is loving yourself deeper, making choices from your heart space, and most importantly trusting your voice, desires, and timing. If you have been hiding or doubting your glow, magic, and beauty? This month is going to consistently put you in places to remind you — now is not the time for that. As we dive into each sign, I encourage you to follow your sun, moon, rising + venus placements. If you’re not sure what those are, but you do know your birth time you can find out the details here.
The affirmation to move through this month:
“I am the main character in my life — loved, led, and lit up by my own light”
