Venus enters Virgo, astrologers forecast mixed outcomes for several zodiac signs

According to Indian astrology, Venus (Shukra) will move from the sign of Leo into Virgo on 1 August 2026 at 09:33 IST and will remain there until 2 September 2026. Astrologers say the transit is expected to bring financial gains, increased prosperity and harmonious relationships for Scorpio, Gemini, Sagittarius, Taurus and Capricorn, with opportunities for investments, business deals and personal happiness.

Conversely, the same transit is described as challenging for Cancer, Libra and Sagittarius, with possible delays in career advancement, heightened work stress, reduced business earnings and family tensions. Practitioners advise cautious decision‑making, avoidance of high‑risk investments and attention to mental well‑being during this period.
