This month’s astrology begins with an Aquarius full moon on August 9, directing attention toward your current belief systems, viewpoints, and higher educational studies. During this lunation, you’ll seek conversations and insights that are outside your typical daily realm, while still supporting your desire for consistency. Today’s full moon may feel somewhat isolating, since you’ll be less interested in sharing your thoughts and ideas and more concerned with exploring them independently. Regardless, it’s a fortunate time for venturing out into the world.
By August 11, Mercury, your chart ruler, finally stations direct in the bold sign of Leo, turning up the volume on your thoughts, ideas, and interests. Advocating for topics you’re passionate about has been challenging in recent weeks, but now, you’ll be making it a priority to speak your mind in a very confident and concise way. Having an outlet for your current musings is essential now, making this a good time to channel your perspectives into a hobby or creative activity.
Venus and Jupiter meet up in cozy Cancer by August 12, bringing abundance and goodness to your money, resources, and possessions. Today, you’ll be leaning into the comforts that your belongings offer you. This is a transit indicative of a raise, or some kind of financial opportunity that allows for more support and comfort in your world. Just be careful not to overindulge when acting upon emotion today – you may have more of a tendency to impulsively buy things with sentimental value.
Virgo season begins on August 22, directing your attention to your home and family. As this season unfolds, you’ll be working to create a more efficient life behind closed doors. Home improvement projects or organizing family-related matters may be your priority now, especially during the Virgo new moon on August 23. Today, you’ll be intentional about solving any household-related issues that are demanding your attention or setting some productive goals for your living environment.
