You'll get a more accurate horoscope if you read your Rising sign, and your Moon sign, as well as your Sun sign. Here's how:

Your Rising sign represents your outer mask, the self you show to others. It represents how you appear to others, how others perceive you, in your true interaction with the world.

It represents how you relate to others, how you have nurturing relationships with others, your intuition, your spiritual self, your sense of security, and your habits. The Moon represents your feminine, nurturing side (we all have one).
The Moon also indicates the type of partner you will attract, since it represents your emotional self.

Aires  aires (March 20 - April 18)  Fire.  Your ruling planet is Mars.    Top

You are stepping out with verve and style this month, Aries, but with serious purpose also, allowing it to matter what you do and don't accomplish. Your mission would seem to be one of service to others and ultimately to yourself as well, as you attempt to fulfill your highest purpose for this lifetime. This has everything to do with transformation of your impulse to show up in the world no longer from a motive of any form of self-aggrandizement, but simply from recognizing what the universe requires of you and doing the next right thing from moment to moment.

As the month begins, creative activities and work as play dominate your activities. You are seeking to make important adjustments to the way that you show up in the world, consistent with your own high ideals and with matter-of-fact considerations also. You are very aware of the practicalities of life at this time. There is a serious purpose underlying your playful investigations of cosmic truth these days; you have been transforming at the core of your psyche and that process continues unabated into the present monthly cycle.

The Full Moon that comes along on Wednesday, August 9th, is a culmination of your search for meaning and represents a moment of truth. You can take the high road of positive manifestation in your life and move to another level of societal involvement or else relapse into a form of despair and nay saying yourself that leaves you right back where you started, a little older and wiser perhaps.

Your sense of optimism and hope for a better future for yourself and society surrounding you is very strong at this time, but it takes hard work to make it pay off. The danger is also that the possibilities that beckon seem more easily realized than may prove to be the case in actuality.

The powerful Virgo New Moon of Wednesday, August 23rd, that comes after two weeks of wrestling with these issues may provide a key that unlocks the door to more complete service orientation and a seriously vibrant future.

Taurus  taurus (April 19 - May 19)  Earth.  Your ruling planet is Venus.    
Top

You are coming to some startling conclusions regarding the arc of development that your life course must follow, Taurus, as your period of transformation of your values and your cherished beliefs continues into this monthly cycle. Digging down into your core substance to try to find the gold ring of solid security opens you up to the surrounding universe in a big way. Communicating these feelings to others around you is difficult but necessary as you strive for a better perspective on your experience. The last week of August may represent some kind of climax for you. You are re-inventing yourself in the process that you are currently engaged in, and who knows what form you will take as you emerge out the other side of the tunnel.

As the month begins, electric communication with peers and loved ones brings startling epiphanies and important shifts in your point of view. A magical space opens up for you at various times throughout the month and this is one of them. You will be heading into some tough sledding later on in this monthly cycle, but for now everything is for the most part rosy. Partnership interaction may provide some setbacks that wind up transformative for your public presence and your private ruminations also. You are forging a new way of being in the world that takes heart and mind together as an integrated piece, requiring adjustments.

The Full Moon of Wednesday, August 9th, may come as something of a shock to your system, as you feel pulled in a number of directions all at once. You'll want to share your feelings with significant partners in your life, and the more that you do so at this time, the better.

The Last Quarter Moon of the following Tuesday sets your thought wheels in motion along a different track, as you are forced to take a closer look at what you've been creating lately, especially at the feeling level, as new awareness seeps in.

These times of tension are a prelude to the New Moon another week later, taking place on August 23rd, when a very different and potentially more playful energy starts to emerge. You are also quietly serious at this time regarding depth researches into what you have inside yourself that no one ever sees, perhaps not even yourself, and coming to a better understanding of your most basic motivations.

You have a deep need for sharing at an intimate level that you are getting in closer touch with over the next few days, leading up to the very end of the month, when you are geared up for direct action regarding your situation.

Gemini
  gemini (May 20 - June 20)  Air.  Your ruling planet is Mercury.    
Top

You are coming into a new way of thinking about your situation these days, Gemini. Your work in the world is a tremendous source of inspiration for you right now, as you further explore the deeper meaning of your life and the direction that it has recently been taking. You are coming out of a period of re-examining your values and taking inventory of the resources necessary to accomplish expanded and extensive plans for yourself moving forward, and as you do you may feel a sense of wonder and renewed possibility. These are exciting times to be living through, the more so if you allow yourself to relax and just enjoy the ride, without judgment or any form of preconception.

As the month begins, communication with your surrounding circle is the name of your game. You are also likely to be heading off in some new directions work-wise, although you may continue to be in a somewhat shaky state as far as permanent decision-making is concerned, since your ruler Mercury is still emerging from its retrograde shadow for the first ten days of the month. You are setting your sights on progress, nonetheless, and seeking to find direction in terms of your highest intention for yourself at this time, based on an optimistic assessment of your chances.

At the time of the Full Moon, which takes place in the middle of the following week, on Wednesday, August 9th, you are filled with both the horizontal spread of activity implied by supercharged yet otherwise ordinary thinking and taking on a more ethereal big-picture viewpoint that leaves the earth far behind. You are wildly impractical at this time, and yet very grounded in another way also, seeking to balance the extremes of your thought process into a more coherent whole, and with patchy success.

The resulting integration, when you are able to achieve it, can also have its positive effect on the way that you relate to significant partners in your life. You are combining a service orientation toward others with a healthy sense of your own process these days and arriving at some startling conclusions.

The New Moon that comes along toward the end of the month, on Wednesday, August 23rd, kicks off a change in the energy. You are more invested at this time in home and family concerns, and in getting closer to your own spiritual center. There is the potential in the air for powerful and transforming change all during this climactic monthly cycle, but it is up to you how to handle it. Whatever piece of the action you are able to show up for, the universe will respond in kind.

Cancer  cancer (June 21 - July 21)  Water.  Your ruling planet is the Moon.    
Top

This month represents yet another new beginning for you, Cancer. You may find yourself idealizing relationship with significant partners in your life as a goal and perhaps also as a means to your own self-discovery. You are ultimately concerned at this time with issues of self and other, of where you stop and the other begins, and how to set appropriate boundaries without walling yourself off altogether. High ideals and blissful illusion have their drawbacks but they have their advantages also. An overly cynical assessment may have just as much danger of running aground on the reefs of circumstance as an overly optimistic one.

As the month begins, you are finding your way forward into wholeness, only just beginning to emerge from a self-reflective period of time that took up most of July and lasts through the first ten days of the present monthly period. There may be some degree of growing pains for you to contend with, as your perspective stretches in response. Your resources are an important part of the story for you right now.

Especially at the time of the Full Moon taking place on Wednesday, August 9th, there is also the possibility that you are laboring under a form of illusion regarding your own resources versus those derived from others. You need to be very clear about tending your own garden first and foremost at this time. You are building for the future right now although things might be more difficult for you short-term than you would really like.

With the Last Quarter Moon taking place on Tuesday, August 15th, you may experience some form of tension in your activities, as you reach a crisis point in connecting up the dots for yourself and your material affairs to make a more meaningful whole. This is an important time for you, when issues of sickness and health could be helpful in pointing the way to greater internal harmony. It always pays to follow your heart and to tune in to your internal guidance, and now more than ever.

The New Moon a week later on the 23rd takes you to a new level of energy and integration that could manifest as career change. You are fundamentally in a good place right now, humming along, better when you keep alert to the subtle vibrations surrounding you these days and move in accordance with them.

Leo  leo (July 22 - August 21)  Fire.  Your ruling planet is the Sun.    
Top

Adventures in intimacy are coming your way, Leo. You might feel a sense of isolation in your journey as you explore a new contract with yourself and your world and make your birthday wishes more of a concrete reality, but at the same time you are very aware of relationship considerations. You might catch yourself idealizing helpful partners in your life, or becoming disappointed that the interaction doesn't always live up to what you considered to be its high promise.

Especially around the time of the August 9th Full Moon, you may feel the pain of being brought down to the real in these and other matters. Although it's true what they say, that "nothing gold can stay," the remainder of a cosmically powerful connection can still count for quite a lot.

As the month begins, you are likely digging deep down within yourself for some important answers to questions that might be troubling to you below the surface layers of your consciousness. You are solidifying at the level of personality, getting more and more entrenched with recent advances in how you handle yourself in the real world, but somehow you remain mystical at the core of your very being, and this vague and mysterious purpose is arising for you right now. The time is right for you to explore your deep inside, even more so than in recent weeks.

The paradox of the situation may disturb your logical mind, or what is left of it, that left-brain part of yourself that insists on solutions, but it might pay right now not to get very caught up in that form of illusion. The nature of the soul is paradox, and you are dealing, at least in part, with soul-level concerns at this time.

Especially at the time of the Full Moon in your opposite sign taking place on August 9th, the mystical side of the equation may be symbolized by significant partners in your life. Relationship can be an exceptionally fine mirror for you these days if you can pierce through the illusion, showing you something that was there inside you all along when you look at it right.

Sudden changes of attitude could lead you off in very new directions over the next two weeks, along the way to the Virgo New Moon that takes place on Wednesday, August 23rd. This New Moon represents a departure for you in terms of a shift in the energy, another turn of the road for your process of discovery, when the resources you have at your disposal come strongly into play. You have been saving up in your cosmic bank account for your various journeys, the mundane as well as the spiritual ones, and you must call upon these now to make your move.

Virgo  virgo (August 22 - September 21)  Earth.  Your ruling planet is Mercury.   
Top

You are in the world these days all right, Virgo, but just barely. You are spending most of this month in a period of contemplation, preparing for your next phase. Since your ruler Mercury has just changed directions and is once more flying straight, you are possibly still reeling from recent revelations and changes to your current plans and goals. You are in fact seeking a greater sense of cosmic purpose for your life at this time. In the last week of the month you might just find it.

As the month begins, you find yourself in a strange mix of energies, more out of this world than participating in it, and yet at the same time with a powerful urge to connect to others. This might lead to some rather spacey communications or at least feeling two sides to your interactions in the physical plane.

Your ruler Mercury is only now recovering lost ground from the recent retrograde, meaning that decisions regarding your future are still just a bit shaky. Although you probably have big plans in mind, it might be well to wait another week or ten days before actualizing them.

At the time of the Full Moon of August 9th, Mercury is almost out of its retrograde shadow and plans can begin to firm up. This is also a very special time for you, when you are even more closely connected to other dimensions of experience than the merely mundane here and now reality. You may in fact be experiencing the extreme distance between these viewpoints quite strongly. You have a feeling of compassionate oneness with all creation, and the desire to be of service somehow, and the urge for action.

Yet everything is suspended and blurred, like looking at the world through a glass darkly. Things will likely become clearer later in the month. Interactions with significant partners may also provide inspiration at this time. You and everyone else are in an entirely transformational place right now, and the energy is there for making big changes in your life if you open to it.

With the New Moon at the very beginning of your sign that comes along two weeks later, taking place on Wednesday, August 23rd, a surging charge may revitalize you and propel you into a new situation.

Libra  libra (September 22 - October 22)  Air.  Your ruling planet is Venus.    
Top

You are riding the waves of change, Libra, and getting quite serious regarding your prospects, visioning new possibilities. There is also a huge mystical component to your wild imaginings at this time. You cannot fail to think large, to expand existing resources and to feel a compassionate sense of unity with your fellow (wo)man. Your infectious optimism may be catching. Since early August represents the best chance you'll have all year to make up an entirely new future for yourself, choose wisely. Be sure of what you want, and then go ahead.

As the month begins, you are in a very optimistic and expansive space, reacting to sudden changes of direction in a positive way. Career is really up for you right now, and the day-to-day experiences of life contain wonderful hidden messages for you. You are riding the wave from last month's New Moon in your sector of group affiliation and societal connection, and your expansive attitude could easily translate into powerful visioning for more inclusive prospects for yourself and your loved ones. There is a serious side to your plans for the future at this time as well, and a sense of numinous possibility.

The Full Moon of Wednesday, August 9th represents the polarity of these disparate fundamental building blocks of life and you may feel pulled to one side or the other, either to the excessive play of fantasy or to overly practical considerations. The secret lies somewhere in between. You are changing in your entire approach to your world at this time, not least through the act of balancing these ordinary devils and angels of daily existence.

The Last Quarter Moon that comes along a week later, on Tuesday, August 15th, brings a moment of tension to your process of growth and reinforces the desire to make needed changes in your life. Your communication at this time is likely to strike sparks of creativity in others around you.

The New Moon a week later, on Wednesday, August 23rd, takes place in your sector of dream imagination, leading you to another form of new beginning. You are to an unusual degree tuned in to other-dimensional energies beyond the hustle and bustle of here and now so-called reality and yet also connected to serious purpose regarding making actual progress in the everyday world, all at the very same time. Nothing to do except to embrace the mystery.

Scorpio  scorpio (Oct 23 - Nov 21)  Water.  Your ruling planets Mars, Pluto.   
Top

You are reaching for a hard peak of success these days, Scorpio, but your accomplishment is not without its soft fuzzy underbelly. In spite of a major achievement orientation, you are more open than ever to the magical possibilities of your situation. You are also very community-minded right now, transforming in the ways that you connect to friends and other groups as you go for the gusto in your social interactions generally. You might almost be accused of being full of yourself if it weren't for your compassionate outreach to the social matrix surrounding you.

As the month begins, you are full of energy and verve, optimistically assessing your chances and going for the big time in your professional life. You are also investigating your innermost psyche in a form of dreamtime that takes you away from the here and now, but largely to good effect. When you can integrate heart and mind, private and public persona, deep internal process and outer achievement, then you've really got something.

The Full Moon energy that comes along the following mid-week, on Wednesday, August 9th, supports both poles of your conundrum. You may be tempted to give up on your ideals for inner connection, becoming caught up in the razzle-dazzle, or else find a deeper way to connect to surface glitter and make real gold out of it.

The Last Quarter Moon of the 15th signals a testing time, a time of true transformation if you can catch the wave, and a nexus where significant partners in your life might either help or hinder your metamorphosis depending on how you react to their contribution. Sudden moves on your part are likely, leading to specific action in career or partnership matters and for new potentials to open up for you.

The New Moon a week later, on Wednesday, August 23rd, represents a fresh start on seeing more clearly where you are headed in all areas. This is a great time to vision new possibilities for yourself. That it's all up to you is just one of the lessons of this climactic period of time. That it's all up to Spirit working itself out in your life might be another.

Sagittarius  sagittarius (Nov 22 - Dec 20)  Fire.  Your ruling planet is Jupiter.   
Top

Mystical madness may be your strongest suit these days, Sagittarius, in spite of all your best efforts to tread the straight and narrow. In the course of this monthly cycle you find yourself caught between opposing forces of deep internal reflection and a superbly realistic approach. There will be surprises and cosmic epiphanies to attend to as you strive at the same time to find the proper outer world manifestation to match newfound inner awareness. Inner and outer are but two sides of the very same coin, and the coin is in spin. Will it come up heads versus tails or a touch of both?

As the month begins you are intent on coming to a new form of intimacy with self and other, based on deep thoughts and internal reflections that take you far behind and beyond your conscious mind. Your basic beliefs are solidifying in a particular direction and the question is, are you ready to embrace profound change in your life yet again? You are called to move beyond previous limitations in another phase of deepening commitment to your most essential self and make a vertical connection to your highest intention past the multiple distractions offered by modern society.

At the time of the Full Moon taking place on Wednesday, August 9th, you are presented with choices. There is the illusory glitter of surface distraction to deal with, as always, and perhaps the fear of taking on the real success story of this period of time, in the profound transformation that you can make in your life right now. In any case, this is about finding your own sense of what is good for you and communicating it to others around you.

The Last Quarter Moon of August 15th represents another turning point, a time when the rubber meets the road in terms of your actual day-to-day commitment to active change. Sudden new career directions may occur to you now, or at least the desire to leap tall buildings and break through to new ground.

The Virgo New Moon that comes along a week later also represents a fresh start in this area, one in which a sense of integration is more possible between impulse and idealism, and where mystical messages from other voices and your own deep intuition play an important part. You remain in the midst of a thoroughgoing metamorphosis that is taking place within your psyche, which is really about piercing the illusory satisfaction of surface living in order to dive into meaning, but it doesn't have to be that dramatic.

You will make the choice that you are ready for, and if you don't take the total plunge at this time, the chance will come again to you later in a different form.

Capricorn  capricorn (Dec 21 - Jan 19)  Earth.  Your ruling planet is Saturn.   
Top

Your concept of your future is changing rapidly, Capricorn. Compassionate connection with intimate partners is a deep mystery, and one that reflects on your own situation. Living for others rather than for yourself will get you only so far but it is perhaps difficult to escape that pattern. New information that comes to light has you thinking things through in surprising ways and then fitfully describing your new life direction to others, as the mood occurs. The closer you get to merging with another the more you realize that the most important connection that you have is with your own inner process.

As the month begins, you are fully involved with electric communication and optimistic partnership activity. It's an exciting time to be alive. You are continuing the transformation of your values and your ideas that began earlier this year, and the more that you allow yourself to give in to potential change and go with the flow of circumstances the better you'll like the conclusion.

The Full Moon of August 9th is a particularly potent time for you. Financial and other type of resource are subject to some degree of illusion and even deceptive situations might arise, at this time especially, although this has perhaps been something of a constant theme lately. Financial resources are such an illusion to begin with, although we must also take them as real for the sake of the daily round of actions that determine our physical lives; they don't mean much in the bigger picture, except as counters in the game. And the game is really about our spiritual selves and the connections that we make with each other, helpful or hurtful as we find or stray from our ultimate intention for ourselves.

As the remainder of the month unfolds, there may be some stuck places that you will get to, potential painful places where issues of security, boundaries and finding the dynamic of intimacy that works for both partner and self. If you gracefully try for the integration of heart and mind, hand and soul center, you'll do all right in the final result.

You may experience some element of tension and difficulty seeing your way clear to this place of balance, especially at the time of the Last Quarter Moon of Tuesday the 15th and the week following, when mental adjustments might need to be made. The New Moon of Wednesday, August 23rd, represents another shift, a further perspective, and another turn around the spiral path of your evolving destiny.

Aquarius  aquarius (Jan 20 - Feb 18)  Air.  Your ruling planets Uranus, Saturn.   
Top

You are sailing through mighty mystical waters lately, Aquarius. Partnership concerns are paramount for you at this time but that doesn't mean that you are intended to neglect your own development. You are on a powerful roll with your outer presentation, based in part on a better grasp of your own motivation, although the ins and outs of this support may be more than a little confusing. What seems almost like no overt progress is actually a secret river of change that bubbles up from time to time into surface layers of your psyche like an underground spring rising. Just when you least expect it you have once again found your center.

As the month begins, you are seeking practical results, although in another way your feet are barely reaching the ground at this time. You are climbing for a peak of success in career matters and very invested in relationship with significant others in you life also, while at the same time attempting to sort out the details of exactly what makes you tick. You are tempted on the one hand toward being over-committed to sharing, or else pushing everyone away to remain firmly in your own space.

When you are attempting to get a better handle on your own security needs, others only seem to slow you down or even hold you back. Adjustment is required. And simultaneously you are riding the wave of an intensely optimistic call to action in all areas of your life, but most especially in the public statement that you embody as you show up in the world.

The Full Moon in your sign that comes along on Wednesday, August 9th, may represent some kind of a culmination of these ruminations and cross-purposes. At that time, your relationship dynamic is even more emphasized by the very nature of the Full Moon energy.

At the time of the Last Quarter Moon, taking place about a week later, on Tuesday, August 15th, you are likely to experience some degree of tension in the process of growth that you are currently engaged in, as home and family concerns predominate along with changes to your group affiliations and how you fit yourself into society around you.

The New Moon of the following week, taking place on Wednesday, August 23rd, represents a fresh start in some of these areas and a new take on intimate connection with important partners. You are coming from a more integrated, although perhaps also more confusing, place, learning to balance self versus other, reality versus high idealism, and public versus private life. Like a tightrope walker you will do fine as long as you refuse to look down.

Pisces  pisces (Feb 19 - Mar 19)  Water. Your ruling planets Neptune, Jupiter.   
Top

You are other-directed these days, Pisces. Especially in the last week of the month you are likely to find yourself very busy exploring new realms of partnership interaction. You are also getting serious about finding your dharma, your true vocation, as you emerge from the previous month, riding the waves of recent changes in attitude toward who you are, and how and to what end you show up in the world. An other-orientation makes sense for you right now, almost as a form of spiritual practice, as you strive to concretely enable a path of service to others based on the compassionate embrace of all of nature, and, don't forget, of yourself along with it.

As the month begins, you are feeling your way into novel perspectives and a greater sense of integration between inner and outer. You are quite active in the world at this time, and yet also completely in touch with a hidden element of your personality that corresponds to other dimensions of reality beyond what you can see and touch with your five senses alone. This month represents a further opportunity for growth, as you get more serious regarding your commitment to a form of true service to humanity at large.

At the time of the August 9th Full Moon in your sector of dream imagination you are pulled even more strongly to the inside. Active partners in your life can help you bridge the gap between inner and outer, but it is well to remember that you are the final architect of your worldview, and that you establish your own reality with each attitude adjustment that you make.

The New Moon that comes along two weeks later, on Wednesday, August 23rd, in your opposing sign, your partnership sector, brings new energy to this area of your life. Existing relationships will be enhanced and new ones could be started at this time.

You are in the midst of profound personal transformation during this entire monthly cycle, involving not only your relationship to significant partners but your sense of self and your way of being in the world stage, how you perform your public service.

This is a time when you are either uplifted and the real and mundane events of your life become almost magical, or else a time when you feel that your creative imagination is stifled by too much exposure to the limitations of the concrete world. If this seems paradoxical, well it is, and you might just have to accept that there are limitations to the world of logic. The fundamental disconnect between worlds is severe, and yet can yield to an act of the imagination, although not always gracefully.

Overview of the Planets this month:
                 
    Top

The Astrology of August features Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. Saturn and Neptune, opposite each other throughout August, ask us to consider the mystical implications of the everyday physical world all around us from which we draw sustenance, and conversely to accept it that our high ideals may suffer a dose of realistic disappointment from time to time, without allowing that simple, understandable and commonplace occurrence to bring us down. "Tomorrow I begin again" could be our attitude. The constant interpenetration of the real and the supernaturally unreal form an important polarity of life here below that keeps the heart of it beating. We constantly go back and forth between dwelling in the multiplicity and dwelling in the One, but it is all wonder. As the poet says, from wonder into wonder, existence opens.

Saturn and Neptune, opposed in the skies right now, are triggered most dramatically at the time of the Leo–Aquarius Full Moon on August 9th. This Full Moon takes place at 16+ degrees of the sign, within two degrees of each opposing planet, themselves within four degrees of each other across the Zodiac. Saturn and Neptune continue to get closer to an exact opposition as the month unwinds. Uranus is also implicated in this month's grand scheme, since Jupiter trines it from Scorpio, along with Venus at the very beginning of the month, while at the Full Moon, Mars opposes Uranus and the Sun aspects it along with Saturn. Interestingly, the Virgo New Moon in the last week of the month exactly opposes the Uranus / Neptune midpoint. August is therefore a most magical month.

With trickster Uranus in the mix of this month's energies, anything can happen. We should be prepared for the unexpected, and the moment of epiphany that can change our lives suddenly and completely.

Mercury is also just now pulling out of its retrograde shadow, recovering lost ground from the previous three weeks of the retrograde period, and re-entering Leo on the 10th. Hopefully we can take what we have gathered during this reflective period of time, now ending, and discover the roots of our salvation in the new understanding that it brings us.

Current Configurations

Riding the energy of the Leo New Moon from the end of last month, we are relatively ungrounded at the beginning of the month, with only Mars in Virgo holding the Earth energy. We are precise but not fully connected with ourselves in some ways at this time, relying on the shaky power of logical thinking to hold ourselves together.

The First Quarter Moon of Wednesday, August 2nd is a powerful one, with a Grand Trine in Water, including Uranus, and with only Mars in Earth, and the Moon in conjunction with expansive Jupiter in Scorpio. Jupiter trines Uranus all month long, amping up his sparky energy, and squaring Saturn and Neptune. We are thrust into a swirl of radical energy promoting either confusion or at least the possibility of change in our lives.

The Full Moon of Wednesday, August 9th, is powerful as well, with the Sun and Moon in Leo and Aquarius aligning themselves with the forming Saturn – Neptune opposition, by now only a few degrees apart across the sky. Saturn and Neptune represent quite opposite principles, of the status quo and the limitations of the here and now versus the more distant drumbeat and numinous super-reality of other dimensions intruding upon our physical ones, and calling us forth to compassion and feelings of oneness with all creatures on the planet. At the same time, Mars is also opposite Uranus, representing a call to action and the likelihood of surprising and even startling events to take place.

The Last Quarter Moon of Tuesday, August 15th, features an isolated Moon opposed to the remainder of the planets and carrying most of the Earth energy in its watery grasp. Mars is still opposite Uranus. The Sun and Moon now aspect transformative Pluto. The energy shift and crisis of action represented by the building square between Sun and Moon both frustrate and strengthen our cause. We are in a place of attempting to reconcile the spiritual impulse toward the divine within us and out world limitation. Progress can be made, although not without effort on our part.

The Virgo New Moon of Wednesday, August 23rd, represents a fresh start in the very first degree of the sign. The Virgo energy is not very grounded, but more so than the Fire element that preceded it. We are being asked to find a place within the storm of circumstance that we are comfortable with as our platform on which to stand, from which we can attempt to move the mountains of our destiny a little closer to their culmination.
