"August is highlighted by a Blue Moon, along with Mercury turning direct and later entering its own sign of Virgo. August begins and ends with two full moons, which are important points of reassessment that indicate how far we have come and where we still need to go. Creative and emotional energies are very strong this month. We are still under the July New Moon in Cancer, which brings issues connected with security, home and family.
The first Full Moon occurs on August 1 at 10 Aquarius. This lunation is aligned with Mercury in Leo, which provides more focus on analysis and communication. The Leo/Aquarius polarity emphasizes the functions of creativity, courage, independence and progressive change. It also involves balancing the needs of the self with the good of the whole community. The favorable aspects to Uranus, Jupiter, Ceres and Mars give us more strength to integrate personal changes, follow inner guidance and move forward at the right time. The Sabian symbol keynotes for this degree: “The need to rely upon inner inspiration and guidance at the start of new developments” and “The power of tradition as it shelters the beginnings of individual self-expression” indicate that we can now gain more trust in our intuition and spiritual support.
On August 7 Mercury turns direct at 1 Leo 36. We still have a few weeks left (before Mercury changes signs) to focus on taking a more heart-centered approach in our communications. With the direct station, we can confidently move forward with plans and goals. Venus moving into Cancer this same day provides more sensitivity and nurturing for ourselves and others.
On August 15 Mars aligns with Saturn in Libra, which can bring misunderstandings in relationships and financial dilemmas. These can be worked through with a patient and practical approach. A significant t-square pattern also occurs on this day when Venus opposes Pluto and squares Uranus, again triggering this ongoing aspect. This pattern can indicate sudden, unexpected changes in relationships, based on a need for more independence and freedom." forts.
