August promises to be
a busy month as events unfold regarding your professional, home and personal
life. Positive developments in these
areas are strongly indicated. Just tone down impatience or what could be
perceived as a short fuse for the best results.
Throughout August,
Mercury (Communications, travel and intellect) will travel through Cancer,
Virgo and Leo. The month begins with Mercury in your 7th House of Cancer. The
first week of August enhances your already outstanding communication skills. Just make sure to be clear and diplomatic in
your dealings and conversations with VIPs. On 8/8, Mercury enters Leo, your 8th
House. Conversations tend to involve subjects that some may consider
controversial. You could also be dealing with legal documents, insurance issues
and wills. Mercury will be in Leo until 8/23, when it enters Virgo and your 9th
House of overseas travel and publishing where it remains until 9/9. With
Mercury in Virgo, the focus abruptly shifts to matters that concern your
worldviews, higher learning and education. You could be focused on people from
overseas and those at a distance. August promises to be a fast paced month with
lots of conversations regarding where you live, what you do for a living and
how you can instigate change where it is needed most.
A New Moon occurs in
Leo on 8/6. Leo is your 8th House of taxes, insurance and mortgages. This New
Moon promises to bring good news your way, Capricorn. Circle this date on your
calendar as positive opportunities occur relating to finances. You could be
offered a raise in pay or catch a lucky break when it comes to dealing with
banks, investments, loans, mortgages and shared resources.
Mars (Physical
energy/drive and sexuality) will transit Cancer (Your 7th House of marriage)
until 8/27, when it enters Leo. Mars in your 7th House brings about passion but
it can also bring on some arguments with partners. With Mars in your 7th House,
you feel a strong need to spend as much time as possible at home. Cancer rules
home life and with Mars in Cancer, a passionate relationship consumes your time
and focuses your energy on your current residence and family members. There
could be days throughout this transit where you don't want to leave your home.
All things domestic continue to be your biggest motivation throughout this
transit that lasts until 8/27. Expect your sexuality to be heightened and do
your best to avoid any arguments with relatives and partners, personal or
professional. Mars brings passion but if not channeled properly can also create
some disagreements and misunderstandings.
Venus (Love) begins
the month in the compatible earth sign of Virgo. Virgo is your 9th House of
overseas travel, higher learning and people from other cultures. You can expect
to make gains through travel or publishing and find yourself attracting someone
from a foreign country. A business venture could expand and you could be
offered a contract to work with people overseas. Love could also be found when
taking a class or while travelling. Venus will enter Libra on 8//16 and the
focus shifts to your 10th House of career, prestige and your professional
visibility. Expect to be surprised by the attention you receive in professional
matters during this transit that lasts until 9/11. Women will be helpful to you
in your professional affairs and you could find that your hard work brings the
recognition you have been seeking and deserve.
Another Full Moon
occurs in Aquarius on 8/20. This Full Moon brings news of a financial matter to
your attention. Although tension is in the air, you conclude that you're in a
much better position financially than you previously thought. Money and
finances will be in the spotlight on this date.
The signs of Aries,
Taurus and a Scorpio will be involved in key discussions this month affecting
your professional, home and personal life. A Libra promises to be helpful and
supportive regarding a transition that occurred or is about to occur. You can
expect a Libra to help you sort through any confusion or temporary
misunderstandings that come up suddenly.
