Astrology Forecast August 2 – 8, 2021
This week will produce more talk than action as it kicks off under a socially-oriented Gemini Moon. Sharing ideas, spouting opinions, and a higher than usual volume of Google searches and YouTube watching will the themes for today and tomorrow, as we strive to learn something new or get our ideas confirmed.
The Leo Sun opposition with Saturn in Aquarius may cause professional problems today. If you feel unsure about a work or business decision be careful not to overreact with fake confidence. If you need advice, reach out to your dad or mentor, or a father-figure in you life.
Tomorrow will be a good time to ask someone on a date or reach out to a current love interest, as Venus in Virgo trine Uranus in Taurus will get us in the mood for love and romance.
We’ll be operating in slow motion as the Moon dances through Cancer Wednesday through Friday, where the most we’ll be able to accomplish might be a good house cleaning or redecorating project. We’ll need to focus on balance, as a tendency to people-please or give away something we need may tend to prevail.
So, to use this energy more wisely, it’s a great time to give to yourself and to go with the flow, rather than worrying about what you ‘should be doing,’ or how to get to chores and obligations. There will be plenty of time for that when the Moon moves into Leo on Saturday and revives our energy and focus.
Sunday’s Leo New Moon promises that we’re ready to move into new ventures, projects, and cycles of attainment over the next two weeks, so get ready to rock and roll.
August 2021 Astrology Forecast
August 2021 will be easier to navigate compared to June and July. Fire energy embodies the first half of this month, giving us the motivation and desire to make things happen.
We start the month off with an energetic New Moon in Leo next week on August 8th. New moons represent fresh beginnings and offer wonderful opportunity for manifesting, letting go of bad habits, or starting a new routine.
Leo is associated with the heart and the inner child and gives us the courage to rise above challenging circumstances. If you have been feeling down, or a victim of injustice, this new moon will help you reclaim your power and take a stand, if necessary.
On August 11th the planet of communication, Mercury, will move into Virgo for about 20 days. Our conversations with others will be practical, down to earth, and focused. This will be an optimal time to schedule that appointment with your health, wellness, or energy healing provider to address any concerns you may have.
Venus the planet of love, enters into Libra on August 16th and will assist us in creating a sense of balance in our relationships. If you have been giving too much of yourself, this transit will encourage you to pay attention to your own needs and cultivate a stronger sense self-love.
A Full Moon in Aquarius occurs on August 22nd and brings situations to a culmination. This moon cycle is favorable for removing and releasing anything that doesn’t serve your highest good. Since it’s in the sign of Aquarius, think about your purpose, what makes you unique and how you can help to create a better world.
The Sun transits into Virgo on the same day as the full moon. This earthly energy will help us get grounded, adopt a more logical approach, and set healthier boundaries. Getting organized, tidying up our homes, and paying attention to the details is the best way to work with Virgo.
