Astrology Forecast September 6 – 12, 2021
Today’s New Moon in Virgo inspires our organizational and idealistic sensibilities as we embrace the new energy in the air. The first two days of the week will prove quite productive under this influence. Use this time to clear a path and start setting up new ventures and schedules. Venus in Libra trine Jupiter in Aquarius today and tomorrow adds to the idealistic and positive atmosphere. But be careful, as a Virgo New Moon can also cause us to be moody and irritable.
Balance will be the theme as the Moon cruises through Libra on Wednesday and Thursday, so we’ll be able to take a breather from the persistent pace of the previous two days. This will also be a good time to review our relationships and make sure we are connecting on a heart level with loved ones, rather than being superficial and insincere.
Wednesday’s Libra Moon conjunction Mercury in Libra will be a good day for business success and making lucrative deals. This aspect inspires us to be more focused, mentally clear and capable of making good decisions.
Venus will move into Scorpio on Friday, bringing our deeper desires and longings into focus. The spiritual aspect of Scorpio will infiltrate all we do, especially with the Moon in this sign on Friday and Saturday. Speak from the heart, follow your intuition, and trust the process. A lot of memories could surface under these influences. A walk down memory lane may fill us with gratitude and appreciation for the journey our path has taken us on.
Sunday’s Sagittarius Moon is all about having fun, so cast off the scattered vibes of this week and make this a ‘me day’ with lots of self-love and self-care. Take a day at the spa, a trip to your favorite spot, or spend the whole day catching up on all the shows you’ve missed. Whatever you choose to do, the main aim must be to feed your soul and nurture your spirit on your own terms.
Astrology Forecast August 30 – September 5, 2021
There is a fairly quiet vibe in the heavens this week, with no major astrological influences.
Today and tomorrow the Moon will travel through Gemini, inviting us to be more social. With Mercury in Libra today, this is also a good time to engage our talents for performing and public speaking. These are also good days to research information, consider your options, and change up your plans to suit your moods and desires.
Today’s Gemini Moon trine Venus in Libra is a powerful energy for romance, love and marriage. You and your partner may be unusually reliable and cheerful with each other today, and it should be easy for you to avoid arguments or conflicts in your relationship.
We will seek the comfort of home under Wednesday and Thursday’s Cancer Moon, choosing to focus on household chores or hide out under the covers in domestic solitude.
On Thursday the Mars in Virgo opposition with Neptune in Pisces could lead to a situation that you may not wish to deal with, but don’t avoid it. Instead, muster your inner strength and courage to face the issue and resolve the problem as quickly and calmly as possible. You will thank yourself for it later!
The only real action of the week heats up on Friday and through the weekend as the Moon dances into vibrant Leo and inspires us to shine. Leo represents generosity, love of self, and adventure, so we’ll move with our intuition to whatever calls us. As we close out the final days of summer and prepare to move into a new month and season, we’ll be finishing up undone tasks and mapping out a plan to bring our dreams for the future into being.
Astrology Forecast August 23 – 29, 2021
Today’s Pisces Moon will make it easier to see the spiritual side and higher purpose to all we do and encounter in this life. Be careful however to not overreact or withdraw too much from the world today, as the Pisces Moon conjunct Neptune in Pisces can make us more hypersensitive than usual.
Once the Moon moves into Aries tomorrow, we’ll have more drive and energy to get things done! This will be a great time to start new projects and take in very challenging tasks.
Thanks to the newly ensconced Virgo Sun today, all we essentially have to do is simply think something, and we can manifest it. Since Virgo rules health and technology, it is good idea to take action now to schedule that overdue medical checkup, as well update apps and clear out old files on your computer or smartphone. The time of Virgo is about taking care of business, and catching up on the procrastinated things you’ve been moving from list to list over the last two months!
The Moon will move into Taurus on Friday and continue the trend of getting things in order, especially on Saturday, when we’ll find it’s time to clear out the garage, clean up the garden, or make that household repair we’ve been putting off. It will also be best to stay busy at home doing something constructive, as the Taurus Moon square Jupiter in Aquarius could lead to reckless spending and love relationship issues. Doing useful chores might be the wise option.
Luckily, Sunday is a relaxed energy day, as Mercury moves into Libra and the Moon dances into Gemini. It is a day made for socializing, creative pursuits, or just being a shameless couch potato! Enjoy.
Astrology Forecast August 16 – 22, 2021
A sense of peace and balance emerges in the heavens this week, as Venus, Mercury, the Sun, and Neptune all travel through their home signs generating the message that all is right with the world.
The week starts off on a lighter note under today and tomorrow’s Sagittarius Moon. However, focus on staying centered an grounded today as a Sagittarius Moon square Mars in Virgo may cause to be unusually agitated or impulsive, and there is also the possibility of getting into an unwanted argument with your significant other. Do not take the bait and keep your cool!
When the Moon moves into Capricorn on Wednesday, our productive sides will emerge and have us making up for lost time before the weekend arrives.
Uranus will be slowing to go retrograde on Thursday, but its effects will be so subtle we may not even notice. This planet will travel backward for the net five months, not resuming forward motion until mid-January of next year. This energy gives us the chance to go back and do things differently, revise our plans and ideas, and to realize the bigger picture Spirit is painting for us.
Friday and Saturday the Moon will travel through Aquarius, bringing out our social and humanitarian sides. This is a great time to reach out to friends and family to see how they are doing and make sure they have everything they need.
Two major events occur on Sunday, starting with the second Aquarius Full Moon of the year (the last one was in July), followed by the Sun’s entry into Virgo. A Virgo Sun helps us prepare to move into a new season, as it inspires us to organize, recommit to a schedule and pay closer attention to the details of our lives. For the next four weeks, we’ll find ourselves drawn to a more orderly and balanced way of living, and as we take stock of the things we are preparing to harvest after a long season, our gratitude levels and sense of accomplishment will become apparent.
Astrology Forecast August 9 – 15, 2021
You may feel overwhelmed or take on too much today and tomorrow, as the Moon moves through expansive Virgo. Remember to pace yourself and where possible, delegate!
Venus in Virgo opposite Neptune in Pisces could create some awkwardness in our relationships and romantic lives today. Former sexual inhibitions or shyness may resurface, or unfilled erotic desires may emerge that could lead to uncharacteristic behavior and unwise sexual choices. Avoid the temptation to stray from a committed relationship today, as it may not end well.
Tomorrow’s Mercury in Leo opposition to Jupiter in Aquarius may cause conflict in discussions about religion and politics. We may also be prone to talk to much and even reveal confidential information that is not ours to disclose. So, tomorrow it may be best to keep our opinions to ourselves, stay out of the office gossip, and say as little as possible, despite our burning curiosity.
The Libra Moon will fortunately lighten the mood for the second half of the week, allowing us to flow with more realistic and achievable goals. That will be punctuated by Mercury’s move into Virgo – it’s ruling sign. It is the perfect time to brainstorm, map out a plan of action, or gather missing details for future projects.
Mercury in Virgo has a way of bringing forgotten ideas to the surface, so we may experience an ‘aha moment’ later this week, as we recall important obligations that have fallen to the back burner. We may also think of friends we’ve lost touch with (social media could reconnect us) and go in search of lost items or paperwork.
A Scorpio Moon this weekend will inspire us to dive deeper into neglected creative or spiritual pursuits. And with Venus moving into its ruling sign of Libra, romance or the search for true love could also prove a fruitful endeavor on Sunday.
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.
Astrology Forecast July 26 – August 1, 2021
If you are single, you can probably take things easy today, as the Pisces Moon calls us to reflect, remember and relax. However, the Moon’s opposition to Venus in Virgo may give rise to intense emotion and frustrated passion that may leave the rest of us feeling restless or discontented in our long-term relationships and marriages. Problems may be forthcoming with partners that can upset our domestic bliss.
Mercury will enter Leo tomorrow, urging our hearts and minds forge ahead into new enterprises over the next few weeks as it energizes and inspires us! The Pisces Moon sextile with Uranus in Taurus will further increase our ability to focus our attention and be more persuasive and determined in our dealings with others.
Things heat up even more Wednesday through Thursday as the Moon marches through Aries and Jupiter, that has gone retrograde since June 20, now backtracks into Aquarius. This can generate a sense of rebellion or frustration, and we’ll need to be careful when anger or aggressiveness rises up. Maintaining composure is of utmost importance until this energy passes.
Luckily, Mars will move into Virgo late Thursday and restore a sense of grounding and decorum to our words and actions. Once Mars, the planet of action, gets settled in Virgo, we’ll have two months of organized and detailed focus, which will give us the power to manifest on a high level.
The ideal aspect of an Aries Moon sextile Jupiter in Aquarius will end the work week on a perfect, optimistic note with financial and social success, and high spirits. With the Moon moving through Taurus over the weekend, we are likely to fill the weekend with productive movement and fun-filled activities. Just try to maintain a good balance: getting your chores done before running out to play is always a good idea.
