ASTROLOGY AUGUST 25 – SEPTEMBER 1, 2018

ARIES (Mar 21 – Apr 20)
The Sun is in Virgo. This changes the mood of the moment significantly. It brings you to ground. It makes you take care of details. It stops you from going headlong into the unknown. Use this moment to consider the true nature of your journey. Forgo the fun of chasing your own tail.

TAURUS (Apr 21 – May 20)
As Uranus starts to bring in his cup full of surprises, so you may find yourself contemplating the nature of your hopes and dreams. Which ones are desirous phantasms – and which ones are truly dear to your heart and soul? This is a turning point of sorts. You are preparing for spring.

GEMINI (May 21 – June 21)
Even if nobody is picking up on all that you are giving to the world, know in your heart that you are an emperor, or empress. External opinion rarely has much to do with what is going on in reality. Opinion and wisdom are generally miles apart. Esteem yourself, separately to public opinion.

CANCER (June 22 – July 22)
The Moon will be full this week, in fellow water sign, Pisces. Though you are capable of navigating both practical earth and intuitive water, this week is weighted to the latter. Allow the full Moon to do her work of opening your heart to all the deep feelings that often get covered in grime and dust.

LEO (July 23 – Aug 22)
As the Sun moves into Virgo, so you are left to contemplate events that have recently unfolded. Mercury is still in Leo. Should you go for insight and understanding, it will be made available to you. Should you wish to narrate your tale to embellish your ego, that is your responsibility.

VIRGO (Aug 23 – Sept 22)
As the Sun moves into Virgo, so life pulls all your frayed and fragmented bits into alignment. This is what the Sun does. It creates order. It promotes unification. The full Moon in Pisces will challenge you almost immediately – to keep your humanism alive and stop taking hard lines.

LIBRA (Sept 23 – Oct 23)
Venus is in your sign, bringing you the sense of harmony and justice that keeps you sane. The full Moon in Pisces early in the week, gives you a chance to take your experience of delight a whole step deeper. Keep your eyes open for moments of intimacy that can give you a taste of bliss.

SCORPIO (Oct 24 – Nov 21)
The focus is shifting from saying what you have to say, to consolidating your resources and building on your resilience and strength. You have given what you needed to give. It was either accepted, rejected or ignored. Now it’s time to move on. Put your own house in working order.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
Communication is imperative. There are things you need to say. The Virgo Sun is making you circumspect, which is fortunately tempering your tendency to shoot from the hip. Slow down. Know your audience. With compassion and awareness, you won’t shoot yourself in the foot.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
There is more reflection going on than action. This is inevitable, as the three powerful planetary guests you are playing host to (Mars, Saturn and Pluto), all go retrograde. The full Moon in oceanic Pisces brings all sorts of currents of longing to the surface. The Virgo Sun will keep you steady.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20 – Feb 18)
The Moon sails through Aquarius, on the way to becoming as full as a boot in Pisces a day later. This particular Moon will put wind in your sails and give you the capacity to navigate currents that would normally stump you. You will find your feet in places you normally avoid treading.

PISCES (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
The full Moon arrives in your sign early this week. This will give you all the confidence you need, to confront practical obstacles that generally tend you make you nervous. By staying in the present moment and not letting your worries and imagination get the better of you, miracles abound.
