Astrology Weekly: August 15-21
Weekly Moon Phases
August 15-16: first quarter
August 17-19: waxing gibbous
August 20-21: full moon in Pisces!
Current Planetary Zodiacs: (big 5, not including moon)
Sun in Leo: The proud, theatrical, and outgoing Leo shines in the Sun until August 22nd. We tend to be more generous, and grander with our plans. We focus more on the self instead of others.
Mercury in Virgo: in Virgo from August 11-August 30. Mercury is at home in this sign, and feels comfortable, which means that communication, intake of information/learning, and technology are improved and comfortable to us! Precise thinking before careful doing (and saying) is important to us. Details as well.
Venus in Virgo, then Libra: I'm sure astrologers have heard that Venus in Virgo is not a fun placement. However, I think that in terms of love languages, Virgo brings out quality time and acts of service. You want sense and purpose, and for not only your partner but yourself to be satisfied. However, don't be too picky or critical of your partners.
Venus in Libra: Venus is at home in this sign on August 16th, so Venus' energies are energized. Venus in Libra is charming and collected, and we seek out relationships, making us willing to compromise, especially with a partner. However, be wary of being too dependent on someone. This is a great time for bonding with your partner or trying to find one!
Mars in Virgo: Mars is in Virgo from July 29-September 14. This placement is not that comfortable in Mars, but it brings the mental work drive and preciseness that Mars encourages. The devil's in the details with Virgo.
Important Aspects:
For those who don't know: aspects are angles that determine how each planet's energies react with another planet's. They can affect an overall chart's meaning by giving more insight into how that planet behaves under its current zodiac sign.
-Uranus Retrograde: On August 19, Uranus turns retrograde in Taurus, and remains in retrograde for 5 months. With this retrograde, there's a rose-colored lens on our eyes. We become less rebellious and might challenge the changes in our day-to-day life.
Go outside your comfort zone!

I'm not all-knowing (wish I was), just here to educate and give my personal opinion and advice that I think correlates with the placements of the planets in order to create the best possible scenarios & versions of ourselves. Thank you for supporting me!
