Sunday, August 31st: the Moon continues in Scorpio, the evaluator, all day.

The Moon sextiles Pluto, 1:09 AM: if you are awake, this is a great time to be having a heart-to-heart talk with anyone that you are emotionally connected to. If you’re asleep, this just make your dreams bit more intense.

The Moon conjuncts Saturn, 2:10 PM: we are taking a hard look at reality this afternoon. This can be a good time to be focused on a particular project and pushing through until you’re completed. Emotionally, we may be feeling unappreciated or just melancholy. Watch out for too much self-criticism.

The Moon conjuncts Mars, 8:51 PM: this evening our emotions are especially expressive and dynamic. We all might feel a bit edgy and defensive during this time. It’s a good time for workout, an adventure, or just challenging yourself

All times are CDT.

Saturday, August 30th: The day begins with the Moon void-of-course in Libra for a brief period of time. The Moon enters Scorpio, the sign of regeneration, at 3:53 AM. This will help bring some stability to our Saturday.

The Moon trines Neptune, 3:42 PM: We are feeling very philosophical and are speaking in broad terms about our self and the world around us. All of us are feeling more connected to The Force.”

The Moon sextiles the Sun, 6:17 PM: This is a nice planetary energy combination and is good for practically any type of activity. It would be a very good time for entertaining, but in the back of your mind, you clearly have a reason and agenda for doing what you are doing. This would be an excellent time to hold an open house, discuss the financial markets, or just enjoy your really close friends.

The Moon squares Jupiter, 11:01 PM: We definitely feel free and loose this evening. If you are partying, be careful that you don’t overdo it. All of us will feel like we need a change of scenery, and may be a little bored this evening.

All times are CDT.

Friday, August 29th: The Moon transits Libra, the sign of the strategist, for the entire day. However, she does turn void-of-course at 11:00 AM and remains so for the remainder of the day, and into the wee hours of Saturday morning.

The Moon opposes Uranus, 12:30 AM: This is a very mentally stimulating energy and may keep us up later than we are used to. If you are awake, this a very creative time, although a bit erratic.

The Sun opposes Neptune, 9:33 AM: Realistically, this is a good day to take off and have a mental health day. This is a good time to retreat from the overwhelming stresses of day-to-day life. We will be much more psychically sensitive, and plugged into lots of the problems that are occurring on a global scale. If you can, keep your agenda very light to nonexistent. However, it is a great day to get to the beach or away from our normal routines. This aspect is in effect today and tomorrow and may keep the mood around us low key.

The Moon sextiles Venus, 11:00 AM: If you have to be out, this is a good time to meet with people that you like. Or, in the business world, this is a good time to be dealing with the clients that you really like. Likewise, this planetary combination works better if you are doing things you like to do.

The Moon is now void-of-course in Libra at 11:00 AM until she enters determined Scorpio at 3:53 AM, on Saturday morning.

As you can see, we have a strong Neptunian retreat-oriented day and a void-of-course Moon. This energy does not favor a day when you can get a lot done, for business people. If you are at the beach, it’s a perfect day.

All times are CDT.

Thursday, August 28th: The Moon resides in diplomatic and urbane Libra for the entire day.

The Moon sextiles Jupiter, 11:44 AM: This is a good time for almost any type of activity. Generally, we are feeling happy and optimistic about whatever activity we are involved in. Make the most of this!

The Moon squares Pluto, 3:03 PM: In the afternoon we take a much harder look at our reality, and what’s going on around us. This is a no BS time, and can be a great time to get at the truth of something, so that our attitude and our energies are transformed into something a lot more positive. In the mundane world, it’s a great day to clean out your filing cabinet.

All times are CDT.

Wednesday, August 27th: The Moon begins the day void-of-course in virtuous Virgo. And, she will remain void-of-course for what is considered a normal work day for most of us; until 4:54 PM when she enters Libra. Plan your more important activities after that time.

Venus squares Mars, 10:46 AM: With these two planets challenging each others energies, this can certainly be a day where relationships are very edgy. People will feel justified in doing and saying whatever they really feel. People may feel blocked from achieving or getting what they need done. This also may escalate world tensions. In the hedonistic sense, it is a great time to indulge yourself in whatever sensual pleasures you like. This planetary combination will make everyone much more self-centered, and will be in effect today and tomorrow.

This energy would be better to work with if we weren’t under a void-of-course Moon. After the Moon enters Libra at 4:54 PM, we will feel much better, and will be able to work with this tension a lot easier. Plan your more important meetings after this time.

All times are CDT.

Tuesday, August 26th: The Moon travels through Virgo, the sign of the organizer. Although she is in Virgo for the entire day, she does become void-of-course late in the evening at 9:29 PM, and remains so for the rest of the evening.

The Moon trines Pluto, 3:08 AM: Whether we are awake or asleep, we are processing mental and emotional “stuff” in a very positive and healthy way.

Venus squares Saturn, 1:22 PM: With this aspect we are reassessing our relationship commitments, and our financial planning. This energy can make us feel that everything comes at a cost, and that the things we really seek don’t always seem worth the effort. Financial issues are in our face and forcing us to look at what’s going on. Watch out that you are not too negative and pessimistic about the outcomes. This aspect is in effect all day.

The Moon sextiles Saturn, 4:20 PM: We feel a little bit more upbeat from the earlier part of our day. We feel that we have some control back and this helps us feel much more safe and secure. Use this energy as a very good time for organizing or planning.

The Moon sextiles Mars, 5:38 PM: We are definitely more energetic this late afternoon; and this is a better time to contact clients, deal with the public, or slip out for workout at the gym. We will feel a lot better if the choices we make benefit us first.

The Moon conjuncts Mercury, 9:29 PM: We are definitely talking about our day this evening. This a good time for getting your feelings out there, letting people hear what you really feel and think. Use this energy as a productive time for writing, teaching, attending a lecture or blogging.

The Moon is now void-of-course in Virgo at 9:29 PM, and will remain so until late Wednesday afternoon at 4:54 PM, when she moves into Libra, the sign of the peacekeeper. This will be another of those long void-of-course Moon timeframes, 19 hours. It might make most of the day Wednesday seem not very productive, until later in the afternoon.

All times are CDT.

Monday, August 25th: The Moon starts the day void-of-course in warmhearted Leo. However, she will move into industrious Virgo at 4:33 AM, and remain there for the rest of the day.

This is a day when we will experience a lot of major planetary aspects throughout the entire day. This occurrence will likely make this a very high energy day where a lot of push and pull is required. We may feel very frustrated by early afternoon, so keep your options open.

Mercury sextiles Mars, 3:46 AM: This planetary combination certainly improves your logic and reasoning skills. But it also tends to amp up your nervous system and may make it difficult to sleep this early morning. This is a very good aspect for getting your point across to others, and it favors people in the communication industry, and those working in sales or in any area of negotiations. This aspect has been in effect since yesterday and will continue throughout the entire day.

The Moon enters Virgo, the sign of the maiden Persephone, at 4:33 AM. The Moon is no longer void-of-course. If you are awake, you are definitely feeling like getting your desk or your workplace in order. Busy hands are happy hands.

Venus trines Uranus, 4:38 AM: With this planetary combination, we are much more open to many different points of view, rather than; only those with which we are familiar. The energy of this aspect really emphasizes the Bohemian nature in all of us. This can also be a great time for relationship restructuring or renegotiations, both on a personal and business level. This aspect has been in effect since yesterday and will be in effect all day today.

Mercury sextiles Saturn, 7:30 AM: This aspect adds more energy to our productive day. And, this can be a great time for strategy meetings; any type of planning or organizational meetings; or, getting all the things done on our “to-do” list. The energy of this planetary combination will cause us to be more serious, and our choices will seem to carry greater weight. This aspect is in effect today and tomorrow.

The Moon conjuncts the Sun, 9:13 AM: This is the New Moon in Virgo, and with this New Moon, we are all going to work to improve our routines for the next 14 days.

Mars conjuncts Saturn, 2:30 PM: All of us have been feeling the energy of this planetary combination approaching for at least the last 2 to 3 days, and it will continue for another couple of days. Usually these are not the best of planets to be connected together. They can make us feel frustrated, and cause us to wait much longer than usual for anything that we want. And, sometimes this can make us feel that we are totally powerless, and can do nothing to change the environment around us. In a sense, the will of the individual comes into direct contact/conflict with social judgment. In a positive sense, these two planets are very good for delving into something that requires an extraordinary amount of dedication and follow through. And, the use of our time has to give us a real sense of satisfaction of the goal and the reward. Generally, this will slow the pace down, so if you want to just relax and chill out, you can make this work for you. If you are pushing too hard and you are not getting anywhere, stop pushing.

The Moon opposes Neptune, 5:15 PM: This is a very strange ending for this day because this planetary combo seeks isolation and retreat from the stresses and pressures of the day. This might be the perfect day to take off early and head home for some positive mental health activity. These energies are great for meditation, Yoga, Pilates, or Tai Chi.

All times are CDT.

Sunday, August 24th: The Moon resides in Leo, the sign of the leader, for the entire day. However, she does turn void-of-course at 3:26 AM, and remains so until Monday morning at 4:33 AM, when she enters Virgo. This is one of those long (25-hour) void-of-course Moon timeframes. Try and have a laid back Sunday!

The Moon trines Uranus, 12:22 AM: This planetary combination can keep us mentally active, but in a very pleasant way. If you are up late, it is a good time for a late-night snack with friends.

The Moon squares Mars, 1:40 AM: We feel strongly emotional and we do not hold much back. This could just be a difficult night to get a very restful amount of sleep.

The Moon squares Saturn, 3:26 AM: If you are awake, this is the time to review your past goals. And, it is a great time to look at setting new financial and security oriented endeavors.

The Moon now turns void-of-course in Leo at 3:26 AM, and remains so until Monday, when she enters efficient Virgo at 4:33 AM.

All times are CDT.

Saturday, August 23rd: The Moon occupies loyal and royal Leo for the entire day.

The Moon conjuncts Jupiter, 8:47 AM: We are more than ready to get our day going. This is an excellent morning for working outside in the garden; getting together with friends to discuss your favorite topics; or buying that new home. We are definitely feeling optimistic this morning.

The Moon conjuncts Venus, 9:01 PM: We end the week feeling happy and upbeat. So, these energies favor going on a date; spending the evening with a loved one; or, just indulging yourself in your favorite comfort foods!

All times are CDT.

Friday, August 22nd: The Moon starts the day void-of-course in “home loving” Cancer. This is a long Moon void-of-course time frame that is carried forward from Thursday afternoon. This is definitely the day to take a much more laid-back approach to whatever you are doing. If you have the opportunity, it would be much better to schedule important meetings after 3:49 PM, when the Moon enters dignified Leo.

There are no lunar aspects for this entire day. So even with the Moon is no longer void-of-course after 3:49 PM when she enters Leo, we still may not feel the same drive and direction that we would normally feel with the Moon moving into a fire sign.

The Sun enters Virgo, the sign of the harvest, at 11:46 PM. We may feel a lot more active and focused as the evening progresses.

All times are CDT.
