Wednesday, August 31st, the Moon, our emotional guide, starts the day void-of-course in Leo. The Moon will enter routine oriented Virgo at 10:22 AM. You may want to plan the more important meetings of your day after that time.

Although the Moon is not void-of-course, there are no aspects for the day. We are lead more by our emotional and intuitive side of our being through the day.

Being in the dark of the Moon, we are much more sensitive to the energies around us. We may feel that we are waiting for something to start. Choose your company wisely today.

The next aspect is the Solar Eclipse on Thursday morning at 4:03 AM. We should get some relief from the heaviness after that time.

All times are central.

Tuesday, August 30th, the Moon continues to visit spicy Leo all day and does go void-of-course at 11:20 PM!

Moon trine Mars, 2:51 AM: If you are up late, this can give you clear thinking. Otherwise, it may activate your dream state! There are no other aspects until the end of the day. We may not feel as focused as usual.

Mercury, our planet of communication, transportation and commerce goes stationary retrograde at 8:04 AM. With Mercury retrograde it’s a good time for cleaning up your closets, reorganizing your filing cabinets and finishing up some projects you have been working on. We have been experiencing the effects of Mercury retrograde since the middle of last week. It will be best to avoid purchasing electronic equipment, automobiles, signing any documents or starting any new projects. You can do that when Mercury is direct on 27th.

Moon trines Uranus, 11:20 PM: We get a little blast of energy late in the evening. It’s a good time for writing or creative thinking. We may be awake later than we had planned.

The Moon is now void-of-course at 11:20 PM until 10:22 AM tomorrow morning.

All times are central.

Monday, August 29th, the Moon starts the day in Cancer but goes void-of-course at 1:23 AM  and quickly enters dashing Leo at 3:11 AM and is no longer void-of-course.

Moon sextiles Venus, 1:23 AM: A great time for an early morning breakfast with that special someone! Otherwise, a great time for sleeping.

Moon sextiles Mercury, 1:23 AM: If you are awake, you are mentally active. We are doing some reorganizing in our brain while we are sleeping.  A place for everything and everything in its place.

Mercury conjuncts Venus, 1:23 AM: With this aspect in effect for the next couple of days, we should be able to speak effectively and be able to sell or promote our ideas or views to others. If you are in sales, this is great energy to connect with existing clients! For the rest of us, it may just be a nice day!

The Moon is now void-of-course at 1:23 AM but quickly enters zesty Leo at 3:11 AM and is no longer void-of-course.

Venus enters Libra at 9:07 PM and visits for the next 27 days. This will help us to be more relationship conscious and make it easier to find a compromise or a more shared point of view. Our spatial point of view is emphasized with Venus in Libra.

Moon trines Saturn, 9:20 PM: We are able to work at a tasks this evening until we get things completed. This is always a good time for planning, getting our home organized or preparing for the next’s days agenda.

All times are central.

Sunday, August 28th, the Moon spends the entire day in Cancer, the sign that rules genetics.

Moon opposes Pluto, 12:39 AM: A great time to process emotional issues in your sleep. If you are awake, you are releasing emotional fears from your past.

Moon square Uranus, 4:41 PM: We will need to keep our schedule flexible during the afternoon and our obligations minimal. We might be feeling bored and need some distractions.

Moon sextile Jupiter, 10:54 PM:  We are more open minded as we finish the evening with a wonderful aspect for getting together with friend or family.  And equally a great evening to enjoy a movie and some popcorn!

All times are central.

Friday, August 26th, the Moon starts the day in versatile Gemini, goes void-of-course at 7:30 PM and then enters the homey sign of Cancer at 10:06 PM and is no longer void-of-course.

Mars squares Neptune, 1:57 AM: With this combination of planets, we feel the increased activation of this sluggish period we have been living with since the end March 2016. Maybe the best way to respond to this is to do only the things we are drawn to do, even if that means doing nothing. We are focused on ourselves.  And it may be best to make sure that where ever you are, at work or home; that you find the personal benefit in being where you are. Otherwise, this combination can make us feel like we are slaves to a system, imprisoned by our lack of action. We are searching for the illusion of the heroine/hero; someone….anyone…to rescue us from the out of control hate and violence that we all are living with. First, we have to find that peace in our selves. Make sure that you take time to yourself. Make sure that you are making decisions that support you! Let go of the struggle if you can and try and blend with the dust. This aspect continues to be strong for the next 5 days.

Moon sextiles Uranus, 12:03 PM: We are feeling more alert as these two planets connect. This is a more upbeat time of the day. A good time to connect with clients or friends.

Moon squares Venus, 3:12 PM: If you are working, this is a good time to appeal to your client’s or customer’s interest and needs. We are all feeling more self-centered at this time. And be sure you have an extra goodie for yourself.

Moon square Jupiter, 5:09 PM: We are looking for the finish line this late afternoon. We are certainly needing some space. Don’t let yourself get bogged down in the details. Look for the headlines and work with that.

Moon square Mercury, 7:30 PM: Keep your schedule very flexible this evening. We are more interested in distractions this evening. A great time for a movie, a play, or doing some online gaming. Have some fun!

All times are central.

Thursday, August 25th, the Moon continues in Gemini, the sign of transportation and communication, the whole day.

Moon opposes Saturn, 11:29 AM: We are on task this morning, getting things done. Don’t lament about the “shoulda, woulda, coulda” and not using your time well. You can’t plan for everything!!!  And be sure and stop and give yourself some personal credit for getting your agenda completed.

Moon opposes Mars, 12:34 PM: Don’t let the lunch time frustrate you!  You may be wanting to push forward and the universe is saying to slow day and take your time. Use your energy wisely. Give yourself plenty of extra time to get things done this afternoon.

Moon square Neptune, 1:07 PM: We may lose some of our motivation as these two planets connect. This is a good time for writing, being creative, yoga,  or an afternoon nap. You will need some time to yourself.  This slow energy pattern will follow us through Sunday. Pace yourself and don’t over commit.

All times are central.

Wednesday, August 24th, the Moon starts the day in slow but steady Taurus, goes void-of-course at 2:38 PM and then enters mentally active Gemini at 6:40 PM.

We are in an intense time energetically through this weekend. We have the opportunity to see ourselves clearly, take responsibility for our choices and put more compassion into our daily life.

Mars conjunct Saturn, 6:27 AM: These two planets have been interacting with each other strongly over the last 4 days. In the most positive of terms, we can use the pioneering and adventuresome  nature of Mars along with the planning and risk management of Saturn to make decisions to initiate new projects, businesses or even focusing on improving our health. We could also fall to the negative side of this planetary interaction by over analyzing our plan so that we don’t know what to do at all. We may be too fearful to take any action to improve or empower ourselves. We could be letting our own fear fuel an inner rage. This is a time to make careful choices.  Develop a plan of action and follow it. Trust yourself and your choices. This energy remains strong through Sunday. It is also being intensified by the upcoming Mars/Neptune square, the illusion of being the hero, on Friday.

Moon trines Venus, 7:06 AM: If you can drag yourself out of bed, it’s a great morning to smell the flowers. And even a better time to be enjoying breakfast with that special someone.

Moon trines Jupiter, 1:06 PM: A good afternoon for connecting with clients, taking some training classes or just having that extra cup of coffee.

Moon trine Mercury, 2:38 PM: We are able to organize and think well this afternoon. This is a good period to take your time and deal with detail.

The Moon is now void-of-course in Taurus until 6:40 PM when Luna enters Gemini. Keep the middle part of your afternoon agenda more flexible.

Moon squares Sun, 10:41PM: We are feeling a little tense this evening and maybe even a little stir crazy. Distraction always helps. A good evening for a late night snack and a detective movie.

All times are central.

Tuesday, August 23rd, the Moon, our emotional barometer, feels the earth beneath her feet as she travels through Taurus all day!  Mercury is retrograde, take your time and go slow. Mercury is direct Sept, 28th.

Moon sextiles Neptune, 10:32 AM: Our compassion is strong this morning. We can easily connect with others. It’s a good morning to open your heart to others.

Moon trine Pluto, 5:43 PM: We are serious this afternoon but productive as we focus on the task at hand. We are interested in getting to the bottom of things this later afternoon.  Take your time. Slow and steady wins the race!

All times are central.

Monday, August 22nd, the Moon continues through Aries as the day starts but does go void-of-course, at 6:48 AM. The Moon enters tantalizing Taurus at 4:19 PM. The Moon will be void most of the working day. Keep your plans and expectations simple and flexible. After the Moon enter Taurus, we are operating from a more grounded perspective. You may want to plan your move important events later in the afternoon.

Mercury conjuncts Jupiter, 4:05 AM: We can easily feel over done with information, with social media, talking heads, the political circus and astrologers trying to make sense of it all! Under good circumstances, this is a good time for furthering your education, making announcement, new border alignments with other countries or your neighbors and expanding your mind to a whole new paradigm. It is also a time when we may expect too much, or assume that everyone will want to follow our point of view of the truth when they only want us to listen to their point of view of the truth. It is a good day for brainstorming and long range planning. This aspect continues for the next 3 days.

Moon conjuncts Uranus at 6:48 AM: We are up early and we are ready to get our day going. Slow down as your nervous system is amped up and you may forget something.

The Moon is now void-of course in Aries at 6:48 AM until 4:19 PM. Keep your plans realistic till then.

Moon enters Taurus at 4:19 PM and is no longer void-of-course. We are feeling more stable and can prioritizes our lives easier.

Moon trines the Sun, 4:39 PM: In business, this is a much better time to connect with clients or customers. Our thinking and planning skills are working at their best.

Mercury is already slowing down and beginning to start it’s retrograde cycle. For a couple of reasons, I’m beginning the Mercury retrograde start date on Tuesday, August 23rd. Mercury will be out of retrograde by September 28th. The next few days could be fairly intense especially on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Make sure that you have an emotionally safe environment during that time.

All times are central.
