A fiery Virgo New Moon, tightly squared by Mars, highlights August’s second half. We also have four aspect patterns, mostly focused on Mercury, including a Grand Trine, Mystic Rectangle, Kite and Thor’s Hammer. And we have Uranus turning retrograde!

Whatever your Sun Sign, my forecasts can help you make the best use of the current astrological energies. All dates and times are in the U.S. eastern time zone. Events are most powerful on the dates listed, but their influence will be active for at least a week before and after.

Everyone is affected by these global transits. However, you’ll be most powerfully impacted when moving planets activate sensitive points in your natal chart. Discover how these transits will personally affect you by booking a session with me.

As of August 16 …

• The Moon is waning (there was an Aquarius Full Moon on 8/11).
• Pluto is retrograde thru 10/8.
• Jupiter is retrograde thru 11/23.
• Chiron is retrograde thru 12/23
• There’s a Pallas Athena-Chiron-South Node Yod through 8/20
• There’s a Sun-Saturn-Uranus-Lunar Nodes T-Square through 8/20
• There’s a Mercury-Juno-Uranus-Lunar Nodes Mystic Rectangle through 8/21
• There’s a Mercury-Uranus-Neptune-Pluto Kite through 8/24
• There’s a Saturn-Uranus-Lunar Nodes T-Square thru 12/26

An intense “Grand Crossed” Aquarius Full Moon highlights the first half of August. This Grand Cross is based on the Saturn-Uranus square that’s given us such a tumultuous year and a half.

There’s also harmonious potential as a Mercury Kite stimulates this decade’s most important aspect pattern: a Uranus-Neptune-Pluto Mini Grand Trine. This outer planet trio is just warming up, but will empower the Aquarian Age as it strengthens.|

We also have more aspect patterns. These include a peaking Triple Conjunction, a new “Finger of God” for trauma healing, a Mystic Rectangle, and more. Let’s explore!
