August 3 – Full Moon in Aquarius (11:59 am)
Time to bring the New Age Aquarian Warrior within! Today is a day fueled by the desire for sharing our internal passions, feelings, TRUTH, and calling for freedom not only for yourself but for all. Today weâre really feeling that âno one left behindâ sentiment and ready to do something about it. Full moons are a passionate time already and you may feel pulled between sharing your individuality with disregard to humanity as a whole, or vice versa. Try to find the balance between the two and share from that place. What will move you and inspire others to step into the light and call on their shadows? Leo and Aquarius do have a flair for the drama and have a rebellious streak, so try not to get swept up in it but hold your truth from a neutral place where youâre out of the battlefield and actually in true freedom where you’re not playing the game of duality any longer. A full moon like this could see more marches in the streets or people battling it out on social media…stay strong!
August 4 – Mercury enters Leo
Now letâs bring in Mercury the planet of communication, commerce, and the illumination of thought into grandiose Leo! If August 3rdâs Full Moon wasnât enough for you to grab that microphone and step on stage to speak your truth…then this transit might just be the nudge you need! Our communication will be more expressive.
August 7 – Venus enters Cancer
Venus in Cancer helps to tame all this fire energy and reminds us to feel our emotions, be present in our partnerships, and loving in our relationships. The way we inspire and interact is best received through love, devotion, and care…and that means for yourself too. You may feel like you want to take family vacations (if it is open!) or to spend more time at or close to home with loved ones. Our home-life will become more of a focus during this time and many people may be moving, traveling, or getting ready to do so during this transit.
August 8 – Lion’s Gate reaches the highest peak!
Lion’s Gate Portal is a time of increased cosmic energy flowing between the physical and spiritual realms. This is a powerful vortex that allows supercharged light codes to flood our planet. It’s marked by the alignment of the Earth and the star Sirius (the brightest star we can see with the naked eye) and is a time of increased cosmic energy. From our perspective here of planet Earth, it appears as though there are two suns in the sky. This portal appears in Leo which is associated with the heart center and calls for a powerful expression of the self and of the Divine. This intensified cosmic energy awakens DNA light codes, activates the aura, and charges up high vibrational frequencies of awakening.
August 15 – Uranus Retrograde in Taurus
Knows as âThe Great Upheavalâ, Uranus is the planet of rebellion, ideation, radical and creates revolutionary change. Taurus represents our personal finances, our foundation, security, possessions, self-worth, and self-love. Yeah, we will be going through some changes when Uranus slows down to go back over the same degrees it just covered the last 4-5 months…so we have a time of review. It goes like this – Where have you not taken the reins to create change in your life, the change you know needs to happen? What have you avoided that you know would help to move your life forward in terms of your security, your personal finances, your self-worth? Is there work you need to do that youâre putting off? Time to address it so your higher-self doesnât have to force your hand.
August 18 – New Moon in Leo (10:41 pm)
Renewed faith in yourself! The New Moon brings with it a fresh surge of self-confidence, pride in ourselves, and the passion to take responsibility for our creative nature. Leo rules the 5th house of romance, children, and playfulness…all very creative states to amplify during this moon! Itâs such a passionate new moon that plans made around this time can bring on new beginnings that reap exciting rewards in the weeks and months ahead. Leo reminds us to take life less seriously, to love each other, to play, to have fun being your creative badass self, and know that everything is always working out for you when youâre living in your heart and leading from that place. There may be something thatâs been nagging at you for a while that just drops off due to this lunation…thatâs because youâre doing the work to alchemize your shadow into light more and more and more! Exciting times ahead!
August 19 – Mercury enters Virgo
Mercury will slide into Virgo before we officially head into Virgo Season giving us a taste of the precise, focused, and grounded energy weâre going to need to get our buns moving on our manifestations. Our mind gets more analytical and decisive, critical, and into the details of moving projects and manifestations. Roll up your sleeves because itâs almost time to get down to work. Mercury will remain in Virgo until September 5.
The Sun will move into Virgo on August 22. Get ready to have a fabulous month of going big, having fun, renewing your spirit, and gaining the courage and confidence to embody your natural, spiritual self.
