Astrology by Lisa Stardust

The week begins with the First Quarter Moon in Scorpio on August 12th, which ignites our intuition and strength. On August 14th, Mercury retrograde re-enters Leo, allowing us to reassess matters from the end of July. The same day, Mars forms a conjunction with Jupiter in Gemini, heightening our stress levels due to anxiety and projection from others. Mars squares Saturn retrograde in Pisces on the 16th, creating power dynamics with authority figures. Mercury unites with the Sun in Leo and squares Uranus in Taurus on August 18th, enabling us to shift our perspective and explore different philosophies. Meditation and self-care are important this week. Don’t feel as though you have to fight back. Not having the last word is having the last word. Protect your energy. 

Witch-tip:

The First Quarter Moon and Scorpio on August 12 is a time in which we will connect with ourselves to evoke our strength. The power we need to unlock is in our sacral chakra. To do so, it’s essential to keep our bodies moving to create the energy for ourselves. This helps us from obligations we no longer want to be a part of our body. This will allow us to ignite the flow of energy within ourselves. We might also find that wearing orange or having the color orange in our peripheral vision helps us, since it is the color of the sacral chakra. Lighting an orange candle can help motivate your body and bring change. 

Aries 

Listen to the gossip that’s being foretold. You may discover that it’s best for you to sit on the sidelines and not play a part in spreading rumors because they will only come back to haunt you. The best way to handle situations is to not engage in the collective vibe

Taurus 

You’re on the brink of artistic genius; however, you feel stuck in the middle of attaining success and unable to move forward. This week is not about taking action. Contemplate how you can use your visions to create genius for yourself and the endeavors you are part of.

Gemini 

Issues with authority figures are coming to a head since you do not want to take on projects or advice that they’re giving you. Invest in your own projects and focus on personal aspirations. You hold the key to unlocking your own achievements and dreams if you allow yourself to.

Cancer 

Take a step back and relax your mind. In order to do so, let yourself sleep longer hours, take healing baths, and engage with people that are supportive. This will enable you to connect with yourself and others on an emotional level that suits your spiritual growth and ignites your heart.

Leo

You’re being pulled from every direction, giving you minimum time to focus on yourself. You do not have to take on every endeavor. Being selective and mindful of your time allows you to have a different attitude and philosophy that encourages you to be successful in doing what you love.

Virgo  

Healing the past plays a vital role in how the week affects you. Being in harmony with yourself by straying from your inner critic will bring you peace of mind. Treat yourself with TLC and give yourself a lot of respect for being able to mend hurtful and painful situations.

Libra 

Make sure that you are clear and defiant with your friends when stating your opinions. The only way to get your points across and to be heard is to take a stand and express your sentiments. Don’t back down from your points of view, especially when you know you’re right.

Scorpio

Before you start jumping to conclusions, make sure that all the facts are correct. False information could lead you towards having unwarranted arguments with others that aren’t based in reality. In order to avoid the drama, it’s important to assess matters and investigate them from the root up.

Sagittarius 

Your intuition is on fire! Pay attention to the psychic downloads that are being told to you at this time. They will help you plan out and understand your visions, as you are being given guidance from a higher realm that serves your dreams. Listen to your gut feelings.

Capricorn 

Burning midnight and working to the bone is affecting your stress levels. It is imperative to take time away from the daily grind to focus on how you can rejuvenate your body, mind, and spirit. This requires you to spend some alone time and implement self-care into your daily routine.

Aquarius 

Your dreams are expressing information to you that is conjuring a lot of repressed sentiments. These feelings are coming to your consciousness and pushing you to do the work needed in order to evolve forward. Facing your fears will enable action towards augmenting and mending them to currently take place.

Pisces 

Your anxiety might hold you back from taking on projects and dealing with others. To decompress, you should disconnect from the outside noises and center yourself on doing grounding activities such as connecting to the earth and nature, which will be critical in helping you transcend towards finding inner peace.
