The weekly Astrology forecast for a holistic life with the planets

Welcome, dear readers, I am super excited to keep going with this blog and my Astrology work.

Some days are easier, some others harder, I am trying to focus on sharing tools to support you and also to build a practice with a strong holistic backbone where Astrology is not seen like a predictive tool but more like a way to heal, there is no fate but choices, free will and the human path that can be bumpy and tormented as we learn the lesson.

Coming back to stillness, to acceptance and love is very often the answer, learning the astrology of the day helps us to answer questions and master the energy.

For example, the past full Moon was a bit of a doozy, but once we know and accept that that is a moment of purging of the Ego and our individuality screams for freedom than we make peace and everything settles, even the most intense lunation is going to be quite because you are working with releasing, coming into peace and surrender.

I'm not suggesting you shouldn't fight or try things; rather, I'm saying that when faced with tension, we need to learn how to navigate through it. Often, when we're deeply involved, we can't see clearly, and that's when things become more difficult. My role is to help you gain clarity.

If you're a regular reader, please leave a comment to help me understand how astrology resonates.

Monday: The worst is behind us, and we enter a new week with the moon waxing. After a big full moon, an energetic hangover may linger. Be gentle today, especially because the moon is in Pisces; there is a softness, a pleasant, artistic, creative feeling.

The moon is heading towards the north node in the morning, and she will be in a positive trine with Venus and Jupiter early in the afternoon.

Simultaneously, a powerful Air grand trine involving Mars, Pluto, and Uranus is in effect. If you're a Gemini, Aquarius, or Libra, something has been nudging you since last week, and now you're gaining a clearer perspective.

There are significant chances for personal renewal, but Air can also be cold and, at its worst, detached or defensive. Use today to be inventive, think creatively, and steer challenges wisely to your advantage.

If you're a Cancer, Pisces, or Scorpio, take time to relax, enjoy some leisure activities, and dedicate moments to yourself. Consider going for a swim and embracing the elegant energy of the moon, Venus, and Jupiter.

If you have a strong fire Leo, Sagittarius or Aries think twice, breathe, soon you will be out of a few overheating situations

As well, if you are a stargazer, between today and tomorrow, the Jupiter and Venus conjunction will be visible before sunrise.

Today, around 18:30 Sydney time, Mercury station direct and Venus Venus-Jupiter conjunction goes exact.

Tuesday: We wake up with the end of Mercury retrograde, and everything can finally start to move forward. Mercury will stay under the shadow of the sun for another 2 weeks, so take it easy, but start to get things going, resume projects and plans.

Today as well, we wake up with the lovely conjunction between Jupiter and Venus and the Moon still in Pisces.

Today is probably one of the most positive days of the month of August, and it is great to connect with loved ones, family, and expand relationships and connections.

Use this Tuesday for kisses, kiss deeply, for a long time, or hug, massage your body, seriously be the lover, be the charmer, and open the heart.

Also, it's a great day to throw a party, go on a date, flirt, and have fun.

Check where Cancer is in your chart and understand what area this will be most effective for you. For example, this is happening in my 9th house, I will use this day to maybe set intentions for a new trip, but also new learnings, and expand my knowledge.

Wednesday: Today the moon enters Aries, and during the sunrise, it will conjunct Jupiter-Saturn and will apply to an opposition to Mars. This will not be felt as we are all asleep, but probably people in time zones behind may have a difficult Tuesday evening defined by some nervousness or a bad sleep, or for us already asleep, maybe waking up very early or having a little disruption of our regular cycles.

Apart from this brief transit of the moon, the day follows like yesterday, with the conjunction between Venus and Jupiter to bring some very lovely possibilities, new romance, connection, and time for the family.

If you are renovating or want to restyle the house, today is a great day for new ideas and finding a much more clever way of doing things.

If you are single and you are a Cancer, Pisces, or Scorpio, get that dating app going today, or just go out to meet people. If you are in a relationship, make love.

Today is ideal for relaxation, so take it easy. The feminine energy encourages unwinding, and regardless of your gender, your sensitive side is drawn to romance, rest, and creativity.

Thursday: The Moon is still in Aries, and she will be Void of Course for most of the day (Sydney time), so it's best to hold off on sending important emails or wait until tomorrow, particularly if you need a prompt response.

Today, a sextile between Mars and Mercury may bring good ideas and a need for action, but you may be too tired; basically, the brain is active, but the body may feel tired. This transit will be active until Saturday.

Mars in Libra is not a great energy for physical activity, and today may be more beneficial for thinking, choosing the right time to act, and pondering solutions.

Evaluating options is what you need; let the universe bring you solutions, alternative ways of doing things, and listen to the body.

The evening may be a little emotional as the moon meets Chiron. You are a powerful initiator with the ability to manifest your dream, embrace the uncomfortable and relax, don't be hard on yourself, and use the evening to soothe whatever at this point may feel a little painful.

Friday: The waning moon enters Taurus, marking the last quarter of the lunar cycle. Today might be less hectic as we officially conclude the month and reflect on what we planted during the new moon in Leo.

Throughout this Leo season, themes of self-esteem, self-worth, and our unique traits have been prominent. We have observed ourselves from different perspectives, recognizing the impact of an egocentric viewpoint.

As we close the month, it's a time to balance letting go and embracing the new. We may feel more fatigued and ready to relax, especially today and tomorrow, while the moon is in Taurus. Attend to your needs, nourish yourself, take a bath, moisturize, and ground.

The pleasure of the darkness and the needs of the senses are a great topic for today.

We all speak about the light, but what about the darkness of the primordial creation, the place where the soul rests, what about the comfort of the night when we are asleep?

We need both, and from now until the new moon, take it easier.

The weekend:

Saturday, the moon will be in Taurus all day long. The waning Moon in Taurus is relaxing, resting, and taking it easy; there is no rush today.

This is a great weekend to have people coming over or organize something relaxing with our closest friends without going over the top.

It is a pajama party type of Saturday with a glass of wine and board games, eating your favorite food, and cake.

Sunday, around 2:00 am Eastern Australia time, the Moon enters Gemini and early in the morning applies to a conjunction with Uranus.

Sunday morning is great for communication, studying, writing, or channeling new, innovative ideas.

The Moon moving through Gemini activates the Air energy that was strong during Wednesday. You may want to get too much done, considering the amount of time you have available. The risk today is starting too many things without finishing them.

Have a lovely week, Astro family.
