It's astrology time! Let's look at the week ahead…

We start the week off with the Moon in Gemini in a challenging aspect with the Sun in Virgo. This is called a third quarter moon and is about wrapping up things that were came up during the Full Moon. 

So that we are free to set pure intentions when we have the New Moon in Virgo. We're still in Mercury retrograde until the 28th of August (Wednesday). Things are going to feel a little weird this week, and spacey, as we will have Venus opposite Neptune for most of the week.

Intuition might be heightened, dreams might be weird, we might also be feeling a little sleepy, spacey, head in the clouds type energy. Having grounding practices, like meditation, yoga, putting your feet in the grass, are really going to help on Tuesday. We have the Moon in Gemini moving over Jupiter and Mars, adding to any mental chatter that has been a theme over the last couple of weeks and really this whole month, like what in your life are you reassessing and how is there a lot of mental chatter around that?

The lesson with all of this is just to roll with the changes as they come. We're really transitioning into a flow state collectively. We can no longer plan like we used to, and we really just have to roll with the changes as they come. 

On Wednesday, we'll have the Moon moving into Cancer. Venus and Neptune will be exactly opposite each other. This is the peak of this transit. We also have Mercury going direct on Wednesday evening. We will get clarity around a lot of things on Wednesday and Thursday, but we still might not feel like it's time to act because Mars is in a challenging aspect with Neptune. So there's still this fogginess around how to act or what to do with the clarity we've received.

On Thursday, Venus will move into Libra and the Moon and Cancer will be in a harmonious aspect with Saturn and Pisces. This is going to put our emotional focus on, okay, how am I building my dream but also taking care of myself. So in what relationships in my life are supporting that versus what relationships are not supporting it and draining me from it.

On Friday, we have the Moon moving into Leo and it will be opposite Pluto in Aquarius. Expect some emotional shift and transformation, maybe even related to what came up for you with that Full Moon in Aquarius we had, because this is going to be in the same areas of life, your Houses that the Full Moon was in. 

As Mercury is moving forward again, it will be in a harmonious aspect with Chiron in Aries. So this might bring up a lot of healing conversations or taking actions, speaking our needs to people and that healing us. Realizing, "Oh, when I actually do the thing and get out of my head about it, it's not so bad. It's the mental chatter that makes it worse than it actually is. But when I take action on it, it's not so bad." 

That will heal you and reaffirm that all you need to do to get out of your head and heal is take action in the opposite way that your wounds would have you do.

This week feels pretty chill compared to the other weeks in August that we've had. This week is really about wrapping things up, gaining clarity, acting on that clarity, resolving things, and moving forward. 

As the Moon is moving through Leo all weekend, taking us into September on Sunday, the emotional mood and focus will be on, "Okay, how can I embrace my joyful, playful nature through all of the changes that I'm learning to flow with?"
