Friday, AUGUST 23

The Sun enters Virgo this morning and will transit the Mutable Earth sign until September 23rd. Our focus shifts to the pieces of the puzzle–the details of our lives. It’s now time to take care of practical concerns. Attending to the details of daily living can free us from the unnecessary stress that results from “collecting” odds and ends of unfinished business. It’s an ideal cycle in which to get organized, to do detail work, and to improve connections and communications on the job. Rediscovering the joy of our work, services, chores, and routines can be in focus in the month ahead.

The Moon ends its transit of Taurus at 10:34 AM EDT when it enters Gemini. Shortly after that, the Last Quarter Moon occurs with the Sun in very early Virgo in a square aspect to the Moon in very early Gemini. There can be new awareness now, and in the week ahead, we begin sorting out what works and what doesn’t work in our lives. This process is in preparation for next week’s New Moon when something new is born once again. It’s not the best time to start a major project, as the decreasing light of the Moon symbolizes descent into unconsciousness. It’s time to begin finishing up the details of that which we conceived at the last New Moon. The Gemini Moon is interested, curious, and adaptable.

The Moon continues its void period until it enters Gemini today at 10:34 AM EDT.

Sun is in Virgo from August 23-September 23, 2019. Our focus shifts to the pieces of the puzzle–the little details of our lives. It is now time to take care of practical concerns. Tending to the details of everyday life may not sound like loads of fun, but it can certainly free us from unnecessary stress that results from “collecting” odds and ends of unfinished business. This is an ideal time to get organized, to do detail work, and to improve communications on the job.

Saturday, AUGUST 24

Venus aligns with Mars in the sign of Virgo today, heightening our feelings, which can feel pressing now. This transit generates warm, expressive, and lively energy. It can motivate us to do something creative or artistic. In some cases, this impulsive energy produces “love at first sight” scenarios. Venus is diplomatic, gentle, romantic, and sensitive, while Mars is more direct, confrontational, and assertive. Venus can act to soften Mars’ aggressiveness, or Mars can make Venus’ romantic impulses more forceful and pressing. Some level of competition is present in our interactions. While it’s likely of a pleasurably challenging kind, it’s not out of the question that it can be disruptive. We can be impulsive regarding our relationships, pleasure, or money. We may be bringing more creativity to the work we do or to the services we provide, or we’re seeking a new challenge.

A Mercury-Pluto quincunx also active today suggests difficulties digesting or accepting a matter, however. It can be challenging arriving at a conclusion without feeling like we’re missing out elsewhere. We might have a hard time getting our message across or coming to a decision/conclusion that feels right, or we trigger negative responses from others. The Moon spends the day in the sign of busy, curious Gemini.

Sunday, AUGUST 25

Venus and Mars have just formed a conjunction, and now both bodies form a quincunx to Chiron. We may have a hard time cozying up to a person or project without feeling a little out of step. We’re commitment-shy just for the time being, or we might doubt the effectiveness of our efforts to go after what we want. These things can lead to passive-aggressive behavior, defensiveness, or frustration. Indecision now is temporary, and faltering a little may even be helpful if it helps us see where adjustments may be better for us. The Moon continues its transit of communicative Gemini until 5:05 PM EDT, after which it enters Cancer. We begin to crave more comfort, familiarity, and a sense of security.

The void Moon occurs from 2:58 AM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a sextile to Mercury), until the Moon enters Cancer at 5:05 PM EDT.

Mercury enters Virgo

Mercury is in Virgo from August 29-September 14, 2019. When Mercury is in Virgo, precision in speech, thought, and process is now important to us. This is a time when we analyze and decide what is useful and what we deem to be impractical. Mercury feels right at home in Virgo, one of the signs that it rules. Dealing with details is natural and easy now. We need to be careful that we don’t lose perspective if we find ourselves lost in details. We should also be aware of the possibility of expressing ourselves in a too factual manner, so much so that we come across as dry, critical, or unimaginative.

Mercury enters Libra

Mercury is in Libra from September 14-October 3, 2019. When Mercury is in Libra, we are diplomatic and friendly. During this cycle, we are able to bring a more rational approach to one-to-one relationships. It’s a good time to think about ways of improving our negotiation skills. In an attempt to see both sides of any given situation, Mercury in Libra can be a vacillating energy. It can be more challenging than usual to make quick decisions, as we can sit “on the fence”. We may too easily accommodate others’ opinions in order to keep the peace. In our negotiations, we don’t want to assert ourselves in such a way as to appear to be the “bad guy”. However, this is a good period for considering others’ points of view. We are more inclined to arrive at fair conclusions.

Venus enters Libra

Venus is in Libra from September 14-October 8 2019. We are more inclined to employ charm rather than aggressive behavior in order to get what we want during this cycle. Although Venus in Libra virtually lives for relationships, there is an air of cool detachment to this energy. We are very obliging with others–quite willing to negotiate and compromise. We can be especially idealistic about love. We prefer things be done the “right” way, and are turned off by aggressive or uncouth behavior. The shadow side of this position is dependency, inconsistency, and superficiality. In an attempt to avoid unpleasant situations, we could easily gloss over deeper issues at play in our relationships. It’s probably best to avoid the trap of acquiescing to our partners but privately resenting the fact or thinking ourselves martyrs for doing so! This is also a time when we are more artistically inclined. We tend to seek balance in our personal environment.
