Saturday, AUGUST 15

Mercury aligns with Jupiter today, boosting our capacity to process and share information. This transit increases our understanding. It’s a time that emphasizes grand and bold self-expression. We can be quite exuberant, our curiosity is huge, and we’re thinking in big terms. A philosophy that uplifts can be in focus. We’re especially interested in languages and different cultures. Verbal expression flows smoothly now.

It can be an excellent time to come to agreements and resolutions. We see the big picture and are more likely to factor in what’s most meaningful to us. We’re inclined to talk and think about our dreams, ideas, interests, and connections, opening up and enjoying the process.

We should be cautious of overstating and promising more than we can fulfill, but it remains an excellent time to enjoy good humor and positive vibes. This transit inspires optimism–we’re finding reasons to feel hopeful. Our opinions are strong. It’s a good time to stretch our thinking to include new possibilities.

With a Sun-Pallas trine also in play, we can experience a stronger desire to seek out meaning or purpose and mental stimulation. We see important patterns, and we’re incredibly motivated to solve problems.

The Moon leaves Virgo at 10:21 AM EDT, ending a lengthy void period, and enters Libra. The Libra Moon is conciliatory, compromising, fair, and just. We seek balance, harmony, and equality with the Moon in this Cardinal Air sign.
