Monday, AUGUST 25

Mercury forms sesquiquadrates with both Saturn and Neptune today, and we might struggle with our expectations or perceptions of reality. It’s best to be cautious and avoid perceiving situations impractically or overly optimistically. Still, going to the other extreme, negativity, isn’t helpful either.

Fortunately, Venus harmonizes with Mars early today and Saturn late evening, after Venus enters Leo. We’re seeing relating patterns and using them positively to encourage creativity and excitement.

Venus enters Leo today, and it will visit the sign until September 19th. A warmhearted and generous energy characterizes this cycle. We take pride in love and are open-handed with our resources. It’s a time of expressiveness, pride, and a touch of extravagance.

We thrive on attention, acknowledgment, validation, and adoration, making a significant ego investment in our love lives during this period.

The Venus-in-Leo cycle can be a solid or profitable time for contests, lotteries, parties, recreation, drama, adornment, jewelry, costumes, art dealing, and all things golden. Generosity and warmth contribute to our ability to draw in the right resources. We can have a compelling desire to stand out, be remarkable, and feel special during this period.

However, we should watch for extravagance and overstating our feelings simply for the effect.

As the day advances, Venus forms a trine with Saturn, helping us sort out our feelings. We might demonstrate our affection through practical support, service, and shows of loyalty.

This influence reminds us of the value of constancy and reliability. We approach love, relationships, money, or pleasure-seeking more maturely, responsibly, and with a level head. It can also be a time when we enjoy our responsibilities, work, or duties more than usual.

The Moon is void from 9:54 AM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a sextile to Venus), until the Moon enters Libra at 10:08 AM EDT.
