This month of August, 2012, closes out with a Blue Full Moon on Friday, ending our work week with an emotional burst of energy! A proper end to a work week that will require a good amount of diplomacy! Monday, August 27, the Capricorn moon creates a sea saw of emotion, with what we are feeling, verses what others seem to be asking of us.The best way to cope, is to let others help you to know what really is important to you, and remember that pleasing everyone, all the time, is impossible! Tuesday, August 28, begins with our moods even more negative, as a moon Saturn square, greets us all, around 7:00 a.m. EDT. Extra caution as you make your way to work Tuesday morning, would be wise. And then guarding your temper is my best advice, for the rest of Tuesday. Wednesday, August 29, we should feel a lot better and freer. The moon in Aquarius lifts our spirit as in makes a very positive aspect to the lucky planet Jupiter! Good aspects like that can help us in many ways, as it gives us a more optimistic, and productive, attitude!!! Making Wednesday, my pick of the week, as best day of the week, to feel good and get your desired best accomplished. Thursday, August 30. Not as positive, from a moon Mercury pull. However, with extra care that you do not allow small annoyances to get the best of you, Thursday can be the day to solve, some of those serious hard to talk about issues... with your significant other, or boss. Best to get it done before the Full moon clouds your, clarity!!! Yes, Friday, August 31, 2012, does in deed have a blue moon. That extraordinary time that has a second full moon in the same month! And this particular one increases those sensitive blue moon feelings. So Try not to make any important decissions while your emotions are in such a state of flux. The full moon is not the only tug on your reasoning ability, accompanying the blue moon on Friday night, is a change in sign for the planet Mercury, as it enters the analytical earth sign of, Virgo. Mercury will be in Virgo until September 18, bringing us in touch with those more practical concerns, as we prepare for the season of Fall. But on Friday, this week we may have  difficulty concentrating on anything! It's the Moon, Sun, Mercury, and Neptune, that will make it almost impossible! Slow down, and drift...that way, you can just go with the flow, to make the most of what can be, a very confusing day. Saturday, Sept. 1st , 2012 reasoning ability returns, as the moon, and Venus helps us to regain inner wisdom, and see our loved ones more clearly! Enjoy . Sunday, Sept. 2, expect the unexpected! An Aries moon will increase our energy, and our impatience...but doing things on impulse can work against you, causing accidents, and arguments. Slow down and count to ten, is your best defense. You can use that newly found energy to clean out the clutter, but do it carefully, that way you are not throwing away something that isn't actually valuable?

Blame it on the Stars"!

This week, change is again in the Star brew! As two important astral happenings have their new influence on our lives.

First, the planet Mars, that rules our passions entering a more potent tenacious sign of Scorpio on Thursday, where it will provoke deep feelings and extreme actions for the next six weeks.

And second... the Sun, also on Thursday, beginning it's yearly cycle in analytical Virgo, that will be with us until Sept.23

All making Thursday a key day to start to notice change happening around our daily routines, that will be with us for awhile.

However, Monday August 20, some of those pending changes could be unpleasant ones, due to a negative moon, Uranus, Pluto aspect. A day to stay flexible, and cautious, slow down to avoid accidents and count to ten before you speak in hast, avoiding, arguments ,that can lead to break-ups and explosive behavior.

Tuesday, August 21, our, emotions are, colored negative, by a Moon Saturn conjunction. Try to be patient, and realize that hard work and time, are what it takes to overcome, those obstacles.

Wednesday, August 22, leads us to those changes. Finally we can now, see progress, where much of this summer has felt like we being held back.

 The planet Mercury is at last going past where it got hung up on July 15. And the moon, newly into Scorpio on Wednesday morning, paves the way toward our inner dreams...

making us want to start playing for keeps. Yes our Moon's presence in the mysterious sign of Scorpio, on Wednesday, and Thursday, can add depth, power and complexity to relationships.

But a more potent influence is added on Thursday, as assertive Mars, enters the pot!

Happening on Thursday, August,23.

What new direction will you be dealing with the next six weeks?

The early morning hours EDT on Thursday this week, look difficult. Communication and traffic snarls will be the norm. The day improves as it goes along.

Friday, August 24, waking up to confusion? The moon in Sagittarius in difficult aspect to Neptune, mixes up your mood, by deluding you into a disappointment. Give it up to

unselfishness, and prayer! And everything improves by Friday night!

Saturday, August 25, a morning moon, Mercury trine improves all our moods, and saves our weekend, fun! Enjoy!

What a nice change, to help us into Sunday, August 26 too!

Get out and about. The Sagittarius moon is inspiring!!!

The work week begins with us feeling more emotionally aware and, loving!!! Why? "You can blame it on the Stars"... Our Monday, August 13, Cancer moon, will co-join Venus, the planet of love! A nice way to start out our day. So if there is someone who's affection your hoping for, Monday's daylight hours is the part of day, to make your move. Also a helpful day & time for you, to play your intuition, and make those home decorating decisions. However, the EDT evening hours on Monday, things will not feel as clear! A Pluto moon opposition in difficult aspect to the freedom loving planet Uranus, brings surprise, where nothing can be steady, or guaranteed. Tuesday, August 14, our choices are also, not as clear! We might allow the impact of others...family, friends, and even strangers, to have too much influence on our day, worsening into the evening hours. Wednesday August 15, Careful!!! A negative beginning to our day, can get us into a downward spiral that you might find difficult, to recover from? Making you feel angry, and out of control. Slow down, guard yourself from unnecessary arguments, accidents, and break-ups. Thursday, August 16, the planet Venus...tangles with Uranus. Not an easy day to control, emotions!!! Yours, or, others! Be flexible, and try to stay open minded, to make your Thursday a good one! A waning moon also on Thursday, can be the a good time to rid yourself of an unwanted pest, or habit? Friday, August 17, one of the month's most, important! A new moon will be at the helm for our day, from it's conjunction to the Sun, at 11:55 EDT. Remember, it has been said that the time of a new moon, is the best time of the month, for New beginnings. What will yours be? Think about what you want to expand and grow, as the month does? Nice!!! Our new moon will also help our weekend activities to be expansive and fruitful. Saturday, August, 18, morning hours, EDT, a Virgo moon making, a favorable aspect to the planet, of transformation Pluto, can bring many new beginnings. A good day, to transform what you would like to have a new-start with. And a perfect day to solve a mystery or problem that up till now has alluded you? Sunday, August 19, your ingenuity kicks in! A Mercury, Uranus trine, all day on Sunday, can wind up your weekend on a high? So what is it that would put a big smile on your face on Sunday? Go ahead and make it happen, because it can!!!

A Monday, August 6, morning wake -up call...sets things in motion, to bring a jarring start to our work week.

Best to be flexible and aware, to cope from the Aries moon in difficult aspect to the Planet of endings Pluto, happening at, around 8:00 a.m. EDT. but influencing all our morning hours.

However, things can smooth out nicely by evening from a moon, Sun trine aspect, helping us to end our day with smiles.

Tuesday, August 7... at 9:43 a.m. EDT the planet that rules our feelings, and finances enters, the water loving sign of, Cancer. This change in sign, for Venus, will turn our attention to more of what we desire in our home, and family relationships, until early September.

Also Tuesday, our feelings and general mood, is being pulled through our connection to others.

Check your reactions, to see if you are allowing others too much control in your life? That way, the see saw feeling that is part of your Tuesday this week, wont be so intense!

Wednesday, August 8, an important day! The day that the planet Mercury regains its normal direct forward motion. And bringing with it a more productive forward motion to many of us?

Although, it will take a few weeks. In fact, until the week of August 22, for us to notice it, and reap the benefits. But Wednesday's change for the planet Mercury, as it begins to move forward again, allows less indecision, and aggravating delays.

However, Wednesday's morning hours that will NOT be apparent. The Taurus moon on Wednesday morning is in very difficult aspect to this change in direction for Mercury. So slow down and exercise extra patience in all you are doing.

Thursday, August 9, best to be diplomatic! Especially when dealing with those in authority. Our egos might be a bit out of line, from a negative moon Sun aspect, that can influence all your days activities.

Friday, August 10, our thoughts in the morning hours will be about improving our securities.

The Taurus moon gets us started that way, but a Gemini moon on Friday night, in difficult aspect to Neptune, can make our thinking very unrealistic. Avoid overindulgence!

And that warning remains all day for Saturday August 11. Jupiter and the moon co-join on Saturday, to create some careless behavior. And a possible trend towards accidents, and fire!

On a positive note a Jupiter moon conjunction can put you in a positive fun mood too. So planning fun activities for your weekend will be easy! The good moods will go right into all day on Sunday.

In fact, Sunday, August 12, is my pick of the week as best day to feel good, and be productive. Enjoy, and think of ways to get out and be with friends!!!

Our work week begins with the month of July, 2012, closing out, on a more serious trend

So expect Your Monday July 30, to be dealing with some of your life's practical, concerns?

Just remember that the planet Mercury, is the one that rules decision, and it is still back tracking, in retrograde. And that means, those decisions, cannot be set in stone!

In other words, while making up your mind, you need to allow your self room to change your mind? Best to wait until after August. 8, if those important contacts and legal documents need to be signed.

Also Monday's daylight hours, EDT can be disruptively, difficult. A moon Pluto, conjunction, late afternoon, around 4:00 PM, can be explosive! Especially if you are trying to keep everything status quo! So keep clam cool, and flexible. As they say..."go with the flow"

In any case, your Monday this week, is best used towards looking at what needs to be looked at for future decisions. As you allow Monday's serious Capricorn moon, to help you to attend to any neglected responsibilities.

That advice stands for Tuesday, July 31, the last day of the month too. In fact on Tuesday morning this week, you are likely to begin your day with your worries, concerns, and responsibilities, on your mind?

Why? Because the ruler of the Capricorn moon Tuesday morning, Saturn, will be in conflict as it squares the moon, thru out most of our daylight hours. Putting pressure on us emotionally, and bringing us into emotional sober picky moods. So slow down, try not to over react, as you allow those serious thoughts, to teach you something important about yourself.

Wednesday, the first day of August 2012... even with an impending full moon, can be like a breath of fresh air!

Our moon will enter the free mined sign of Aquarius at 5:56 a.m.. EDT, bringing needed relieve from all that serious thought. Nice.!!! But do not let that need for freedom pull you into something you will have to answer for latter. Expect a lively day, with others having their influence in how you see, & view it?

And then the Full Aquarius moon will rein Wednesday night...

at its fullest 11:28 PM EDT... giving lots of emotion, and desire for alliances and romance . A good night to spend with a loved one, or spouse?

Thursday, August 2, continues with a desire to connect with others to have, fun! And in fact, it is my pick of the week as best day, to feel good and be sociable.

Friday, August 3, moods become more withdrawn, and sensitive.

A Pisces moon, will start to dictate to, our intuitions. As it starts out its monthly visit in the sign of intuition, Pisces, at 9:28 a.m. EDT on Friday.

And yes, that can put a damper on your Friday activities, if you let your feelings get hurt, by a too fragile ego. Remember listen to your inner self. It is the voice of intuition, that can be helpful on Friday.

Saturday, the same is true! Pisces moon will still be at the the helm. Doing nice things for others will help you, to feel useful, and productive. Lightening Intuition knowing who might benefit from can play a role, towards making Saturday a good one after all.

But unfortunately, on Sunday, August 5, the aspect that the still Pisces moon, will be making to our love planet, Venus, is a difficult one! And that can mean discord with those we love? How to cope?

Try not, to be overly sensitive, and guard those unrealistic expectations! A sudden desire of yours, to go over board, on Sunday, could be responsible for unnecessary discord. Take a step back, and wait. Emotions change over night

Monday, July 23, the sun newly into Leo...(the sign that loves fun) we have little patience for any aggravations!

However, the reigning Virgo moon, especially in the morning hours, seems to want to point them all out. Causing, delays, and snarled communication.

Hang in there, the day gets better as it goes along, with Monday's evening hours, being more active, and productive, coming from the moon's change into loving Libra, at 6:38 p.m. EDT Try to make the most of that, calmer productive time, because by Tuesday, morning it is likely to be, just the opposite!

Yes, whatever you have to do on Tuesday, morning July 24, it better be flexible!

Early morning looks practically difficult! All from a moon Mars conjunction in

opposition, to the planet of the unexpected Uranus.

And intensifying, even more difficult morning hours...on Tuesday,

includes that same moon aspect, as it also squares, the planet of endings, Pluto! An aspect that is so negative, that it can be explosive, and bring danger and upheaval.

Patience, and flexibility is your best defense.

Like Monday, the evening hours of Tuesday, are best!!

Wednesday, July, 25, I am happy to say that our stars smooth out some...

but leave us with a need to contemplate our futures!

A moon Saturn conjunction around noon EDT time, on Wednesday, sets that pace.

Work with it, as you pay extra attention to, those serious issues and responsibilities.

Thursday, July 26, try to guard your temper!

The moons change to Scorpio on Wednesday night, might have caused a bruised ego! That bruising, bringing Thursday's, difficulties... like arguments, and breakups

.

Friday, July 27, can be a day of reconciling, as we feel a need to reflect, our recent behaviors, and happenings. Spending a little tome alone to do that on Friday could be very helpful.

Saturday, July, 28...is my pick of the week, as best day to feel good, and be productive.

A fire Sagittarius moon harmonizes with our fun, Leo Sun! A great day to be with loved ones, also giving you lots of inspiration towards anything that you want to be successful with.

And that good mood, should continue into Sunday, July 29, The only problem being too many options, not knowing which one to pick. So plan a weekend that is filled with those you have the most fun with, and Enjoy!!!

Mars and Lucky Jupiter, create a desire to be expansive and busy, as our work week begins. But the Gemini moon, with Mercury's new retrograde direction, can bring double trouble!

 

Yes, it is likely that your Monday, June, 16, will planned out, to be a busy one? And with an added boost, from the planet Saturn, that likes the long haul, ambitious goals could be tempting you? Just be patient if you want to see real progress, because when Mercury is retrograde as it will be until August 8, many do overs, and changes will be the norm.

Tuesday, July 17, the added momentum of energy continues, along with some unexpected disruptions. Play your intuition, and stay flexible! Keeping your schedule as free as possible, can help your overall mood, as you get pulled into pressures from others.

Wednesday, July 18, a morning tangle between, the waning moon and Saturn, creates a what is best, verses what we want problem? A time when we try to measure up to some ideal. Patience! This waning moon, is a perfect time to put an end to a bad habit, or rid yourself of something that you were not successful doing in the past.

Thursday, July 19, just 24 minutes past midnight, Est, we will have a New moon!

Remember that is the time, when, what we put in motion what expands with the moon, in its first quarter. So it great time for new beginnings!

Any project that you would like to see an increase in? Like putting money in the bank, on Thursday, to be expanding your savings. Or meet that new love interest, or, put that new business plan into motion? Yes, Mercury retrograde will change the outcomes of your expansion, but that can work in your favor too!

Friday, July 20, a playful Leo moon gets you in the right frame of mind for a fun weekend! Making Friday my pick as the best, of the week, for feeling good, and getting things accomplished.

In fact that Leo moon, and its harmonizing aspects, started Thursday night, lasting into early Saturday morning. A great lift for all sun signs, but especially for those fire, and air signs. Leo, Sagittarius, Aries, Aquarius, Gemini, Libra?

Saturday, July 21, a Virgo moon midmorning, will quiet down our energy a bit, as we turn to activities that help to expand our wisdom and desire to serve. Helping, yourself and others to be more organized, makes your Saturday a good one!

,

Sunday, July 22, the Sun, enters the sign of Leo. A time of year when we want to be more in control, and proud of accomplishment!

The season of summer, usually fits that description, as we are more prone to be out and about, being noticed? Leo loves to shine, and it will be with us, doing that, until it enters Virgo, August 23.

Extra time to sleep in, on Sunday would be wise. An early morning square aspect to Jupiter makes you careless, and extravagant. Sunday's afternoon hours will be most favorable towards mental pursuits.

Where Sunday's evening hours Est, will also require extra caution, due to a Moon Venus square, that can bring problems with communication and travel.

Taking extra caution, helps you to enjoy your weekend time off!
