This Week in Astrology

It is Wednesday which is of course halfway through the week but when a week begins with a total eclipse of the sun it is hard to keep everything on the radar.   With that in mind, here's the bleeps for your radar screen. 

Leo New Moon

28 Leo 52  

August 21, 2017

2:30pm EDT

New moon: Plant seeds, make calls, activate, start projects.   Activate something that will ideally lead you to more.  This is the phase where INTENT is critical.  Even if the results are not immediate, the intent is there.  You may not have all the answers or road map but you should put out your Intent.  You can read about NEW MOON here. 

This focus:  Where are your passions?  What makes you feel alive?  How can you plant seeds that speak to your heart, your creativity, your dramatic and daring nature?    How can you put the shy wall flower away for awhile?   Perhaps that is not serving you.   Where do you need to be bold?  And what is YOUR truth.   Find it. 

Special focus

8/22: Mars trine Saturn:  Actions with structures build something strong

8/22: Sun enter Virgo

8/24: Venus square Uranus.  Love and values get an electric shock.  Disruptions in money and love. 

Crescent Moon Phase

August 25, 4:56am EDT

Focus on: What are you learning about partnership?  What are you learning about relationships? What are you learning about balance?  What are you learning about negotiating?   What are you learning about fairness? 

Special focus:
