“I just listened to my past reading again. I love how readings never grow outdated. There is always something more on each listening.” ~ Jo
Tip of the Week:
Mercury in its retrograde process re-entering Leo, and Mars conjunct Jupiter in Gemini, (an event that only occurs about every 27 months, and much more seldomly in the same sign), and while both aspects occur in the context of the Moon waxing to Full (culminating to exact on August 19) are in the spotlight this week.
Because the Moon will be a so-called “Super Moon”, meaning since it occurs while the Moon is at its ‘perigee’ or closest point to Earth in its elliptical orbit, it will appear to a much larger in the sky. Aside from the awe-inspiring spectacle, the actual impact subject to the gravitational pull of the Moon is less certain. So, it will be for you to determine if it is stronger or not.
It will be a Full Moon in Aquarius, an air element sign in which the influence is generally understood to be less dramatic, compared to when the Moon is Full in fire and water element signs.
However, since both the Sun and Moon will be forming exact square aspects to Uranus in Taurus on the same day (August 19), which technically indicates a T-square aspect pattern with Uranus at the apex point, we can and are wise to ‘expect the unexpected’.
Direct your attention to observing the synchronicities of erratic, chaotic, rebellious moods, attitudes, and events.
And as always, have a great week!

Weekly Horoscope:
Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
Although summer technically ends at equinox, it may feel like it is winding down quickly now and if you are going to get in a few last licks, you better get them in now. The Full Moon will prove to shine a bright light on your friendship network, yet it could also ignite some unusual, even eccentric experiences.
Taurus (Apr 20 – May 20)
Directing some of your abundant creative energy of late to your ‘home’ could include that place where your heart is literally, in your body. In other words, self-care or inner work may feel more necessary than usual. Otherwise, you may simply achieve inner healing as you complete outer repairs.
Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)
This waxing Full Moon will inspire opportunities to engage in creative expressions and surprise adventures shared with friends. This delightful window of quality time could coincide with inner rumblings that are somewhat difficult to decipher. Focus more on intuitions supporting original expressions than on analysis.
Cancer (Jun 22 – Jul 22)
Life is all about making choices based on priorities. While seemingly obvious, this process can prove challenging. This may be especially true now as circumstances are guiding you to dive deeper than usual to access hidden reserves of faith. Positively, the act of discernment involved can be understood as a spiritual process.
Leo (Jul 23 – Aug 23)
Venturing beyond familiar territory to pioneer and explore continues. While Mercury Retrograde in Leo can prove quite complex, for some more than others, for you it could prove to increase your focus. This constitutes a good time to get a lot done. Meanwhile, the Full Moon will stimulate your social life.
Virgo (Aug 24 – Sep 22)
An internal draw continues. Yet, this orientation will shift when the Sun enters your sign later next week. Also, an assertive push in your public and professional life may be preventing you from retreating altogether. Still, you are wise to lay low this week and recharge. Ironically, a bit of creative clean-up could prove uplifting.
Libra (Sep 23 – Oct 22)
Identifying with and expressing your self of individuality has been and continues as a central theme. Yet the terrain features some complexities such as venturing out to explore new horizons on one hand, while seeking peace and quietude to also attend to some needed healing and recuperation, on the other.
Scorpio (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
Shining your light for the world to see involves harnessing your imagination more fully. Part of the challenge is overcoming the impulse to introversion that you so naturally feel and yearn to enter more fully. Finding the sweet spot is where creative thinking comes to the fore, lest you get lost in the labyrinth of the mind.
Sagittarius (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
An expansive and perhaps bold and assertive drive to increase your outreach is underway. You may still be in the visionary stage, yet you will progress steadily to establish a solid foundation somehow that perpetuates this process. A cornerstone of the task is to identify what you feel makes you unique and special.
Capricorn (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
A rather complex cycle that began a few weeks ago, entered a deeper phase about a week ago. Positively, a variety of cultural interests and orientations have been serving to counter what could have been a dark night. Now, the solution is to direct your focus to what must be done beyond what is simply desired.
Aquarius (Jan 20 – Feb 19)
One way or another, your world is opening to include more variety and diversity. At worst, you are more challenged to focus, while at best this shift has sparked a whole new spectrum of inspiration. Destined new beginnings are part of the plot and some of these may have come about quite by surprise.
Pisces (Feb 20 – Mar 20)
Creating your world and your daily routine and rhythm differently continues. This process includes digging deeper to access core levels of insight and awareness. Alternately, the emphasis may be on actual outer realities requiring maintenance, cleaning, or renovation altogether. This cycle will continue so chip chop.
