Tip of the Week:
The Sun entered Virgo on August 22. Although summer still officially has a month to go, many tend to deem it to end along with August or at most by Labor Day. As it is, this coming week is eventful, astrologically.
Mercury comes to an apparent stop and then resumes forward motion on August 28 after a few weeks of retrograde motion.
On September 1st, Uranus will turn retrograde and Pluto will re-enter Capricorn for the last time.
With these reversals, we can expect the same in the outer world somehow. This is especially true on the larger stage. With Uranus and Pluto now forming a creative and inspiring Trine aspect (120 degrees) and both forming a social, intellectual, and awareness-oriented Sextile (60-degree aspect) to Neptune, there is an emphasis on spiritual awakening and seeing through the relative illusion of it all.
This refers to both the notion that existence itself is not as solid as it appears, and to the antics of propaganda, to use illusions to convince people of fabricated notions of reality. This process will figure strongly in the Age of Aquarius, and it has emerged to a significant level already, as with the technologies of modern moviemaking, CGI, and AI. While the entertainment prospects of this are wonderful, the social and political prospects are much more serious.
On more personal levels, Mercury resuming its forward motion will contribute to a feeling of greater flow, if within the context of Virgo which tends to activate a back-to-work mood. In this regard, the remaining weeks of summer can feel like a bonus for some, especially those living above the 40th parallel.
Have a great week!

Weekly Horoscope:
Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
A weave of work and play is the mood now. You would not be alone if you are experiencing the need to persevere in some critical areas requiring follow-through. This theme could also be described as a breakthrough, as in busting through both literally and figuratively with barriers in your mind and attitude.
Taurus (Apr 20 – May 20)
Virgo time harmonizes well with your sign. It invites a creative and playful approach. With Mars and Jupiter in Gemini, you could feel like a very busy bee, and a determined one too. Covering a lot of ground on a variety of fronts is your overall desire currently, but doing so has been intercepted, until now.
Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)
Virgo can be described as your ‘home’ sign. It is that factor that supports you to be practical and realistic, even strategically frugal to maintain a balance between your Gemini dreams and reality. Fortunately, Jupiter and Mars in your sign currently are a boost to your morale and energy levels.
Cancer (Jun 22 – Jul 22)
The influences of Virgo tend to produce busy cycles for you. While this is true for many of late due to Mars and Jupiter in Gemini, their influence on you could prove more internal than external. Positively, you will feel inspired and able to harness their influence to do some needed inner work to… refine your mind.
Leo (Jul 23 – Aug 23)
Aligning with the practical focus of Virgo comes quite naturally to you. Your sign can be described as the ‘practical fire sign’. Pushing through inner and outer restrictions is part of the plot currently. Fortunately, with Mercury in your sign, you could feel even more creative than usual. Tune in to make the most of it.
Virgo (Aug 24 – Sep 22)
When the Sun enters your own sign, the tendency is to feel energized with pioneering determination. However, if you are born later in the sign, this feeling can prove delayed. In fact, you could feel more inclined to retreat. If so, use this time to plan and recharge, and trust the flow.
Libra (Sep 23 – Oct 22)
Although the Virgo cycle is not known to be a strong one for you, other factors are compensating, in fact probably very well. An adventurous impulse lingers, perhaps finding you away from familiar territory and enjoying the stimulation of new energies, places, and people. This trend will continue so stretch into it.
Scorpio (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
Aligning with a fuller sense of your individuality comes supported by an impulse to be more independent is in focus. Yet, you may feel that you have arrived at something of a crossroads. It could even be described as a soul-searching process, even a dark night. A firm grip on practical reality will guide you well.
Sagittarius (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
Virgo is the sign that closely aligns with your public and professional life. It can be understood as a civilizing factor that helps you keep the wild impulses of the centaur from galloping away into the wilderness forever more. Besides, the marketplace offers more… stuff, easier than you can obtain out there.
Capricorn (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
Virgo time will likely feel like a fresh breath of air. Yet, with Mercury still retrograde and in Leo, you are not out of the murky waters, yet. As helpful as the Mars/Jupiter combo in Gemini is for many, it is pushing you to work harder, both literally and on having faith that the world is not coming to an end.
Aquarius (Jan 20 – Feb 19)
Virgo time can prove transformational for you. Positively, the process can include purging, clearing, and cleansing, leaving you feeling lighter and renewed. The key is to cooperate with the rhythmic flow. Mars and Jupiter in Gemini should be synchronizing with a more animated and playful mood of late that continues…
Pisces (Feb 20 – Mar 20)
Fresh stimulations on relationship fronts will keep you busy for the next several weeks. In fact, the overall dynamic will both increase and deepen. Thanks to your confidence levels steadily rising, your engagements will likely prove stimulating and satisfying overall, if a bit edgy at times.
