Astrology Forecast for Creatives | Week of August 26, 2019 - change is good, new ways to make money, new love, changing the conversation, sudden insights, new solutions, something stabilizes, a new way forward
Sunday, August 25, 2019Here's some of the aspects for the week ahead:
MONDAY - Venus trines Uranus
WEDNESDAY - Mars trines Uranus
THURSDAY - Mercury into Virgo (now ALL the personal planets are in Virgo), Sun trines Uranus
FRIDAY - New Moon in Virgo (6 degrees)
SUNDAY - Mercury trines Uranus, Venus trines Saturn
Look at all those trines (brakes off) - something has to fall into place for everyone this week!
MONDAY and WEDNESDAY (in play all week really) we have Venus (our love, money, resources, values, self-esteem, women) and Mars (action, passion, what we do to get what we want, initiative, anger, men) moving very closely together through practical and grounded Virgo now trining (brakes off) change-maker Uranus (in Taurus, so answering to Venus).
CHANGE is the buzzword this week, and it's the kind of change that moves us step-by-step toward something BETTER.
This isn't the tornado that lands us on our ass in a field somewhere. Promise.
It's the time to try something NEW. We are attracted to unusual people and things now. Our values are changing. We want different things. We have the courage to try new things.
Get out and meet new people. Moves with money could pay off now. Action will lead to liberation.
Improved health, advancements with our work, with our daily activities, our pets - all of this is possible - it will take action and movement on our part though, we don't want to be idle this week, unless this idleness is within some healthy space of "taking care of ourselves", since Virgo rules our health - trines ALLOW things to happen and with Uranus this active now, change is good!
It could also be a bit anxiety-producing as Virgo increases the pressure to do things "right". If you feel a tension build-up TAKE A BREAK. There is nothing perfect about perfect. Ask for help if you need it.
What are the themes of your 6 degree Virgo and Taurus houses? How can they work together now? What can you do to get the most from these energies?
On THURSDAY - now the Sun trines Uranus - this is POSITIVE CHANGE. A light is thrown on something different. Innovation. Time to take advantage of unusual/unique opportunities. Try something else. Uranus starts a new cycle with the Sun - start something different!
Mercury (communication, thinking, ideas, local neighborhood, siblings, transportation) joins the other inner planets in Virgo. She/he is quite happy to be back in Virgo - a sign he rules.
In Virgo, our thinking, writing and communication will be more practical and commonsense. We will be all about the details. Nothing gets by Mercury in Virgo. But lots of things get dismissed. If it's not real, if it doesn't work - it's gone.
This is an excellent transit (Mercury will be in Virgo until September 14th) for organization, cleaning, paperwork, working on the tedious trivia we have overlooked during Mercury's days in star-studded Leo.
The curtain gets drawn, the crowds go home, the star of the stage (us!) hones his craft without an audience, without applause. This is the work that gets done right because it needs to be done right. This is also excellent service energy - for taking care of our health, for taking care of other people, for taking care of our animals.
The Virgo house in your natal chart gets a visit from active Mercury - this is where the solutions will be. This is where we can drill down the details and become more efficient.
This is where we will be walking our talk.
The shadow side of Mercury during this transit is that we can't always see the forest for the trees. We might get so caught up in the details the big picture gets away from us. We could forget/lose sight of why we are doing the thing we are doing in the first place. Or we get so caught up in something being so perfect, that it never gets finished. Or maybe we pare something down so much that in the end we end up with nothing .... keep an eye (yes, we need three eyes now!) out for this stuff.
On FRIDAY we have a super-powerful New Moon in Virgo that encompasses all these energies and propels us through the next two weeks as the inner planets move through some powerful and supportive trines to Saturn and Pluto. I am loving this Moon. Expect a post!
On SUNDAY - Mercury trines Uranus - yes he/she is that quick! New ideas. Fast thinking. Shocking, unexpected news. Sudden insights. Maybe our siblings surprise us. Our words (and the words of other people) can be erratic, unexpected and spontaneous. Our brains and tongues will be restless.
The information we need or our next great idea could literally drop right into our lap.
AND THEN we have to do SOMETHING WITH IT. Remember this is Virgo, we don't have to do some huge something with it. We get to the huge something by working the step-by-step process.
New solutions come in now. To get the most out of this transit - talk to different people. Change the conversation.
On the same day, Venus trines Saturn. Here is our money/love/resources getting stabilized. Maybe the work we have previously done pays off now. Good for dealing with authority. Investing for the long-haul. Here is where facing reality pays off.
We could make a commitment (Saturn) within a relationship (Venus) now. We could make a commitment with our money. We could make a commitment to valuing ourselves. We could commit to the hard work of being more beautiful (ie Venusian) or birthing something beautiful. We could beautify (Venus) our career (Saturn). This would be a great time for cosmetic changes within a business. Spruce ups now will pay off over time.
What a week!
We will flesh the whole thing out daily when we factor in the Moons, which other than some challenges on Tuesday (with authority/limits, etc) and Friday (with escape or rose-colored glasses), look pretty good, too.
This week is a HUGE kick off to what will be a very productive Virgo season. Don't let it stress you out - change is good and we are easing into it!
