Today's astrology Forecast | Wednesday, August 11th, 2021 - pushed off the fence, being practical and digging into the details, what is your next solid step? use the void to rest


 

 

The Moon continues her monthly journey through organized/service-oriented Virgo. She opposes a retrograde Neptune at 3:15AM EDT, meets Venus at 6:15AM EDT and goes void off a trine to a retrograde Pluto at 7:21AM EDT. She will be void until 4:08PM EDT when she moves into Libra.

 

The Moon's conjunction with Venus and trine to Pluto echoes Venus's (our money) trine to Pluto (their money) today - this is Virgo, so be practical/pay attention to the details

 

Small fixes - financial, relationship, self-esteem will pay off over time.


This is also the day Mars squares the Nodes of Fate. 

 

Tension/frustration. We can't move/will feel the squeeze until we make a decision/have a plan/speak up. 

 

Keep in mind that North Node in Gemini is now answering to a newly practical Mercury (he comes home to Virgo today, which I wrote about rather long-windedly(?) HERE ). The South Node - our entrenched beliefs, hopes that haven't materialized, the big foggy picture - is what we are moving AWAY from. We are headed toward something smaller/more local. We are asking new questions, making new choices.


Maybe we hear something and we need to ACT on it. Now. This is NOT about jumping and the net will appear (that's the South Node!). This is about small, practical steps. Check into something that interests you. Talk it out. Think it out. Work it out. What is your next solid step? Mars squaring the Nodes says we are at a crossroad and need to make a move/swerve around an obstacle/get off the fence and we will be STUCK UNTIL WE DO.


Yesterday's Mercury/Jupiter - BIG NEWS - opposition brought news here in the U.S. that the Senate has passed a trillion dollar infrastructure bill. There has likely been some news in your own life, too. Today Mercury, on his/her way out of Leo, will cross Donald Trump's ascendant, so I would expect some news about him, too. 


Keep in mind the long void Moon today and avoid it for starts when you need 'something to come of it'. Expect wonk that comes up during the void to blow over.
