Lunations and Long-term Aspects The long-term aspect to keep in mind for quite a while is that square between Pluto and Uranus. This is likely to stir up all sorts of events that could get nasty in the mundane picture at least. Pluto in Capricorn is all about power grabs and exposing government and corporate corruption while Uranus in Aries is the ultimate rebel and breaking free from oppressive conventionalities. Just taking a quick look at the state of the world these days provides quite a target-rich environment for this to manifest as more and more people say "enough is enough" to the powers that be. On the personal side, this aspect isn't quite as threatening, at least as far as your natal Sun is concerned. Uranus is in your 2nd house of income, finances, possessions, needs and pleasures which can, admittedly, bring some upsets to that part of your life. However, not all surprises or unexpected events are unfortunate, so hopefully this will not be too harmful. Pluto is in your 11th house of groups, goals, friends, and networking and could bring a powerful ally your way to help you accomplish one of your hopes or wishes. This month if your birthday is right around February 28 these effects will be more noticeable. This month begins and ends with a Full Moon, though the effects of the second one are most likely to show up in September. The Full Moon on August 1 is in nextdoor neighboring sign, Aquarius, your 12th house of spirituality, inspiration, dreams, enlightenment, seclusion, confinement, hidden enemies and self-undoing. This is the house Pisces rules zodiacally and thus an important venue for you. This is essentially where you live, in a world invisible to most others. A Full Moon indicates an ending, culmination or shift to a new phase so see what occurs in this part of your life. Also consider that the Sun is in Leo, throwing his light in your 6th house of work, health, service and pets. Given that the Full Moon constitutes teamwork between these two luminaries, the Sun is likely to highlight something that reflects back into your 12th house. For example, you may realize that the job you're currently in doesn't suit you at all or you may experience something at work that has an enlightening effect. Conversely, you may realized how trapped you feel, driving you to seek another way to make a living. There's a yod associated with this lunation which features Pluto at the eye, over in your house of groups and goals as noted earlier, and the base comprised of Jupiter in Gemini and the Sun in Leo. If your birthday is right around March 1 you may encounter a challenge or two getting things off the ground, but they are likely to be well worth it. Jupiter is in your 4th house of home environment, memories and endings/new beginnings, indicating an expansion of some description which will be linked with something related to your work, service, health or, possibly, your pets. This suggests the possibility of a new position. Mercury is retrograde in your 6th house of work which indicates a time to rethink, re-place, or reconsider something in that part of your life, hinting at the fact you've been thinking about this part of your life already and anything that needs to change. You are already intuitive by nature but the quincunx between Mercury and your sign ruler, Neptune, will further help you to gather the insights you need to change directions. Saturn and Mars are in your 8th house of transformations, debt, shared resources, sex, death and rebirth which places two malefic planets is a rather ominous house. These two will also be tugging you in a new direction. Mars is all about taking action, but is in debility in Libra where he must consider others before he can do anything, which can be frustrating. Saturn in Libra is exalted and thus functions at a high and usually more positive level, plus he is being trined by Venus, imbuing more positive energy. This suggests that discipline and hard work can be your best friend right now as far as starting a new endeavor. The New Moon on August 17 is in Leo, your 6th house of work. This points toward something new in this area as well. There will be numerous opportunities in this area which will start to become more clear now that Mercury is no longer retrograde. Mars and Saturn are supporting something new as well which will also have a transformational effect. Venus is now in fellow water sign, Cancer, your 5th house of creativity, children, romance, entertainment and speculation, bringing her blessings to this part of your life. You may be tempted to spend too much money impulsively on these things, however, so make sure you don't do something you'll regret later, such as booking that flight to Maui. However, those ideas you've been nurturing with regard to your work or job could bear unexpected benefits at this time. Just don't count your chicks before they're hatched. The second Full Moon on August 31 is in your sign and right on your natal Sun if your birthday is right around February 28. The Sun is currently in Virgo, your polar sign and 7th house of close relationships. Thus, someone close to you may provide the insights you need to determine what you need emotionally or otherwise. Inspiration and insights with regard to you view on life including your beliefs and expectations, are your allies at this time. These, in turn, can serve to transform your goals in a fortuitous way. There is another yod with this lunation as well with the eye on Uranus, planet of surprises, in your 2nd house of income and possessions. Taking action on your beliefs or some other 9th house matter such as higher learning, a legal matter, religion, politics, long-distance travel or a relocation, which comes about as the result of a close relationship, could be what you need to bring that much-needed windfall. As a mutable sign you should do well with change but you may still encounter an obstacle or some internal resistance to the necessary changes. Just remember if you keep on doing what you've always done, you'll keep on getting what you've always got. |
