A Last Quarter Phase Moon occurs in Taurus on Wednesday, August 5th. Business and financial concerns may require skill in co-creating solutions involving others as Venus enters Libra on Thursday, August 6th. Our ability to cultivate good will and lovingly express our true intentions and desires will be tested as Mercury enters Leo on Sunday, August 9th and Mars enters Cancer on Tuesday, August 11th.
The culmination of our efforts to creatively express our heart’s desire continues as a New Moon/Solar Eclipse occurs in Leo on Wednesday, August 12th.
A First Quarter Phase Moon occurs in Scorpio on Wednesday, August 19th. Our emotional ability to let go of control and be willing to be honest, open and vulnerable is likely to grow our experience of trust and compassion from others.
