We are between Eclipses, traveling through the Wormhole into a new reality. This is beyond what the mind can grasp and you may feel unmoored, wondering what is happening, or you may be on a stimulating new trajectory. Familiar reference points are ever-changing, while higher frequencies continue to activate shifts in perception that reorient you day after day. This is how life is meant to unfold now.
Toxic habits can lose their magnetic grip as powerful transpersonal energies create new energetic grids that allow you to uplevel. This can be exciting, if you’re ready and willing to embrace a new You with faith and optimism. All the while, the noise of the old structures is rising to a crescendo, as they will not be sustainable for the long term.
Attune to your Inner Guidance for direction and know that we are in a great mystery as we witness and co-create the emergence of the New Earth. Don’t try to figure it out, but rather, feel where you belong in each moment — the people, places and things that are calling you forward now, who inspire you. Don’t go on autopilot, back to where you came from.
Aug 15 – Mercury conjunct Jupiter in Leo
You may have a message to share publicly or something to say personally to another. This inspires bold, visionary ideas, conversations, plans and possibilities spoken with confidence and optimism. Allow yourself to be heard and state your convictions with conviction.
Mercury-Jupiter in Leo creates leadership energy — BIG, dynamic ideas with vision, certainty and enthusiasm that can bring others along. Be sure you are aligned with whatever you’re promoting, whether a product or an opinion, to be in integrity.
This is a great day to make a sale, pitch, speech, or podcast, for writing, brainstorming, storytelling and for inspiring others. Don’t hold back if you’ve got ideas and something to say. This is your day!
Aug 17 – Mars square Neptune, Mercury trine Saturn, Venus sextile Jupiter
These three aspects all happen within six hours of each other — the second two less than an hour apart. I’ll break them down but know that there are endless possibilities for how this can be experienced and expressed, which likely depends on your personal chart and circumstances.
Mars square Neptune
Mars-Neptune invites you to operate intuitively via Wu Wei by aligning with the natural world and flowing around obstacles. It’s not just going with the flow, which implies passivity, Wu Wei is aligning with your intuition and attuning to your environment regarding right action. No pushing, no conflict, no manipulation to get what you want. Align. Be in harmony with your surroundings.
It is a profound way to live and that’s the best use I know of for Mars-Neptune, along with creative and spiritual activities, dreams and rest. You may just feel like you need to go slowly and chill. With Mars in emotional Cancer, you may be feeling extra protective and need to cocoon in your nest, especially with a Neptune square that heightens sensitivity. Be gentle with yourself.
If you push to get what you think you need/want, you may end up in the wrong places, having miscalculated.
Mercury trine Saturn
Organize your inspired ideas to create strategic plans and structures. This is grounding energy that can bring your visions down to earth in practical ways. Recognizing what is real and what won’t fly is the discernment of Saturn, where less is more when focusing on the long game. Commitment and discipline will support your efforts to build something that will be worth it in the years to come. You may have to say “No” to something now in for the good of the project or goal that comes later.
Venus sextile Jupiter
Blessings arrive in various forms via opportunities, connections, appreciation, attention, gifts, $$ and things that fill your heart, rather than just cash and prizes. It can also be an uplifting flow of love, pleasure and generosity — joys that make life sweeter. My guidance: be generous of spirit and be open to receiving.
Don’t block your blessings by being too self-sufficient and closed off to others who want to give to you. Your job when receiving? Say, “Thank you,” and mean it. And really enjoy. 🩵
Aug 21 – Venus opposes Saturn
This can test relationships, partnerships and alliances activating boundary issues and more as dynamics change in relation to personal growth. Venus represents how you value yourself and love others, receive pleasure and the level of appreciation you expect and desire. Saturn can trigger fears and insecurities regarding worthiness that impact how you relate to others and it’s easy to betray yourself (a pattern) if there’s something unhealed that needs attention. This could be your cue.
This energy can bring up issues, which is an opportunity to renegotiate relationships that are out of balance or to end unsatisfying connections. This may be a make it or break it day when things come to a head. Remember, to thine own Self be true; value yourself enough to expect respect, honoring and care. Please.
This is the final week of Leo and we have that in-between feeling before the Lunar Eclipse on Aug 28. You are being transported to a new reality within your own consciousness, and the more you detach from 3D drama and connect with your soul’s guidance, the better.
Decide that all is well and make the most of what’s in front of you. Take extra good care of yourself as the body has to keep acclimating to rising frequencies and find your people and tribes.
Attune to your Higher Self. Your Inner Voice. Watch for signs and messages. Life can change in a heartbeat and opportunities abound.
Embody an Awakened Heart: open, available and guided by love rather than fear.
Value your Self and your connection to All That Is, giving and receiving love joyfully, trusting your intuition and discernment, and living in truth with compassion and courage.
As always, I am grateful for your presence on our journey together.
