Weekly Horoscopes August 12 - August 18

Monday - August 12, 2019
After an intense weekend with Mercury entering Leo, Jupiter stationing direct, and Uranus stationing retrograde, this week begins with a somewhat grounding start. With the Waxing Gibbous Moon reigning high in ambitious Capricorn, many of us will feel a push to commit ourselves to completing a plan or self-actualization project.
On Monday, the Waxing Capricorn Moon will form a conjunction with both Pluto and Saturn retrograde in Capricorn. This aspect highlights an area of our life that is ready for more self-discipline, commitment, and long-term effort. As Capricorn has a hard time accepting and expressing its emotions, this could also point to a period of depression and low vibrational feelings. With the Capricorn moon also opposing the North Node in Cancer, our sense of emotional security and well being is tested. This influence encourages us to push through any insecurity and doubt; there is sunshine on the other side.

Tuesday - August 13, 2019
On Tuesday, the Moon in Capricorn will oppose Mercury in Leo. This aspect signifies a feeling of restriction in our ability to express our self-desire and passion. This may result in a power conflict at work or at home. If you are a parent or work with kids you may deal with defiance or more passive aggressive behaviors. It’s best to let things flow with a low current, even if you know you are in the right. If you do decide to engage in conflict, you may not get the result you seek, if anything you may cause more harm than good. Use this energy to practice silence as a mediator; everything that we think does not need to be said. Energy speaks louder than words.
On Tuesday, the void moon will also form a square to Uranus now retrograde in Taurus. This aspect gives a hard knock on the butt in any area that deals with how we spend our money or apply force to our goals. Personal commitment and strength is tested, but for those who persevere great results will be found. Pushing past our comfort zone always feels rigid at first, but when we learn to lean in and accept a new way of being great things happen. The moon’s sextile to Chiron Rx in Aries supports this energy to push through. An area of your personality that was once weak or timid is now gaining strength. Believe in your personal power -- you can do this!!
On Tuesday night, the Moon will enter Aquarius as it prepares for the Full Moon early Thursday morning. When the Moon is in Aquarius we are emotionally detached from what we feel and see, instead we think through the mind and look to the future for intellectual stimulation and innovation.

Wednesday - August 14, 2019
On Wednesday, the Aquarius moon will sextile Jupiter now direct in Sagittarius. This aspect influences our ability to put our knowledge, wisdom, and higher learning to good use. A learning, teaching, or mentorship/apprenticeship opportunity may suddenly fall into your lap. Do not pass this opportunity up no matter how insignificant it may seem. This may also come in the form of a conversation with an older or wiser woman. Embrace the wisdom that this wise sage brings.
On Wednesday, Venus who is finishing up her last days in fiery Leo forms a quincunx with Pluto retrograde in Capricorn. This subtle energy signifies a discomforting energy that is silently vibrating throughout our relationships, especially romantic ones. Women may be experiencing more sabotage/suppression energy from men or the matrix of patriarchy. However, this is also a time where women are learning to stand in their power and use their feminine essence to raise the vibration of the collective. If you have any underlying issues with a male figure or energy in your life do not hesitate to address it. Just make sure you do so with love and power, not anger and resentment.

Thursday - August 15, 2019
On Thursday morning, the Full Moon in Aquarius, also known as the Sturgeon Moon, Fruit Moon, Grain Moon, and Corn Moon will directly oppose the Sun in Leo. This illumination will highlight a physical manifestation from the previous Aquarius New Moon six months ago in February. Look back and analyze where you were then, what you were thinking, desiring, manifesting. Now come back to the present and be whole where you are.
During this period, many of us will be more inclined to gather with like minds in small personal crowds. We will have a deep desire to be surrounded by those we love, trust, and understand us from a unique soul view. Do not be afraid to step outside the box and express a more esoteric version of who you are. However, we should be mindful of any judgement expressed towards those who do not carry our same beliefs or lifestyle. If not expressed consciously this energy can heighten feelings of isolation and depletion. Lost souls should be mindful of their ability to drift and move into darker currents of energy. This is a cycle to connect and expand through the higher mind. Do not isolate yourself now.
The Aquarius Moon will oppose Venus and Mars in Leo. The influence of this aspect will contribute to a boiling point for most relationships, especially the one with ourselves. Instead of denying anything that holds you back from expressing your truth and sharing it with others, air it out, expose it, let it be known so that you can move forward. The only one holding you back is you.

Friday - August 16, 2019
On Friday, the waning Full Moon will continue on in Pisces until around noon Sunday. The Pisces moon will sextile Uranus Rx in Taurus, emphasizing that the resources that we seek and need can only be found in the eternal. It also suggests that we must intentionally work to ground and manifest through both the spiritual and the physical. In order for us to evolve as a species we cannot place favor towards one, true balance is found in the middle.
The Pisces Moon will also form a conjunction to Lilith in Pisces. This aspect reminds us that the source of our eternal power is infinite. When undeveloped Pisces is weak, vulnerable, and naive. When Pisces is developed it is creative, formless, and aligned. Lilith reminds us that in order to move into the world and command the paradise we are promised, we must first accept that we are a spirit living in a body, and this requires tension. We are being instructed not to run from turmoil, but instead to embrace it for all that is and will bring into our lives.
A square between Mercury in Leo and Uranus retrograde in Taurus signals a disconnect between what we want to do and what we know we should do. If your mind is telling you to go one way but your heart knows that it must not waver, do not waver. Remind yourself that you are the creator and master of your own destiny; even when we crave excitement and surprise we must stay the course. Jupiter’s quincunx to the North Node in Cancer intensifies this feeling and need for excitement, work through it.

Saturday - August 17, 2019
On Saturday, the Moon in Pisces will Sextile Saturn and Pluto retrograde in Capricorn. This aspect gives us the divine and emotional support (boost) we need to continue our physical and material pursuits and transformation. A recent decision or lifestyle change, lesson, and/or commitment is sprouting; continue watering your seeds.
The Pisces Moon will also form a conjunction to Neptune retrograde in Pisces. This aspect heightens any intuitive and soul downloads that are needed to take us to the next level. However, this energy is very very intense. Those who suffer from anxiety or are easily affected by shifting energies will feel this ascension more than others. Get outside in nature and ground if you feel imbalanced or knocked off your pedestal. As a word of forewarning, do not give in to whatever addictions or temptations are prompting you. This is your time to release them.
A Pisces Moon square to Jupiter in Sagittarius could symbolize a roaring truth that is now coming up for air. If something has been hidden or pushed under the rug this aspect could signify it coming out once and for all. This aspect can also unveil an emotional confrontation. If you are sensitive someone may speak harshly to you and upset you. Try not to take it personal. It’s not what they said, it's how they said it.

Sunday - August 18, 2019
On Sunday, the Moon will move into Aries. The Waning Moon in Aries will form a conjunction to Chiron Rx in Aries. This aspect sparks a new idea or healing movement for self and others. If you have felt held back, low energy, or not sure what steps to take in a personal pursuit, this energy will get new ideas flowing. Be mindful that the majority of the population are on edge. When dealing with others, tread lightly.
On Sunday, Mars will also enter Virgo until October 4, 2019. When Mars is in Virgo our actions are solid, stable, reliable, and directed towards hard work. We are more conscious of the smaller details that would often be overlooked. This period is excellent for entrepreneurs and creators who deal with detailed work, also those who are in the necessity, transportation, and textile industries. During this period we are more likely to fall victim to self-doubt, judgement, and perfectionist tendencies. Avoid being perfect and instead focus on quality. Self-learning activities like reading, workshops, and hands-on training are very beneficial for the future. This is a great time to connect and engage with your local community and family. Family reunions and community festivals, gatherings, and etc are more common and successful now.

Weekly Horoscopes for each zodiac sign:
Aries:
When you act from a place of fearlessness and humility the world is truly your playground. This week asks that you follow your heart and your sense of knowing what to do next, especially in areas of business and parenthood. Look to your higher self for guidance in your next steps. You’re next big project is much closer than you think.
Taurus:
Finding a groove is the most challenging part of transition for you. You need stability and routine, but sometimes it's okay if chaos disrupts your regularly scheduled program. Look into the areas of your life that are stagnant, even if they don’t feel like they are. This is where you need to insert some change. Don’t be afraid.
Gemini:
Laughter is your medicine this week, Gemini. You could be feeling a little haywire and under the weather but this doesn’t mean you’ve done anything wrong. Sometimes your body slows you down before you really get off balance. Trust this slow down. You’ll be back to full speed soon.
Cancer:
When you step away from the desires of others you are left with the choice of what do you really want. This week forces you to stop focusing on others and really tune into the high-value needs and belief of your true self. Do not be afraid to release old karmic ties and self-limiting thoughts. This is your time to get down to the nitty gritty of who you are and who you ultimately want to become.
Leo:
Sometimes trusting the process can be hard for you, especially when you don’t even know where to start or where to end. But this is where your superstar heart force power kicks in. When you are lost your heart shows you the way; you just need to learn how to interpret it.
Virgo:
When you get down and out believe that you are already where you want to be and the door will open for you. Trusting in your ability to overcome any obstacle is a superpower that comes natural for you -- tap into it. You are not that far away from where you think you should be, but instead of looking ahead tune into now, only then will “time” move in a way you never expected.
Libra:
Your super positive mindset takes you very far this week, Libra. Life has tested you immensely, but you are much stronger than you think. Tap into the inner warrior this week and let the spirit move you where you need to go. Trusting that you are here for a higher purpose gives you the extra boost you need to kick things into high gear and stay there. Don’t back down now, you have to keep going.
Scorpio:
What you say happens this week, so be very intentional with your words both spoken and silent. Relationships heaten up for you and they can become somewhat of a distraction, but don’t lose sight of your goal. Don’t forget why you went there (here) and even started in the first place. Reminding yourself where you started is all the encouragement you need to push through the emotional intensity that awaits you this week.
Sagittarius:
Trust in your power and don’t use it lightly. But this doesn’t mean you have to be a tyrant or bulldoze others who you “think” stand in your way. Nobody is standing in front of you, Sagittarius. If anyone is holding you back from being what you want, or doing what you wish, it’s you. You need to address your own self-limiting beliefs instead of projecting them on others. It’s you who needs a hard look in the mirror.
Capricorn:
Big doors open for you this week in terms of self-healing and actualization. You come face to face with hidden shadow aspects of your personality that you honestly wish didn’t exist. But the beautiful part of this unmasking process is that now you know, so you can address them whole-heartedly. Embrace your healing journey. You aren’t in a rush.
Aquarius:
Light speed, Aquarius, light speed! This week’s full moon is in your sign and you feel it with all your heart. Trusting in your voice and ability to lead is all you need to fulfill this new mission you are on. Others may be looking to you, or offering you a new position of authority and it’s left up to you whether you take it or not. But even if you don’t, use this as a major boost to your self-confidence. You can do anything you set your intention on!
Pisces:
You may find yourself wishing you were invisible this week but don’t even go there, Pisces. If you feel the water works or a dramatic meltdown coming on, stop it in its tracks! The ascension bug is not a negative one, but you do have to let go of something that you typically find comfort in. Release your mind from needing to “feel” everything on such an intimate level. Detachment is healthy and you should try it more often.
