Friday 12th August - Full Moon in Aquarius
August 2022
Overview For All Signs
August is going to be one of the most eventful months of the year. Expect big changes and transformation as the universe throws some big curve balls our way.
With seven planetary bodies in retrograde at once, we are being pulled to the past and to bringing closure with all that no longer serves us. The full Moon in Aquarius on the 12th will bring all signs that opportunity to cut ties with the past and feel they are finally moving forward.
There is a stuck energy that has been building since October 2021 and it finally comes to head now in August. Whatever has been trying to happen or change since then will take place under this energy in a big way.
The 21st of August is a big big deal! Mars goes into Gemini for a staggering six months instead of the usual six weeks. That means that any themes that come up as this happens are going to linger until well after the new year. The power of your words, no matter what sign you are, over these six months will be so much more than usual. The key is to use them wisely and positively, because their effects will be lasting and likely to be life changing.
As the Sun enters Virgo toward the end of the month, we will all be thinking about changing our day to day habits for the better. Using this time to focus on your health and wellbeing will bring you rewards, perfect as we enter into spring!
Enjoy the changes coming your way, and thank you for being part of the Astrology Club. You are loved and appreciated.
Happy August!
Astrology and Intuition
As astrologists there are certain placements within one’s chart that signify intuitive abilities.
Those who have Taurus, Scorpio, and/or the planet of Pluto in the eighth house are talented at reading the emotions and motives of others.
Those with Aries, Leo, Sagittarius, Mars, the Sun, and/or Jupiter in the first, fifth, or ninth house have very strong creative intuition. These people make exceptionally talented artists and musicians.
Those with Aquarius and/or Uranus in the eleventh house are highly intuitive around science, medicine, and future events and have an intuitive wealth of knowledge they can access at anytime.
Those with Pisces and/or Neptune in the twelfth house have strong clairvoyant and mediumship abilities, strong healing abilities, and musical talent.
Sun quincunx with Neptune makes for a very psychically open and hypersensitive child.
Mercury conjunct with Neptune is common in those who are drawn to the physical world but struggle between what is intuition and imagination.
Those with their Neptune conjunct to their Midheaven have very strong clairvoyant and mediumship abilities. They are very talented at channeling messages.
Any placement of water in your chart indicates intuitive ability. The more water, the more intuition.
