Aquarius

August-September

Aquarius

What a month August promises to be! Astrologically we have the much dreaded, much talked about, total solar eclipse on August 11th, that includes several other planets joining in a pattern to produce a Fixed Grand Cross. We've heard psychics and others twisting Nostradamus's words into an interpretation that foretells an upcoming holocaust. The Cassini space probe, filled with Plutonium, passes by the earth at the same time causing even more consternation. Well, the word from this astrologer is that it ain't quite all that bad!! Check out an online article at www.sowellreview.com/eclipses.html for the whole scoop.

What does the eclipse mean for you?

If you were born when the Sun was in the fixed sign of Aquarius, you might be locked into an important struggle, with several factors working at cross purposes especually if your birthdate happens to fall between the 8th and 15th. If you are in a situation where there is a stubborn refusal to compromise and a lot of loose ends, you might even have another celestial body in that area of the zodiac. If you recognize this as happening in your life, take a deep breathe, know that things will come to a climax with the eclipse when a new path will be illuminated, but that you need to relax until next spring when the issues finally are resolved. And remember, the keyword may be "frustration" but the message is, "change is good". It might take a long time, but radical changes, although blocked and plagued with aggravation, must eventually be implemented to remove long standing problems.

Beware of inflated estimations of worth and watch for a turn in the stock market on August 25th, especially those stocks in the news the week of July 25th. Jupiter in Taurus could signal a Bull market, only to disappoint when it turns retrograde square Neptune, the deceiver. If your birthdate in is one of those fixed signs, and falls around the 22nd-29th of the month, Jupiter could bring opportunities and a period of permanent improvement to your situation. Problems from April may be rectified. Keep your feet firmly on the ground however as Neptune could make you gullible and over-confident without the facts to back it up.

Also in August, Mercury remains retrograde (appears to go backwards) until August 6th, and communications, documents, and agreements may need "repair" or to be "re-done" until the 20th of the month. Put off important matters that require clear thinking until after the 6th, as you may change direction, or new information could appear to influence decisions.

Further turns of events may occur as Venus, the celestial harbinger of love and affection makes the astrological news this month. It returns to your opposite sign, Leo, during mid-month , and makes a "station" in September. Those of you born between the 10th and 23rd of the month may find relationships particularly rewarding!! And the fleeting pleasures of Venus seem to never end as this planet of love remains in Leo all of September!!

Children of the Water Bearer born before February 1st :

Listen to the rhythm of the earth, get in touch with the music around you. Dance, walk by the ocean, or use this time to meditate on the spiritual side of life. Neptune is in your part of the zodiac for the next several years.

Aquarians born between the 1st and 10th of February: Saturn entered Taurus in March , where it will send it's sobering rays to all the fixed signs for the next few years. Saturn is the planet of discipline, of reality, of caution, and represents the need for economy. If we are patient, organized, and respectful of authority during a Saturn transit, we are rewarded with recognition and respect. However, if we do not obey the laws, whether of our society or the spirit, we find ourselves stopped and often punished for our errors. Carry your responsibility proudly and show how well you can accept the challenge – important people are watching.

For some, Uranus, planet of upsets, may touch on the most important areas of your life and bring both insights and tension. Change is good because it gets us out of ruts. But dealing with changeable and willful people can be frustrating. Play it loose and fancy free, and make no commitments now, if the winds of change blow through your life. You'll find the upset applecart might not get rolling again until after Christmas. You may find the insights of this Uranus transit particularly appealing. Breaking with the past is very easy now, and as you move into freedom, and independence, you will see this is the path to happiness and success at this point in your life.
