August is a month of passionate “new beginnings” and “opportunities to manifest creative change in any area of your life that has become stagnant”. August 7th brings a lunar eclipse “in the sign of Aquarius and opposes Mars”, which can feel extremely intense! It might “be difficult to keep a lid on things, and we might find that our emotions spill out and overpower us and those around us”. As we begin to gain clarity on situations, and “Mercury slows and turns retrograde on August 13th, in the sign of Virgo” we would benefit by making a sustained effort to “swim with the tide and not try to force things”. During Mercury retrogrades it is always best to “go with the flow”, be philosophical over any delays and stay positive, allowing our creative minds to switch on and assist us in our journeys and our day-to-days. Things can’t be forced during retrogrades; the opportunity exists to “review, repair, renew, rejuvenate, re-evaluate and revisit” whatever has been neglected. A “solar eclipse on August 21st is a major cosmic event and has the potential to shake up things on the world stage, and bring big changes;a sudden awakening is possible. We should send up collective prayers and meditations on that day, as well as leading up to it, for peace and love for our planet. The eclipse is likely to bring greater opportunities for new beginnings, which are more easily undertaken without a load of old baggage weighing us down. We are called to “lighten up”! The solar eclipse in Leo, accompanied by Mars, is sure to be “a dramatic time for the Leos; to utilize Mars in the best way possible we should apply energy and motivation” to our desires while allowing destiny to work with us. The eclipse occurring near the end of the sign — often indicates endings. The eclipse is “exactly trine Uranus — the planet of change and innovation”, which lends its supporting influence to help us “embrace the new at this time”. We need not always resist change, and we can choose to release material things we no longer need as well as thoughts and belief systems that no longer serve us. We can choose to accept change and TRUST that the universe is bringing us greater good for all concerned and for our own personal growth. “If we are willing to honor the truth of who we really are, we could find the events of August are actually just what we need — if we only dare admit it.” We can lighten up, let go, and Let God.
