This Week in Astrology

“The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you.
Don’t go back to sleep.
You must ask for what you really want
Don’t go back to sleep
People are going back and forth across the doorsill
Where the two worlds touch.
The door is wide and open
Don’t go back to sleep.” Rumi

Mercury is now in Virgo through the end of the month. This opens up a new cycle that bodes well for planning and organizing. It’s a good time for strategy and clarity of thought. It’s best to take advantage of this alignment before August 20 when Mercury will move up to an opposition to Neptune.

Mercury is moving up to a conjunction with Mars now and this adds extra energy to get tasks done. This will be in effect through the 2oth.

Venus has been making a favorable alignment to Pluto- providing a good time to get in touch with what you feel passionately about. It is also a good influence under which to bring change or transformation to financial matters or relationships.

One of the Sabian symbols for this time is,” a fine lace ornamental handkerchief.”
