Astrological Almanac for Sunday, August 8, 2021

Published by chris on 2021-08-072021-08-07

(All times Eastern)

The Moon starts the day with a conflicting aspect to Uranus, making the morning uneasy and feeling unbalanced. The Sun squared Uranus on Friday, and when the Moon catches the Sun at 9:50 am to form the New Moon in Leo, they are both still in a close square to it. So the uncomfortable sense of the last few days is now “baked into” the New Moon chart, and will be a background influence for the next month. Here on the East Coast, it falls in the 11^th house of social groups and organizations; so it’s likely to affect our relationships with these types of entities. Uranus squares them from the 8^th house of death, debt, taxes, and shared resources. So these are also likely to be themes this month.

Overnight, the dark Moon conjoins Mercury; normally this would bring a positive tone to communications and sales, but this time it may all seem a bit “off,” with the prevailing energy of the New Moon chart.

Venus moves into opposition with Neptune tomorrow, increasing the likelihood of poor judgment in relationships. More on that tomorrow.
