Lunations and Long-term Aspects

The New Moon on August 9the occurs in your polar sign, Leo, and will have the strongest effect on Aquarians born within a day or so of February 6. This is your 7th House of relationships, so look for someone new to come into your life, or perhaps a new phase of an existing relationship. This may not be a bed or roses, however, due to the fact that this lunation comes with a rather nasty looking T-square of largely unfriendly planet occupying Cardinal Signs which are all about action. Nonetheless, it's orientation with Aquarius has the potential to all work out to your advantage.

This event or situation is going to linger throughout August and into September, until this T-Square dissipates. It's likely to originate with a sudden or unexpected idea, though it could also involve a sibling or neighbor. Your beliefs and expectations with regard to responsibility and meeting your obligations will be challenged, though such things as the legal process, higher learning, returning to school could be involved as well. At the crux of all this will be something within your spiritual domain that is in the process of being rebuilt. This will be something related to your spirituality, a sudden dose of enlightenment, an attack from someone you thought was your friend, or even a serious case of self-sabotage, any of which could be involved. Particularly if your birthday is between January 21 - 26 you'll be able to take control of this situation and bring it to a favorable conclusion, but it will present some challenges along the way and provide you with insights that will last a lifetime. Something is likely to be eliminated from your life as far as your work or service is concerned as well.

The Full Moon on August 24 occurs in Pisces. This will bring something new to your finances, possessions, income, or whatever it is that you value. A Full Moon typically heralds an ending, culmination or shift to a different phase. The ongoing theme is the same as that described for the New Moon with a few new features added. Changes are afoot that are going to have a strong and lasting influence on how you see the world. As a Fixed Sign, you don't exactly embrace change, but it will be upon you, like it or not, forcing adjustments whether you like it or not. Changes to your finances are on the way, yet an expansion of your mental powers is indicated as well. You are very likely to see things differently than you ever have before.

Short-term Aspects
