Money will be on your mind throughout the month. A warm and friendly new moon, August 2, will give you a rare chance to ask for a raise in the days that quickly follow that new moon. If you are self-employed, you will find lucrative ways to bring in more business. Start working on your goal to increase your cash flow the moment the new moon arrives, and gather up the courage to ask for an increase. Saturn will be friendly to that new moon and will give you a comforting feeling of job security once you get an affirmative yes, which seems very likely. Mars will be in good angle to the new moon (although admittedly, a bit wide in orbit, mathematically), but nevertheless I feel you’ll want to act, and because Mars rules your house of fame and honors, you may get a promotion to boot. Speak up!
More talks about money will come up at the full moon of August 18. These talks will be even more intense, and will center on your salary but rather on money you owe others, as well as money they owe you. If you made an application for funds you need to work on a goal, such as to start your own business, go to college, or buy a house (among many possibilities), you will hear an answer back – you should get an exciting approval. Depending on how things have been going in your life, the full moon may have you thinking about taxes, credit cards, or student loans. This full moon will be emotional but could bring sudden good news thanks to Uranus, planet of surprise. This full moon seems to center you on your career too, so you may, alternatively, be negotiating a benefits package (health care, vacation days, and so forth) to go with your salary. Something about what happens financially near August 18 will surprise you in a positive way.
Be careful of falls or an injury to a bone or tooth when Mars conjoins Saturn on August 24 – it would not be the time to climb up on your roof to fix a tile or to parachute out of an airplane. Extreme activities are not wise on this day!
Mars recently went direct July 28, and by August 22 will be back to former strength. Watch August 22 for news that you may be propelled into a lot of exciting work at the office and a growing to-do-list at home. Events this month will move very quickly – Mars is in a fire sign, and fire is fast! You will be too busy to go on your vacation for this month, but be confident that the eclipses in September will bring you fun opportunities to pack and go.
August 22 will be a special time to travel for any reason, fun or business. Love seems to flourish on trips, so if you have someone special, see if you can plan a long weekend getaway from August 20 to 22, to get time to unwind and relax from the pressures of deadlines at work.
You will be able to take weekend trips, with August 27-28 your very best time. The love-me planet Venus will conjoin happiness planet Jupiter, making for a divine overnight holiday. The transiting moon will cooperate by transiting in Cancer. This is a weekend where everything goes your way. Alternatively, rather than travel, you can give a gathering at home – throw a barbecue, sit-down dinner, or ask friends in for cocktails, for over this weekend, all will enjoy the party to the fullest.
Mercury will go retrograde on August 30 to September 22. Any appliance, camera, computer item, or other electronic you own may bring problems, so you may have to run off to the repair shop at a moment’s notice. Back up your data as you work and you will stay happy. Avoid buying new electronics now, and appliances or a car, too.
