Hi, LEO!
Welcome to your ⭑ COSMIC WEATHER REPORT⭑ for AUGUST 2023!

1: A FULL MOON happens in your 7th House (One-on-one interaction, Relationships, Committed Partnerships).
The month opens with a rebellious Full Moon in your seventh house, dear Leo! A full moon symbolizes culminations, endings, and heightened emotional energy. With the moon here, themes related to partnerships, relationships, and cooperation come to the forefront, and you may experience intensified emotions and a strong focus on your one-on-one connections with others. Nasa Venus retrograde period din tayo, adding to the emotional intensity, kaya always be mindful of potential misunderstandings and unresolved issues in your relationships!
This lunation may bring opportunities for growth and transformation in your partnerships, but it’s important to avoid power struggles or becoming overly possessive. The Full Moon exchanges challenging but dynamic energy with Jupiter, which could enhance your enthusiasm for building deeper emotional bonds, but it may also lead to a risk of emotional exaggeration or impractical expectations. Strive for a balanced and realistic approach to your interactions with others, and embrace the potential for personal growth and connection during this transformative period. ❤
7-9: VENUS RX in your 1st House (SELF, Physical Body, First Impressions, Self-Projection), squares URANUS in your 10th House (Career, Profession, Reputation, Public Persona).
This transit signifies a period of unexpected changes and upheaval, particularly in areas of love, finances, and personal values. Relationships might experience sudden shifts, and you may experience the reemergence of past issues needing resolution. Akala mo ok na, hindi pa pala! financial situations could undergo unpredictable fluctuations too, so keep yourself as prudent as possible, para walang pagsisisi. This transit prompts a reevaluation of self-worth and an urge to break from traditional notions in favor of individuality and innovation, lalo na in areas where the square takes place. Despite being challenging, it offers opportunities for personal growth and reassessment of desires and values, so laban lang!
16: A NEW MOON happens in your 1st House (SELF, Physical Body, First Impressions, Self-Projection).
New Moons kick off a new lunar cycle, which is often a good time for new beginnings and to start new projects. This month, the New Moon’s energy is intertwined with a retrograde Venus in your 1st house, putting a spotlight on your self-identity, personal goals, and physical appearance! You may feel the urge to change something aesthetically, kunwari changing your fashion style or updating a haircut, to name a few. It could also be a time where you start thinking more about how you present yourself to the world – your demeanor, your style, and your personal vibe.
It’s possible that past self-perceptions or personal goals might come back into focus, and you may find yourself reevaluating your self-image and making new plans for your personal growth and development. While Venus retrograde might stir up some intense feelings (watch out for exes na pwede sumulpot!), the Moon can help you turn this into personal growth and a stronger sense of self. It’s a great chance for a fresh start when it comes to your self-image and your personal goals. ❤
21-23: VENUS RX in your 1st House (SELF, Physical Body, First Impressions, Self-Projection), squares JUPITER in your 10th House (Career, Profession, Reputation, Public Persona).
When a retrograde Venus, symbolizing love, beauty, and values squares Jupiter, the planet of expansion, luck, and higher learning, we experience period of introspection and reassessment regarding relationships, values, or finances. This period of introspection, due to Venus, is in conflict with the optimistic and expansive energy of Jupiter, leading to potential discomfort or dissatisfaction, focused on the areas where this square happens. This tension could prompt reassessments in relationships or finances to align with broader perspectives or opportunities represented by Jupiter.
For example, we might be asked to reassess a relationship (Venus) because of long-distance travel or higher education opportunities (Jupiter), or our financial habits (Venus) might be called into question as we aim for greater prosperity or meaning (Jupiter). Depende kung saan ito tatama sa chart mo. The tension created by the square can prompt us to resolve these issues, leading to personal growth and development. ❤
23: The SUN enters and travels through your 2nd House (Personal Income/Finances, Possessions, Self-Worth).
As the Sun steps into your 2nd house, it brings a warm glow to your personal resources, values, and sense of self-esteem. This transit offers an invigorating boost, encouraging you to focus on your financial health, examine what you truly value, and strengthen your self-appreciation. It’s an opportune time to explore new ways to increase your income, reassess what you hold dear, or bolster your self-confidence. Madaming business ideas na pwede pumasok sayo ngayon kaya ilista mo lang lahat, magagamit mo yan someday.
The 2nd house also pertains to physical possessions, so you might feel inspired to declutter or enhance your personal space. Conversely, baka mainspire ka to buy more things and spend more than what your budget can allow, so e cautious in this front! Absorb the Sun’s radiant energy, assert your values confidently, and treat yourself with the love you deserve!
24: MERCURY turns Retrograde your 2nd House (Personal Income/Finances, Possessions, Self-Worth).
When Mercury, the planet of communication and intellect, turns retrograde, you can expect delays, misunderstandings, and a need for revisiting and reassessing, particularly in areas of technology and travel. During this cycle, which lasts from August 24 – September 16, Mercury retrogrades in your 2nd house, the sector of personal values, finances, and possessions.
Over the next 3 weeks, there could be miscommunications or confusion surrounding financial matters. miscalculation din, madalas mangyari, for example, baka ma double ka ng bayad, or mali ang account na masendan, etc. You might also find yourself reassessing your personal values, possessions, and views on self-worth. Venus is also retrograde, so this could add a layer of complexity or confusion! It’s best to wrap up significant financial decisions before the retrograde period begins, to avoid the retro fog.
But remember, Mercury retrograde isn’t only about challenges. It’s also a time for reflection, revisiting old issues, and finding resolutions to ongoing problems. So, even if you face setbacks or need to rework your financial plans, view these challenges as opportunities for refinement and growth. Ultimately, this period can lead to a better understanding of your financial standing and personal values, promoting a more balanced and prosperous life. ❤
27: MARS enters and travels through your 3rd House (Immediate Environment, Siblings, Short-term Travel).
When Mars, the planet of action and energy, enters your 3rd house, you’re likely to notice a surge of activity around communication, learning, and local travel. This is a time when you might feel compelled to express your ideas assertively, get more involved in community activities, or take short, action-packed trips. Exciting, yes, pero keep in mind, Mercury and Venus are both retrograde, so delays are likely to happen! Details can be overlooked lalo na kung nagmamadali ka. Mars in the 3rd house could also generate heated discussions or debates, so remember to apply diplomacy and tact. Use this period to convey your thoughts dynamically, learn new skills, or explore your local environment with renewed vigor. ❤
31: A BLUE MOON (A second full Moon) happens in your 8th House (Transformation, Intimacy, Joint Finances/Ventures).
A “blue moon” is a term used to refer to a second full moon in a single calendar month. While it doesn’t physically turn blue, minsan lang ‘to, hence the phrase “once in a blue moon”. This particular Blue Moon occurs in your 8th House, dear Leo, indicating a period of intensified focus on areas of intimacy, shared resources, rebirth, and psychological understanding.
The blue moon here may prompt some turbulence and discomfort, urging you to address any unresolved issues around shared finances, or unexplored aspects of your inner self. You might experience sudden recollections of past intimate encounters or reconsider personal transformations that you thought you had left behind. Akala mo ok ka na, hindi pa pala. Discussions about deeper psychological insights could be profound and significant now, with a good deal of reminiscing.
This specific moon is also conjunct Saturn, the planet of discipline, karma, and structure. You might feel a strong sense of responsibility towards your shared resources or face challenges related to dynamics of personal transformation or long-held ambitions. This can be a transformative period, dear Leo, as Saturn’s presence encourages maturity, nudging you to learn valuable lessons from these introspections and changes, ultimately leading to long-term growth and development. ❤ Hinga ng malalim, in and out. you got this!
