WZBC 90.3 FM Boston Massachusetts on Saturday mornings with Victor Robert Venckus, Expanding Awareness, in and around 9:30 AM.
Hi. It is August 9th.. this is the astrology report for the week ahead through next week, until the 15th of August. We have very high energies right now. High energies and tempers are flying. Tempers are short. There is a Full Moon in Aquarius. It comes with a cache of Mars energy. So, while Mars seems to be stuck like a broken record, because it is opposite Saturn and Neptune, it attempts to force issues to the foreground with justice as it is goal. But you have to be careful about what the intentions are with Mars, because there is there is always something more to be considered.
There is a lack of clarity going on and unknown factors because of Sun and Neptune in aspect to one another. This is an aspect of 135° (degrees). It can also bring the practical use of art and music, impressionability. a lot of escape urges. With this. Misunderstandings. There are visions which deceive. So do not believe everything you dream up. Mistakes and errors and judgment are common with this aspect between the Sun and Neptune. Foggy or sloppy conditions can also be apparent with this aspect. So, you want to be careful when you are trying to move forward with your goals. Try to clear up your thoughts before moving forward.
So, the Full Moon that we have early this morning it was at 3:55 AM. It was a Full Moon at 16,17° of Aquarius. In 2017 we had a Full Moon also back there, near the same degree. That is when the Trump administration was threatening the DACA young people, 780,000 immigrants. Trump was moving forward to end [the] program that protected young immigrants from deportation. So, here he is again, with his focus on immigrants.
There [are] several planets besides the Sun and the Moon that are 180° apart. That is what makes a Full Moon. The Sun and the Moon are exactly opposite. Also opposite would be Mars opposite Neptune, Mars opposite Saturn. Both of those planets are in Aries. Well, Aries is the home sign for Mars. So that makes Mars kind of angry. He is trying to throw his weight around and throw his spear around from Libra, the sign of balance and fairness. So, it would appear that both of these principles are far from the nature of Mars. Mars, while in Libra, may have strong desires for justice and balance. It does so by acting out instead of using diplomacy.
So, what we have also during this August 9th, another aspect of the Sun. It is parallel Mercury. It brings strong mental focus and attention to detail. You may align with others of equal mental capacity to work through complex issues. Children can be a part of the equation as well. So, taking the kids along is a really good idea.
There is a void of course Moon. That will begin at 4:11 PM today on Saturday the 9th. And continue right through until 2:50 AM tomorrow morning, Sunday. Then the Moon will enter the sign of Pisces.
Before that happens, there is an aspect between Mars and Neptune. They are opposite. Very strong, indecisive energy. That seems to be an opposite in nature. But not just not being able to nail things down in any way, especially with Mars in Libra. Very indecisive complex situations that require both force and sensitivity are evident. Competitive actions that are secret or hidden could be leaked. So, keep your ear to the ground about things that might be secrets that could be very interesting.
Conflicts of beliefs and ideologies might be noted during this aspect that comes up. Lots of disappointments. It is like, No, I did not think that was going to happen. Or I did not see where this lived up to it is potential or promise. There was a broken promise. There is the urge to escape. Also, a lot of physical weaknesses and a lack of energy can be found with this Mars opposite Neptune. That is all during a void of course Moon. So, is it likely to take hold? We will have to watch it and see.
The Moon enters Pisces at 2:50 AM on Sunday. It goes through the sign of Pisces until Tuesday at 6:30 AM.
Then the Moon will change signs and go into Aries. But during that Pisces Moon sign, we welcome Mercury direct. Mercury has been retrograde for a few weeks. Now it turns direct at 3:30 AM on Monday morning during the Pisces Moon. All that conflict that we had been seeing or watching with Mars and Neptune. It may iron out when Mars and Neptune come up with another aspect during the Pisces Moon sign. So, it would seem, from the Saturday connection that Mars and Neptune had, that there was trouble. This one may iron it out. There could be a meeting of the minds. A possible long-term compromise.
[There] is also an urge to change things. When Mars and Pluto make a trine, they like to eliminate and purify. Efforts to unite, transform, to share power and territory.
There is an intense cleaning and a purification. That is the motivation of Mars. Mars is all about motivation and the sexual interests that are strong and being convinced to something. Maybe that you should scrutinize. What are the things that are coming to you where someone else is trying to convince you of.
Then on Monday, after Mercury goes direct at 3:29 AM, we have that Pisces Moon. That is a Green Light right through the rest of the sign of Pisces going until August 12th, Tuesday, at 6:30 in the morning. So, we have a nice Green Light in there.
There is a really good aspect between Venus and Jupiter that comes up on Tuesday. But also, there is one late night Monday. Saturn and Uranus, they find an opportunity for balance. There is a healthy sense of responsibility with the ability to embrace new and exciting concepts. So, this is bright ideas. Areas of your life, which may become a little stale, are now enlivened with Uranus and Saturn in this 60° aspect. Lots of things that have been in your past, that may have felt like or have been obstacles [are] moving into a new direction. But Saturn is retrograde. Things will have to come back up around again. But you may have an understanding and breakthroughs that you did not have before.
That Venus and Jupiter aspect is at 1:30 in the morning. So that is overnight there, going into Tuesday morning. This very comfortable social situations. Maybe you are going to sleep nice and easy. Maybe, if you are on the west coast you are partying, having a good time. There could be generosity and friendliness with this aspect. Big productions or gatherings and beautiful appearances.
That Pisces Moon comes up to the Aries door. That is at 6:30 AM on Tuesday. It runs through the sign of Aries, right through Wednesday into Thursday, until 9:21 AM Thursday. Then the Moon will enter Taurus.
But for the Aries Moon sign there is not a lot of planet aspects going on. There are some difficulties right around lunchtime on Tuesday. The Moon is opposite Mars, so this could be cranky. Could also upset your stomach a bit. But if you are having a big lunch, you want to be careful about overloading.
Then we have the Moon in contact with Mercury, and then the Sun. So, there is lots of good spots. Nice, healthy, good spots with the planets on Tuesday.
On Wednesday, still, we have an Aries Moon sign. There is an intense social excitement at almost 10:00 at night between Venus and Uranus. So, lots of feelings are surfaced. This is on Wednesday night. Unconventional behavior. So, it could be artistic as well. If you are an artist or would like to do something artistic, this is an excellent aspect for dreaming up new artistic expression. That Aries Moon sign is void of course at 7:16 AM until 9:21 AM on Thursday.
Then the Moon enters the Sun at Taurus for a couple of days. The Taurus Moon has Mercury and Mars in aspect on the 14th. So, this is very decisive. Lots of mental assertiveness, honesty, practical solutions, technical skills, fast work, rapid progress. This is a really good aspect to get things going. That is on August 14th.
Friday on the 15th we have Venus and Vesta. Vesta is about investment and commitment. But this combination looks like it is all about money. So, the Moon is in the money sign of Taurus. So maybe there is money to be found. Look around 4:16 PM, when the Moon is making a sextile to Venus. So maybe Venus is going to show you a positive in your bank account. So that would be a good thing.
Mars and Saturn have an aspect. They are parallel. That is a cooperation going on between Mars, the action planet; and Saturn, the structure and limit planet. This allows Mars and Libra to reclaim the pride of it is own territory. So, this would be good to calm things down. If the fur is up on the back, it could calm things right down and be a little bit more agreeable.
There could be governing forces that assist in managing any of the properties that Saturn and Neptune are occupying while they are in Aries. Aries being the sign that Mars rules. So, Mars wants everything taken care of, neat and nice.
That Taurus Moon is with us through the end of Friday, making for a nice gathering energy through Friday evening and overnight and into next Saturday, when that Taurus Moon will be in a Quarter Moon. That would be a Last Quarter Moon overnight at 1:12 AM. That would be at 23° of Taurus. So, lots of money energy, with all that Taurus thing going on. Well, that is it for the week.
