Hi, this is Dietrich Pessin with the Astrology Report for the 8th of August throughout this next week. I want to say happy birthday to Kimberly Chin. She had a birthday on the 6th. And then Vicky Lynn today on the 8th of August. Happy birthday, Vicky! She is in L.A.

There is a Green Light all day today, Saturday into Sunday morning. This is a big week with planet changes and a Solar Eclipse on Wednesday. We have a Gemini Moon today. That is the Moon sign that can bring misunderstandings. If you think you are well informed, you could be misinformed. So, do not be so sure you know what you think you know. Information can be twisted to suit a situation and not be based in fact.

So, there is a good Moon sign while it is in Gemini to connect with siblings or lost connections with others. It is a good day to get many things done at once. Multitasking as much as you want and staying focused can be a challenge. So go with the flow during this Gemini Moon. That will be with us all day today into tomorrow, Sunday the 9th, and that would be until 3:45 AM.

The last aspect of the Gemini Moon will be at 2:43 AM Sunday morning. It will be void of course until 3:45 AM. So that is not too hard to take.

The Cancer Moon comes in. That would be at 3:45 AM Sunday. It does not have a Green Light period because Mars is holding the sign up. So, there is no Green Light on the 9th, the 10th, or early the 11th.

The Moon in Cancer is headed for a few big planet interactions. It will square off with both Venus in Libra, and Neptune in Aries. That will bring some difficulties, possibly with love and friendship. Neptune is the romantic planet. So that can definitely bring some romance, some creativity. You can go to a show, have a good time out with friends.

That Neptune energy is also sensitive and not very serious. It has a lot of blurred edges. So, this Cancer Moon going through August 9th sees one thing: Mercury leaving the sign of Cancer and hopping into Leo. That would be at 12:28 PM. Mercury in Leo makes a big show. Anything that it says, it says in a big way. It makes loud statements. It is got a megaphone so you do not have to listen too hard. I think it will just all be shouted at you.

On August 10th The Cancer Moon lowers your mood when square Saturn in Aries. But that is in the middle of the night. I do not think we have to worry about that. There can be self-doubt keeping you up at night from that Moon square Saturn. Try to let that go, as the morning brings ways to resolve, maybe money problems. Your affiliation with a group can help you go in the right direction to solve the problems that you have at this time.

Cancer Moon sign is sensitive and very much about family matters. It is the sign of the baby.

Venus is opposite Neptune. This is on August 10th. That is at 6:01 PM. So maybe the restaurant you chose is closed or does not have the food that you are looking for. It is dreamy and romantic, but your choices may definitely need a second opinion because Venus opposite Neptune is not very clear-eyed.

We have also Mars changing signs. It is leaving Gemini, and that would be on August 11th, 4:30 AM. It is headed for the sign of Cancer. Mars will be in Cancer until the 29th of September. It can be making trouble in the home, and also about family matters. Or maybe there is some news about a new family member that may upset the apple cart in some way. Mars acts as if it can do whatever it pleases. If there is a custody battle for one parent or the other, it could definitely be bringing problems in that area.

Cooking may be more fun with Mars in Cancer. Certainly, eating will be. Security is the issue with Mars in Cancer. You are motivated to make yourself more secure in those around you.

Also, fuel for any purpose can fluctuate greatly. I notice that at my corner gas station, the price keeps going up, then down, then up, then down. Fluctuations are driving me crazy.

Mars, the masculine person, may convince you that things are going their way, but eventually things could fail. All matters are complicated by emotional and domestic factors, so nothing is a guarantee. Mars is the planet of war, and it can overreact in the sign of Cancer. Might makes right is the thinking of the day with Mars in Cancer. So be careful who you align yourself with. Maybe not too tightly to anyone. The Moon is void of course after that at 4:30 AM until 4:37 AM when the Moon goes into Leo.

The Moon in Leo brings several big events. There is a long Green Light period from that time until August 11th at 5:16 PM. That is on the 12th. So, what do we have here? We have on the 11th, we have Mercury opposite Pluto, 9:19 PM.

So, these are evening aspects. Mercury trine Neptune, then Venus trine Uranus. So here is what those things might bring us: Mercury opposite Pluto demands outright thinking. It also is pressured by a power monger, so you want to use this way to think outside the box. Think how you could do things your way. Maybe step aside from the person who is trying to pressure you.

Make your travel plans as simplistic as possible. Refrain from unchartered territory and very unfamiliar neighborhoods. I would steer clear. Country roads are the best with Mercury trine Neptune. That is also a way to get your thinking outside the box again. Neptune is the planet of very vague edges. It rules the sign of Pisces, so it is sensitive and musical. So, music is a great tonic for anxiety.

Venus is making a nice trine to Uranus late Tuesday. It is perfect for hanging out with friends and also expressing yourself. Maybe in the way that you dress or a new haircut. Something that makes you happy.

Wednesday, the Leo Moon brings the Solar Eclipse. That Solar Eclipse is at 1:36 PM. It will not be visible here. It will be visible... Where is that going to be? Mostly in Spain and Portugal, Greenland and Iceland. It is total. It is a total eclipse for 2’ (minutes) 30” (seconds) at 20° (degrees) of Leo. So, if you have Leo in your chart. This one is for you. It is a very dramatic sight, if you are anywhere near being able to see it.

Solar Eclipse near the same location occurred on August 11, 2018. There were Lunar Eclipses at this degree in 2009 and 2017. So, dates from those periods, topics from those periods might come up again in a big way because an eclipse is a big deal. It is the Sun and the Moon are joined. They are lined up with the Earth in such a way that they all make a straight line with each other. The Moon is blocking the Sun's view. It is in between the Sun and the Earth. We can expect the Solar Eclipse to have an impact on us for several weeks.

There is a Lunar Eclipse that will be coming in two weeks' time. After that, there will be a Lunar Eclipse in the sign of Pisces, actually. So, the Moon is void of course on the 12th. That is from 5:16 PM Wednesday until Thursday morning.

On Thursday we see a Moon sign change. This is at 6:17 AM. The Moon will go into Virgo. That is everything work and task related. Coworkers are your best companions when there is a Virgo Moon sign.

There is a lovely Mercury and Venus aspect at 12:22 PM. They are in a 60° aspect called a sextile. We get free-flowing information. It is a go with the flow kind of thing. Social conversations are easy. Spirit of compromise and agreement is there. So, you have something you want others to agree with, that is the time to present it. or the day, on the 13th to present it with the spirit of compromise and agreement. It is harmonious when it interacts with others. Clarity and appreciation of beauty can also be on your side. You can each easily reach those that you love on the 13th.

There is a little upset the apple cart aspect between the Moon and Uranus on the 13th at 3:23 PM. So, conversations could get cut off and work could be interrupted. That could be a little disrupted. But I think it all gets back on track easy enough.

Friday's Virgo Moon tends to ongoing projects and allows you to socialize also with coworkers.

Pallas Athena, it is an asteroid. She rules our counselors, our companions. It is turning retrograde for a few months, and that would be on Friday the 14th in Aries.

What we have for the rest of Friday evening is a very social evening with the Moon and Neptune making contact. That is great for helpful friends. And also using the remainder of the Virgo sign to help others. Check in with those that have been under the weather as well. Okay, that is it for the week.

You can find a copy of this on my website at Lunar-Shadows.com. You can call me. You can talk about astrology. Make an appointment at 617-558-7233. Again, that is 617-558-7233. And I want to thank Victor and also Julie Stoller, she is there for us. She keeps us connected. And also, Kimberly Chin for her transcription. Thank you very much. Have a great week. Give me a call at 617-558-7233. Bye for now.

WZBC 90.3 FM Boston Massachusetts on Saturday mornings with Victor Robert Venckus, Expanding Awareness, in and around 9:30 AM.

 

Good morning, Victor. Well, we have a Pisces Moon today. The Moon will travel through all the way to Taurus. So, it will go through Pisces, then Aries, and Taurus, and touch into Gemini. We have a Green Light all day today as well, during this Pisces Moon sign. It is a time when you could experience your feelings very deeply, or hiding something. Maybe you are hiding an illness or something from a family member. Or maybe you are hiding the fact that you did not finish your work at the office. I do not know. Something is secret. Pisces is the ruler of secrets. So, your feelings may invade your day during this Moon sign. So, if you… I do not know… be physically active. If you can keep things moving, keep the blood moving.

So, what we have as far as aspects. I have a frog in my throat today, sorry. Mars is making an aspect to Pluto. That points to December 2028 and June 2029. That sure looks like peak election period to me. So, we will have to keep our ear to the ground and keep our eyes out there on the road and see what is going on.

If you can, pick up some of the players or activities that will take place during 2028 election campaign. In our personal lives, it may facilitate your efforts to build or create something, something large. Maybe you will be putting up a fence around a big backyard, that kind of thing. Or digging a big hole. I do not know what you could be doing, but it is pretty big. You could also engage with large groups with this aspect. It is all day today, all tonight. It could be something about protest.

Then we have Mercury and Uranus; they are coupled in an aspect. So, they tease information from close people and important circles. Also, political parties seem to be noted. They tie to support groups or to the community. So, if you want to connect with support groups, that Mercury Uranus aspect might help you. I do not know whether you will be agreeable for staying, but check it out.

Then we are still having a Green Light August 1st, August 2nd until fourth. 3:06 PM on Sunday.

Then the Moon will enter the sign of Aries. That Aries Moon… there is no Green Light during that that Moon sign. It is a fiery sign. So, you might have a lot of get up and go. You could have a lot of ideas. Aries rules the brain, the head. So, if you want to, if you want to bounce some ideas off another, this is a good Moon sign, the Aries Moon sign to do that.

But Venus will link to one of its favorite planets, Neptune, during the Aries Moon sign. It is dreamy and romantic. It can invite you to catch a film with another or stroll through the streets and have a sweet experience one way or another. There is no Green Light during the Aries Moon, as the Moon upsets Venus at the end of the signs. Like, oh, Venus is really on stage all this week. So be careful with love and money, that is what Venus is all about. Careful with your spending during the Aries Moon sign. At the end of the Moon sign, the Moon is quincunx Venus. Means life's messy. Clean it up. This is about your pocketbook or your relationship. It could be a relationship with your mate or with a friend. Or someone who you wanted to be your friend. So, take it easy and do not overestimate your role. Keep everything as light as possible.

The Moon changes signs on August 4th, 10:35 PM. It will enter the sign of Taurus. Now, there is not a Green Light for the most of the sign of Taurus. Now, Taurus… Venus is happy in the sign of Taurus, but it is not there. The Moon in Taurus is also happy. It is called exalted. It is the best place the Moon could ever be is in the sign of Taurus. So, Taurus loves the Moon here. There is no Green Light there. You may be motivated toward a purchase as Mars and Vesta tempt you to buy something. So, you want to be careful because everything is not perfect for purchases.

There is a Last Quarter Moon on Wednesday. This one is at 14 Taurus. That is close to a point called the World Axis. That would be 0 Aries, 15 Taurus, 0 Cancer, 15 Leo, 0 Libra, 15 Scorpio, and 0 Aquarius 0 Capricorn and 0° 15” Aquarius. So, this Last Quarter Moon, it is linked to when it all began. There is a Moon family, May of 2024 during the election campaign. Now 2024, you may reflect back and remember. In July, President Biden announced he was not going to be running, and he turned the campaign over to Kamala Harris. 9 months later, there was a First Quarter Moon on February 5, 2025. Now, that was just after Mr. Trump was inaugurated. Then it produced a Full Moon last November 5th in Taurus.

There is a story in here for all of us to watch closely. In 3 months, the midterm elections will take place in the U.S. and it is related. The three planets that are hanging out in a big way-there is actually four: Pluto, Neptune, Uranus-are still in play with their very powerful connection. They are all linked at 4° (degrees) of Pluto in Aquarius, Neptune in Aries, Uranus in Gemini, and then Jupiter is also involved. It is cozying up to the Lunar Node at the time of the election, which is likely to expand the democratic signature, which we all expect and hope. Saturn is the indicator for a Republican's signature, and it is not directly connected in this group that we are seeing connected. I am talking about the Quarter Moon. It is a Last Quarter Moon. It is 10:21 PM and it is on August 5th.

Then we have Venus changing signs. Venus is leaving the work sign of Virgo and going into the relationship sign of Libra, August 6th. That is at 3:12 PM. So, this is the comfort zone for Libra. She knows all about companionship and closeness and hanging out and having a good time with others, parties, social events. It brings a bit of a Green Light from 3:12 PM August 6th until let's see, I guess that would go all the way to the end of that sign at 2:07 AM the next day on Friday. But there is something to cover before that.

The Sun and Saturn - they join in a beautiful 120° aspect. It is called a trine. This opens the door for creativity. It secures a place in the show. If you have products to sell, or if you have something that you want to share with others, this is the really good aspect to do that. You could find a serious buyer for whatever product you are putting out there.

There is a Moon sign change Friday 2:07 AM. It goes into Gemini, and it travels through this chatty sign all day Friday and Saturday. Gossip runs through circles like the wind. There is a Green Light, and that would be on August 7th. It goes all the way through Friday and Saturday.

The Moon connects with Uranus. This is also on Friday to activate that grand planetary configuration again: Pluto, Neptune, Uranus, and Jupiter. Mamma Mia. That is why it is been so crazy these days. You wonder things have not been this insane in a in a long time or maybe you can never remember being this insane. So, this is why this major configuration of these planets.

So, the Moon still in Gemini. Being chatty, joining with others. Good time to connect with your siblings as well. Maybe visit. Or maybe you want to call someone overseas, make connections with people. It is a good thing to do. That Gemini Moon sign continues until Sunday, August 9th at 2:43 AM. So that is it for the week.

You can find a copy of this on my website at Lunar-Shadows.com. And okay, we will talk to you. You can reach me at 617-558-7233. That is 617-558-7233. Okay, take it away, Victor.
