New Moon Forecast for August 16th-22nd, 2020

New Moon in Leo happens on the evening of August 18th at 10:42 pm EDT.  Mercury also meets both the Moon and Sun in Leo this week before Leo season draws to a close. I hope you find some bright spots and something to look forward to during this sun ruled week!

Sunday: Cancer Moon opposes 3 planets in Capricorn today, and forms a square to Mars in Aries. Mars is in harmony with the Sun. The Cancer aspects are melancholy and can lead to moodiness, sadness or uncertainty where life things and family things must be navigated. Be true to your roots and your heart. Some of these planets are retrograde so there's more to come and further developments beyond what you see or feel today. In a month, more may come clear. The Sun aligned with Mars activates, may push matters forward, and may create positive excitement and leaps into new territory. Sense whether the timing or right or whether impulsiveness is taking over.Void Moon starts at 7:59 pm EDT. Wear Black.

Monday: The Moon enters Leo at 1:38 am EDT. Mercury and Mars are in harmony right around that time continuing the Aries/Leo fire sign vibe. Increasing it, actually. We may come out of Cancer's watery or melancholy realm more easily by morning. The Sun meets Mercury then. Communication, announcements, openings, opportunities and similar things follow. Performances, leaders, teachers, and Leos are in the spotlight with things to say. We may hear more about school plans changing or being finalized as Leo rules children and learning. Fire sign energy is very strong today. Tonight, the Moon has her monthly square to Uranus in Taurus. It's often stubborn, points out places where yield is needed, and sometimes shakes things up to see where they land or how they play out. Gold is today's color.

Tuesday: New Moon is this evening. The earlier hours are meant for reconsidering plans, revising, and hopefully improving them. It helps to be open minded and willing to re-create. Again, Mars and Uranus are the active, supporting planets, and they are not always easy or predictable. Action and movement on things does look non negotiable. Change is definitely in the air, whether welcome or wanted or not. Venus in Cancer adds a side note about shifts in relationships and family life. At 10:42 pm EDT, the New Moon is at 26 degrees of Leo, in the later part of this sign. It is likely there'll be word of change or something unforeseen by Wednesday morning. Direct your energy with positive intent. Wear White today.

Wednesday: Leo Moon meets Mercury overnight at 1:38 am EDT, and void Moon begins then. At 4:20 am EDT, the Moon enters Virgo. Mercury follows suit at 9:30 pm EDT. This is a big day of change from fire to earth energy. Whatever today's news, announcement or personal connection and communication, the Virgo Moon can help us plan, ground, and go step by step. Try not to rush or overreact. The Moon aligns with Uranus for ideas about how to proceed or how to pause, whichever is needed.  Tonight, warmth, kindness and gestures of love will be appreciated. Brown is today's color.

Thursday: Virgo Moon aligns with Venus in Cancer. This is family oriented, practical and sometimes romantic too. The Moon is in new phase and goes on to form trines with the 3 planets retrograde in Capricorn. It results in (at least) attempts at problem solving and temporary fixes. Today may be productive, grounded, and focused on organization. Neptune is across from the Moon, pulling some away from tasks to the lakes and beaches or into daydreams.  Void Moon begins at 11:37 pm EDT. Today's color is Blue.

Friday: Libra Moon arrives at 5:16 am EDT and has no major aspects today. This Moon sign is people oriented and social. Find a fair solution, resolve a major difference, or simply observe what's going on and form your own opinions whether you decide to share or act on them, or not. Pink is today's color.

Saturday: The Sun changes signs and Virgo time begins at 11:45 am EDT. Libra Moon forms 4 squares and opposes Mars. This day appears to hold challenge and debate. The challenges may help initiate progress, which isn't always easy. Deal with issues of fairness and justice. Consider that more change is coming as some planets will change direction soon. It's kind of hard to plan right now, for sure. Do the best you can with what you know to be true and what you truly believe is best. This Libra Moon may not simplify decisions. The planets in Capricorn will point out what's not working (they've been on this for a while now), so new and different methods and structures can be put in to place in the future. Growing pains everywhere. Today's color is Lavender.
