Theme: Finding emotional stability

Today and tomorrow are more challenging days emotionally so when the challenges do come be prepared as best you can. With the moon close to Pluto and Mars  our emotional responses  are especially tied to deep habits and fears. So try to separate what is yours and what is not before responding. Or be like a log as Shantideva recommends and don’t move! With the Sun in Leo, Venus in Libra and Jupiter in good aspect there are also many positive forces to draw upon today. My life is lived, and I have played the part that Fortune gave.~Virgil

Theme: Environmental sacred awareness

There is a sense of being alone today so finding things that connect you to the greater whole, such as the natural environment, are helpful. There is more emphasis today on exploring the interior of your mind. Find a beautiful spot and rest for a moment or more.  New ways of communicating beckon. Take advantage of learning opportunities offered to you at this time. To attain knowledge, add things everyday. To attain wisdom, remove things every day.~Lao Tzu

Theme: Easing of relationships and communications

Today there is a softening  in relationships along with generally feeling more understood. There is a welcoming harmony and lightness. Nevertheless there is a tendency to be overly forthright with mixed results so continue to be mindful in your speech. Be light on your feet. Over the next few days here may be a sudden change of direction in an area of life that will benefit from doing things differently. As an architect you design for the present, with an awareness of the past, for a future which essentially unknown.~Norman Foster

Theme: A day to enjoy

There is a light-heartedness in the air that is beneficial for both your mind and heart. It’s a good day to practice relaxation, read a good book, and undertake activities that expand and engage your mind. As Winnie the Pooh says, ‘People say nothing’s impossible, but I do nothing everyday’. It’s remains a time to dream big – but as with all big plans the details are important in the big picture of things. It’s a good time, especially in the second half of the day, to engage in a variety of activities and projects: be adventurous.

There continues to be a lot of energy for long-term restructuring. ‘Without training our hearts to love altruistically, we will never recognize love. The door of heart opens from within.’~Jetsunma Ahkon Norbu Lhamo

Theme: Mindful communication

Mercury goes direct on the 20th of August so you have a few more days of opportunity to practice your communication skills and forgive miscommunication!  As Kahlil Gibran wrote: ‘Between what is said and not meant, and what is meant and not said, most of love is lost.’ With the Moon in challenging aspect to Pluto it’s a day to draw on your inner resources and skillfully navigate your own and others compulsions. It’s a call to self-honesty. Environmental awareness and healing the earth is a theme at this time.

Theme: The gentle diplomat

With the Moon in Libra next to the planet of diplomacy – Venus – it is a good day to work out agreements, but keep in mind the need to be disciplined in your activity. Expect some resistance as you work towards your goals today which is fueled by your expectations that things should happen more quickly than is realistically possible. The period of intense subjectivity is ending. Diplomacy is the art of letting someone else have your way.~Daniele Vare

There is a desire to be of service and emotionally share with others. This can be a deep experience. You can gain insight into your inner workings including your relationship with your mother or the mothering person in your life. If you realize the self in your innermost consciousness, it will appear in its purity. This is the womb of wonder, which is not the realm of those who live only by reason.~Lankavatara Sutra

Today there is a grounded emotional energy between feelings and the capacity to deal with change, building and restructuring. There is harmony between the three times – past, present and future.
