Weekly Astrology for August 10-16, 2025
I am back after a pause from getting Covid for two plus weeks. As I am feeling more myself and my brain does not feel like Jello, I am giving the weekly astrology … a chance. Thank you for your patience. This was my first experience with Covid. I guess I had been lucky up to this point.
I am sure all of us are happy to hear that the Mercury retrograde is coming to an end this week. That will allow what has felt blocked to begin to ease and movement finally happen. As we are in the time of Leo, it is important to follow your heart and to find a place for your energies to reclaim focus and flow.
August 10th, Moon goes into Pisces
This a particularly sensitive placement of the Moon. Expect feelings to bubble up and many things to surface that range from pleasant to less so. Do your best to move with those feelings that arise and allow them to show you what is attempting to find resolution and healing. Healing does not happen through suppression but only through loving acceptance, understanding, and inclusion. The places that have defined and shaped us the most are those places that tested us and put us through things that shattered our old reality and showed us that what we might have experienced as unpleasant … can and will with acceptance and love … become a superpower.
With Pluto and Mars in a trine, it seems easier to make the best of our circumstances. We feel more power and drive to get things done. We feel that spark of purpose coming back into an alignment with us that has the intention to give back and that is unafraid of what lies ahead. What is clear is that we will need to have new tools to overcome the current obstacles. We will need to come at the problem in a very new and ruthless way. It is time to take out the trash. It is really starting to stink.
August 11th, Mercury comes out of retrograde and Saturn in Aries will sextile to Uranus in Gemini
How do most of us spell relief? This Mercury coming out of retrograde will help. Yes, it is in Leo and the fires that have been smoldering and going to reignite and begin to fire us up to leap into new places of courage and power. The intention to hold is to be authentic no matter what. It is critical to go for truth over the toxicity that those in power are forcing us to normalize. The good news is that this is America, and we are not going to be silenced under any conditions. This retrograde made us look at the places and ways that we hide the truth from ourselves and contort our soul into fitting into the ways that make us less of a threat.
However, the threats are real and as this Mercury comes out of retrograde, we are unwilling to walk a fine line that was promised to give us acceptance and inclusion. Instead, we have to look to where our heart is pointing us towards our north star. It matters not if that points in the direction of the telepathic dysfunction. It does matter if it points you in the place where you are proud of your actions and choices because those choices will give you the ability to break the karmic hold that fear tries to hold over your broken heart. It is time to face the fact that even though your heart has been broken, we now know that our celestial and spiritual self is now shining brightly through those cracks. And the only fear left inside is to do nothing in the face of others suffering. This is a day to celebrate your courage and to love all that you are, all that you have been, and grab hold to all that you know you are yet to become.
The only important caveat to remember is that we need to not come to any grand conclusions right now. There are too many pieces of this puzzle in motion. Our clarity is not yet there though we are excited by the new impetus and movement.
Saturn and Uranus have both leaped into new signs and the importance of four outer planets all shifting signs is not a small event. We are beginning a new very long chapter of our lives and while it feels deeply personal … collectively it is even bigger. This sexile is an ignition point. A critical spark that is going to illuminate something vastly different and essential for where we are going to be required to go. While Saturn is currently retrograde, we are being asked to reflect on the definition of leadership and to see if what is unfolding is a legacy that will give our world good things or terrible ones. Uranus in Gemini will allow us to see and communicate in ways that are going to liberate our own self-autonomy. It is time to create a new world around our own terms, and not blindly accept the terms of others. We seek to reclaim our own story and use that clarity to repel the lies and projections of others.
We are in a moment when you can make choices that will build up your character and allow the hardships to hone you into a powerful force of nature. Or you can collapse and allow yourself to continue to become the victim to your circumstances. I would choose the former over the latter. Use the difficulties to awaken your soul and to allow you to become better.
August 12th, Moon moves into Aries and Venus will conjunct to Jupiter in Cancer
Today, is a good day. When the loving planets of this solar system come together, there is a desire to move from a place of core faith and belief in oneself. We move out of the places of despair and into those places of optimism and seek to become the hub of safety and truth for others. Remember, that the stories you share from an open and honest place are going to have great impact on others. Your life experiences have value. It is time to move from a place where you listen with your heart, trust your spiritual core that knows that love and kindness is the only clear path through all this hate and to take charge of our health and well-being so that we are not dependent on the opinions of idiots. Do not allow the fears and hate that others instill in this world to become a toxin that will poison your veins and dismantle the goodness you have inside.
The Moon in Aries is going to be aggressive and it intends to push back. What are you wanting to push back against? What is clear is that we do have personal responsibilities that we are going to have to address. As they arise, they can feel draining and exhausting. Just know that effect will be temporary. This Moon will point out what our internal and external engines really need from us at this time. Add to this day, the Moon will oppose to Mars, and we may need to step back from something that is quite terrifying and instead move into some action that is simpler and more practical. Tackle the small things today. Leave those enormous problems for later.
August 14th, Moon moves into Ta**us
A Ta**us Moon asks for comfort and more care. It wants do have those things that are simple and yet essentially fulfilling to our very human self. Know that everyone is suffering in their own way. Small acts of kindness will really make a difference. Lend a helping hand because you never know when the shoe will be on the other foot and you will be the one in the need for some kindness and care yourself.
August 16th, Moon moves into Gemini
Happy Birthday to me. While I am celebrating this day with family and friends on the 20th, I am happy to see that the Moon in Gemini will correspond to my natal Moon in Gemini. I expect it to be a happy day for myself and pleasant engagements with others. I wish the same for all of you.
