The Astrosage – August
August 10th sees the newing of the faire Damsel of the Night… and as the Sun and Moon conjunct, inner union is complete. The clever chela sees perfection in the heavens and gives an offering of 3 bowls of rice to the Heavenly Court. Humility and reverence brings immediate reward! On the 13th of August Lord Uranus reenters the House of the Fishes; a cooling breeze arrives from the North and calm spreads across the land. The Winged One, mercurial ruler of communication and monetary exchange, retreats on the 20th, going retrograde at 19 degrees of Virgo. This activity will have immediate impact and be pervasive for 3 weeks. The House of the Virgin is exacting and will cause the seeker to be extremely attentive to order and detail… those who have made ready will advance with ease! Woe to the slovenly soul, past inequities will return for diligence due! On August 21st the Ringed One will be exactly in square to Pluto; Vulcan and Cronus resolve all their strife. This is the emergence of the awaited Grace promised by Jove. Release and return, celebration and the dispensing of alms!!! Those who have persevered will find new inner reward… the chela is given a new golden temple bowl!
Mighty Sol, giver of warmth and life, enters the House of the Virgin on the 22nd of August. Harvest Home begins and the bounty of Mother Earth is offered to her progeny. The seeker who has tended Life’s Garden will see copious reward.
On August 24th Sol and The Goddess reflect in opposition to each other with the fulling of the Moon in the House of the Fishes… Pisces. This is a full moon that embraces the mystical nature of Neptune in Aquarius and Chiron as well. The Wounded Healer gains illumination as to the nature of suffering and grace is offered to those who seek it. For 3 days before and after this full moon a journal of dreams would bring the Pilgrim closer to that which is sought!
As we see, the month of August has treasure in store for the seeker… rituals of purification and humble appreciation will bring manifest reward. These shifts are the beginning of a new vision for those who have committed to transformation and change!
