🔭 Major Astrological Events This Week
1. Mercury Retrograde in Virgo (Ongoing)
Mercury is still retrograding in meticulous Virgo, slowing down our thought processes and communication. Expect delays in emails, contracts, and scheduling. This is an ideal time for reviewing and refining your work — not rushing into anything new.
2. Full Moon in Aquarius – August 12
This lunation shines a light on individuality, social justice, and group dynamics. The Aquarius Full Moon encourages you to break free from outdated structures and express your authentic self, especially in community settings.
3. Venus Trine Neptune – August 15
Romantic and creative vibes peak midweek! With Venus (love) harmonizing with Neptune (dreams), this is a beautiful time for artistic inspiration and soul-level connection. Watch for rose-colored glasses in new relationships, though.
