Weekly Forecast: August 1 - 7, 2021

Category: Forecasts and Horoscopes Saturday, 31 July 2021 Written by Kelly M. Beard Views: 595

8/1 ~ Mercury (communication & self-expression) ~conjunct~ Sun (core essential Self & Source energy):   This energy will compel you to express yourself on many levels. Communication will be a focus, just make sure it is reciprocated. What I mean is two-way communication and exchange of ideas. As you initiate this new cycle of self-expression, you will have access to some powerful energy that can (and probably will) help you make a difference or an impression on others (if you need to). This is a good time to travel if possible too. However, if not physically, then mentally (through visualization) or within your own area (locally), because if you explore a new direction, you are more likely to discover something new. This energy opens you up to a download of more information than usual so pay attention! If you are solid and organized, you may even gain some much-deserved recognition from others that you have earned through your individual efforts.

8/1 ~ Mercury (ideas, thoughts & concepts) ~oppose~ Saturn (reality & physical limitations):   Here the opposition is between your thoughts and your reality or current responsibilities. It’s also about your mental and physical getting integrated on some level. Are you working too hard, causing mental or physical exhaustion? Are you too stuck in idea-mode, delaying actions and actual commitments? It’s time to take a realistic look at your life to see where you could change your mind and your reality would follow. You may find yourself asking what your truth and purpose really are or you may be concerned about how to provide for your very basic, essential needs and why you have been constantly limited in that way. Everything can seem bleak and depressing but really it is just the Universe’s way of getting your attention and helping you to focus on what really matters. You’re being pushed to think of new ways to function on a practical level. You may feel like leaving a mate or partner at this time, but it’s not really the best time to actually act on this impulse. Wait until this energy passes and give your Self some time to clear that negative thinking that is actually coloring your judgment at this time. If you feel this way in another week or two then begin to plan releasing this person in the healthiest, most compassionate possible way so as not to create more karma that YOU will have to deal with later. What this energy is good for is giving you the ability to see what is wrong and connect to a positive, realistic way of creating change for the better. If you are still unsure about what direction to take, this energy also supports consulting a person you respect, usually someone older and/or more experienced, for guidance and support.

8/2 ~ Sun (core essential Self) ~oppose~ Saturn (physical limits & definition of reality):    This is an annual process of development. The Sun makes it personal and about you the individual. Saturn helps move your timeline along and build the literal aspects of life, the basics of providing for yourself (food, shelter etc) and your own personal limitations. What renewed aspect of Self got activated about 6-months ago and how do you want that to fully develop over the next 6-months? This is a potent midpoint, the most powerful course-correcting time in any cycle, this one being an annual meeting between Sun & Saturn, a check-point between you and your responsibilities. Each year, you evolve, some years more consciously than others so this is a good time to check-in with your own personal definitions of what you are or are no longer responsible for. Often, this energy activates a push-pull between who you are and who you want to be; between what you want to do and what you have to do. My age-old advice is to: do what you gotta do so you can do what you wanna do. And it while it may not be the easiest path, it’s usually worth it for the peace of mind that it brings. You may swing between extremes of fulfilling all your obligations to the neglect of your own Truth & Purpose -or- neglecting your obligations and doing whatever you choose, which only means those obligations will be there when you get to them and they will have most likely increased by the time you do. Balance is the key! Practice, there is no perfection and it’s time to practice handling business before pleasure.

8/3 ~ Venus (love, finances & relationships) ~trine~ Uranus (freedom & liberation):
This energy is likely to bring a little excitement into your life, one way or another. It is a good time to do something different, try something new & consciously put your Self in situations where you have to improvise or think on your feet. We are in times of breaking old patterns and re-setting them in more positive, effective ways. You can still live your true values & priorities, but something has changed within. This blessing from the Cosmos allows you to align with more personal authenticity, which in turn is infused into all that you love & treasure. Relationships will have an unusual energy to them as well. An established relationship may get shaken up or sparkle with some extra “spice” or a new relationship begun under this influence may be stimulating & unusual but probably short-lived too. This is not a bad thing! It’s actually perfect for improvising and experimenting with new ideas & expressions to see what you actually respond to, what your Heart aligns with and responds to – all helps you lock-in on your current Truth & Purpose on a whole new level. Use this energy to soak up some good energy & rare wisdom from those who are unique, those who do things differently and live life to the fullest!

8/3 ~ Mercury (lower mind & ideas) ~square~ Uranus (Higher Mind & awakening):
This energy challenges you to expand your mind or consciousness in a way, pushing you to think differently and respond to information in new ways. Uranus brings sudden ah-ha moments, personal awareness and radical new ideas, which is great for you adventurous souls who thrive on change and new ideas. However, if you are personally attached to your routine and things ‘going as planned’, then this energy can cause aggravation and tax your nervous system because things will seem sudden (even though it is more likely that they have already been brewing under the surface for some time now). You will have to adjust and be more open & mentally flexible than usual. You may not be able to control the excessive mental activity or information-overload coming in, but hopefully you can direct it a bit. It’s good to activate or clean your personal filters by taking some time in Nature to process things at your own pace and generally clear your head. This can be a very inspiring & creative time, so try to tune into that, while keeping in mind that anything you begin or get into, may require a review later so that you can check over the details of your revelations (or creations). You’re just cracking the surface, this is all about the revelation or awakening, you will eventually have to figure out the logistics or effective actions necessary to bring your ideas into form.

8/6 ~ Sun (source & essential Self) ~square~ Uranus (awakening & radical shift):
As with any Uranus activation, this one disrupts the normal flow in order to facilitate a ‘break to realign’ moment. While sometimes disruptive & challenging, the ultimate result is refreshing in some way. Consider the energy that thickens, gathering for a severe thunderstorm, then releasing buckets of rain, for hours & hours, you sleep deeply and awaken to a bright sunny morning with birds chirping unusually loud outside your window. Got the visual? ; -)) This activation is the necessary challenge that gets your attention that something better is available, if you’re willing to improvise and think on your feet. If you’ve been unusually restricted in some way, you may feel restless. Rather than being reactive to the unexpected shift (within or without), it’s best to take a pause for the cause, step back and try to gain some perspective. Remember to be present, too far in the past can be depressing and too far into the future, and you cause your Self unnecessary anxiety. Breathe, be under the sky, invite clarity about the next step and trust your gut. This energy, while sometimes uncomfortable and often sudden, is very necessary to disrupt any illusions/delusions you may be holding onto at this time. It’s time to express your Self in new ways so the old ways naturally stop working in order to get your attention.

One of the magical things about this Sacred Season is that we get to anchor something in the HEART, we get to release some aspect of Self PERMANENTLY and we get to prepare for the Virgo Pre-Harvest Process which so depends on you being centered in your own heart and clear in your own mind. This LEO Gate of Power falls almost exactly on the LEO New Moon which is also kicking off a whole new 18-month *Rhythm of Creation* for us all as individuals.

I will share the value of the Season, the energetic support for the next 6-weeks and some specific, rare Activations that we all have access to at this powerful Portal in Time. We will also cover the four different kinds of Self-Love/Self-Worth that Leo/Aquarius/Taurus/Scorpio represent.

Cinnamon Rose of PriestessWarriorLover.com is going to share her intuitive downloads for this Sacred Season and walk us through a Reboot & Reconnection of both the physical body and the energetic being that we are as Spirits having a human experience. Cinnamon is known for channeling an amazing combination of meditation and shamanic journey – whatever you call it, she will assist us all in being able to go forward and EMBODY & EXPRESS our brand New Story that reflects the New Truth & Purpose being birthed at this time through each one of us!

Join Us!! Be part of the unique *alchemical mix* of energies setting the Season in motion!! You can offer your energies to the Community and Mother Earth or you can come and simply receive for your Individual Self. LEO time is ALL ABOUT YOU!

This *Sacred Season* is About …
Assessments & Preservation of Life
Giving Gratitude for Abundance
Making Offerings to Ensure Flow (Life)
Releasing Regrets & Facilitating Closure
Pre-Harvest: Assessments & Preparations
Creating Containers for Your Creative Ideas
Activating Fiery Creativity ~ (Re) New Projects
Deepening Dedication to What Is Working (Alive)
Assessing the Worth of Preserving & Cultivating New Life

This period is all about *PRESERVING* what is growing strong, solid, useful and nourishing … while releasing density, weight and excess to be composted into something more useful in the season to come. It’s a time of gratitude and celebration, in anticipation of the Fall Equinox Season of Harvest. Some call this the Pre-Harvest. You can get a jump-start on assessing the year if you’ve completed your “clearing & releasing” process. If not, this is the final *purge* in preparation for the Harvest Season.

The Leo/Virgo combination guides this Cross Quarter ~ Lammas ~ Gate of Power and Portal that happens every year during the first week of Aug and takes us all the way to Libra time & Fall Equinox. For the next 6-weeks, the energies support you reconnecting with your own Heart (Leo), which leads to and through a purification & healing (Virgo) of sorts because you are now embodying & expressing a whole New You!! It’s time to position your Self for an expanded perspective. Explore your options with fresh eyes! Allow your instincts to guide you on your Path and Trust the Divine Feminine within and around you to *contain, nurture and protect* all life, now and always. Honor that which sustains us and always aim your magical arrow at only the most precious dreams, your deepest heart’s desire.
