Astro Daily: August 6, 2019

The Moon moves into Scorpio and it’s all about intimacy and trust over the next couple of days. Scorpio is a sign that likes to get to the psychological heart of things, even if it means being uncomfortable. With Mars in Leo, we may be feeling a little touchy, too.

In contrast to Scorpio’s moody energies, the Sun in Leo is coming up to a trine to Jupiter in Sagittarius, an aspect that has a reputation for wanting to travel, explore, and be adventurous. There’s a tendency in astrology to paint Jupiter as a planet of luck and good fortune and we may very well see new opportunities open up this week that feel lucky or fortunate, but Jupiter also has a tendency to bring more of something.

I talked more about Jupiter in astrology, both it’s positive and negative facets, in my weekly check in on Facebook Live yesterday. If you missed the video, you can watch the replay on my Empowering Astrology YouTube channel.

That said, Jupiter is a planet that opens us up to the world around us, helping us to think about life in broader strokes — what’s our truth and what does it all mean. It’s a very philosophically driven planet, so we’re looking at our life this week and trying to make sense of things. Do we still have faith?
