Astro Daily: August 18, 2022

If we’re feeling a little indulgent, it’s because the Taurus Moon activates a luxurious trine between Venus and Jupiter. The heart wants what it wants, especially if it’s something that helps us revel in the pleasures of earthly living and material desires.

The Taurus Moon loves to taste and touch and graze through life. It’s the sign of food and sensuality, money and resource. With Venus in Leo, this is a pairing that wants the good life. However you can, even if it’s in small ways, make time for pleasure today.

Mars is also coming to the end of its time in Taurus, a placement that made Mars more security conscious and demanding of stability and support. Come August 20, Mars arrives in Gemini, a sign it will spend the next eight months in, an unusual amount of time. More on that in the coming days.

If you are in AUSTRALIA or NZ, this forecast applies approximately for August 19.
