A curious and restless Gemini Moon starts off our week, activating Mars and Jupiter, also in Gemini. With the energies of the Virgo Sun, we’ve got things to do, responsibilities to manage, and duties to perform. There’s a push to get organized.
Mars and Jupiter made waves a couple of weeks ago, making a conjunction on August 14. A seed was planted for a new vision, for new pathways for communication, learning, and direction. The Moon may be setting things in motion.
We’ve got a few things on the horizon this week. Namely the end of Mercury Retrograde on Wednesday, August 28. As the “ruler” of Virgo and Virgo Season, Mercury turning direct is a shift in the energies. Whatever we’ve been contemplating and examining now needs action. Mercury Retrograde is the theory, Mercury Direct is the practical.
Then there’s Uranus Retrograde on September 1 at 27 Taurus, an energy that will infuse our week with the energies of awakening, surprise, revelation, and transformation. We’re beginning to come to the end of Uranus’s time in Taurus. While Uranus doesn’t fully leave Taurus until April 2026, we’re in the final chapters of a story that began way back in May 2018, March 2019. (Read Uranus in Taurus: Sign by Sign.)
Finally, Pluto returns to Capricorn on September 1 for a final tour of a sign that it first entered in 2008. Which means that we’re nearing the end of another long story, although one that began sixteen years ago. Pluto and Capricorn has been a deep and sometimes dark look at our relationship with structure, power, and the material world. The consciousness of a particular area of our lives has been significantly altered during this period of time. (Read Pluto in Capricorn: Sign by Sign.)
