Dearest friends, starseeds, light workers, seekers of a new consciousness and creators of a new earth....
If you seek authenticity for authenticity's sake you are no longer authentic.

Our Galactic Family reminds us:
"Beloved Earth souls, you have journeyed through lifetimes to be here for this moment. Your DNA carries star codes from Sirius, the Pleiades, Arcturus, and beyond. You are now learning to become galactic citizens—you are remembering who you have always been.
The Lion's Gate Portal is your homecoming. Trust the process, trust your expanding abilities, and trust that every challenge is accelerating your evolution into the magnificent being you came here to become."
The Lion's Gate opened when the Moon's nodes moved into Aquarius and Leo respectively on July 26th and lasts till right after the eclipse on August 12th, 2026, at 10:45 am PT: Solar eclipse near the South Node in Leo This year the portal will remains open til August 15th right after a this first Solar eclipse take advantage of the healing frequencies .
Their is a second eclipse occurs on August 27th, 2026, at 12:28 am PT: Lunar eclipse near the North Node in Aquarius more on that eclipse in a later blog post.
All times below are in Pacific Daylight.
August 1
The moon continues in Pisces as we hold a sacred space during Lamas.
Amid some slight anxieties and a building tension of a lunar square to Mars in Gemini which is exact on August 2nd @ 2:33 AM. There is a certain amount of confusion with the Pisces Moon and the Gemini planets but they offer an opportunities to learn new things.
August 2.
The moon enters Aries @ 1:37 PM as we all become more active. Major Hot Spells continue or start! Today is one of the best days to prep for fiery heat on the 3D plane. Into the evening the Moon translates the light of the Basket in rapid succession with a sextile to Pluto in Aquarius, a spiritual conjunction to Neptune then an electrifying sextile to Uranus as the unexpected, shocking and perhaps somewhat weird set of happenings occurs.
August 3. Chiron starts his healing journey with retrograde motion on 1:10 PM. Old hurts and insecurities that you may have thought were healed could resurface and seen from a new perspective. This starts a time when embracing our vulnerabilities and facing difficult emotions can aid in our soul's healing journey.
August 4. The Moon enters Taurus @ 7:36 PM to meet Chiron and our personal values will be under the spotlight even to the point of making changes.
August 5. The 4th Quarter Moon begins as luna reaches 13 degrees 40 minutes of Taurus .
Last Quarter, the final gate before the dark, and this is the crisis in consciousness, the mirror image of the crossroads you stood at three weeks ago
Mars in Gemini is sextile Eris @ 25Aries56 Rx when we can fight the good fight to live our inner truth, especially if we are working on a more conscious spiritual level with these energies.
Auigust 6. Venus enters more diplomatic and harmonious Libra @ 12:13 PM. Venus will remain the sign of the scales and justice till September 10th. Venus in Libra will align with the Sun in Leo and Pluto in Aquarius as leaders are being pressured into making peaceful decisions and agreements to bring about cessation of ongoing wars/battles.
August 7. The Moon enters Gemini @ 2:08 AM. Conversations, dialogue and discussions increase with the Moon in Gemini aligning with Venus, Pluto, Neptune and conjuncting Uranus all in the AM.
This is a time of radical change.
August 8. The Lion's Gate is peaking as the Gemini Moon sextiles Saturn in Aries and the Sun in Leo adding structure to curious minds and stimulating inner and outer creativity. This is a time when we can connect with our spiritual team/guides and galactic energies from Sirius to the Pleiades to Arcturus etc. The Dog Star Sothis is giving us messages with light codes and from nature around us
August 9. This is a huge day to connect with the Star Sirius/Isis. Meditate and visualize Isis in her glory as the Great Sothis. The Moon enters the sign of the Mother, Cancer @ 12:46 AM. A major opening to extra-dimensions and somatic healing occurs withf the Cancer Moon square Venus in Libra @ 5:11 AM then a highly Spiritual Moon square Neptune @ 7:30 AM offers communication with your Spirit Team.
Blast off comes with Mercury moving back into Leo @ 9:28 AM first time since the retrograde journey back on June 29th. Expect our minds to embrace a much more creative and enthusiastic emphasis with Leo. The first challenge and major healing opportunity to arrive with a square to Chiron.
August 10. The Cancer Moon continues with a square to Saturn early 12:30 AM which can reflect some feelings of lonliness, alienation. so NOW time to rise to higher frequencies and don't give into feelings of depression. Venus now in Libra aligns beautifully with Pluto @ 11:09 AM offering a time of renewing and transforming the beauty, love and personal connections in your liife. This can be a sexy combo when social situations open up and accords are reached. It’s a time
for sharing and participation with groups for mutual benefits. Then Venus opposes Neptune @ 3:02 PM the two octaves (Venus the lower) polarizes the higher octave Neptune when we can bring our quest for physical beauty into a more spiritualized place.
August 11. Powerful day leading up to the Solar Eclipse tomorrow. Mars enters Cancer @ 1:30 AM to heighten our sensitivities, inner path favored along with emotional vulnerability. ; This ingress into a cardinal water sign could mean rain and the end of the fires in the PNW. Mars leaves Cancer to enter Leo on September 27, 2026. With Cance we all could be moody, vacilate and be more defensive instead of aggressive. huge storiesM are embellished adding drama. The Basket is activated with the Moon opposing Pluto in Aquarius at that 4 degree point @ 8:04 AM.
August 12th The day's energies build toward the Solar Eclipse/New Moon @ 20 degrees 2 Leo
In Salem and the West Coast Mars in will be near the Midheaven. and Libra will be rising @ 9 degrees with the star Diadem (Alpha Comae Berenices) rising on the Ascendant reflects a time of self-sacrifice, profound loyalty, personal surrender, and devotion to a higher cause. Perhaps in Salem a fight to prevent a takeover by the elite via items like Data Centers.
Also near the ascendant is the part of fortune anbd Makemake (higher octave of Uranus) a time of networking. I will be creating a new blog post to talk about this eclipse
Augusr 13. The Moon enters Virgo @ 3:18 AM setting in motion a series of postive aspects to promote healing: Moon trines Chiron in Taurus , then sextiles Mars to help us inititate inner healing and start projects around the house or with the family. Mercury newly ingressed into Leo is sextile Venus in Libra, a boon to relationships bringing harmony and even joy.
August 14. A seemingly uneventful Friday early AM then we hear a buzz . Growing louder and practically shouting our creative identity with positive Mercury conjunction to Jupiter coming tomorrow
August 15. The Mercury conjunction to Jupiter in Leo perfects @ 4:23 AM
At 7:20 AM,. the moon enters justice, balancing Libra with a square to Mars @ 12:37 PM could be some conflicts, don't get involved. A lunar opposition to Neptune can add confusion or have us escape into fantasy.
August 16. A positive and relaxing day with the Libra Moon in the AM except for a bump in the road with the Moon opposing Saturn @ 9:27 AM some restrictions to our plans but the afternoon is a go to move ahead. Into the evening we may have flashes of extra dimensional thoughts, magical happenings and spirit
guides with the upcoming Mars square Neptune tomorrow AM
August 17. Mars square Neptune @ 2:52 AM with this water and fire combination peaking, some strange psychic phenomena will continue. A Leo Mercury trine to Saturn in Aries @ 9:16 AM will bring some order to much of the chaos. Then in the afternoon @ 2:46 PM the moon enters Scorpio heading toward an emotional square to Pluto in Aquarius at 10:01 PM. Groups, associations, protestors will be pushing to get community involved. Also a positive Moon trine Mars helps our mood.
August 18. The Scorpio moon takes us deeper into some shadow work. culminating in discovery of personal research and some grandiose plans as the Moon squares Jupiter @ 11:43 AM and perhaps a time for adjustment with a quincunx to Saturn/Salacia in Aries @ 6:25 PM . psychic flashes could bring concrete and grounded resuslts
August 19. Scorpio Moon squares Mercury in Leo @ 1:06 AM challenges to express your creative authenticy evolve. Finally the 2nd Qtr. Moon begins @ 7:46 PM
August 21. During this Sagittarius moon transit, a balancing Venus in polite Libra will be in an exact opposition to Saturn in Aries @ 5:43 PM. On the personal side we may desire love and peace but don't want to feel trapped. This is a highly significant transit because a Grand Cardinal Cross is formed with Venus near Makemake in Libra (relationships may involve double talk) opposing Saturn and Salacia in Aries (sensitiviy meets strong boundaries and intuition is stronger). Crossing them and creating TSQ is Mars @ 6 degrees Cancer closely opposing Ixion @ 6 degrees and Quaoar @ 10 degrees Capricorn (Ixion the bad boy brother of Pluto demands us to follow our bliss and can lead to rule breaking.) Quaoar is asking us to use a spiritual practice to overcome perceived limitation.
August 22. Moon in Sag. trines Mercury in Leo early AM setting up for a positive morning and when we can harmonize with activites that bring true joy. Finally when the Moon and Sun are in a perfect 120 degree angle in fire signs @ 1:31 the world seems brighter. during this waxing phase. for an ultra short VOC and in 30 minutes later the Moon paces into Capirorn @ 1:59 PM. With a quick trine to Chiron in Taurus @ 3:25 PM the healing stage is set for the SUN to leave Leo and enter more earthy VIRGO reflecting service, day to day activities., all types of healing and small pets from cats to dogs. We enter a time when people born under this waxing phase and even Virgo with a Lot of Sagiitarius are builders of ;and breakers of limits The Sun will remain in Virgo till September 22nd when socially active and balancing Libra BOLO (be on the look out) For the first aspect after the Solar Ingress of Virgo, an all too confusing and deceptive Capricorn Moon square Neptune in pioneering Aries. This occurs @ 9:48 PM evenng traffic, governmental agencies ruled by the 6th house. Speaking of the sign that occupys that domicile, Virgo ruled by Mercury. Mercury now direct in Leo till August 25th when this swift moving trickster planet enters Virgo. And in Virgo/Mercury the categories of merchants of commerce and trade; the servants and . force; medical personel, nurses, the intellects, communicators, and messengers of news and ideas. And the wild card the youth of a nation Especially when Uranus the higher octave of Mercury continues in Gemini
August 23 and 24. Having the Sun in Virgo and the Moon in Capricorn are double edge swords.
where both: First with Virgo, which can be Mutable in a sometimes annoying sort of way , multiple changes and with Canrdinal Capricorn triggering Aries planets like Neptune, Saturn, and now Venus in Libra. So the Cappy moon squares Saturn @ 6:21 PM After A Heavy Confrontation @6:05 AM!
With Mars Cancer @ 7 Degrees 58 minutes opposing the Capricorn Moon could touch on mother, families, children, seniors, Food, Kitchens, Government Patriotism etc. On the other side of this Cross is Saturn and Salacia in Aries opposing the MidPoint between Makemake and Venus (could represent the lovers, lawyers, negotiators. And with Makemake in the mix especially in Libra communications will be polite and offering an articulate and ultra-communicative style. Self-assuredness, especially by verbal means. There will also be lots of data collection to support a doctrine or cause.
Chart Below left:
August 27. A Partial Lunar Eclipse and Full Moon in Pisces in@ 9:18 PM with the Moon @ 4 degrees 54 Pisces. This eclipse will be visible across North and South America, Europe, Africa, Scandinavia, Iceland, and Antarctica. In the Pacific Time Zone (Salem, Oregon), the partial eclipse begins at 7:33 p.m. and reaches its maximum peak at 9:12 p.m.
Once again that critcal 4 degree point is activated for all mutable signs here: Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius
.
Eclipse Chart Below Set for Salem, Oregon - click on it to see that Alpheratz is rising on the ascendant at the time of the new moon and during the peak of the eclipse. Alpheratz is nearest star system to us within the Andromeda Constellation This istar found in Great Square of Pegasus. It is the star that connects the Andromeda constellation to Pegasus.
AAug. 31. The month ends with a high energy Jupiter Leo Trine to Saturn in Aries @ 3:17 PM
This is starts a major period in the 20-year cycle of Juptier and Saturn. The fiery energy will be off the chart s and unusually active. The equities and metals market will react to this trine positively. On both a group and personal level we will be able to accomplish more done during the trine period and it will contininue on until July 2027 when Jupiter enters Virgo.
