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."

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
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.
August 9. This is a huge day to connect with the Star Sirius/Isis. 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. Then Venus opposes Neptune @ 3:02 PM
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 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 27. A Partial Lunar Eclipse and Full Moon in Pisces @ 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

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.
