This week's Moonscopes - August 2 to August 8
Sunday, Monday, Tuesday(*v/c): the Moon is in Capricorn
In the ancient times, and in some astrological systems today, Saturn rules (is connected to) both the sign Capricorn and the sign Aquarius because only five planets (Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn - ruling two of the twelve signs each) and the Sun and Moon (ruling one sign each) were included in astrological traditions. We will soon experience the second Lunar Eclipse in four weeks. This is an unusual occurrence since they are usually about six months apart, and it's no surprise therefore that this one will be in the sign Aquarius which rules the unusual. It would be a good idea to use Saturn's double energy this week to re-examine and restructure something that could benefit from a transformation.
Tuesday evening, Wednesday(Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse), Thursday: the Moon is in Aquarius
If change is in the air, embrace it fully and move forward. Shaking up the norm is part of the job of Aquarius and a Lunar Eclipse with a conjunction aspect (close, strong connection) from the planet Jupiter, which enjoys doling out generous growth opportunities, will likely present some amazing possibilities between now and New Year's Eve.
Friday, Saturday: the Moon is in Pisces
Retreat from the outside world this weekend and spend some time day-dreaming and using your imagination. The astrological sign Pisces can take us into realms of fantasy and make-believe and often can transcend our thoughts into a very creative place. If you want to be involved in the outside world instead, then consider photography (ruled by Pisces) as an activity this weekend.

Vesta - Be ready and willing to lighten the load for someone.
Chiron - Regeneration comes in unusual forms.
Note: Timeframes for Moon signs, void-of-course periods, and current planet & asteroid positions are noted for Eastern time zone (USA). Please adjust according to your own location. Times are not given if the void-of-course Moon occurs for a very short period or if it occurs during the night (based on Eastern time zone).
* v/c = Void-of-Course - When the Moon is void-of-course, spend time working on projects already in progress, creative endeavors, or self-improvement. Void-of-course simply means that no planets are aspecting the Moon. It's best not to start new projects, sign important agreements, or go shopping when the Moon is void-of-course because the result will probably be unsatisfactory in some way.
** Mercury Retrograde - the speed of the planet slows down considerably. Communications, paperwork, electronics, and traffic can become very mixed-up or delayed during this time. A situation will be in the process of changing, so wait until Mercury is direct to finalize anything. In general, maintain a slower, more cautious pace in daily affairs. Always allow at least two days before (to slow down) and after Mercury retrograde (to resume regular activities).
