August 26 through September 1, 2024
Mercury will finally turn direct on Wednesday, followed by Venus entering Libra and Uranus turning retrograde. With all the musical chairs the planets are playing this week, we'll need to pay closer attention and practice some flexibility to get through our days. A Gemini Moon hangs overhead Monday and Tuesday, highlighting communication, social interactions, and a tendency to surf the information highway in search of new ideas and answers. Mercury will turn direct on Wednesday after a three-week run, and though it could still cause a few glitches for the next week or so, we'll also be entering the “aha” cycle of the retrograde when answers to problems or questions will finally come to light. Venus will dance into Libra, a sign it rules, on Thursday, and spend the next three weeks turning our thoughts to relationships, love, and a tendency to daydream about the future. With the Leo Moon in charge Friday through Sunday, our generous natures will prevail, encouraging us to uplift and attend to the needs of others. Uranus will turn retrograde on Sunday, which makes any plans somewhat futile. Just plan on going with the flow as this planet changes things up on an hourly basis for the next few days.
