By Michele Avanti CAP, EFT-3

(Times specified are Pacific Time)

When the MOON is VOID OF COURSE whatever you begin will not reach fulfillment. Here are the daylight hours this month when the moon is void of course:  Aug. 4 before 9:54 a.m.; Aug. 6 from 2:22 p.m. to 2:50 p.m.; Aug. 7 after 11:46 a.m.; Aug. 8 before 4:23 p.m.; Aug. 10 from 12:10 p.m. to 4:01 p.m.; Aug. 11 after 5:04 p.m.; Aug. 12 before 3:42 p.m.; Aug. 14 from 1:06 p.m. to 5:26 p.m.; Aug. 19 before 7:17 am; Aug. 21 from 6:08 p.m. to 6:37 p.m.; Aug. 24 before 7:11 a.m.; Aug. 26 after 6:59 p.m.; Aug. 29 before 7:35 a.m. and Aug. 31 from 4:13 p.m. to 5:19 p.m.

LUNAR   ACTION

Waning Periods:  Aug. 1-9 and Aug. 24- Sept. 7 begin with the full moon. It's a time of completion. In candle magic, it's known as the time of banishing.

Waxing Periods: Aug. 10-23 begin with the new moon. It's a time of new beginnings and fresh starts. In candle magic it's known as the time of gathering.

NEW MOON: Aug. 9, 8:08 p.m. in Leo. The waxing period focuses on new networking, socializing, hobbies, love, fun and investments.

FULL MOON: Aug. 24, 10:05 a.m. in Pisces. This waning period focuses on completing issues concerning: romance, dreams, sleep, idealism and self-sabotage.

PLANETARY NOTE: Mercury Stations Retrograde Aug. 20, 12:59 p.m. at 19:02 Virgo and stations direct Sept. 12, 4:09 p.m. at 5:23 Virgo.  This is a time of reflection, and it causes us to miss important information in conversations. Avoid signing new contracts, or you can expect to renegotiate. The same goes for purchasing any new communications equipment, as well as cars. However this is the perfect time to renegotiate contracts, leases, agreements with neighbors, siblings and also to repair all kinds of communication equipment and cars. It is also a great time to reconnect with old ideas, projects, and people. If you began searching for communication equipment or vehicles, the period from Aug. 24 to Sept. 12, is good for finally concluding the process.
