Insight From Stellar Influences
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.

How to Use This Column: Because both your sun and moon sign are important, please read the sections for both of them. As you do, note that each section is broken into Insight & Picture. Insight: offers a key to what the planets may be trying to teach you during this period. Ponder it, and your consciousness should expand. Picture: is a broad picture of what may occur in your world during this period in time.

Aries: 1-9:  Insight: Conversations hold the key to friendships. Picture: Communication with old friends offers unique insights to help complete a project. 10-23: Insight: Caveat Diem!

Taurus: 1-9: Insight: Honor the eyes of another; through them the world is unique. Picture: While completing a project, a friend's progressive ideas challenge you to over-state your opinions. Best to listen and stay open to the possibilities.  10-23: Insight: When you desire to manifest something new, make space for it by letting go of the old. Picture: You are challenged to be creative. See through the eyes of a child and to let go of a treasured possession.

Picture: New childlike people irritate you with their lack of manners, irresponsible behavior, and egocentric behavior.

            Leo,  you're the children and the leaders of the zodiac.

On your good side, you're filled with optimism, creativity, courage, playfulness, confidence and a loving, sensitive attitude. On the dark side, you're vain, boastful, arrogant, dictatorial, extravagant, intolerant, pompous, overbearing, a show-off and the too-trusting fool.
            Your desire to be superior, in the limelight, the recognized leader drives you. You need to be recognized as a leader at work. While your mate must be your biggest fan. Respect is very important to you.  You're happiest  in  creative ventures which are filled with excitement and action.                                                                                          
            You excel in all the creative arts from acting to debate. Your love of children can be satiated by being a teacher, puppet master, theatre owner or coach. You're a natural actor, totally at home in the limelight and too often you're the ham.

Your creative juices also flow in writing the material from poetry to screenplays and in making anything that shines from goldsmith to costume designer. Lastly your love of money and risk taking is fulfilled as a gambler or stockbroker.

Astrology is constantly fit for anticipating the future for anybody, regardless of whether it is a man, nation or the world itself, yet celestial prophets can some of the time foresee the future and occasions precisely and now and again can even neglect to foresee it effectively.
