8/26 Daily Astrology

Moon in Sagittarius

-trine Venus in Leo (5:26 am)
-square Mercury in Virgo (6:42 pm)

Sun in Virgo opposite Saturn in Pisces
Virgo Mars trine Pluto in Capricorn

In the morning, the moon travels the last degrees of Sagittarius, forming a t-square as it exacts a square to Neptune in Pisces in the wee hours and then Mars in Virgo a few hours later. The intensity of our emotional drive toward expressing our experiential wisdom, combined with the fog that Neptune tends to conceal things with is creating some misfires where our physical drive and direction is concerned. It may be better to take the morning off of practical matters, because the Moon moves into Capricorn late morning.  Way more fitting for efficient planning and execution.

The Cappy Moon will trine the Sun in Virgo in the afternoon just before it makes the sextile to Saturn in Pisces, easing the friction that’s been increasing between these two. It gets substantially easier to choose a fitting direction and commit to a pragmatic plan of action.

Mars is at the critical degree of Virgo, in a waning trine to Pluto. This can be a last-ditch effort to improve our practical lives that has a pretty heavy impact. If you can think of something to do today that could improve your health, routines, or work/life balance, you’ll be surprised at how far a small consistent step will bring you. So, if you haven’t already, start now!
