Cosmic Insights – August 15, 2022 August 14, 2022

By Veronica G. Hartman

The celestial week of August 15, 2022, begins with the Sun rising up through the spectacular brilliant rays of Leo, illuminating an opportunity to attain mastery over one’s energies with the courage and strength of a lion rushing in where angels fear to tread.  

As the Sun in Leo continues to shine in a powerful planetary yod formation with Pluto retrograde in Capricorn and Neptune retrograde in Pisces, the current cosmic energy is symbolic of the finger of God pointing in a direction of destiny as the Sun in Leo bows to the power of Pluto in Capricorn and Neptune in Pisces to ascend one’s consciousness and release people or ideals that are holding you back from achieving spiritual goals.  

The caveat is that the king of the skies is not inclined to bow to anyone or anything, so the heart of the lion has to be willing to sacrifice the ego for the highest good of the purpose of one’s life, instead of the glory of it.  However, the reward of aligning one’s personal will with the will of a higher power becomes apparent as creative energy invested now from the heart is transformed and elevated to a higher vibration when Pluto in Capricorn moves forward in early October and followed by Neptune moving forward in Pisces in early December of 2022.

The key now is to follow your heart’s creative desire with faith and no attachment to how the desire unfolds and manifests.  

Meanwhile, the Moon is racing through impatient Aries to take actions that open doors of potential financial opportunities relative to building sustainable wealth during the next two years.  The key is to cultivate patience and do the appropriate research regarding the risks and rewards before taking action.

Before the day ends on August 16, the Moon meanders slowly into Taurus with a feeling that it has possibly bitten off more that can be chewed and digested comfortably, regarding relationships and resources.  So perhaps instead of a mad dash to the alter with a long-lasting commitment, perhaps it would be wise to take a step back and reconsider it the timing is right as Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, and Pluto are all retrograde now, with Uranus following on August 24, Mercury going into the shadow on August 20, and Mars entering the shadow of its upcoming retrograde cycle on September 3, 2022.  

Retrograde planetary energy is suggestive of review, regret, reconsidering, redoing, and repenting, so the next few weeks are a time to back away from hasty choices and/or pressure from others to make decisions that require a commitment of financial resources and energy.

The caveat is that Venus is charming its way through Leo now, so it may be difficult to resist the temptation of falling in love at first sight that seems bigger than life!  The key is to absolutely fall in love with another, creative ideas, children, and life, just take the time to weigh the responsibility of the commitment and what is involved that you can’t know at the present time.  Uranus is the unpredictable planetary energy and is currently moving through Taurus, so relationships and resources can have their ups and downs until May of 2026!

The emotional climate shifts significantly on the morning of August 19, as the Moon breezes into chatty Gemini and is ready to share the news or the gossip with anyone who will listen.  That is until Mercury the planetary communication of Gemini shuts down the chatter with a focused attitude and a reminder that there is work to be done.

While the Moon may agree to comply with Mercury, it will no doubt find a way to entertain itself with personal priorities.  So while the Moon plays with others and chats it up online behind the scenes while appearing to work, challenges and attitude adjustments are on the way if the work is not completed to the satisfaction and scrutiny of Mercury in Virgo before the work week is over.  Thus, forced overtime may be on the horizon to cramp or put a monkey wrench in weekend plans!
