Virgo needs a little extra TLC right now. The Sun and Mercury are both in your twelfth house of rest and relaxation. Time to destress and make time for yourself. Virgo can get burned out helping other people. Now is the time to treat yourself as well as you treat others. With Mercury retrograde in your twelfth house of health, an old health issue may resurface. Mercury will turn direct on August 11th and things may be more clear once this happens. The Sun is here in the twelfth house as well and since the Sun is often symbolic of our energy and drive, Virgo may be feeling a bit more tired and worn out. On the 23rd the Sun emerges from behind the curtain of the twelfth and you will notice you have more energy and are wanting to take a nap as often. Both Saturn and Neptune sit together in your eighth house of all things financial.
Both these planets are in the sign of Aries and you are thinking about investments and the long-term financial situation. Saturn is often about restriction and in the eighth there can be some situation that cuts into your income. Or there can be some extra bills that have you a bit worried about future earnings. But Neptune is here as well and Neptune is often about our dreams and ideals. You may be thinking of how to use your artistic abilities to earn a living. This is a powerful combo and will be especially strong this month. September to December Saturn slips back into Pisces and the combination is not as strong. But it will help prepare you for next year when these two come together again but actually much stronger.
For most of August Venus is in Cancer and your eleventh house. This area of the chart is all about the future. You are thinking of what you want your future to be and this can be very exciting. This house is the one that rules astrology and so you may be more interested in astrology and maybe even want a reading or buy an astrology book. Friends and groups show up now and in a very positive way. Venus has you really enjoying your friends and some of them may offer you some kind of help. Jupiter is here as well and will bring in new opportunities.
