With your sign ruler Mercury actually in your sign as the month begins, you feel on the verge of a new outgoing phase, when you take control of, and reorganize, your lifestyle and trajectory. Yet, early August is also an extremely confusing time, and just as you were beginning to think that certain relationship matters were about to be resolved, everything goes into reverse gear.
In fact it is going to take you at least another month before you are in the position you want to be in, and much of August is characterized by going over old territory and working on private matters in your working life and in the time you spend alone. By mid-August however, things hot up considerably, and you have important information to convey. This is a time when things must dissolve because priorities are changing. Spiritual and creative values are crucial, and they become an essential ingredient to the new lifestyle you are contemplating.
With the new moon falling on Venus in your own sign at the end of August, there is a turning point in your life and you are ready to make a powerful transformation, especially connected with love and children. Although you are generally motivated to help other people, what probably works best at this time is to give higher priority to your own needs.
