Release Your Illusions With This Week’s Full Moon
The astrology of August 31 — September 6
Reeling from last week’s strikes against racial injustice from our friends in the professional sports realm, we find ourselves continuing our weekend conversations and feelings about the violence we’re experiencing and witnessing as a collective. Documentation is key as we prepare for Mercury and Venus to change signs at the end of the week.
On Monday, the Sun (in Virgo) chats with Chiron (retrograde in Aries) and seeks to help us implement the techniques, standards, and remedies we know could cure us. This transit asks us to tweak the habits that make us feel unhealthy and less like our optimal selves. Monday night could leave us feeling a bit wired and weary. Do your best to take care of yourself that evening, especially if you’re planning to start something new on Tuesday the first.
Speaking of Tuesday, let’s dive into Mercury (in Virgo) giving a boost to Pluto (retrograde in Capricorn). This transit helps us to solve and research deeper issues and problems. Especially the issues related to our government, big business, and the working class. This is a time for us to do serious, profound communication and run the numbers. Being practical and clear on what’s being said and meant is what’s called for.
