The Calm Before The Storm
August 31 – 2
Feelings flow freely with a Full Moon in dreamy Pisces setting the tone on Friday morning. This lunar opposition to the Sun in realistic Virgo represents a potential conflict between emotions and obligations. Make the time to take care of business so that it doesn’t get in the way when you’re ready to play. Imaginative Pisces can spur romantic feelings that flourish in a fantasy world. Getting away from ordinary activities to tap into the magic of music, art, and nature help us let go of stress, drop resentment or anger, and connect in uncomplicated ways. The Moon’s dynamic square with enthusiastic Jupiter adds optimism to Friday evening, encouraging adventurous behavior.
We can float through Saturday on the wings of imagination before a late night lunar entry into fiery Aries kicks into gear. We’re out of the clouds and into a world of immediate and strong reactions. This may be exciting, but it’s unlikely to be calm or peaceful. Breaking ground by connecting with someone new or pushing the social envelop has its risks.
Sunday’s especially complex with the Moon’s stressful midday aspects to provocative Pluto and rebellious Uranus pushing us to extremes. Freedom needs rise along with restlessness that’s best met by exploring different kinds of people and experiences
