Stop, look and listen! The cosmos is anything but calm and serene as a void lunar cycle in Cancer begins at 1:22AM PDT and continues in force until 11:06AM PDT. Meanwhile, while the Moon is in its uncertainty zone, Venus opposes Pluto (2:12AM PDT), Mars unites with Saturn at 25 degrees of Libra (3:36AM PDT), and the Sun forms an abrasive, 135-degree tie with revolutionary Uranus (6:28AM PDT). Any one of these three aspects on a given day would be a cause for concern, but to have all three happening within four hours during a void lunar cycle is to raise the ante considerably. Plus — while the Moon eagerly leaves void status in Cancer by entering fiery, warmhearted Leo (11:06AM PDT), the latter hours are no walk in the park since the Sun squares Juno (10:16PM PDT) and Venus squares Uranus (11:49PM PDT). The universe is clearly suggesting that it is wise to refrain from romantic entanglements, money-making schemes, signing important papers or working on legal matters. An attempt to placate human souls arrives in the form of an inspirational, 72-degree link from Mars to Pluto (6:49PM PDT), the monthly Moon-Mercury communication-enhancing union (8:25PM PDT), and a flowing trine of 120-degrees from Venus to Chiron in water signs (9:29PM PDT). Seek solace and protection in these three nurturing alignments, but be sensible and on alert for the entire 24-hour time-period since anything can happen and probably will since circumstances beyond your personal control are in the cat-bird seat.
Your Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, August 14
We are traversing some very tricky territory now as the Moon visits supersensitive Cancer, reminding us that home is where the heart is. A growing undercurrent of anxiety may raise control issues in our relationships as the noble Leo Sun stresses the explosive long-lasting Uranus-Pluto square. We wish that we could kick back and relax, but we must express our feelings gently as they surface or they could turn to anger or resentment.
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
You can finally slow down today — a relatively unusual event — yet you may still resist easing up on the gas. You have been racing at high speed for a while and could be in danger of depleting your fuel. Take the time to gather resources and recharge your batteries while you have the opportunity. Nevertheless, be ready to swing into action later in the day instead of passively waiting for something to happen.
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)
A maternal feeling toward someone you love may sweep over you today, even if you aren’t parentally-inclined. Nurturing others can be healing, yet you must make the effort to do it. But don’t take care of anyone just so you can feel good about yourself. Practicing unconditional love has the greatest impact on everyone involved.
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)
Love begins at home by learning how to value your heart’s desires. You’re often quick to say the right thing at the right time so you receive the approval of others. But now it’s time to stop trying to elicit the response you want from anyone else and follow your dreams. Taking care of yourself feels good; ironically, it also can set the tone to deepen the connection between you and someone special.
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)
Although the Moon’s visit to moody Cancer stirs your emotions, you have some serious self-restraint issues coming to light today. You may feel as if you’re on-edge, but cannot easily express the things you want to share. Keep in mind that you’re probably being harder on yourself than is necessary. Stay aware of the facts, but save your critical judgments for another day.
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)
Your fantasy life is rich now with the Moon illuminating your 12th House of Imagination. Nevertheless, keep one foot anchored in the real world so you don’t drop off into the realm of dreams. You have significant feelings that you need to unfold in the privacy of your own mind, because letting others know doesn’t seem quite right yet. There’s no need to worry; trust your intuition and you’ll know when to open up.
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)
Sometimes when you’re participating in a group function you are hesitant to say what’s on your mind. You don’t have a problem talking to your partner or your boss in private; however, it’s difficult to express yourself in a public meeting. Gather your courage to speak up today. You don’t need to disclose everything, but rest assured that every word you share will be taken seriously.
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)
You want to do what’s right, but something is preventing you from taking action now. You have been observing your feelings as they change, but haven’t said anything yet because you don’t want to upset the status quo. However, today you can share what’s been bugging you as long as you do so with sensitivity. Show how much you care in a way that allows you to get away with saying more and offending less.
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
You might be especially concerned about your future now. Even your fantasies may be related to your career or community goals rather than your personal life. It’s tempting to get emotionally worked up about issues of social injustice. Your opinions could be so strong that your passionate perspective explodes to the surface. Speak your mind, but hold back just enough so your message isn’t lost in the drama of the moment.
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
Your unexpressed feelings may be the most significant ones now, especially if your idealism attracts unrealistic dreams. Actually, the subtle signals you’re receiving might not even be on the radar of perception. Don’t question where your ideas are coming from. Just listen carefully, even if you’re not sure what you are listening to. Write down everything you hear today; you will understand more in due time.
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
It’s not all about you today; in fact, it’s about everyone else. At least that’s how it seems. But someone isn’t telling you everything, and the unexpressed feelings can rebound to create a tense situation. If this is what’s happening, look to your own issues and acknowledge your contribution to the current events. You can change your outer world most effectively by transforming your inner perspective.
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)
You could be a bit anxious today. Your dilemma stems from your desire for love and acceptance. Of course, nearly everyone wants to feel needed, but you complicate matters by attempting to avoid emotional interdependence. There is no one-size-fits-all answer; instead of seeking the right solution, try to be comfortable with all sides of an issue. Others will be more appreciative when you are flexible enough to recognize their points of view, too.
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
Your feelings are growing more serious day by day. However, it doesn’t mean you are antisocial, even if you need some time to yourself now. To the contrary, this is an ideal day to pursue a romantic interest or to use your creativity to make something real. Reach out to enjoy the moment with someone special.
Daily Cosmic Calendar for August 14th
Moody vibrations enter the scene fairly early today as the Moon continues its monthly transit through watery, nostalgic Cancer and the Sun makes an abrasive, 135-degree connection with underworld-ruling Pluto (8:42AM PDT). By itself, this is a reminder to hedge your bets as a business entrepreneur or investor. However, because the Sun will make the same aspect with radical-change agent Uranus tomorrow morning, we have a situation where the solar life-force is about to energize one of the two midpoints in the zodiac that hold Uranus/Pluto vibrations. This means that shocking news, surprises, and deeply transformative energy-dynamics are ready to inundate humanity. When psychic storm warnings are posted, be receptive and don’t think you are completely immune from physical, emotional and mental exhaustion. Ceres forming a contra-parallel with Pluto (7:58PM PDT) is one more ingredient that can lead to the celestial-seasonings pot boiling over. Waiting in the wings tomorrow is not only a Sun-Uranus battle, but Venus opposing Pluto and squaring Uranus while Mars and Saturn form their first conjunction since July 31, 2010. Ouch! The fear factor is about to get hot and heavy as Tuesday morphs into Wednesday.
