In this webinar, you’ll learn some of the history and myth associated about the 8th House. We’ll examine birth charts that underpin the importance of this House and how it can be easily overlooked and avoided.
As the forces or order, Saturn, are pitted against chaotic Uranus, we may see upheavals, protests or riots in order the challenge and change established systems.
Being of the earth element and ruled by Mercury, the Virgo energy is about thinking and doing. One of my favourite personal philosophies is the power of “decide and do.” You get the opportunity to do this with planets in Virgo.
Despite being a new month, the first week of August is a bit like July’s hangover. As the Sun and Mercury push through Leo, they activate the opposition to Saturn and the square from Uranus.
Here are a few of my top aspects for the month of August.
Shortly after my 43rd birthday and entering an 8th House profection year, I had a strong urge to do some form of ancestral work. One Saturday afternoon (Saturn’s day) under a Cancer Moon, I felt the need to go through a whole bunch of family memorabilia I decided I didn’t want to keep anymore.
As the Sun pauses and changes direction, you too may like to take time to pause and reflect on the past six months since the December solstice or, around the time Jupiter and Saturn moved into Aquarius and formed their Great Conjunction.
If you have fixed angles or planets in your birth chart, start choosing change or else, the change chooses you and then you have no choice. It may be helpful to take small meaningful steps, rather than taking a giant leap into the unknown. You could start with the smallest things like simply changing your mind about something.
Rather than over – relying on facts and data, lean into magic and possibility. Stretch your mind into what’s possible rather than what’s probable. Allow Mercury to guide your mind and soul into the mysteries and magic that busyness and distraction of everyday life doesn’t make room for.
There’s potential this month for some major destabilisation to occur. With Mercury about to station retrograde under the effects of a lunar eclipse that just happened on May 26, I encourage you to give some thought to what changes you may need to make.
