The New Moon and solar eclipse on 11 August will bring the concepts of finances and security into focus. This isn’t so much about what you earn and how you earn it, but rather what that means to you in terms of your personal security and the structures that you’ve built for yourself in order to feel safe. Whether you get money from your parents or your employer, ask yourself if you think you’re worth it. If not, work on your #self-love!
Aside from checking in on your financial health, also do a quick scan to ask if your physical and emotional requirements are being met. Are you eating well and exercising enough?
All too often you can be caught up in supporting the growth of others that you forget to think about your own needs! Rather than wait for someone else to do it, set the intention at this New Moon to make a few small changes that are self-nurturing.
Meanwhile, the Full Moon and lunar eclipse on 26 August, is challenging you to widen your perspective and adventure beyond your comfort zone. There’s no doubt that faith will be involved, but you don’t need to stray too far in order to experience something new. August 2018 is great time for an amazing holiday.
This month there is pleasure to be found in beautifying your environment. Creating a peaceful haven – be it your bedroom or your whole house – to come home to doesn’t need to be a huge project, but it can make a world of difference to your work-life balance. With Venus in this part of your chart for much of the month, entertaining friends and family could feel more special.
If possible, hold off on any major purchases or signing important contracts until after August 19. Of course, there will be some things that simply can’t be delayed. If this is the case, ensure that your read all the fine print before signing – and ensure that all warranties are valid.
