Chrissie Blaze’s August 2010 Aries Horoscope

Projects or events that you began a month or two ago draw to a close as Jupiter in your sign now aligns with Saturn in Libra and Pluto in Capricorn. This is the long-awaited cardinal alignment that I call The Cardinal Renaissance. Whatever occurs at this time and afterwards, new opportunities are definitely on the horizon for Aries in the professional or personal arena. It is not, however, the time to launch anything brand new. You also may find that an existing business or relationship may draw to a close, signaling the beginning of a better, more liberating phase in your life. You have certainly worked long and hard for it. Your social life is quite active during the first three weeks of the month with the Sun in Leo, and especially around the time of the New Moon in Leo on August 9. This is a really good time to plan a social event for you, your friends and your children. Also, if you’re single and seeking romance, this could be the time.  On August 20, Mercury plays its tricks once again, turning retrograde for the next three weeks. Since it is in Virgo, its especially important to check details and confirm all instructions, details and dates.  On August 24, there is a Full Moon in Pisces, encouraging you to relax and take time out. You are usually a fast-paced, active person who enjoys being busy but now is a great time for reflection, meditation and spiritual practices.

As a Fixed sign, you don’t particularly like change and the past few months you may have been feeling unsettled, particularly in the work arena. I am afraid this may continue as Pluto and Jupiter add their power to the Saturn/Uranus alignment. You may be taking time away from work or may be seeking alternative employment. Be kind to yourself right now if you are feeling stressed — because there are also good things. It could be that you find yourself thinking about continuing your education or furthering your training in some way and this would be an excellent thing to do. If you are thinking of a new career field, I would advise you to seek advice and perhaps don’t commit to a lengthy, costly education when perhaps a short-term course of training would fit the bill. Be careful once Mercury goes retrograde on August 20. If you have read my book on Mercury Retrograde, you will know the scene and also how best to use this potentially crazy and frustrating time. Since it is in Virgo, it is especially important to check details and confirm all instructions, details and dates. Venus is highlighting your social area, so you will find opportunities for fun and games this month but you may also be feeling a little unsure about a relationship.  Just wait until Mercury turns direct in September before you make any definite decisions. The Full Moon is on August 24 in Pisces, highlighting your friends and any groups or organizations to which you belong. This is a great time to network and get together with your friends; opportunities for advancement could arise.

Chrissie Blaze’s August 2010 Gemini Horoscope

Things have been building up over the past few months but expect a decision to be made in August when the planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Pluto are all activated. Whenever the planets conjoin in this way, external events occur and tension is often felt. However, remember the influence of the planets is always beneficial but sometimes it is our interpretation and use of these influences that is the problem! You are a flexible person so go with the flow of change that this is beginning and you will find that gradually the tension you have been feeling will release. However, you may find that a break or vacation really fits the bill now. Aim for a trip away near the August 9 New Moon in Leo. You need a chance to refresh your mind, body and spirit. On August 20, Mercury turns retrograde as it does several times each year. Since it is in Virgo, it is especially important to check details and confirm all instructions, details and dates.  Also, this is affecting the home and family sector of your chart so be careful what you say and don’t commit to definite decisions with family members. It is better to leave serious decisions until mid-September or deal with issues earlier in the month.  Your career sector looks bright around the Full Moon on August 24. The following two weeks are a productive time for you career-wise so do all you can to reinforce and improve your position. Set your sights high!

Your home life is very important to you and you may have been feeling a little unsettled in this area over the past few months. This feeling is now coming to a peak as Jupiter, Uranus, Saturn and Pluto align bringing possible changes that will develop in the first few weeks of this month. You may want to check your home and ensure you have adequate coverage. You may also be thinking of moving home or redecorating or changing your current home in some way. This is actually an excellent time, with Venus travelling through this sector of your chart to clean out closets and generally get your place in shape. The New Moon on August 9 in Leo is bringing the potential for extra cash or income and it’s a good time to evaluate your finances, budget and spending around now. The above-mentioned four-planet alignment could also be affecting your job or career and there could be a potential move of home due to a career change. Another possibility is change in your family in some way, or a change in your inner attitudes to life after a few months of challenges. You will feel stronger and more resolved. Mercury turns retrograde in Virgo on August 20 as it does several times each year. Since it is in the detail-oriented sign of Virgo, it is especially important to check details and confirm all instructions, details and dates.  Since it is in your area of communication it is especially important to clarify what you say and promise to others so that misunderstandings can be avoided. The Full Moon on August 24 may have you dreaming about far and distant places. This is a great time to take a trip abroad or plan a vacation.

This is your month and you are in the limelight, which is where you are meant to be! The Sun is in Leo and the New Moon on August 9 is assisting you to create your personal goals for the next year ahead.  Recent events are reaching a climax as an alignment of four planets, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Pluto cause situations to unfold rapidly and probably in an unexpected way.  This alignment does involve travel, communication and learning. You may find yourself having to take a trip out of town for work or family, or you may find yourself considering higher education.  If you decide to do this it will really pay off for you in the future. If you have to deal with investment or financial matters or paying bills, do this prior to August 20^th when Mercury turns retrograde affecting your finances. Don’t worry, it is not all bad. You can make the most of this time by organizing your finances. Since it is in Virgo, it is especially important to check details and confirm all instructions, details and dates. On August 24, the Full Moon in Pisces adds power to your partner’s income but there could also be unexpected expenses in August. Overall, this is a good month with Venus in Libra from August 6 helping you to gain support. Open your heart and tread confidently towards your future. The next year and more should be a positive time for you when you are able to leave problems of the past behind you. Remember when you set your goals and plans to make these as noble as possible. Always keep to the high, noble path and then and only then will you, majestic Leo, find true fulfillment.

Your finances are affected this month and this in turn may be affecting your self-worth and value system, as these are intertwined. The areas of money in your chart, the solar Second and Eighth Houses are clashing with Pluto and this could mean reduced income or increased expenses. Do everything you can to avoid debt and budget accordingly. On a deeper level, the Cosmos is urging you to decide where to invest your energy. Some projects – and relationships – may be coming to an end and winding down. Don’t think it is all bad. It is a great time to clean house, literally and figuratively, and rethink your life and priorities. It could be that you have been investing your money and time unwisely and now is the time to analyze and reset your priorities. This is especially true when your ruling planet, Mercury, turns retrograde on August 20 for three weeks in your own sign of Virgo. Since it is in your own Sun sign of Virgo, which is very detail-oriented, it is important to check details and confirm all instructions, details and dates, as well as being a great time to check out your health and anything directly related to you personally. The New Moon in Leo on August 9 is encouraging you to take a vacation, relax, reflect and spend time alone. It is a good time for you to pick up your commitment to your prayers, meditation and spiritual practices. Uranus returns to Pisces for a while on August 13, prompting changes and restricting in relationships. You may decide to spend more time with loved ones around this time. You will be making major, long term decisions around August 21 with the difficult square of Saturn and Pluto.

Chrissie Blaze’s August 2010 Libra Horoscope

Last month was quite stressful and you may have experienced tension in relationships which you are beginning to resolve. August brings a lot of contrasts and, as a Libran, you are used to looking at opposing viewpoints and taking the middle road. You are being called to do this now. You will feel the influence of jovial Jupiter and serious Saturn. One minute you feel you can fly and take on the world, and the next minute you find others are trying to clip your wings. This is connected to the Jupiter-Saturn opposition which is exact on August 16 but you will feel is push and pull all month. You are also pretty driven this month and can accomplish a lot. You receive a big boost on August 6 when lovely Venus enters your sign. Really use this beneficent energy to be charming, helpful and a great team-player, which is really who you are. Friends are especially helpful around August 9 when the New Moon is in Leo and this is a good time to plan some get-togethers or parties with friends. Mercury turns retrograde on August 20 but this one can actually be to your advantage enhancing your intuition and enabling you to deal well with difficult people. Since it is in Virgo, it is especially important to check details and confirm all instructions, details and dates. With Uranus return to Pisces on August 13 and the Full Moon there on August 24, you may experience some changes and improvements in your work status.

Chrissie Blaze’s August 2010 Scorpio Horoscope

With planets in Aries and Libra clashing with Pluto in Capricorn, you should be especially cautious and careful about what you say to others. Pluto is one of your ruling planets and it is at the focal point of a major alignment leading to inner shifts that can affect long-term events. You may be feeling a conflict between your need for money and your values. Stay out of trouble, which you sometimes draw to yourself, and avoid difficult or controlling people if you can, or others could undermine you in some way. You may be feeling frustrated in your work environment but focus on the big picture because this is a passing phase. Things should become clearer around August 16. Saturn squeezes Pluto on August 21, pushing you to your limits but you are stronger than that. Carefully consider consequences before taking action in your career. You are actually going through a process of transformation. Mercury turns retrograde on August 20 so beware of faulty communication. Since it is in Virgo, it is especially important to check details and confirm all instructions, details and dates. I know it doesn’t sound much fun this month but the good news is that things are moving ahead after the stalemates earlier in the year. You would rather have action than none at all. Also, the month ends with a beneficial Full Moon on August 24 bringing a touch of magic to romance and leisure time.

With several planets clashing with Pluto in Capricorn, you can expect recent issues to reach a peak. There may be cash or income issues involved so be cautious and don’t allow yourself to be pressured into getting a loan. Your ruler, Jupiter, is motivating you to prove yourself with an outstanding performance, and you can deliver this. However, with Saturn’s influence, it’s showing that you must also be willing to put in the work before your spectacular performance pays off. It’s time to be protective of your security, financial and otherwise.  The New Moon is in Leo on August 9 is urging you towards travel, excitement and all those truly Sagittarian adventures. You may find yourself planning a vacation or disappearing into the Sunset to faraway places – at least in your mind if not physically. The Full Moon on August 24 is in Pisces and with Uranus retrograding back into Pisces on August 13, you will be feeling spontaneous!  Mercury turns retrograde on August 20 so beware of faulty communication.

The alignment of four planets this month triggers events connected to your career and home life. You may find yourself thinking about or being faced with career change and/or relocation. The two may be connected. With Pluto slowly traversing your sign and changing things from the bottom up, it’s a good time to take an honest and fresh look at your life, including whether you really want to continue the career you are in, and where you want to live. You may experience some mix-ups when Mercury goes retrograde on August 20. Since it is in Virgo, it is especially important to check details and confirm all instructions, details and dates.

Chrissie Blaze’s August 2010 Aquarius Horoscope

All I can say this month, with a four planetary alignment causing some stress in your chart, is to keep a low profile this month apart from around August 9 when the New Moon in Leo is fortunate for social activities. Don’t get too caught up with difficult people and try to avoid travel unless you really have to.  However, don’t think it’s all bad because it is not. This is a great month to be a student and seeker of knowledge. From this perspective it is an exciting time, as you can gain fresh insights, intuitions and revelations if you put your mind to it. It is also a good time for writing and any type of research. Financial matters are promising at the end of the month with the Full Moon on August 24 bringing unexpected income. However, do be wary of overspending during Mercury Retrograde from August 20. Although it’s a good time to organize your investments and review budgets, you should also keep on track with budgets or things can go a little haywire. Since it is in Virgo, it is especially important to check details and confirm all instructions, details and dates. This is a potentially life-changing month for you and you may be faced with decisions. However, bear in mind that this is part of a long-lasting transition that began at the end of 2009 when Saturn first squared Pluto and will continue until March 2011. It is good to spend time getting perspective on the direction of your life so put aside time for reflection, meditation and listen to your intuition.

Chrissie Blaze’s August 2010 Pisces Horoscope

You could experience a change in income with the four planetary alignment reaching its peak this month causing unexpected difficulties such as credit issues. There could be unexpected financial issues with a friend or group with which you are involved. It is not a good time for you to be involved with loans unless you can avoid it and avoid letting other people use your credit. The New Moon on August 9 is a positive time if you are unemployed and seeking work. It favors job hunting and the next two months are positive for career-related matters. If you already have a job, you could be offered a promotion or new responsibilities at work. Around mid-month, it’s a high energy time for you when the Sun joins Uranus on March 17. It’s a good time to break away from old attitudes but be careful that you don’t go overboard by lashing out at others, especially authority figures in your life. This is compounded when Mercury goes retrograde on August 20 so beware of faulty communication. Since it is in Virgo, it is especially important to check details and confirm all instructions, details and dates. The Full Moon on August 24 shines in your sign, adding a dash of charm and this is an excellent time for networking, as other people are inclined to assist you now.
