Cancer August 2024

It is an exciting and promising time this August. Health and work plans will change. So be prepared.  Help will come from friends and friends of friends, and a new financial agreement you enter into will be very positive.

You may feel most comfortable with old loved ones, rather than new interested ones, but do give the new ones a chance.

Have compassion towards those who are drawn to you. New spirits in all forms will be attracted to you.

If attached, you may want to apologize to your partner, or simply say what’s on your mind. It’s a pretty good bet that you will offend without realizing it.

Now, back to money, because money is particularly important this August.

You have a wealth of planetary activity in your second house. In here you have: the golden Sun, a new silvery Moon August 4, brilliant Mercury, beauty queen Venus, and the asteroid Vesta, revealing the fire that truly ignites your soul even in the most difficult times.

All that your second house rules:

Finances

Your personal resources

What you own

Security

Self-worth

Future planning

The value of everything

Self-value

Luxurious surroundings

Determining

Manifesting

With the extra burdens at work and in your finances placed on you recently so also come new opportunities and a new exciting world for you to enter. I predict a joining of resources may split, or be divided. You may already be glimpsing a different life for yourself.

After being promised and promised it would get better, well the time has finally come. Mercury retrograde, from August 5 to August 28, really the whole of August, affects both your second financial house and your third communications house. Thus, as Mercury is the speech and words planet, the retrograde may cause delays in asking for what you need the most – more money. Try your best, and you will be surprised.

Remember that it is Mercury retrograde soon, August 5 to 28 (with the Mercury retrograde shadow, really the whole month of August), and that everyone will be going through it. Be patient and compassionate.

Yours will be in back and forth between your second and third houses August 5 – August 28. And to help you and everyone get through it, and to provide an idea of what a Mercury retrograde IS, for those of you who still don’t know, I’m including a free Mercury Retro Protection Mitten and Guide!

Back to regular scheduled programming.

With your back against the wall, you’ve had to define who you are, and what you believe in, and what you want, what you will and will not tolerate, perhaps more so recently than any other time.

Now you know. And if in doubt, TRUST that you do.

You do. Even if you just had to retreat from a recent excursion, scurrying as a crab does back to your safe comfy home. A few bumps occur when you first step outside into the sunlight…Think of connecting with intimates. With someone you care about, rather than a room full of witty repartee.

In career, you are still torn up about where you are headed. If you’re living in the U.S. – itself a double Cancer – this being torn up agony is compounded by the crazy events all around you. Are you in a safe place? Make sure that you are.

The full Moon – which holds sway over you like no other sign in the zodiac – is coming up August 19.

Moonlight is very powerful for you. It shines into your eighth house of sex and merging. Deep connections with others. You find yourself wanting to be close to someone again.

And with feisty, sexy Mars and Jupiter, planet of abundance, both in your twelfth house of the unconscious, your imagination will be in overdrive. Be careful to distinguish between fantasy and reality, particularly when it comes to sex and your vision of a person who is important to you.

The real work for you to do now is emotional. To HEAL your eighth house – once and forever. The eighth house is your connections with others.

This is what you need to do to help it along. It’s all in the area of your eighth house.

Your eighth house rules:

Intimacy

Shared resources and joined monies

Merging with your soul mate – sex, sex, sex!

Sharing your deepest truths

Letting go of the past

Shedding an old persona

Clearing out outdated clothes, remnants of a past self

Healing

Regenerating

Recovering your unconscious

Summoning your psychic powers

Take extra time for your lover or partner. Give more of yourself.

In some extreme cases, the Aquarius full Moon on August 19 could cause an ending around this time. Decide if this is what you really want to do. Your actions now are life-defining. Short trips are the answer. And your words. Your words are magic. So don’t let someone’s freak-out concern you August 19, under this Aquarius full Moon. Let them be. You concentrate on your own self-expression. Don’t worry about anything else. Your excellent work rewards will be triple whammy.

If you decide to do this, you will find yourself going forward in your work or business, all shiny and new. By mid-September, your life path will become clear to you. You will know what you must do. And with whom. Trust your instincts.
