This August I predict a joining of resources may split, or be divided. A bittersweet parting. You’re already glimpsing a different life for yourself. Godspeed!
Oh, dear Crab, you are coming out of your old shell this August. The time has finally come.
Take it slowly though. Your eyes will need to adjust to the brightness after so much time inside.
Emotional hardship will do that to you. Make you feel as if you’re living by yourself, in the shadows. Pressing down on your very identity, asking you to define yourself more strongly.
Well, now you can. And talk about strong…there’s no one more enduring than you, dear one.
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. Think of connecting with intimates. With someone you care about, rather than a room full of repartee.
Moonlight is very powerful for you. The Moon is your natural ruler. A new Leo Moon on Thursday, July 28, brings about a new financial stage for you, one with more money. Much now is about money with so much happening in your second financial house.
In this cash house – also ruling self-esteem – you have: Life-saving Sun, brilliant Mercury, self-nurturing Ceres, a friendly new Leo Moon July 28 and on the same day, July 28, planet of love and beauty Venus enters here also, spreading her blessings into your finances like beautiful flower petals.
And on Thursday, August 8, a full Aquarius Moon shines into your eighth house of sex and merging. Deep connections with others. You find yourself wanting to be close to someone again.
The only real work for you to do now is emotional. To HEAL your eighth house – once and forever. The eighth house rules your connections with others. Saturn retrograde in here makes this your greatest challenge – and lesson.
This is what you must do to help it along. It’s all in the area of your eighth house.
Your eighth house rules:
Intimacy
Trust
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Clearing out outdated clothes, remnants of a past self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
In some extreme cases, there could be an ending around this time. Decide if this is what you really want to do. Your actions now are life-defining.
With this ending, you need to come clean with someone you do not feel right about. Someone honestly doesn’t know what’s going on and needs to hear it from you. No confrontation, just communication. Before August 11 be careful with your temper, cool the conflicts, and act neighborly. You could seriously blow it, so thus the warning. Do not panic. It will only backfire and ruin your efforts.
Keeping your sanity is driving you nuts at the moment. If you could just…if everyone could just…RELAX more.
You know why everyone’s so on EDGE? Rewind the video of your life. Over and over. What really happened. Rewind as many times as you need. You must catch every detail. Can’t miss, nor skip, a beat.
Write it down and record it, if it helps. You are here to make the record straight.
What you’ve done. What you can do better. How you can make your life better.
Wise old Saturn, your toughest lesson, is retrograde in your eighth merging house, remember. Whatever you do, you’re going to make it right this time.
You deserve so much happiness, sweet Crab, and August is all about giving it to you. Mid-August is intense for you and partners and new arrangements. Much of which is financial. Which is very hot in your life right now.
All of this support for your finances as well as your self-worth, and for how you value yourself. How much you ask for yourself. How much you ask to be paid. What is owed to you. Your possessions and belongings. All important now. You can ask for the world. And you will get it!
Go for it, Cancer. You deserve it. You have worked so incredibly hard this past year – on every single level – and you deserve reward, but you also deserve some breaks and a time of peace, with no more conflict, no more endless worry. And, again my friend, you will get it.
Now, back to money, because money is particularly important this month.
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
Short trips are the answer. And your words. Your words are magic. So don’t let someone’s freak-out concern you. Let them be. You concentrate on your own self-expression. Don’t worry about anything else. Your excellent work rewards will be triple whammy.
It is an exciting and promising time this August. Home and plans will change. So be prepared. You can draw anyone to your side, 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.
Lucky Jupiter and healing Chiron, both in retrograde, are gracing your tenth most public house. Your profession and public reputation are protected. Chiron is where it hurts, and Jupiter is in there to help you heal that hurt. A change in how you earn your income / how you are funded can only be good for you going forward.
Well done, my friend.

In the mute August afternoon
They trembled to some undertune
Of music in the silver air;
Great pleasure was it to be there
Till green turned duskier and the moon
Coloured the corn-sheaves like gold hair. – August by Algernon Charles Swinburne.
