August 23-Sep 22 | Ruling Planet: Mercury
Troubled times will always show you who your real friends are. That said you may be surprised by who winds up standing by your side today.
You can't fight people's battles for them, but you can help them on their feet, dust them off, and send them back into the arena.
Venus enters your solar house of finances which means that the fish are jumping thru Oct 24. Spread the nets and you will take in quite a haul.
Don't think about the outcome because it's not a foregone conclusion. Concentrate on your own efforts because that's what matters most now.
Either you step up to the plate or pass. Try stepping up to the plate. Better to give it your best shot then be left wondering what if.
You can expect more than just a few mixed signals with retrograde Mercury conjunct Venus. It's more like a jamming of frequencies!
A friend or acquaintance tries to backpedal on a commitment. Don't let it happen. This person will thank you later.
Mercury moves from combust to cazimi ("in the heart of the Sun"). It's the perfect day to seal a deal, make a killing, or sign on the dotted line.
Weigh recent efforts in the balance. If you feel like you're getting somewhere: continue. If not? Then cut your losses.
Watch it with the under your breath asides. Given today's fiery Moon, any incendiary remark would be like tossing a lit match on to a heap of dry straw.
