Conjuction of Venus and the New Moon

Today and tomorrow, August 14 and 15, Venus will pass almost-directly between Earth and the Sun-an event astronomers call "an inferior conjunction of Venus." The night side of Venus is now facing Earth, with only a sliver of its illuminated dayside visible from our side of the conjunction. The new Moon in the sign of Leo is today, August 14, exact at 10:53:22 am Eastern Time. To see a beautiful picture of Venus, go here: http://spaceweather.com.

What does this mean for you?

Venus is retrograde in the sign of Leo, joining the Sun, Moon and Mars, energizing Leo to act on their projects. Venus adds to the Leo generous nature, and softens them. Because Venus is retrograde the relationship it makes to your natal planets will repeat after Venus goes direct September 6.

Aquarius may experience what they perceive as self-centered relationships out of their control. Taurus and Scorpio experience situations dealing with control of finances. Aries and Sagittarius enjoy good relationships and projects. Gemini and Libra have the opportunity for happy interaction with creative people and social events. Cancer and Virgo are neutral; Capricorn and Pisces adjust to minor interruptions.

Jupiter traveled into the sign of Virgo on August 11, and it does seem like the weather has cooled a little, at least here on the East Coast of America.
