Astroview for August 3 – August 9

 

Sun transits Cancer from 16:47 to 23:29°, closely conjunct Saturn. (Governments should focus on the poor, the elderly, manufacturing, and alternatives to oil, gas and coal.)

 

Moon is waxing and transits Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn and into Aquarius. Moon, in Scorpio, is debilitated August 3-5, under the aspect of Rahu, August 3, and Mars, August 4. (Watch your emotions.) The full Moon is in Capricorn, August 9.

 

Mercury transits out of its own sign of Gemini and into Cancer, August 5, closely conjunct Venus, under the aspect of Rahu. (The stock market may do well.)

 

Mars transits Leo, from 13:11 to 17:34°. (Watch out for fires.)

 

Venus transits out of Gemini and into Cancer, August 7, closely conjunct Mercury. (Talk about love.)

 

Jupiter transits Libra from 16:10 to 16:47°. (This is good for the scales of justice.)

Rahu and Ketu transit Pisces and Virgo, from 02:25 to 01:52°, remaining in the 01° range until Oct. 23. Persons, companies, and countries with “rising” signs, or planets in “even” signs, from 1-2°, should be extra careful and do planetary remedies.
