August is About What We Want...Now
Monthly Space Weather - August 2023
If this is your first time reading the Monthly Space Weather Forecast, here’s an overview of what this is and how to use it + other astrological resources if you are so inclined.
August asks us to take a deep dive into what we desire. Most of us don’t understand what we want even though we think we do. There are many reasons for this, including societal conditioning telling us not to want, confusion between what we want and what others want us to want, and distraction by micro desires instead of deeper needs.
Venus retrograde requires us to examine what we want and why we want it; she also gives us permission to change what we want to better reflect who we are in this moment. On top of all the reasons why we usually don’t know what we want, we also don’t take the time to tend to and monitor how our desires change over time, let alone allow ourselves to adjust our lives to meet our evolving needs.
The next six weeks are about giving yourself permission to want what you want now and adjusting your life to make those wants a reality.
The beginning of the month will have you reflecting internally about what you desire, especially the desires that may not see the light of day. Pay attention to things that don’t feel acceptable or possible to want.
Near the middle of the month, there will be a turning point where things that have felt impossible start to find pathways forward. You may be surprised by sudden epiphanies; things that have always seemed fine start to grate on your nerves, or things you never thought you wanted suddenly look more appealing. Your deepest desires are now allowed to come out of the shadows.
The end of the month brings different constraints around realizing your newfound desires. Most people never listen to their deepest desires and live half-lives of unrealized dreams. Deciding what you want and doing what you need to achieve it is revolutionary—revolutions are never easy.
