Aries Horoscope — August, 2017
Aries August 2017 Horoscope
Get Your Guard Up!
Even though July was a very active month, astrologically, don’t expect a gentle month this August! There are multiple eclipses ahead, and other events that you will need to start preparing for!
Aries Lunar Eclipse for August 2017 Horoscope
August 7th is a big day for you, as there is a Lunar Eclipse in Aquarius. This will illuminate a lot about your relationships with close friends. You will feel it approaching before, and the effects will linger after. If there is a simmering conflict, or unresolved problem with those close to you, around this day will be a time where it will come into the light. Your subconscious will be very acute, and even your dreams will bring forth issues residing deep in your subconscious. It is an excellent time to embrace the light shining on all of this, and take some time to evaluate all aspects of where your life is at and where it is going.
There will also be a Full Moon on August 7th . Native American tribes called the August Moon the “Sturgeon Moon” because they knew that the sturgeon of the Great Lakes and Lake Champlain were most really caught during this moon. The Full Moon is when the moon’s energy is at its peak. The day of the full moon brings vitality, good health and friendships. This moon is also called the Blueberry Moon, for the blueberry harvest, but in color, it appears reddish when reflecting through a molten haze during the early hours of the day.
Aries Retrograde for August 2017 Horoscope
On August 12th, Mercury goes Retrograde in Virgo, staying there until September 5th. Remember this window of time carefully, and plan around it. Take care of all of the formal aspects of your life, and important decisions, BEFORE and AFTER these dates.
This Retrograde will probably bring forth some old project, issue, or a friend back into your life. It is a revisiting of a pre-existing situation in your life, and be prepared for the emergence of this in your life, and be able to resolve whatever is left in chaos.
Aries Solar Eclipse for August 2017 Horoscope
More eclipses! On the 21st you have a Solar Eclipse in Leo, which has a profound connection to your sign. Everything about this eclipse will bring forth pleasure, romance, and creativity. Indulge your impulses when it comes to diving into a new creative project, or put more time into projects that you might have left by the wayside.
Your romantic partner will be an object of your attention more so around this eclipse, and don’t fight it. This is a wonderful break from the day-to-day grind in life, and around this date make a very strong effort to experience pleasure, and don’t hold back.
This solar eclipse could also bring newness to your romantic or creative life. You have a deep longing for love and affection, which, if the circumstances are right, you are willing to return. Right now, rushing into what seems to be a permanent relationship might be a mistake. Take time to smell the roses. This is not the time to criticize and fuss about anything and everything.
Sometimes it’s good to just hang out and casually relax with no agenda, whatsoever. Let the spark grow into something with greater meaning. And as always, you may be more drawn to being around children, and the wonder that they still possess when looking at the world. Try to work out a specific schedule that allows you to spend more time with the kids.
If you are so inclined, even make a special night of the eclipse. Plan a dinner with a theme, or get together with other Aries, Aquarians or Leos for a fun night out on the town. You have a great sense of humor, often satirical and absurd, and on this night, you’ll be the center of laughter and fun.
Positive Turns for Aries August 2017 Horoscope
Saturn turns in Sagittarius on August 25th, and resolution is at hand! If there have been annoying delays in dealing with moving forward in your life, this day is a moment when things get resolved.
Around the 26th Venus will enter Leo and this is a marvelous turn of events for you. This could mean a new romance, or a wonderful enlightenment of your creative side. If you take it slow in choosing the right friends or partners, you are likely to make right decisions. This will last until September 19th.
Use your downtime to get to know yourself better. Observe yourself in daily life and learn to recognize the early warning signs of negative thoughts. Occasionally allow things to run their course.
