WITCHTIPS
This week will bring major changes and growth to our lives — if we are ready to move forward and lean into pursuing who and what we love. August 26th brings karmic connections our way, when action planet Mars, who’s currently in Aries, aspects the Nodes of Destiny. The following day, Venus, who’s in Cancer, and Neptune, who’s retrograde in Pisces, tenderly link up offering us the promise of unconditional love. Mercury, who’s in Virgo, and Jupiter, who’s retrograde in Capricorn, expand our minds and ideology on the 29th. The energy shifts on the 30th, when Venus opposes Pluto, who’s retrograde in Capricorn. Passions will consume us, as well as jealousy. Later in the day, Mercury and Neptune share a fraught aspect, creating ambiguity and confusion around our emotions. The Full Corn Moon in Pisces brings clarity around such sentiments on September 1st. With the help of Mercury and Pluto retrograde, we can unmask all secrets on the 1st.
There’s a high chance that we may pick up on other people’s energies this week, which may create intense feelings to persist within us. Therefore, it’s essential to do a cleansing this week to clear out the toxicity and detox our homes. First, cleanse your space with palo santo. Be sure to get rid of the energy that’s locked in the edges and corners of your rooms. Once you’re done, place clear quartz crystals in the corners that you feel holds the most energy to detox your space. You may benefit from placing an amethyst crystal by your bedside to protect your energy while sleeping.
Aries
Before you hit the gas pedal and start accelerating your energy, take a few minutes to center your energy. You will find that you're at your best when you approach life with ease and caution (aware of all the positives and negatives of a situation) before moving forward. Think about all the possible outcomes and proceed with caution before you fly off into the ether.
Taurus
When one door closes, another one opens. Remember that you don’t have to stay in a situation that isn’t working for you. You have the power to make changes in your life and transform your vibe. You can create the world you want this week. As long as you’re clear about what you want to bring into your orb, success is guaranteed. Get to work!
Gemini
Be cognizant of who and what you give your energy and time to this week. You will find that fixating on one particular situation is holding you back from achieving your goals. Before you become consumed with investigating and resolving one particular matter or relationship, be aware that it’s keeping you back from important tasks and that it is actually a waste of your energy.
Cancer
If you look deep within yourself, you will be able to find all of the answers you’ve been looking for to your recent existential quandaries. The caveat is that you may not be ready to face the truths of different situations, which will cause inner turmoil to persist within. Be real with yourself to help yourself live your best life, full of honor and honesty.
Leo
Instead of marching onwards and forwards, take a step back and work on past issues. Be bold and brave. Let yourself make amends with repressed situations and emotions. What you’ll find is that a lot of your old problems are affecting your current relationships. All of this is why it’s best to heal and mend your heart before creating the same issues all over again.
Virgo
A storm’s brewing within your intimate relationships. A way to avoid the drama is to own up to all of the critiques that your peers are throwing your way. And, let it roll off your shoulders. Don’t take things too personally this week, as much of it’s projection based. You will find that if you drop such annoyances you can have an extremely positive week.
Libra
You may be feeling like an imposter when it comes to your career, resulting from your coworkers being extremely invested and in tune with the incentives of your boss. Don’t let their vibe stand in the way of achieving greatness. Think about the vision you want to create and decide if the company you work for is the right place for your dreams to soar.
Scorpio
You aspire to high ideals when it comes to love and relationships. However, you are not listening and adhering to your own rules. Before you criticize others, make sure you’re practicing what you preach to avoid conflicts from starting. Also, be sure you’re absolutely ight in your assumptions before arguing with your peers. This will allow you to avoid drama with those you care about.
Sagittarius
You’re evolving and letting go of all things that’ve been you back. The caveat is that you may not be ready to move away from people and situations yet. Before you make hasty decisions, be sure that it is what you really want. If not, then start focusing your energies on implementing change to your inner vibe in an effort to expand your philosophical horizons.
Capricorn
Words can hurt, which is why it’s best to express yourself with kindness and compassion. Before you assert your views with passion and vigor, think about how others may perceive them. You’ll find that you can attract more bees with honey, not bitter herbs. Try to use this motto going forward when faced with confrontation to ensure a positive outcome in all of your exchanges.
Aquarius
The thing you will be grappling with the most this week is the power of intention. Instead of acting out in ways that can be harmful to yourself, try to use the pungent lunar energy to create the world you want. Once you’re honest with what you want to achieve then you can manifest your truest desires. Let your actions dictate your innermost heartfelt sentiments.
Pisces
The Full Moon will make you feel as though you’re not getting enough attention from others. You may be longing for more TLC, resulting in you acting out. Before you confront those you care about, take a few breaths and calm your energy. Don’t start a conversation dramatically to express your feelings. Let your heart guide you to find gentle words to state your concerns.
