Hi, I hope this finds you well and in good health. Here are the 3 Astro Highlights of the week starting from August 16, 2021, through August 22, 2021.
First Astro Highlight of the Week.
The first Astro Highlight of the week is on Tuesday, August 17, 2021, when Venus enters the diplomatic sign of Libra and will remain in Libra until September 10, 2021. While Venus is in Libra, the focus is on romance, partnerships, and finding balance and good harmony. You become more poised and refined from the way you speak to the way you dress. You find solutions to difficult situations since you have the opportunity to view things from all perspectives but try to make decisions. Lastly, you may want to consider doing botox, fillers, and plastic surgery work if this is something of interest to you.
Second Astro Highlight of the Week.
The second Astro Highlight of the week is on Thursday, August 19, 2021, there are two aspects occurring on this day, which are: Uranus starts its retrograde in Taurus and Sun in Leo opposes Jupiter in Aquarius.
Uranus starts its retrograde in Taurus.
Uranus enters its retrograde on August 19, 2021 and will go direct on January 18, 2022. When Uranus goes retrograde, it’s about reviewing the fast and unexpected change you have gone through the last several months. You must make adjustments to the things that are not working on a personal level and global level. This retrograde energy put you on a pause so that you can manage and focus on the transformations made and make use of it. You process things internally during this time before you can manifest it externally once Uranus turns direct on January 18, 2022.
Sun in Leo opposes Jupiter in Aquarius.
This energy brings restlessness that may have you over extending ourselves or over indulging. You may seek freedom from the things that you may have over committed too. It is best to use this time to find balance and not over commit or over do things.
Third Astro Highlight of the Week.
The third Astro Highlight of the week is on Sunday, August 22, 2021, when there is a full blue moon in Aquarius. This full moon comes with an aspect of the Aquarius full moon conjunct Jupiter in Aquarius. The full moon takes place in the rebellious sign of Aquarius at 29°37′ at 8:31 am eastern time. The full moon affects people with personal planets (Sun, Moon, Rising, Venus, and Mars) and degrees between 24 to 29 degrees in the fixed signs of Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius, most significantly.
At this time, you favor the intellectual over the emotional. You want to be intellectually stimulated especially in the areas of innovation, technology, and humanity. This full moon is about completing or ending with themes having to do with: individual pride vs. social justice pride; individualism vs. Collectivism; ego expression vs. freedom of expression; love given vs. love received; Eros vs. Agape; big heart vs. big mind.
Reminder, full moons are about releasing, culminations, and endings and the energy is powerful.

This transit is about being generous, lucky, and in a good mood. This is a good time to spend with family and friends. You may also want to play the lottery or try your luck at the casino. On the negative side of this aspect can produce excess in eating and overdoing things. Too much of a good thing is not good. Try to exercise moderation with this aspect.
Full “Blue” Moon Ritual.
If you plan on doing a ritual during this Full “Blue” Moon you will need the following items: Candle (white, violet, and orange), flowers (Orchid, Snowdrop, or Freesia), and incense (opoponax or myrrh), and sage:
1. Place the flowers on the table.
2. Find a comfy and quiet spot to sit.
3. Light a candle and your incense.
4. Start your 20 minute sound bath. (A Sound Bath is a guided meditation technique where you sit or lay still and a practitioner makes continuous sound from sacred instruments like Tibetan singing bowls, gongs, or chimes. The idea is that vibrations from the sound of the instruments interact with the vibrations in your body, causing a mental and biological effect.
5. After meditation, burn sage around your home.
6. Grab the list from the New Moon and place it in a balloon or burn it. Release the balloon into the universe. If you burn the list, dispose of the ashes in the trash.
7. Close your session with gratitude.
