August Horoscopes

by Henry Seltzer

Aquarius Horoscope (January 20 - February 18)
Fixed Air. Your ruling planets are Uranus and Saturn.

You are sailing through mighty mystical waters lately, Aquarius. Partnership concerns are paramount for you at this time but that doesn't mean that you are intended to neglect your own development. You are on a powerful roll with your outer presentation, based in part on a better grasp of your own motivation, although the ins and outs of this support may be more than a little confusing. What seems almost like no overt progress is actually a secret river of change that bubbles up from time to time into surface layers of your psyche like an underground spring rising. Just when you least expect it you have once again found your center.

As the month begins, you are seeking practical results, although in another way your feet are barely reaching the ground at this time. You are climbing for a peak of success in career matters and very invested in relationship with significant others in you life also, while at the same time attempting to sort out the details of exactly what makes you tick. You are tempted on the one hand toward being over-committed to sharing, or else pushing everyone away to remain firmly in your own space. When you are attempting to get a better handle on your own security needs, others only seem to slow you down or even hold you back. Adjustment is required. And simultaneously you are riding the wave of an intensely optimistic call to action in all areas of your life, but most especially in the public statement that you embody as you show up in the world. The Full Moon in your sign that comes along on Wednesday, August 9th, may represent some kind of a culmination of these ruminations and cross-purposes. At that time, your relationship dynamic is even more emphasized by the very nature of the Full Moon energy. At the time of the Last Quarter Moon, taking place about a week later, on Tuesday, August 15th, you are likely to experience some degree of tension in the process of growth that you are currently engaged in, as home and family concerns predominate along with changes to your group affiliations and how you fit yourself into society around you. The New Moon of the following week, taking place on Wednesday, August 23rd, represents a fresh start in some of these areas and a new take on intimate connection with important partners. You are coming from a more integrated, although perhaps also more confusing, place, learning to balance self versus other, reality versus high idealism, and public versus private life. Like a tightrope walker you will do fine as long as you refuse to look down.
