Sagittarius Horoscope for August 2013

Posted on in Sagittarius |
By for ASTROGRAPH Horoscopes

Your momentum of intense change is on-going, Sagittarius. This summer has been a powerful time of inward realization, with the long and intense Mercury Retrograde contributing, a trend that continues into the current month. This is an action-oriented month for you, although again mainly action on the inside, since your hidden places remain an important focus. You are a voyager in search of intimacy and connection, recognizing more and more clearly that the investigation begins with your own inner depths. There are dimensions to your recent experience that defy rational description, and that can only be referenced by a process of deep intuition. You are on a spelunking expedition to your inner world that will eventually bring up treasure, and it is fortunate that you now have the tools available to you to dig down.

As the month begins, you are riding the wave of enlightened inner exploration that arose with the dynamic Last Quarter Moon of the previous Monday, in the ending days of July. This was a Sun square Moon, with the Sun located in your higher mind sector, and with also a very beautiful configuration of a six-pointed star involving your ruler, Jupiter, along with the Moon, Venus, Saturn, Neptune and Pluto. This peaceful and productive energy is available to you now, in the days following this special moment, as you reorient to a new month and a fresh lunation cycle that starts this next week with the Leo New Moon of August 6th.

Mercury has been retrograding through your sector of intimacy and of depth exploration, and it still tends toward an inward orientation right through the first few days of August. This is because even though changed to direct motion last July 20th, Mercury does not escape its retrograde shadow until the afternoon of August 3rd and is accompanied by some significant aspects as it does so, including an opposition between Jupiter and Pluto, so that deep transformation accompanies every stage of this psychological journey.

All three outer planets, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto, are emphasized at various times throughout the current month. Trickster Uranus is engaged in the early going, along with Pluto, and then again at the time of the Full Moon of August 20th when Jupiter squares him. Uranus resides in your self-expression sector, where for months now he has been symbolically resonating with sudden shifts in how you handle yourself and your creative output, primarily representative of your individuality and the unique viewpoint that you bring to bear. This is true even more so during August, with Jupiter making a strong chime with Uranus as the month unfolds.

You also have Saturn trine Neptune all month long, with Neptune continuing in an activated state for most of this monthly period while residing in your sector of home, family and tribe, corresponding as well to your psychological depths. This placement is a bit difficult to digest in ordinary states, and needs a flash of otherworldly orientation to truly thrive. Chiron, the Wounded Healer, is also activated in this month's configurations, located in the same sector, referencing your psychological roots. This is more than a little crazy-making also, but things go better when you permit yourself non-judgmental access to dark places within you. This involves being able to pick up on the complexes within you that were spawned by early wounding, usually invoked by inadvertent parental behavior. You might have walled away certain parts of yourself to avoid the pain. This was a valid response at the time, but to continue this habitual reactivity in terms of present tense responses only prolongs the damage that was originally done.

With the massive changes that are happening now, I highly recommend that folks get a transit report tailored specifically to their chart for the most accurate description of what's in store for you in the months ahead.
