eND OF JULY/august 2026 FORECAST

(READ THE MESSAGE FROM "AIM" BY CLICKING "MORE" TO HEAR ABOUT HOW NEW FREQUENCIES ARE BEING DOWNLOADED TILL THE END OF 2026)

This full Moon in Aquarius affects those born under the sign of Aquarius and Leo on July 29th (10:36AM EDT). If you have Sun, Moon, rising, or planets in either of these signs, you will feel polarized in your relationships till the new Moon solar eclipse on August 12th. 

The give and take in relationships will be obvious and this includes relationships at work and in their personal lives. Leo has the advantage because Jupiter is in Leo, adding protection and good luck to the polarized opposition going on.

The first full Moon in July is Guru Purnima, the day of the year when you can ask your teacher for a wish you want to be fulfilled. 

This full Moon chart offers miracles like never before as Jupiter, the Guru planet, will join with Uranus, Neptune and Pluto, which are involved in a rare "Minor Grand Trine". 

Trines offer the wind at our back and since Pluto is trine to Uranus, the planet that normally rules Aquarius, and this full Moon in in Aquarius, the fulfillment of one's desires can manifest over the next two weeks.

Situations that can transform (Pluto) the lives of those born under the signs of Aquarius, Leo, Gemini, Aries, Pisces, Scorpio and Virgo. 

Uranus wants to bring higher frequencies from higher dimensions to Earth. This is "Ground Control to Major Tom"

An expansion of consciousness for all Zodiac signs but more for the signs mentioned. Listen to your inner voice and let it guide you to where you need to be and manifest what you want.

You may notice more electricity flowing through your body as the subtle currents of prana/chi will tingle parts of your body especially in the heart and brain areas where there are millions of neurons. 

(President Trumps problems continue) 

This is not an enjoyable time for him. The rising sign rules the physical body, and the progressed Moon is in its fall in Scorpio, the sign that rules birth and death. 

Then, on the first day of August the South Node will be at 29 degrees of Leo and conjunct his rising sign. The South Node is past karma coming back to him, rising sign.

With these two combinations, he could be in trouble with his health or some violent situation that compromises his physical body. 

The good news is the “Minor Grand Trine” allows more protections as Uranus in his solar chart, started on his 80th birthday, is in the 7th house of open enemies. This could be instability in his marriage but with Uranus sextile to Neptune and trine to Pluto, it helps to ease the pain. 

His new solar year chart that started on his 80th birthday, June 14th, has both luminaries, the Sun, and the Moon, as well as Uranus all in Gemini and with the Sun unaspected, he is not connecting with the public. 

This disconnection we have already seen will carry on throughout his new solar year and this can be his weakness. Gemini can’t seem to shut up and being so self-absorbed, unaspected Sun, he will lose support all around him and may not even notice it. 

The South Node will move through President Trumps 12th house of secrete enemies over the next 18 months. The South Node represents past karma, and the 12th house represents unfinished karma that needs to be cleaned up. 

FORECAST FOR AUGUST 

August is the eclipse season. Both the new and full Moon’s this month are eclipses. 

Before I talk about that I will start off with Venus moving into Libra, the relationship sign on August 6th. Venus is in its dignity in Libra because it rules the signs of Taurus and Libra. 

These are the signs that Venus expresses itself most naturally and with strength. If you have Sun, Moon, rising, or planets in Libra, you are ready to attract balance and justice in ALL your relationships. 

This energy will be active till September 10th. This is a wonderful time to ask for a raise as financial gains can happen for Libra when Venus moves through this sign. 

Also, creative energy is high for any of the fine arts Libra people are involved with. Create that song, author that poem, create that painting, mold a sculpture, or give advice to others about relationship issues. 

Mercury will move out of its retrograde shadow and enter Leo on August 9th and continues to strengthen the already expansive energies of Leo. Mercury will remain in Leo till August 25th. 

If you have Sun, Moon, rising or planets in Leo, you are ready for action and a whole new life that you will create over the next six months as you are thinking (Mercury) and communicating more loudly than ever to others what your needs are. 

Don’t get in the Lions way, especially if it’s a female Lion, or she may eat you for dinner. Better to just say yes, yes, and yes until August 25th when the mind calms down because Mercury enters Virgo. 

Mars will enter Cancer on August 11th where it is in its fall or weakest expression. If you have Sun, Moon, rising, or planets in Cancer, you need to be careful not to let others use you. This placement of Mars makes you less confident in yourself. 

Mars will stay in the sign of Cancer till September 28th. 

Don’t let your children run your life and then disrespect you. You are very vulnerable during this time. Take the time to take at least three deep breaths every few hours to regain stability of emotions and become more self-empowered. 

Remember, we are not at the mercy of planets. Planets remind us of what lessons we need to take into our own hands and rise to the occasion of self-love and not be a victim to our circumstances. Be centered and smile but be strong at the same time. 

We have eclipses in August. The new Moon total eclipse in Leo on August 12this 20 degrees (1:37PM EDT). 

Now we have Sun, Moon, Jupiter, and Mercury all in the sign of Leo. Leo’s love to be the center of attention if the rest of the birth chart supports that. 

Lead singers born under the sign of Leo are Madonna, Mick Jagger, Jennifer Lopez and many lead performers have Pluto in Leo or planets in the 5th house like Jon Bon Jovi, the late David Bowie, and the late Freddi Mercury of Queen. 

Needless to say, August is going to be a busy month for concert events with all this new eclipse energy running till February of 2027. 

If you have Sun, Moon, rising, or planets in Leo, you are starting a whole new life and ready to let go of any situation or people who no longer help you to evolve. This could be leaving a job and starting a new one or leaving a relationship and starting a new solo life. 

A Grand trine in this total new Moon solar eclipse chart is in the air signs of Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius. 

These signs may find that life will flow more with grace, with less stress, over the next six months. These signs can see the future as combining creativity with technological advancements such as Robotics and UFO disclosures. 

Leo also rules politics, so we are going to start to hear more about the new directions in politics. 

I think the wars that have been going on in various countries will be intense in August and the leaders of these countries who continue to be aggressive with military action may find the public turning their back on them. 

A total new Moon solar eclipse wants new beginnings and not the same old news story and leaders (Leo) who have aggressive talking points and actions that serve themselves and not the public. 

Remember, the negative side of the sign of Leo is arrogance and narcissism. 

The sign of Leo can be romantic so the next six months could bring new romantic partnership into your lives. 

The Sun enters Virgo on August 22nd to calm down the intense manifestation of Leo and Aquarius energy we have seen since the end of July. 

Mercury will enter Virgo on August 25th and it’s back to school feeling. Mercury in Virgo is in its dignity so organization skills are sharper as the mind can see the details clearly and allow less stress as schoolbooks and cloths are selected for a new school year which can drive parents crazy. 

We end August with a partial full Moon eclipse in Pisces at four degrees (12:18AM EDT).

If you have Sun, Moon, rising, or planets in Pisces, you may feel more fulfilled about your life. Full Moon’s represent completions and the energy of an eclipse can last up to six months. 

With the North Node starting its movement in Aquarius at 29 degrees, it conjuncts this full Moon partial eclipse. The North Node expands your directions in life.

Pisces and Aquarius are looking to become more independent with this combination. Pisces may feel pulled towards free-lance work that is more creative and possibly more involved with technology in one way or another. 

Graphics design, software engineer, astrology interpreter, Robotics, music that is more Syth sounding such as floating in outer space. 

Whatever it is, the signs of Pisces and Aquarius are completing, full Moon, projects they have been working on over the last six months and ready to reveal their newfound talents into the world over the next six months. 

Mercury and the Sun in Virgo, Virgo is the opposite sign of Pisces, is conjunct within a degree and at the eye of two Yods. 

This clearly shows an adjustment needs to be made for the signs of Pisces and Virgo if they want to continue life with less stress and more opportunities for spiritual growth and better health. 

We may be hearing more about health issues by the end of August that needs attention before everyone starts to go back into classrooms at school. 

Mother nature may be on the move with continued weather patterns involving water (Pisces) not only flooding but water needed to put out fires. We don’t want to see a water drought in some states in America or around the world. 

Fires. floods and earthquakes have been on the rise in July in several countries. This may continue as the Earth is cleansing itself. Fire and water are the great purifiers of collective stress. 

My prayers go out to those who are affected by weather and other natural disasters who lose family members and need a new home. 

Pisces is a mystery and Virgo is the healer. These opposite signs working together can help heal the world and turn people towards a healthier approach to life. 

Yod’s can offer transformation (Pluto in Aquarius), that can fulfill dreams by manifesting what they want (Neptune in Aries) in a highly organized way (Sun and Mercury in Virgo). All involved in the Yod’s which can give you an opportunity of a lifetime or break you to a level of confusion. Let’s hope it’s not the latter for the signs mentioned. 

Find the time to unplug from the world through some form of meditation. I teach “Inner Grace Meditation” which uses sound to settle the mind down and experience the quieter levels of our inner sanctuary. 

This can be the glue of silence that holds everything together when things seem to go out of control. 

Wishing everyone a wonderful August 2026. Swa Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
