Astrological forecast for August 2023

This month begins and ends with a Full Moon. These will be two bright Supermoons that will have a strong impact on both August and September.

This month, only two planets will change their sign and will bring new traits.

The majority of the planets will remain in their signs and be in retrograde motion, which will bring our focus to internal processes, rethinking, analysing our past, and returning to past subjects.

In Leo, we become aware of our Ego, but we do not seek to subordinate others to satisfy it. On the contrary, we become the Sun for the people around us.

At this time, any mental activity, communication, commercial activity, online learning, conferences, learning programming and foreign languages, expanding borders, travelling, business trips, active discussion of projects, and team effort will be beneficial.
