8/26/22 ✨ Sun Square Mars
✨ Happy Venus Day!
SUN IN VIRGO | MOON IN LEO >> VIRGO
AFFIRMATION OF THE DAY: I am intentional with my energy.
🪐 MAJOR TRANSITS:
♌️ VENUS SQUARE ♉️ URANUS rx (18º) 9:33 PM PT
Cue the flirty vibes! Venus squares Uranus this Friday night, giving us an urge for excitement in our love lives. We crave new and unique experiences in relationships. This is a great day to try different forms of creative expression as well. Play in the unknown! We might have a dramatic moment of wanting to change up our appearance- this isn’t a day to make permanent changes, but rather, try out a new way of styling your hair, applying your makeup, or wearing a funky outfit. Financial risks will feel more thrilling too- just make sure you don’t cross a line that will lead to regret.
♍️ SUN SQUARE ♊️ MARS (3º) 11:27 PM PT
Our energy builds as the day progresses and the sun comes into a tense 90º square with Mars. Expect to feel like you have a lot of gas in the tank tonight and plenty of energy to burn! We’ll have intense motivation and feel like taking quick action. But with the sun in the controlling sign of Virgo, our actions could come across as harsh or domineering. We could feel the need to challenge authority, which could cause ego battles. Watch how you’re expressing yourself under this intense energy. We’ll have the tendency to come on stronger than usual. When in doubt, burn off excess energy through physical movement. Friday night dance party, anyone?

THE MOON:
VOID MOON FROM MIDNIGHT - 5:25 PM PT
The moon is void all day Friday. This is a great opportunity to tie up loose ends and finish projects rather than start anything new. Take it easy today as the energy winds down to the full moon. The dark moon is a time of introspection and rest.
🌘 WANING CRESCENT MOON ➡️ VIRGO ♍️ (5:25 PM PT)
Start drafting your weekend to-do list! The nearly new moon enters Virgo on Friday night, getting us excited to set intentions about all the ways we want to be productive in the cycle ahead. Under the dark moon, we can go within and get intimate with our own desires for the next month. Take this moment to get crystal clear on what you want to call in.
✨TRANSITING IN THE BACKGROUND (within a degree)
✨ TSJ’S TAKEAWAY:
The tension builds as we prepare for the Virgo New Moon. This Friday is mostly quiet… until evening falls. We spend the day under a void moon in Leo, inviting us to tie up loose ends and finish open projects to close out this cycle feeling accomplished. Wait to start anything new until the weekend- or even next week. The dark moon enters Virgo as the week comes to a close, asking us to take a moment to get crystal clear on the intentions we want to set under the new moon tomorrow. What do you want to accomplish in the cycle ahead? Expect a burst of energy and excitement late Friday night. Venus squares Uranus, making us crave a thrill- especially when it comes to love and money. You might feel like taking a gamble or trying a new, creative approach tonight. Just before midnight, the sun squares Mars, adding a little more fuel to our tank. Just be careful not to be too aggressive or harsh- we crave control during Virgo season and challenging authority could get us into sticky situations. Avoid battling with others and instead, channel your energy through movement. A Friday night dance party could do the trick!
