Leo August 2019 Horoscope – What Makes a Leo Tick?
Leos always makes their presence known. They think and act larger than would normally be dared as they are fearless and strong. Their public image is what is important to a Leo. They love to be flattered, as it is all about pride. They have a powerful intelligence and enjoy a good debate. A Leo expects his closest friends to be honest and not afraid to call the Leo out when they have gotten off the right path. They are born leaders. They have a regal quality to them, and possess a noble manner that is hard to miss.
The Leo expects to always be the leader with their strong, competitive spirit. They are full of dynamic energy and self motivation, and possess a great mind. This puts you over the top in everything you attempt to achieve. You have a stubborn nature, and expect only the best effort from others.
The Leo type is open and trusting. They are warm hearted, kind, and are driven by the desire to be loved and admired. In turn, they want to shower love and affection on people as they require everyone to be happy. They are giving, but sharing does not come easily to them. They have a flair for the dramatic and strive to make a good impression. They always dress to impress.
The Leo is a very romantic partner. They are generous, loyal, and loving to the end. The Leo does everything with flair and finesse. They expect to be the dominant partner in the relationship and you must be willing to be the follower if you want to make it with this sign. Never try to gain control. They love to wine and dine their partner and remain loyal throughout the relationship.
A Leo would do well in society as a star of stage and screen, a corporate top executive or a politician, and they feel they must always be the boss. But these are not the positions that would truly make them happy. A Leo fits well in the role of a teacher. They understand that education is the key to success in life and want to teach others to learn to be more open to understanding the world around them.

Aries November 2019 Horoscope
A New Moon in Virgo is a strong one. The energy from Virgo has ambitions kicking into overdrive and brings productive energy, more than we are used to. If we do not prepare ourselves for the change in energy, we could find ourselves feeling overwhelmed beyond function. If we are prepared for this burst of Virgo energy, we can ride it for all its worth and get things done. If you are not used to this kind of intense energy, you might waste it if you don’t harness it.
This Virgo New Moon Goddess is assisting all of us in putting our lives in order, taking steps to finish what we’ve started, while finding solutions that are natural, essential, and economical. The Virgo New Moon Goddess seeks maximum efficiency, especially in health and habits, to help with our work lives and daily routines. We are looking for elegant solutions in our lives and she can help. Not in the fashion sense, though she can be that, too, but in precision, quality, and ability to get things done. Elegance is a balance of simplicity and precision honed to gracefully deliver maximum results, with the ability to quickly spot problems and hone in on the details. The Virgo Goddess is a learn-it-so-you-can-fix-it kind of gal.
We have a very exciting happening with this New Moon. This Moon is also called a Black Moon as it is a second New Moon that appears in a calendar month. Most years have twelve New Moons, one each month. But our calendar is not perfectly synchronized with astronomical events. Therefore, every now and then, a year has thirteen Full Moons. When this happens, the New Moons is also referred to as a Black Moon.
When the Black Moon arrives, a shift in the energy of the Universe is underway. Our attention might shift to new interests and/or occupations. We may meet new people or drift from old ones. What once seemed so important to our well-being, loses its appeal and we find deep inner shifts reflected in changes we once could never have contemplated. Insights and wisdom will be coming to us thick and fast, so it is essential that we take time to process and make sense of what information it holds—and the reasons it is coming to us at this exact time. Allow more quiet time in your daily routine.
The Dark Moon is where the real growth occurs. When we go through the energy shift of the Dark Moon, it is vital that we discard outdated belief systems, let go of irrational and debilitating thoughts, untangle ourselves from toxic dynamics, and become aware of how we are holding ourselves back by repeating harmful patterns of behavior. Black Moons are important for clearing negative patterns and catapulting us forward with a clearer, more focused mind.
New Moon Energy can be powerful. Tapping into this energy can support your dreams and desires. This New Moon is about bringing good health, honor, and riches. It brings people together and is a good omen for ending conflict through peaceful negotiations. This is a time to make your dreams come true through patience, open-mindedness, and hard work. One way to connect to this energy and influence is to use the Moon’s energy to help set our intentions and clear negativity. Be clear on what you want going forward.
Incense is commonly associated with cleansing, and the fragrant smoke from burning herbs or resins has been used for cleansing negative energy for centuries. Sage is the most popular and burning sage is a great way to cleanse the aura as well. When reading about working with sage, you may see the phrase “smudging ceremony.” The word “smudging” sounds like it might imply using the ashes; however, it really means “to pass something through smoke” or “to pass the smoke over and around something.” It is the smoke that purifies. Use a sage bundle or stick incense, light the end, let it burn a few moments, and blow it out. The end should be glowing red, with smoke coming out of it. Move the smoke over and around the item, space, or person to be cleansed.
The Zodiac Rat Year is one of the romantic stars in Chinese horoscopes. The Year of the Rat is in the Water group, according to the Chinese Five Element theory. The Water Group brings wisdom and intelligence to the year 2020. This is a year of strength and positive vibrations. It brings the ability to react properly before the worst circumstances take place. Make sure you stay alert to what is happening around you.
The Year of the Rat brings behavior issues. This is the year when people are active at night. They look for good times and drink when it’s dark. The alcoholic Rat person tends to find trouble in love affairs. It’s not a good year for serious relationships, so keep it light. There is no place for negativity in life. Choose your friends wisely, and make sure to associate yourself with positive people.
It is a year for New Beginnings! You are likely to act more spontaneous this year, which will add some excitement to your love life, whether you begin the year in a relationship or single. When you are trying to get with someone new, make sure that you show them your true self from the beginning. This can help to prevent a lot of problems as your relationship goes on.
The Rat is good at earning money but doesn’t know how to keep it. A Rat works for money and knows how to accumulate the wealth. The Year of the Rat brings desires for a better material life and many urges to hang out at magnificent places. Be careful that you do not overspend. Money flow will be sufficient, and if you want to keep it, you should focus on cutting down unnecessary expenses. You will be the happiest when you spend your money on others instead of on yourself.
The Year of the Rat can bring out the dark side of your personality. This year, traits of intolerance, selfishness and scheming are magnified. When encountering serious frustrations, the Rat has a tendency to leave where they are, even relocate to a different town. You can get a validation from an old saying among the boatmen – Rats leave a sinking ship, which means the rat may be aware that the ship will be wrecked and runs away in advance. If you are someone who runs away from problems, challenge yourself to stay. Leaving is comfortable, staying is the challenge.
With issues of Health, the Year of the Rat is a year to be more careful with what you eat and at what hours. Be especially careful during the first half of the year as your health is more sensitive and you can be prone to small illnesses. Also, be careful about injuries, especially when you are in a hurry and need to get somewhere quickly. It is important to adopt a healthy diet and balanced lifestyle with an exercise regime in place.
All throughout 2020, good luck is on your side, but you need to seize it as soon as it knocks on your door. The Chinese say that nothing scares the luck more than when you doubt it. In turn, those who show enthusiasm and act quickly will be able to ensure their success. Red is one of the luckiest colors in Chinese culture, standing for prosperity, loyalty, success, and happiness. Red can drive away bad luck and evil spirits.
Rats love gemstone beads that are as energized as they are. The lucky stones for the Year of the Rat are the diamond, amethyst, and emerald. Diamonds are for luck and health, the amethyst for activating endurance, and the emerald for protecting against unpleasant events. The gemstone that is most popular for the year of the Rat is the Garnet. It is known as the Blood Stone due to its deep red color. It is thought to ward off sorrow and depression. It is believed that it enhances mental health and saves your house from theft, as per Chinese lore.
The New Moon is a birth. As the waxing phase journeys on, the Moon grows and matures until it reaches its ripest point, the Full Moon. A New Moon marks the start of a new lunar cycle, as well as the start of a new personal cycle. The New Moon will ignite the passion in our relationships and bring us closer to our families. Families are where we can feel love and learn how to love others. Life is tough, and we need people we can lean on. It is also a time for tenderness and fun with your family members.
The New Moon, just like the Full Moon, exerts a strong gravitational pull on the elements, including the human body. Researchers believe that sleeping troubles are intensified during the time of a New Moon. At the New and Full Moon, the pull they exert is at its strongest. This is because the Sun, the Moon and the Earth line up in a relatively straight line. The Sun’s gravitational pull adds to that of the Moon, giving us the highest and lowest tides.
The Chinese Zodiac, within the traditional Chinese calendar, celebrates this New Moon phase, or what they also call the Dark Moon, at the start of the calendar month. This New Moon phase lasts roughly for 29 plus days. The Chinese New Year is kick-started by the first New Moon of the year. During the Chinese New Year (which is also celebrated by many surrounding countries in Asia such as the Philippines, Thailand, and Malaysia), many traditional rituals and festivals are held where fireworks are lit. Many Buddhists abstain from eating meat, and elders and family members are celebrated, even those who have departed.
Many people participate in New Moon rituals where they may meditate on their personal desires, dreams and intentions. The energy of the New Moon helps people grow spiritually as they seek out the Moon’s healing energy. In this manner, the New Moon is rich with symbolism and it represents a time of great self-awareness where hopes and visions for the future can be manifested.
The New Moon is also known for having a more inward feel, and therefore can be unsettling to those not comfortable with uncertainty, or change. Be as mindful as possible to stay positive. Guard against all variety of negativity with your mighty will. Whatever energy you feed during the New Moon Phase will be stored in your vault, and be amplified later in the month. This can obviously be positive or negative. To get the best out of this, you want to think positive thoughts. A great help can be a “Moon Gathering” with others.
The belief in the power of a New Moon is so strong, it has people coming together for “Moon Gatherings,” where candles are lit, intentions are set, and a fresh start is summoned. Start by sitting down in a quiet space and writing out your Goals for the next 30 days. List the ways in which you are not only receiving support from others, but supporting others, too. This can be done alone, or with others. You should cleanse your home with sage to eliminate all negative energy, play meditation music, and light a scented candle. A new candle for the New Moon. Sit in a circle while writing down your thoughts, and if you are with others, have each one read their intentions out loud. It is a powerful time to send out your desires to the Universe.
This Full Moon in Aries brings new beginnings in terms of standing up for ourselves, becoming more independent and daring to take a risk. This is a potent Full Moon for the Warrior. The challenge of this Full Moon is to learn to extend a peace offering to someone close to you, to understand the rewards of balancing your wishes and desires with theirs, and if necessary, to let go of a relationship that doesn’t allow you both independence balanced with intimacy.
This Full Moon was known by early Native American tribes as the Full Hunter’s Moon because the leaves are falling and the game is fat and ready to hunt. Mother Earth has prevailed with the change of seasons to remind us to prepare ourselves for a dramatic shift in our lives while giving ourselves the much-needed time to get accustomed to the changes coming our way. Use the element of Fire under this transit to harness and manifest the luck that you need.
This Moon has also been known as the Travel Moon. It is called the Travel Moon as this Moon provides extra light after sunset for farmers to continue working on harvesting their crops. When harvesting is completed, farmers have the advantage of extra evening light to engage their wandering spirits. Use red candles and burn cinnamon, nutmeg or ginger as your incense during this Full Travel Moon.
The name “Blood Moon” is used for a Moon that appears reddish because of dust, smoke and haze in the sky. It is one of the Full Moons of autumn when the leaves are turning red. This is a time when you might be tempted to make the wrong decision under the influence of the Blood Moon and taking time out to stop and think is essential. Act wisely and don’t make any irrational decisions.
This October Full Moon is a subtle reminder to all of us that “With great power comes great responsibility.” It is essential that we not only act in a scenario that demands it but also take responsibility for that action. Aries brings fire and wind to new opportunities. That we have two opposite energies working in harmony under this Full Moon is no mistake!
The October Full Moon in Aries brings the energy needed to accomplish, as we are being asked to step up, take action, and start claiming back our lives. The last few months have been a season of resting, thinking, and deciding which elements of the past to let go of (see ya later, toxic relationships!). With that time to internalize behind us, the cosmos will now call on everyone to let their inner Fire signs show.
This Aries Full Moon tends to encourage impulsive, passionate behavior, which is exactly the kind you need in order to weather the emotions and fork-in-the-road moments that are coming our way courtesy of the lunar cycle. The secret to making good choices is to be conscious of the larger picture of what you want in your life. Certain decisions are more important than others. The problem is, we don’t know which ones are which. Every challenge that we encounter, we will come out the other side stronger, wiser and more experienced.
October 3 – Mercury enters Scorpio. Scorpio is very intense, secretive and instinctive, so when coupled with the planet of communication, this creates extremely profound and capable insight. This intensifies the ability to see human motivations more clearly. It is a time of suspicion and hidden motives as you will find others always wanting the upper hand in conversations. Strategies are strong. Communications are passionate and many times appear to be lecturing. When interacting with others, observe, as you will be given really good advice and help.
October 4 – Moon enters Capricorn. This is a time for focus. Our determination to reach our goals is very strong. The Moon in Capricorn is a good time to balance between home and career. It’s ensuring that life doesn’t get in the way of work and that work doesn’t stop you having a career. Working together with friends and family can be important to your success at home—or at work—and can even improve your health. People with stronger support systems have more aggressive immune responses to illnesses than those who lack such support.
October 8 – Draconids Meteor Shower. The Draconids is a minor meteor shower producing only about 10 meteors per hour, but reaches it peak tonight. It is produced by dust grains left behind by comet 21P Giacobini-Zinner, which was first discovered in 1900. Meteor showers are also known as shooting stars. Take a moment to wish on one of these shooting stars. That moment, that pause when you become present and you send out an intention into the Universe — that alone is sacred in its own way. Venus enters Scorpio today.
October 13 – Full Moon in Aries. This Full Moon brings new beginnings in terms of standing up for ourselves, becoming more independent and daring to take a risk. This Full Moon was known by early Native American tribes as the Full Hunters Moon because the leaves are falling and the game is fat and ready to hunt. This Moon has also been known as the Travel Moon and the Blood Moon. Called the Travel Moon as this Moon provides extra light after sunset for farmers to continue working on harvesting their crops. When harvesting is completed, farmers have the advantage of extra evening light to engage their wandering spirits. The name “Blood Moon” is used for a Moon that appears reddish because of dust, smoke and haze in the sky. It is one of the full moons of autumn when the leaves are turning red.
October 15 – Mercury in Scorpio trine Neptune in Pisces – Contact between these two planets does make it a good time to communicate with our Spirit Guides, Angels, or even loved ones who have crossed over to The Other Side. Pay attention to what happens in your dreams now. Dream time is where we are at our most relaxed, and as such, messages come through more readily when we sleep vs. during our waking hours. Your dreams will bring you clarity.
October 20 — Mercury at Greatest Eastern Elongation. Mercury will be at its highest point above the horizon in the evening sky. The energy of Mercury, at this time, has been known to bring quirks in your manner of speaking, such as being defensive, chatty, eloquent, emotional, etc. Since the mind can be its own house of mirrors, this also can show a mind drawn to illusions or to playing games with others.
October 21, 22 – Orionids Meteor Shower. The Orionids is an average shower producing up to 20 meteors per hour at its peak. It is produced by dust grains left behind by comet Halley, which has been known and observed since ancient times. The Second Quarter Moon will block some of the fainter meteors this year, but the Orionids tend to be fairly bright so observing its shooting stars could still be a good show. Best viewing will be from a dark location after midnight. Meteors will radiate from the constellation Orion, but can appear anywhere in the sky. Seeing a shooting star means that you will achieve your destiny.
October 23 – Sun enters Scorpio. The Sun entering this sign ruled by Pluto brings the best time for self-transformation. Pluto is known as the “Planet of Magic and Power.“ It is mainly the power to transform yourself, so that you become a person who can achieve your goals. It is a day to put you, first.
October 25 – Venus in Scorpio sextile Pluto in Capricorn. All the energies and results from what was started and set with intention, will be brought in full circle. You will not have to worry about financial issues because the stars are rightly aligned to bless you in this sector.
October 27 – Uranus at Opposition. The blue-green planet will be at its closest approach to Earth and its face will be fully illuminated by the Sun. It will be brighter than any other time of the year and will be visible all night long. This is the best time to view Uranus. Uranus helps us to detach from the ego and observe things from an objective perspective. This experience of detachment often leads us into new and unexpected directions. When we allow this process to occur naturally in our lives, it can actually bring liberation and freedom.
October 28 – New Moon in Scorpio. The Moon will be located on the same side of the Earth as the Sun and will not be visible in the night sky. Today, our desires can be very strong. Since there is likely quite a bit of energy present on this day, it’s best to find a way to bring calmness into your space, so that you can harness the energy to your benefit. Take a few cleansing breaths at a quiet time in the evening, sage your space, and chill. This is the time to write down and release what is getting in the way of the experiences that haven’t arrived yet. This will bring the perfect opportunity to create intentions and find peace in your own life.
October 30 – Mercury conjunct Venus in Scorpio. Much will be revealed but people will also go digging for a lot of garbage that doesn’t exist. There will be a fine line between getting to the truth and harassing someone. While in Scorpio, thoughts about relationships will be fixed and intensified. Scorpio needs to have power and this is achieved by getting to the bottom of things. Just make sure you don’t cross the line.
August is the eighth month of the year and the sixth month of the Roman calendar. The Romans called the month Sextilis, which means sixth. Eight years before Jesus was born, the name of the month was changed to Augustus, in honor of the Roman Emperor Augustus Caesar.
The spiritual meaning of August is about “Letting go of Judgments.” When you form judgments, you stop yourself from seeing things as they really are. When you judge others, you are often projecting your thoughts about reality onto them. Those thoughts may not describe them accurately at all. As you get beyond judgment and learn to see people through the eyes of compassion, you will feel an increasing oneness with them.
Illusions come when you look only at the surface of something and don’t go beyond appearances to examine what is inside. You can see the bigger picture of who people are by looking beyond the roles they play. As you do, you are going beyond outer appearances and seeing the reality of their higher selves.
Try to question what you are hearing and reading, don’t accept things just because others do. Follow your heart and believe in your truth, not what others or society tells you is best. As you discover what is true for you, you will assist others in finding a higher way by your example.
The Full Moon of August arrives in time with the start of the traditional harvest season, it’s spiritually associated with the dwindling down of summer and the approaching autumn. This Full Moon of August has a strong lunar pull, causing a great unbalance in your life. Let go of old pain, release what bogs you down, and open your mind to renewed flexibility and clarity.
August is known for many things, including the dog days of summer: International Beer Day (Aug. 2), National Watermelon Day (Aug. 3), National Smile Week (Aug. 5-11), Chinese Valentine’s Day (Aug. 7), Sneak Some Zucchini onto your Neighbor’s Porch Day (Aug. 8), National Lazy Day (Aug. 10), Left Hander’s Day (Aug. 13), National Relaxation Day (Aug. 15), National Tell a Joke Day (Aug. 16), National Eat a Potato Day (Aug. 19), Kiss and Make Up Day (Aug. 25), International Bacon Day (Aug. 31).
People born in August fall under the Sun Zodiac signs of Leo and Virgo. Leos are known to be dramatic, creative and outgoing. Virgos have acute attention to detail and are the people most likely to dedicate themselves to serving. They also are loyal, hardworking and analytical. August borns have difficulty in showing their pain. They are not really comfortable in sharing their struggles with others and keep their pain and suffering to themselves.
August’s month number is 8. In Numerology the sacred number eight is special because when you turn it on its side, it becomes infinity. In China, 8 is a lucky number because the word itself sounds like the Chinese term for prosper. Eight also represents peace and symmetry. August brings us improved decision making abilities, particularly on the 8th of the month.
The original birthstone for August was Sardonyx, and then Peridot was added, becoming August’s primary gemstone. Peridot’s signature green color comes from the composition of the mineral itself—rather than from trace impurities, as with many gemstones. That’s why this is one of few gemstones that only comes in one color, though shades may vary from yellowish-green to olive to brownish-green, depending how much iron is present. Peridot is a crystal of positive power, a talisman for recognizing and honoring the Creator’s frequency of Love, the source of all abundance. Used with right intent, it helps expand one’s ability to receive from the Universe on all levels of life.
