August Report for Pisces
Pisces (20 Feb ~ 20 Mar)
Mutable Water. Your ruling planets are Neptune and Jupiter.
A climactic month unfolds for you, Pisces, in the midst of a big year. After exploring your uniqueness in new ways for many weeks now there are still a few curve balls that Spirit has left to throw at you. Enthusiastically interfacing directly with the mundane world has not prevented you from tuning in to the infinite with a large part of your attention. These opposite poles of experience are both powerfully present for you in the current month, and you benefit extremely from witnessing and enjoying the dance between them. In the latter half of August you are drawn even more strongly to your life purpose. You are finding ideals of spiritual service at this time all on your own and also through the agency of others.
As the month begins, you are enjoying the forward momentum of the Solar Eclipse taking place in your sector of discipleship to your highest purpose. You are always vaguely aware, perhaps entirely, of your attempts to find the meaning implicit in your days, and now you are even more totally connected with this idea. This refers to your dharma, or that unique task that you have come into this life to perform. Although there is the pleasure side of life, and the avoidance of pain, and love and giving to others, you may be coming to the important realization that life is essentially a hollow exercise without some sense of its ultimate purpose for you and you alone. In the final analysis this sense of meaning comes from finding your true calling. With this powerful lunation, taking place on the very first day of the month, you find yourself engaged full-on in this activity. There is likely to be an unconscious element of dissatisfaction that hinders your search that you will also have to come to terms with as the month unfolds. The First Quarter Moon that comes along a week later, on Friday, August 8th, may represent a few bumps on the road of your progress. You are attempting to understand your life in terms that are greater than the run of the mill day-to-day activity that makes up so large a part of ordinary patterns of endeavor, and this is a time when you must truly step up to the plate and make it happen or else wisely retire your own side and cease trying. This is also a time when you may be forced to recognize that your goals are not entirely of this world, but correspond to the unseen one all around you. You are largely spiritual in your nature. Obstacles you do run into at this point may serve to remind you of the bigger picture implicit in your striving. The Full Moon and Lunar Eclipse that follows another week later, on Saturday, August 16th, represents a sense of culmination, a feeling that you can achieve at least some part of what you are attempting, and brings you to the point of sharing with others what until now has been a more or less solitary exercise. By the time of the next phase of this monthly cycle, kicked off by the Last Quarter Moon of Saturday, August 23rd, you are somewhat older and wiser, and ready, in the words of the aphorism, to accept what you cannot cure. This is a thoughtful time, and again at this juncture you benefit from the mentorship of others around you, who may provide a necessary buffer against the slings and arrows of ordinary reality. There is of course no substitute for your own judgment in these matters. You will want to watch out for and avoid consensus thinking, but you might welcome the feedback and support of like-minded individuals whose views chime with your own. It does take courage to swim against the tide. Building status or a large bank account may have to take a back burner. In ay case it is important to recognize that what you have going on is much bigger than anything quite so simple.
