This August, Mercury, the planet for communication, will turn retrograde starting August 13th. Jupiter will transit through Virgo, and Saturn, which has been retrograde, will turn direct from August 26th. There are two eclipses this month: The first will be a lunar eclipse, which is on 7th August, and the second is solar eclipse, which will be on 21st August 2017. The partial lunar eclipse will be visible from most of India, Asia, Australia, Africa and Europe. The solar eclipse of the 21st will be visible mostly in Western Europe, North America and part of South America. Whatever may be your desire to go out and view the eclipse, it is strongly recommended to avoid viewing the solar eclipse as the strong sun rays can damage the retina.
With two eclipses this month, the cosmic energy will not be balanced. You will find not many things working out as you planned. There can be unforeseen and turbulent events. There may be commitments that you need to fulfill putting pressure on your mind. The comic energy this time around can make things confusing and you may lose direction temporarily. The challenge is to accept the important changes that are happening and let the transformative powers redefine your future goals. There seems to be a powerful storm shaking things up and bringing instability. In fact, this storm is rearranging your life so that you can emerge stronger going forward. Once this period is over, you will find yourself in much better circumstances. This period that you are experiencing is like the night moving towards the dawn, which will bring you closer towards new and exciting times ahead.
