The new week beginning on August 4 will bring both fortunate and challenging days. This is due to retrogrades, Mars ingress, and the Full Moon. Exclusively for RBC-Ukraine, Ukrainian astrologer Kateryna Solovyova prepared a full weekly horoscope and explained what to expect each day.
August 4
"This is an unfavorable time for starting new things or making important decisions, as well as for surgeries, dental procedures, and expensive purchases. Visiting a hairdresser, however, is possible," the astrologer said.
She also reminded that Mercury will remain in retrograde until August 11, so it's better to postpone important matters until after this period ends.
On Monday, until 5:51 PM Kyiv time, Solovyova advises avoiding intense intellectual or physical effort. Before this time, one of the most energetically powerful periods will be in effect.
So, before 5:51 PM Kyiv time, it's a good time to sum things up, but it'd be best to refrain from negativity or conflicts.
"Don't complain or feel sorry for yourself: there's a chance of getting stuck in that state. Avoid strain on the cardiovascular system. This period is linked to the defense of justice and the fight against dark forces," the astrologer noted.
From 10:57 PM on August 3 to 2:23 PM Kyiv time on August 5, Mercury will be in the royal degree of Leo. Key traits of this degree in Leo are wisdom, distinction, courage, humanitarianism, and both physical and moral strength.
August 5
"Due to the overall background of the day, do not initiate new activities related to starting a new job, buying or repairing a car or home appliances, long trips, or overtime work," Solovyova advises.
From 6:28 PM to 8:04 PM Kyiv time on August 5, the Moon will be void of course. This state is astrologically similar to Mercury retrograde.
"Normal routines are disrupted, poor decisions are made, actions fail to yield desired outcomes, and confusion, distraction, and false hopes may arise," the expert warned.
August 6
"If you resolve old problems, your body will regain strength. Group work, discussing shared issues, and exchanging information will be helpful. Fasting is not recommended. Rejuvenation processes are activated. Avoid making any promises," the astrologer emphasized.
From 3:09 PM to 5:01 PM Kyiv time, the Moon will be in the royal degree of Capricorn. This degree in Capricorn symbolizes respect and esteem.
"It particularly influences situations involving task execution and goal achievement. It also represents support and help during hard times, and is associated with high self-esteem, life satisfaction (especially later in life), and good relationships with others," she explained.
This time is favorable for organizers, administrators, and leaders.
August 7
"Sadness, sorrow, or melancholy may arise. You can relieve them by doing something useful or engaging in physical activity. Return debts," the expert advises.
Also, on August 7, Mars will enter the sign of Libra.
From 02:24 AM on August 7 to 4:53 PM Kyiv time on August 8, Mars will be in the destructive degree of Libra.
"This degree is associated with judgment and condemnation, loss of reputation, and broken connections. Avoid scheduling important matters governed by Mars during this period," the astrologer stressed.
Additionally, the Moon will be void of course on August 7. Balance the energy with white clothing, silver, or dairy products.
August 8
A crisis-prone, stressful day for the body with emotional tension and temptations. Don't give in to emotions; avoid overloading your nervous system. Do not give in to manipulation, provocations, or laziness. Refrain from sexual activity.
Wrap up earlier commitments, finalize matters, and pay debts.
Until 4:53 PM Kyiv time, Mars remains in the destructive degree of Libra.
"A destructive degree is one of trials and sacrifice: only through trials can one receive help and reward for resilience. It attracts events that cause suffering and challenge your endurance, potentially leading to disillusionment or despair," the astrologer warned.
August 9
At 10:55 AM Kyiv time, the Full Moon will reach its exact phase. According to the astrologer, women are more sensitive to this event than men. The day favors those going through difficulties.
From 10:55 AM to midnight, the Moon will be void of course, which is equated with the effects of retrograde Mercury.
Don't make significant purchases. Don't ask for help. Also, it's not a good day to start anything new.
August 10
"From 3:05 PM to 4:48 PM Kyiv time, the Moon (which governs emotions, psyche, subconsciousness, instincts, feelings, mood, sensitivity, and emotional variability) will be in the destructive degree of Pisces," Solovyova cautioned.
This degree, she says, is tricky, cold, aggressive, cunning, and treacherous. It entangles manipulators in their schemes and suppresses creativity, initiative, and confidence.
