We start the week with the lingering effects of last weeks Venus square Pluto still in effect.
This is followed by Mercury squaring Jupiter very early on the 28th. Square aspects tend to cause friction so we may find ourselves a little short with others early in the week.
The big news, however, is that Mars stations direct on the 27th and resumes forward motion on the 28th. The retrograde shadow period for Mars is in effect until the 8th of October, but generally speaking, there should be less of a feeling of being held back in some way.
Retrograde Saturn and retrograde Uranus are still within a one-degree orb of a trine aspect and will remain so until the 22nd of September.
On the 1st of September, the shadow period for the previous Mercury retrograde phase ends. However, on the 2nd, the shadow period for the upcoming retrograde Venus phase starts.
We finish the week with Mercury within orb of a trine to Venus on September 2nd.
All times Central Standard Time (CST).
