In this issue we print a very short article about relationships on the working floor, among co-workers and some keen research done by French astrologers.

It's a short article, but a very accurate one! Call it a little gem.

There are no astrological research results this time as there are no conclusive results yet from ongoing projects. More to come for sure as soon as possible.

Enjoy your vacation if you have any!

Love Forecasts for August 2008

In the coming six months, this degree will mark your life, especially if it aspects a personal point in your natal chart.

Because the Solar Eclipse is right at the Uranus/Pluto and Jupiter/Saturn midpoints, a career change, a change of "course" or a move are indicated, especially if you are born around October 3, November 2, December 2, January 1, January 30, March 1, March 31, April 30, May 31, July 2, August 2 or September 2.

Around August 4, Mercury at 18° Leo opposes the Moon's North Node at 18° Aquarius resulting in messages, documents, meetings and encounters that were initiated in the past. The story just continues.

August 6 brings love's sorrow and confusion when Venus enters Virgo, Mars at 22° Virgo opposes Uranus at 22° Pisces and Mercury at 23° Leo opposes Neptune at 23° Aquarius.

These planetary energies can be quite temperamental, explosive and accident-prone. Venus in Virgo does not feel well in the sign of its fall and love is in a rather bad situation. Venus here focuses on cleanness, cleanliness and purity. It can be a very fault-finding position though, resulting in romantic trouble.

The accident-prone Mars-Uranus opposition takes off like a rocket, untempered and fast. Try to be moderate. The Mercury-Neptune opposition creates chaotic situations and confusing moments in which errors and misunderstandings occur.

Around August 10, Mercury enters its own sign Virgo in which it feels very well and becomes annoyingly critical and detail-oriented (the more so because Venus too still resides in Virgo). Your analytical and critical comments may not be appreciated though.

The Sun at 18° Leo opposes the Moon's North Node at 18° Aquarius around August 11 denoting a meeting with some higher-up (father figure) or authority.

Venus conjuncts blocking and limiting Saturn at 9° Virgo around August 13 denoting that feelings of obligation and servitude prevail. Love may be a laborious task. Expect some boring administration to be done too.

Around August 15-16 the Sun at 22° Leo opposes Neptune at 22° Aquarius and Mercury conjuncts limiting Saturn at 9° Virgo making that some separation is in the air. There may be a move, travel or a short trip.

There may be some frustrating moments too.

Around this day there is a Lunar Eclipse at 24° Aquarius, a degree of aggression (terrorism, war, assaults etc...) which is reinforced by the applying square between Mars at 28° Virgo and Pluto at 28° Sagittarius.

Indeed, these are powerful and difficult positions and on a personal level they can indicate separation, emotional shocks and violence.

Mars enters peaceful Libra around August 19. Mars here is in the sign of its detriment though and feels rather miserable. Mars fights for balance and harmony (in relationships too) but seems not to create it easily!

Mars always wants to express itself instinctively while in Libra, the sign of "the other", it has to learn to cope with the urges of "the other" too which is not easy at all.

Around August 21, Mercury joins Venus at 19° Virgo, time for some socializing and love messages.

The Sun enters Virgo around August 22, making that 4 points/planets currently reside in Virgo, the sign of servitude, small animals, health and work.

Libras may particularly feel restricted now but for all signs, there is a lot of work at hand.

Mercury and Venus at 21° Virgo oppose exciting Uranus at 21° Pisces around August 23, making for some unexpected funny and enjoyable but short-lived moments. Also, some love-letters, presents or gifts are a welcome interruption from your daily boring life.

Around August 28, Mercury at 28° Virgo squares Pluto at 28° Sagittarius, bringing some vexation and obsessive thinking. What's wrong, what's so annoying? It's in the small print or in the details.

Around August 29, Mercury enters Libra while Venus at 28° Virgo squares powerful Pluto at 28° Sagittarius, bringing talks about love and resolving some love issues. How will you proceed in your romantic life?

Wait for an answer till Venus enters Libra, the sign it rules, around August 30. Your focus is totally on relationships then. You tend to find balance easily. However, try to be firm too when necessary!

Relationships And The Working-Floor

The theory states that every boss, leader, director, CEO, chief, manager,... needs to count on an assistant because nobody can manage any business alone.

The theory holds that the one the manager can count on (and should be the assistant), is the one whose Sun sign (or stellia of planets in a sign or predominant sign) is the mirror sign (antiscion) of the manager.

What does this mean?

Let's list the Antiscia (mirror signs) first:

• Aries - Pisces
• Taurus - Aquarius
• Gemini - Capricorn
• Cancer - Sagittarius
• Leo - Scorpio
• Virgo - Libra

If you are a Leo and a manager, then your assistent should be Scorpio (your mirror sign) or should have predominant Scorpio traits.

If you are a Libra assistant, you better have a Virgo boss because (s)he will rely on you. The reverse is also true, if you're a Libra boss, you should look for someone with predominant Virgo traits to rely on.

This rule is very interesting and fascinating. It's odd too that this rule does NOT work in love relationships!
