August's New Moon Will Be Painless For These 3 Zodiac Signs

There’s nothing like a spark of inspiration and abundance to end an emotionally charged summer. And boy, could we use the boost after the intense shifts brought by the cosmos. Between kicking off the season with an eclipse moon in chatty Gemini and both Neptune and Jupiter going retrograde in the dreamy sign of Pisces, it’s remarkable that we made it to the other side. And the timing couldn’t be any more perfect, because the August 2021 new moon happens on August 8 at 9:50 a.m. EST (6:50 a.m. PST) in the self-assured and crafty sign of Leo at the exact same time as the “lion’s gate portal,” aka one of the luckiest days of the year! In numerology, the lion’s gate portal marks the time when Sirius, our brightest star, aligns with the sun and symbolizes fortune and lots of abundance. And for the zodiac signs the August 2021 new moon will affect the least, you’ll feel especially affirmed in your creative pursuits and overall self-confidence.

Will New York Finally Get Its First Woman Governor?

When Kathy Hochul’s mother turned 70 years old about 15 years ago, the septuagenarian embarked on a new project to better the Buffalo, New York area. She enlisted her oldest daughter, Hochul, in the project, and together they drew up plans for a transitional home for survivors of domestic violence. At the time, Hochul had been in local politics for about a decade and was serving as Erie County’s deputy clerk. During those early years at the nonprofit, Hochul would babysit for the women who lived there, which allowed them to attend counseling programs, according to the New York Times.

An Astrologer Reveals The Most Emotional Zodiac Signs

Astrology can explain a lot of our earthly affairs such as why we get along better with certain zodiac signs — some signs are known to gravitate toward those who are eccentric or freedom-loving over more serious or practical signs. While astrology can be a useful tool for deciding compatibility between friends, romantic partners, and even colleagues, it can also provide insight into the motivations behind our behavior. As a textbook Aquarius myself (notoriously known as being emotionally detached), I can attest to the complexity of emotions being uncomfortable at times. Often when feelings get overwhelming, I’ll be the first to disconnect from them and look for logical solutions.

I Tried Resistance Band Leggings For 3 Different Workouts

Remember those ab toner belts, the ones from the infomercials that would supposedly shock your stomach muscles into a six-pack? As much as I tell myself I love holding planks, if I could get ripped while watching The White Lotus on the couch, I would. While those ab-jigglers were proven not to work (sad!), the fitness industry has never ceased trying to find shortcuts to make your workout more effective in less time. Enter resistance band leggings, which claim to amp up any activity, from walking around your house to hardcore workouts.

Is A Leo Compatible With Another Leo In Relationships?

A Leo-Leo couple is that one duo who just seems to attract attention wherever they go. They’re always laughing and smiling, and when they move, they’re totally in sync. But what are they really like when it’s just the two of them? When you date someone who has the same zodiac sign as you, the relationship could go either way. After all, your partner’s best and worst traits will be similar to yours. And when you’re dealing with a sign that’s known for being wild, dramatic, passionate, tempestuous, and intense, you can expect a fun rollercoaster of a ride. Leo and Leo’s zodiac compatibility has all the info you need to know on this regal zodiac pair.

Here’s What It Means If You Were Born On The Leo-Virgo Cusp

Every year, the sun transitions out of Leo and moves into Virgo on August 22 or 23 — so if your birthday is on or around those dates, then there’s a chance you identify with the traits of a Leo-Virgo cusp sign. But the idea that people born within the first or last days of a zodiac sign’s season are “cusp babies” (who possess a blend of both zodiac signs’ energies) is actually a myth. There’s no astrological basis for it! That’s because planets can only ever be in one zodiac sign at a time. So even if you were born during the very last minute of Leo season, you’re still a true blue Leo and not technically a so-called Leo-Virgo cusp. I hate to burst any cusp baby bubbles, but as an astrologer, I’m here to spill the cosmic tea.

You can admit it — you said a lot of things back in the '90s that you wish you could erase from memory.

But aside from embarrassing choices, there's also the matter of things you said in the '90s that are obsolete now. As in, if you said them now, the youth of today would look like you as though you were actually from the prehistoric period. Which is how they describe the time before TikTok.

As tempting as it is to turn them, once again, into spokeswomen for an important cause, we need to recognize that they didn’t want this outcome.
