Welcome to Intuitive Astrology with Molly McCord. Thank you so much for joining me today as we take a look at the astrological energies from August 7th until August 14th, where we only have two days of astrological energies and the rest of the week is quiet in the cosmos.

Fewer transiting aspects are unfolding over the next seven days,

and this is going to give you opportunities to catch up on what you need more energy to focus on,

perhaps more time to reflect and review. There's also going to be energies that support your

emotional processing and anything that's going on in your internal experience. So I'll touch on

those matters a bit more in today's show, but I did want to share that we've had some big energies going on on the sun.

Now, we are moving through solar cycle 25, which is when we historically have peak activity on the

sun. There is a new giant sunspot that has emerged. It is sunspot AR 3780 and it can absolutely unleash those

X-class solar flares. This sunspot is turning towards the earth right now, so we can anticipate there could be more

solar flare activity and a lot more energetic transmissions from the sun. There were also two

X-class solar flares on August 5th. Now, these were not directed at Earth, but they can be hitting our planet's

magnetosphere, but it's like they skim by the Earth. And those are expected to be felt late on

August 8th and August 9th. So the sun being so active right now, of course,

fits in with the astrology of the sun moving through Leo, which is the sun's home sign. But as we

know, we've had a lot of solar activity over the past year. And so it's simply increasing and we are learning how to ride

those waves. We're understanding how energetically sensitive we are, what can show up out of the

blue, like if you just feel exhausted and you need a nap, or you feel invigorated and ready to go like you just feel energized out of the blue

with these particular solar energies there tends to be more of an extreme pendulum of energies

so it's like you feel on top of the world and then you feel like you can't do a single thing and we are being guided

to moderate these energies as best we can which isn't always the case but to understand too

that we are capable of trusting what our body needs and working with our body instead of allowing the mind

or expectations or whatever it might be to override what your physical vessel needs.
