Here is the Ask the Astrologers Weekly Astrology for the week of Aug 2 – Aug 8, 2015:
Saturn goes direct on Sunday, after spending the last 5 months in retrograde motion. This shifts the focus from going back and redefining your goals to moving forward with a new and improved set of plans. This is a somewhat simplified explanation of what happens when Saturn changes direction but it can serve you well to compare it to a car changing gears.

We start the week with a bang as Uranus turns retrograde on Sunday. As with all retrogrades, the planetary energy is turned inward, making those sudden flashes of Uranian brilliance and insight all the more real. Uranus is known as the “great awakener” and loves to shake things up — just to make sure we’re paying attention. It’s a naturally rebellious archetype, but the retrograde makes it less about bucking the system and more about challenging our own deeply personal ideals.

Mercury squares Uranus and trines Chiron on Monday. The square to Uranus can be challenging. It can manifest as an overwhelming need to be “right.” It can be opinionated and argumentative. If you don’t want to risk alienating everyone around you, your best bet will be to bite your tongue and keep your opinions to yourself, at least for the next day or so.

On Monday, Mercury trines Neptune and the Sun squares Uranus. The first part of this configuration is quite pleasant. It opens up the psychic pathways that lead us to our dreams. Mercury trine Neptune is incredibly perceptive. It provides unparalleled access to the collective unconscious. You may find yourself experiencing profound psychic insights or instances of synchronicity and deja vu.

We start the week (on Sunday) with a lovely Mercury / Venus sextile which is good for communications and interacting with others. This aspect is both loving and harmonious; it’s a good time to express your feelings, whether those are romantic in nature or are born of a desire to let others know that you admire and appreciate them.
