The Astrology of August 2024 

Adam, I love the way you (as a Leo) are supporting these twin Venuses. This is really good group energy, I am happy to experience this in a "spiritual community", for it is still rare. I wish more such group energies for the Earth! 🙏

Adam, I feel for you. A massive 150-year-old California live oak uprooted and fell atop my house in a series of winter storms in January 2023. Thankfully, no people or pets were hurt but the downed tree took out a third of my roof and a fence and destroyed my backyard. I still mourn the loss of that tree, especially after the hottest July on record in my neck of the woods. Glad you and yours are safe!

Really love this group’s energy-y’all bring distinct/unique perspectives to the transits, and complement/support each other well. And as a card-carrying Mars-Saturn conjunction person, I always appreciate when trad astrologers frame the meeting of the malefics as complex and potentially generative, so my deepest gratitude to y’all for that. We know they’re challenging, but I appreciate that I can turn towards Nightlight to get a more spiritually-complex (not sure how to describe it!) interpretation that highlights the potential for generative outcomes from these transits. So hearing y’all discuss this upcoming square in the way you did feels refreshing…! I heard someone once describe Saturn-Mars in harsh aspect as having the potential to be the master craftsman, or the 8 of pentacles, and I think that fits: you know that some things take hard work and discipline, but when you persevere thru those challenges, you come out of it with a skill you’ll have for a lifetime. Like, if you sit with and confront the trials and hardships instead of avoiding them, you can learn how to better cope with similar trials in the future; and that’s something that will benefit you for the rest of your life. There’s friction, but that friction might start the fire you need to not just ‘get thru’ a hardship or big change, but to authentically make bigger changes in how you see the world.

I love this format so much esp w you 3 bright, clever, fun minds. I wish you could hear me talking out loud to you all😂 more more more

As a couple of other commenters noted, I appreciate the complex delineations offered on these talks. Textbook descriptions are true, but they don't capture the nuance and experience in quite the same way. I can't wait to hear you break down these transits in even more depth throughout the month, Adam!

This is my first watching a monthly forecast on nightlight. I usually watch the astrology podcast and while I love Chris and Austin, I loved the different perspectives you added. I will definitely continue watching 🎉

Love that comment by Alexandra about the rhetoric and hype around the Astro weather! Super helpful reminder.

Love this episode ya’ll!!! I’ll be revisiting this more times! I love the conversations and links to the cycles!

Yay, Alex and Whitney, I appreciate you !

Thank you for giving insight to what's going on politically as it pertains to the big picture. This allows people/me, to be able to relate to something that is tangibly going on in real time and put it into words. thx.

I love love love this trio! It is nice to have you partner with two women. So much astrology out there these days is a little Bromance heavy I enjoy the magic the three of you together! So many perspectives thank you thank you!!😊

Thank you, Adam, Alexandra, and Whitney ❤

This was SO good, thank you all! 😊

Coming to America!!!

leo rising here with an august 18th birthday. i am at 10,000 monumental turning points in my life and this birthday has been feeling like a literal rebirth. i am already looking back on my life a few weeks ago and goggling at how unrecognizable things are becoming in the direction of more soulful embodiment. i am ready for the high-contact transit solar return and feeling the potency of what is approaching and becoming.

Yesterday I gave my first paid reading. This episode provided me a ton of confirmation of the energies of the month that I chose to focus on. Thank you! PS I studied under you, Adam ❤

The mid-month chaos in central mutable around Aug 20th in the D12 graphic ephemeris looks so insane. Alot will certainly change, for sure 🙌

Loved this thank you so much! A great informative trio! I loved the bit at the end where you said there’s no Leo season but instead you’ll be out amongst the people to learn! That’s my Leo season to a T! I’m Leo ascendant, getting firmly established in my mission, which is singing in care homes, dementia cafes etc! My diary is full capacity and has been for a few weeks too! All free work to make the connections, after that I’m working donation based and leaving it to the universe! So yes you’re bang on there. 💫

#grabbed During the mars Uranus conjunction my husband had it in his 11th house and I had it in my 4th and he lost his job 🥲 very rough moment for us , the beginning of august we are going to be in Disney , we will see how that goes.

Thank you for the video. May you go to 80k and above by that time. With just a teeny tiny help from the body building community... 💪

Adam, the story makes me think of The Prince & the Pauper. Also King Richard returned from the Crusades disguised, see Robin Hood story. Haha.

Looking forward to your 8th house talk. Natal cancer sun in the 8th, SO MANY questions 🤪

That snarky purple deity might be an expression of Dionysus honestly

I’m definitely enjoying this three person collab. My bday on aug. 22 is looking eventful! And my mothers on aug. 18! 😂

As this is a Libra profection year, Venus as my timelord, I reallllllly look forward to how this Venus story plays out for me, personally. Cap rising ;)

I’m painting a mural and there’s this one spot where we need to dig out the wall a bit and I feel like this will be happening Aug 7 😂 (clearing out the old! And making new things pretty!)

Whitney - can confirm the Leo Asc / Aquarius Sun dynamic of Self as part of the Whole, and Whole as a reflection of Self. Borrowing a phrase from Arthurian literature, "The King and the Land/Kingdom are One". Interested to see what these lunations bring.

Towards the end you mention the trials of a King The Greek king (Odysseus/ Ulysses (to the Romans) can fit the bill. Thanks for the hybrid reading for the month. Such a good way you've created to create together

My 1st grandson is a true Leo sun The personality ! My second grandson was just born during Julys full moon 6 days prior to grandson #1 (brothers ) that 29th degree brought us a cancer sun. Two Leo suns in one house would have been a bit theatrical lol 😂 The Mercury retrograde with cancer and Leo plays right into this ! Interesting 😮

What an interesting discussion / lesson. Thank you all three, 💐💖🙏

Dream team! I am loving this!

Adam’s laugh after she said she was moving 👀👀👀👀 (not me also moving then 😬😬)

Met Alexandra at NORWAC, really cool person.

Yay I am finally off work and I can listen and track transits while you're talking about them

Yes.. it’s a lot. Saturn is on my Jupiter which is my “skipped step”: squaring my sun/Ketu and Rahu.. while Jupiter is now nearly conj my sun/south node.. Pluto transit over my IC and opposite my mars.

Whew… Aries rising here and yeah things are pretty intense. Long story short I have a procedure scheduled for some tooth extractions for a partial denture… that’s tough in itself but it is what it is. My main concern is the potential complications that can come from it due to bone loss. I’m an artist and performer/orator so that’s my biggest concern- that my career in that way is about to be over 😅 I’ve been pushing the procedure off to dive into creating/finishing some things beforehand so if there are any complications at least I have something. Tough cuz I’ve been working on what I want to publish since 2020. Makes me think I should just do it and keep the faith that it’ll be good overall

I very much enjoy your conversations. Thank you 😅

I know just enough to make me dangerous about a lot of things!!😊

Im traveling from California to Columbia during all this...Wish me luck! 😂

I really feel for anyone who has gone through the Pluto Venus opposition and everyone who may be experiencing it now, or is definitely going to be experiencing in this lifetime. My Venus Saturn conjunction in Cancer was hit hard several years ago(Saturn 12 degrees and Venus 16 degrees) and it was by far the absolute worst and most horrifying time frame of my entire life as of to date. I am Libra rising, (29 degrees)Leo Sun, Aquarius (full) moon…so with Venus being my actual chart ruler, I am VERY lucky to be alive!🙏 I don’t want to frighten anyone, but please be careful. I also have Pluto and Uranus in Libra and both are in my 12th house, so that adds another disturbing layer to my own personal experience and Venus is also the ruler of my 12th house and 8th house, and Pluto rules my second house, and Mars rules both my 6th and 7th houses. Not everyone will have an experience as soul shocking as my own…but, please be careful, not to the point of crippling paranoia, of course. I suppose I should add that I have Mars in Virgo(exact on my 10th, 11th house cusp), square Neptune Sagittarius with a loose opposition to my Jupiter in Pisces. 29 degrees Sagittarius on 3rd house, 2 degrees Aquarius, my fourth. For all you pro astrologers, I’m sure that’s plenty of information to guess how all that went! Quite a few storylines woven into all that mess!😅. I also made it through Pluto opposing my Mercury in Cancer not too far behind the Venus/Saturn Pluto hit. Anyhow, God bless🙏! I’m turning 50 on August 3rd, and just taking it one day at a time! 😊 (My most severe, and actually, my 3rd dark night of the soul(and hopefully last!)happened during that phase, and I had a NDE, spontaneous Kundalini Awakening, and as result, I am now clairaudient… I was already previously clairvoyant, and now those abilities have been further enhanced. I am visual Artist, stay home Mom and aspiring Astrolger. I didn’t go through a divorce during that transit, btw. Miraculously, my marriage did survive that transit, and my husband and I started dating in 1998 and married in 2003. We’ve been together for quite sometime with two teenage daughters.(who are Taurus’s, btw! My personal favorite sign!❤❤❤). Students who are curious, especially considering my marriage survived the Pluto Venus opposition…my husband is Aquarius rising, Mars in Aquarius conjunct his Ascendant, Aries Sun, Saturn in Cancer as well, Venus in Taurus, with a Scorpio Moon, Jupiter in Pisces. He was born 1975, I was born in 1974 so our outer plants are not too far apart degree wise. He actually has Uranus in Scorpio, though, conjunct his Moon. My Uranus is in late Libra. He is a 3rd generation Mortician/Funeral Director running his Family’s Mortuary…he has an 8th house Pluto, which I’ve always considered very telling of his profession…along with that Scorpio Moon and Uranus conjunction).

❤ New: is un- der standing above. ☝️🙏😊

Hello

Which biography of Jerry Garcia is being referred to?.. I'd love to get it for my husband.. There are several...

Thank you

Jerry Garcia also a famous Leo ♌️🙏💕🎶

My Mars (conjunct Juno) is at 9 degrees Gemini, and my Venus is at 3 degrees Virgo. So both are returning, with the mercury/venus conjunction being on my natal venus! Also, I'm a leo Sun and Mercury ❤ The mercury and mars are corners of a yod. A friend I've been helping run for Congress also has a primary on August 13th, just before that grand cross. ✨️

His passion for Penelope was classic

SCOTUS progressed Midheaven @ 29°♌️

25:32 An undertaker might have an interesting response to your comment on the theme of beauty.

There's a high probability of violence...which is well known and documented in Chicago for the convention. Many people today didn't learn how the electoral process works and why..it is important to learn! Be a defensive driver and pay attention to your surroundings no matter where you live. all of those squares are active!

Eeks! Guess I should pay more attention to the transits when planning family vacays. May the odds be ever the favor of my marriage as we try to pack during Venus square Mars for an RV for a month long trip 😮‍💨🙄😂

Excellent ❤

Movie - “The Student Prince” fits

Every time I hear the word squashed I think about my step mother who would say about some people “If you were my kid I would have squashed you.” Welp..good luck. I will bounce back like a stress ball.😊

My kids and grandkids are missing.

❤❤❤

💗🦁💗🦁💗🦁

Why do I feel like I'm being threatened by male dominated groups. Communication is restricted my kids are missing, I'm threatened and being asked for ransom money. Police won't take reports for my missing children. I keep getting followed. I can't access government offices for help. What is the problem? I'll study what I want. I'm not Muslim or anything against the government so WTF is the problem with finding missing children?

🙏 🍃🌹🍃

Democratic convention starts August 19.😬

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😂

Rats and peacocks . Hmm.

Lol it's not funny. Come see me face to face.

Rebuiding crap, great.
