This can be found out by knowing the time and place of your birth. Sites like Astrodienst and Astrology.com offer free birth charts. Once these are known read the corresponding Astrological sign reading.

Hope everyone has a nice Lammas (August 1st) or Imbolc for those in the Southern Hemisphere.

This eclipse phase will last until January 2019 Solar Eclipse. With Mercury being square to Jupiter don’t promise what you can’t deliver.

Full Moon August 26th at 3° Pisces

https://astrologyking.com/full-moon-august-2018/

During this Full moon it forms a kite formation with the Sun, Saturn and Uranus at the corners. Sun trine Saturn brings achievement and recognition for earlier efforts.

Mercury retrograde 2018 starts on July 26 at 23° Leo and ends on August 19 at 11° Leo

https://astrologyking.com/mercury-retrograde/ 

During this time there is an increased risk of arguments, accidents and conflict. Communication breakdowns, travel delays, lost items.  With Uranus Square to the Sun Mars opposition unplanned changes lead to tension and anger.

 Saturn is retrograde in 2018 from April 17th to September 6th, 2018, in the sign of Capricorn.

http://www.lynnkoiner.com/astrology-articles/saturn-retrograde

Saturn rules the physical and psychological supports, structures and framework in our lives. During this retrograde any activities and commitments that are problematic can be restructured and long term commitments can be rearranged as activity slows down during this time. This is especially beneficial to those with Saturn in retrograde in their Natal chart where there is a tendency to say Yes when you shouldn’t agree to the terms involved. This tends to be in areas where Saturn is placed in the Astrological Houses. This is also not an ideal time to take on additional long term commitments.

Pluto is retrograde in 2018 from April 22nd to September 30th, 2018, in the sign of Capricorn.

http://www.lynnkoiner.com/astrology-articles/pluto-retrograde

This retrograde is an ideal time for concentration and seeing subconscious motivations.  The focus during this time is on the internal psyche and psychological issues that affect the body.  It can be a very healing time to recover from long term illnesses.  It is also a time to look at life patterns and revamp ways of thinking and attitudes that are unhelpful, especially in areas of personal power.

Neptune retrograde in 2018 starts on June 18 at 16°29′ Pisces and ends on November 24 at 13°41′ Pisces.

https://astrologyking.com/neptune-retrograde/

A grand trine aspect with Mercury and Jupiter and Neptune. This is a good time for spiritual quests for truth. Neptune retrograde strips away illusions and can show the source of the pain that you are trying to escape. This can be traumatic and shocking. Some healthy ways to deal with the stress of these revelations include Yoga, Tarot, Astrology, swimming and a healthy, toxin free diet. This a time where misdiagnoses are more likely, so second opinions should sought if needed.  Mercury trine Jupiter brings optimism and good news. Planning or setting off for long journeys are favored at this time. Negotiations, signing contracts and legal matters are also favored. Mercury trine Neptune stimulates your creativity, imagination, sensitivity and spirituality.  Poetry, Music, Dance and Drama that embody Harmony are enhanced at this time as well as psychic abilities and intuition.  Jupiter trine Neptune encourages hope, generosity and community spirit. Enlightenment can come through dreams, visions or meditation.  The fixed stars during this retrograde are associated with religious matters and promote business success (Sirius at 14°19′ Cancer) and artistic ability (Alphecca 12°33′ Scorpio) and happiness and success through good morals (Achemar 5°34′ Pisces)

Mars retrograde 2018 starts on June 26 at 09°13′ Aquarius Sagittarius and ends on August 27 at 28°36′ Capricorn. 

https://astrologyking.com/mars-retrograde/

Extra time is needed to take stock and make sure everything is in order before you continue. This is also a time of fated events that may trigger anger management issues. When Mars turns you direct you will be able to act on your desires.  Venus opposite Mars increases sexual tension and physical desires.  Release of this tension would benefit creative outlets of dance, sculpture and exercise.  Mars square Jupiter exaggerates or amplifies the sexual tension. Choose fights carefully and avoid rash actions. Sun opposite Saturn blocks self-expression, during this time so solitary activities that are goal orientated help cope with this type of blockage.

Uranus Retrograde, August 7, 2018 at 02° Taurus and ends on January 6, 2019 at 28° Aries.  

https://astrologyking.com/uranus-retrograde/

 This retrograde is associated with nervous anxiety, spasms, neurotic behavior or rapid personality changes.  Major life changes will get an internal change in attitude and behavior to make this type of change possible.  Lets you process things internally before Uranus turns direct and you manifest the change externally.  Venus square Saturn affects your love life, finances and how you value yourself.  Mars square Uranus creates a need for creative energy to be channeled into reinvigorating your personal life instead of the energy being chaotic and causing upset.  With Venus trine Mars activities that combine beauty with action are ideal.  Saturn trine Uranus is a good time to make changes to streamline your life and try to find new ways to do things.
