What Your Zodiac Sign Can Manifest This Week Starting August 7, 2023

Only focus on what will truly last. The Last Quarter Moon in Taurus on August 8, 2023, will help you reflect on what you want to rebuild or even dismantle to embrace a more incredible forward momentum. Last Quarter Moons bring you to a time of truth and honesty as you are called to reflect on what has gone on in your life since the Full Moon as you prepare to set new intentions.

The Last Quarter Moon in Taurus brings your focus to the sensual world as you gaze more deeply inward toward what feels good to your soul. Taurus represents your five senses, helping you connect through a deeper perspective and body awareness. Using the manifesting energy of the Last Quarter Moon in Taurus focuses on what you need more of in your life and what you might need to release to achieve it.

It's a time to get personal with yourself and tune into what you want your life to feel like. This isn't about constructing what you think will look good or what you hope to achieve because of it, but deep down, as you sink into your body, the feelings that emerge. What you feel is the true measure of your life. It's what matters most, and in the week of August 7 – 13, 2023, it's also what you will be guided to focus on more deeply to help you manifest not just what you what but what you genuinely need.
