This may be a week you will remember for quite a while. Two big events end August and begin September: lunar eclipse in spiritual, dreamy Pisces on August 28 and stern Saturn's entrance into health-conscious Virgo on September 2. It is time to get your spiritual, mental, emotional and physical health on your radar screen. It's time to take care of yourself! August 28: Lunar eclipse in Pisces

Full Moons tend to amp up the emotional life in general and when the full Moon is also a lunar eclipse, the emotions are dialed up even more! Now add in the fact that this lunar eclipse is in Pisces, the most sensitive sign of the zodiac -- and, well, you get the idea. So first, don't overreact to anything; dramatic events are a part of eclipse times, and this one won't be any different. With the Virgo Sun opposite the Pisces Moon, expect to hear about lots of situations having to do with health issues, whether it's people, animals or the planet.

Eclipses are highlighters and bring your awareness to what needs your attention. It is time to get a plan together to make the changes that will make you feel healthier, happier and more emotionally content. Get some time alone and slow down! Connect with your spiritual self; watch a sunset, meditate or listen to a beautiful piece of music. What inspires you? It's time to prioritize your dreams.

September 2: Saturn enters Virgo

Every two and a half years, Saturn enters a new sign. In Virgo, the sign of work, health and service, it's time to conduct a thorough analysis of all the important areas of your life and relationships, including the one with yourself. Ask yourself what is working and what clearly isn't. Are you running your schedule or is your schedule running you? It's time to take yourself and your life more seriously. If you know your chart, pay special attention to the house where Saturn is transiting.
