Astro-Inspired Affirmations for August 2024
Hey Bestie! Today’s visionary rant is astro-inspired bc ya’ll know I’m obsessed.
I was laying in my bed the other day thinking about how much I love when the moon is in Gemini. I get the best ideas — they are creative, out-of-the-box, and truly inspire me. Is there any feeling better than inspiring yourself?
So the idea that dropped in was to make some soul care affirmations inspired by the astrological transits of the month. One of the reasons why I love astrology so much is that its “mathematical” energy lends so easily to ritual and creating consistency — in a fun, intuitive way of course!
So, even though it was a few days before the month starated, I obliged the little spiritual nudge. I believe the best way to build confidence in yourself (and your visions) is to say yes to those nudges when they whisper. Then, they will return louder, clearer, and more magical in the future!
So here are your astro-affirmations for August. They are all organized by the transit they are inspired by just in case you want to nerd out about astrological transits like I do!
Don’t be blinded by the dates. You can use any of these affirmations any time — including beyond August. You just might have more awareness of the themes of each affirmation if you use them near or within the date ranges of the transits.
