The effects of the eclipses in August: unexpected, maybe even unusual happenings, turnabouts, many times for the better. They will urge, maybe a little too much, the clearing-up of negative situations, apparently without solutions, and they will accelerate their handling. They will help overcoming obstacles through love and cooperation.
