Strength, Passion & Prosperity - three words to sum up an August Wedding
Here is a month brimming, numerologically, with inner strength, calm power and a capacity for exuberance. There's so much going on in the eight vibration: on the one hand you have inner strength and calm, and all those good feelings of taking control of the situation. On the other hand, all this confidence might make for ruffled feathers and lead to arguments just when you're least likely to be in the mood for tolerating that kind of thing. But don't worry, what you lack in diplomacy this month you more than make up for in shows of luxury and entertainment. Yes, August is the perfect wedding season for high flyers and those wanting to show their union to their world. It's also the perfect month for a union of two highly successful people or on the flip side - two people who are both powerful and passionate in their own ways, joining forces. Talk about energy - August is buzzing.
Its interesting that the vibrational colour for eight is lavender - a colour associated with gentleness and finer things. Perhaps there's a message in that, for August definitely needs a little lending of those finer, softer details to round off the bluntness such vibrational moods inspire. A lavender theme or maybe something as simple as a gentleman in a lavender shirt are all ways to add a bit of polish to what will otherwise be an unashamedly heady union.
Brides, start as you mean to go on ... :)
You won't be surprised to read that the astrological ruling planet this month is hot, powerful and flaming - The Sun. The Tarot card associated with August is: "VIII Strength" and this card is all about inner strength, determination and self knowledge. This last point is an important one. The purpose of this card to to remind the woman drawing an VIII that she should not use her strength to tame another, but rather to stop herself being tamed. In the Tarot this woman robed in white is sometimes called the Enchantress and her white robe and garland indicates her moral as well as physical strength. Again, this plays into the whole eight vibration for August generally where the caution is to know your strength ...so that you don't have to use it.
The eight vibration is not made for soft, romantic weddings, but rather for a happy clashing of the cymbals of passion. Loud, extravagant, showy, brazen - these are all much more the mood for a vibration enjoying its last moments of hot sunshine.
