AUGUST 2026- THE BIG PIVOT IS HERE!
Welcome to Yildiz Readings 5d & our astro forecast for the month ahead. I am late this month in the mix for our online update, however it is key we look at the month ahead.
This for many that are less aware of transits could just feel at first like a normal month. But no this is by far looked upon as a stock standard month. Many have also of late felt like something has to give. Well here we are in that soup bowel together.

NODAL SHIFT
Nodal shift on the 18th of August 2026
North Node Enters Aquarius
South Node Enters Leo
So where are the shifts happening & why is it important you may ask? Well number one we are exiting a nodal cycle that kicked off 2.5 years ago. Meaning that is having a wrap up. The other is the entry point into a new chapter that many generally may not be as prepaired for.
Its Eclipse season aiding or shaking up those areas. More over Mercury still in shadow with Mars shifting soon into cancer could be interesting.
Now as we have cycles in life, what you may not know is our astrology is very much like such. Like the seasons, astrology and the likes of what we call the Nodes shift our global and personal cycles.
As we move through this month keep that through in mind. Be aware that changes are more possible at this time, try to stay as grounded as possible. Try also unless necessary to avoid major decisions until a few days after. The dates are as follows. The 12th of August & the 28th of August 2026.
Again those cycles like the ocean come in and out, this is a deep cycle we are moving through collectively. Each 2.5 years we have what we call the nodal shift. This set the tone for the new 2.5 year cycle we become very much like the archetype of the sign it falls in. On this occasion it will be Aquarius & Leo.
It is said we have become stagnant in the area of the south node. It sits in leo so what could that be? Well lets get its not just you, its the country you live in, the subjects Leo link to and you as an induvial. It has many layers here.
You can go to astro seek birth chart and put your details in, or book a session for added support. When would i get a chart read or wish to know.. Well this will hit your chart you for the next 2.5 years more over what we are all moving through is BIG. It has its benefit's, challenges and being aware gets you ready for it all.
THE GRAND WRAP UP- THE CLOCK STRIKES TWELVE!

Now we know where we may be going, but what is cropping up to wrap up. I think its key to take a look at this area. This will after all hold some very big endings. Every so perminant as a matter of fact.
I send my love out to you all what ever area this hits. For some these ending do depend on where it hits your chart. Is it your status, single to couple couple to single. Or could it be going up the ladder or an image change.
Thats the 1st house as an example, regardless in some ways an ending will occur. For some it could be what you had been working on. For some this could be a choice or one that just occurs. It will emotionally be a collective energy more over.
The big questions of life, comming to terms with endings. Faith, values, peace, dreams. We were forced to go with the flow & maybe vieiwng others with their own plight. You may have ppl around you experiencing loss. Loss of a pet, a loved one, or comming to terms with your souls path.
Where you may have felt isolated, you may be called to join groups. To network and move into inclusion. Its an intersting time of transiton. Id say from highs to lows are very much possible this month. But the new will feel fresh, like new clothing we need to ease into.
Now in saying this one thing that also holds a lot of weight is where our North Node was. The very energy of Pisces has been hovering around in our life for quite a while.
I feel its important to re address his travels & the weight this sign held in our life. Both indivually & as a collective. Now regardless of the astro talk, its mainly to give you some context of where and what it all means.
Chiron in Pisces back around 2011 to 2019 was deep a lot of shadow work. Then we had Saturn in Pisces from March 7th 2023 where it stayed until May 2025 shifting into Aries for its introduction.
On September 2025 it then moved back into Pisces for its last wrap ending in February 2026. It then moved back into its now position in the house of Aries. Yes its retrograde at the moment.
Now Saturn didn't do its lap without Neptune in Aries. It moved into the house of Aries April 2011 until August 2011 until January 2026. It now sits in the house of Aries.
So not only did we have our placement here from 2011 but we had the great conjunction and Pluto shift come 2020.. We all know what happened around that time. Pluto more over hadn't been in Aquarius for around 249 years. Yes big!
SO WHY IS THIS BIG?

I think its key to understand the psychology behind this placement. It is connected to the 12th house and like Cinderella needing to be home before 12 well we are here!
Having moved through this i also feel its like we are looking to our past. We are fearing the future we are like can i go home. Now let me paint a picture for you to give you an image. After ever year we get tot he end and we just want to exit stage. I so get it, but if we knew that time was gone or that we had achieved gravity we would pause and pay it respect.
You have changed through this, its important you were it was all of it. The trial's and tribulations, the dreams and delusions. The faith the peace the privacy. Very Pisces in nature.
So this time will come to a close and it is like saying good buy to a shadow. Endings here will be quite permanent and this world and how it once was will not be the same. We are moving into a very new fast energy of transition, a bold new world.
Now that's not to say this new world that is to be written wont be carved from the old into the new. You are here and you in its very nature will shape its core.
Now endings in the house of Pisces can during our Eclipse occur. However this can span six months. So keep that in mind if you are shifting through a chosen ending. Well the clean up crew can take six months.
SO WHAT WILL BE ON THE MENU
FOR THE NEXT 2.5 YEARS?

So what are we looking at with our nodes shifting signs. What will the menu be for the next 2.5 years. I think its important to see some of the subjects that could crop up.
More over if you do wish to know where they will hit, keep an eye out for the eclipses. Where the occure globally can give some pointers as to some of the subjects and locations.
AQUARIUS
Ok now i will share some of the areas that could crop up. Both indivually, the likes of the topics as well as where. As mentioned about, eclipse paths to come will be key to keep an eye out. They will indicate where events can pop off, more over generally on the oppisit side of the world we also see a mirror event also.
Like they say aquarius, what hits me hits you. Like the "brady bunch" we all live on planet earth. So keep that in mind as we all move through this chapter. We have positive expressions of the north and south node. That is something to keep in mind when dealing with the energy.
With Pluto sitting here ready to shift obs, this time will be dynamic. Pluto in your chart links to grandparents eg. The elder, wisdom, changes like the body moves through.
With both pluto & the north node here, elders speaking and old wisdom.
The ancestors, history, like i said. We gota change.
technology
ai
gold, silver,etc.....
digital id
science
groups
recycling
mining
earthquakes
inovation
community
asperations
astrology
outside of the box thinking.
being ok to be you "The black sheep"
ufo, aliens
astroids
wind
clubs
online work
history
humanatarian
journalism & media
fair laws for common people
social workers
psychology
our nervious system
advances in helth
ai merging with the likes of the body
environmentalists
archology
discovering hidden from the past, eg pyrmids etc...
group lottery winners
groups moving into eco communities
LEO
So this is the place we all have out grown. Its the place in theory that will regardless transform. The change will occure due to the north node and our necessity to push into the north node.
In some ways it makes me wonder, in others it makes sense. The likes of technology to resolve the energy issues. The push for developing it now will be more than ever.
The balance and push could be how will this support or hinder man. I think with Jupiter sitting in the house of Leo, we can also see new laws. New education, expansion of new styles of leaders. Those that listen to the people or are pulled or step down from the roles they played.
So we may as mentioned above see negitive expressions of leo. New styles of leo will come through for us all as well as pivots away from.
changes in leadership
managment
direction changes
ego roles falling from grace
the beauty industry
fashion
the me above we

PLUTO OBS- YEP OUT OF BOUND TM

Historically when pluto goes out of bounds, it is said its vibration, attitude and expression goes rogue. It also gives different expressions depending on weather its declnation is out of bounds to the north or out of bounds to the south.
Now regardless as it shifts out of bounds, its looked upon as going rogue, unpredictable. It dosnt opperate in its usual manner. Its archtype is both Saturn and some do say uranus in nature. So with that very much expect the unexpected.
Historically when pluto has shifted out of bounds to the North the rise of dictators occured. Thus supressing the common mans liberties economic status of the likes.
Now historically when pluto has shifted out of bounds to the South, the rise of the man agaisnt the system. From heroic efforts, groups that desire change, economic inclusion of the likes. Regardless we saw during such times "The French Revolution" & "The American Revolution".
Here we are again in times of great upheaval and change. It dose feel we are comming full circle in the world. More over like a karmic test we as people are being asked to be real, push for inclusion, acceptance of others.
Now pluto in aquarius will be moving out of bound from the 12th of August until the 10th of December 2026. It will however for the 10 years be doing such. So this will be an interesting time.
Although we could say that it looks positive being its in the south. The times in history were still challenging for the people as they were pushed to step up and demand change.
This was a time where the likes of war, poverty and starvation and civil liberties were in question and disolusionment. The modern man had a real fight on their hands.
ALL 12 STAR SIGNS

As we move into the cycle i think its key to give you a look into what you will be dealing with. Yes we know we are coming out of shadow with Mercury Shadow Direct in Cancer.
Mars will also move into the house of Cancer on the the 11ths. Id recomend being aware of security. Subjects of home, safety, defense or defensiveness can crop up.
Those that have placments in Cancer id recomend being extra cautious this month around sharp objects, fire and or anger. You also could feel like you are burnt out and need to take five. No rushing now!
But what about our Eclipse season for all the star signs? Lets dive in and give you an overview. Again i am quite late but this regardless will hit your sign. More over it lingers for 6 to 12 months. The story will be rolling through our life for the next 2.5 years.
