The Weekly — August 9–16, 2026

Hello my peeps, welcome to this week!

We are walking into one of the most spiritually charged weeks of the year. We have a powerful total solar eclipse in Leo on Wednesday, August 12, the energy of the Lionsgate Portal still surrounding us, and a message from Spirit reminding us that we cannot keep asking for a new life while remaining loyal to an old version of ourselves.

This is a week of decisions, revelations and new beginnings. Pay attention to what is illuminated, what suddenly changes and what you can no longer pretend not to know.

Ask yourself: What am I ready to build? What decision have I been postponing? Am I choosing from faith or remaining still because of fear? If I truly believed God was guiding me, what would I do next?


Angel Number of the Week: 888

🪽 The angel number for this week is 888. In my teachings, the number 8 represents power, authority, abundance, financial prosperity and the manifestation of our goals. When the number appears three times, its message is amplified.

🪽 888 is a reminder that abundance is not merely money. Abundance is having enough energy, love, support, wisdom and opportunity to fulfill your purpose.

🪽 This number also asks us to examine the energetic exchange in our lives. Where are you giving too much and receiving too little? Where are you blocking yourself from receiving because you do not feel worthy? Where have you confused struggling with being spiritual?

🪽 This week, allow the energy to circulate. Be grateful. Be generous. Know your value. Stop shrinking your gifts to make other people comfortable. I am worthy of receiving the same love, energy, support and abundance that I so freely give to others.

I am worthy of receiving the same love, energy, support and abundance that I so freely give to others.


The August 12 Total Solar Eclipse in Leo ♌️

On Wednesday, August 12, we experience a total solar eclipse and New Moon at approximately 20 degrees of Leo, peaking astrologically at approximately 1:36 PM Eastern.

Astronomically, totality crosses areas including Greenland, Iceland, northern Russia, Spain and a small portion of Portugal. Other parts of the Northern Hemisphere will experience a partial eclipse.

Spiritually and astrologically, a solar eclipse is an intensified New Moon. It can close a chapter while simultaneously planting the seed of something completely new.

Because this eclipse occurs in Leo, it shines a light on identity, courage, creativity, leadership, visibility, children, romance and the heart. Leo asks: Who are you when you stop performing for approval?

This eclipse may reveal where you have been seeking attention instead of genuine recognition, hiding your gifts, giving your power to someone else or remaining in a role that no longer represents who you have become.

You do not have to force an answer on eclipse day. Eclipses unfold over time. Observe what comes forward, write it down and allow Spirit to show you the complete picture.

ECLIPSE SAFETY
Never look directly at a partial solar eclipse without proper solar-viewing protection. Regular sunglasses are not safe. Use approved eclipse viewers or an indirect viewing method.


What the Eclipse Means for Each Sign ☀️

Read for your rising sign first, followed by your Sun sign.

♑️ Capricorn
This eclipse activates transformation, shared finances, intimacy and energetic attachments. Examine what you owe, what is owed to you and which emotional contracts are ready to end.

♒️ Aquarius
Relationships are being illuminated. A partnership may deepen, change or reveal its true purpose. Stop abandoning yourself to maintain peace with someone else.

♓️ Pisces
Your routines, health, work and daily responsibilities require a reset. Spirit is showing you that exhaustion is not proof of your worth. Create a life that supports your well-being.

♈️ Aries
Your creativity, romance, confidence and joy are awakening. Something inside you wants to be seen. Stop treating your happiness like an unnecessary luxury.

♉️ Taurus
Home, family and emotional security come into focus. You may redefine what home means or recognize that peace is more important than preserving an old family pattern.

♊️ Gemini
Your voice has power this week. Important conversations, news or decisions may change your direction. Speak clearly, but listen closely to what is not being said.

♋️ Cancer
Money, self-worth and personal values are highlighted. This is not only about what you earn; it is about what you believe you deserve. Stop discounting yourself.

♌️ Leo
This is your eclipse, Leo. You are stepping out of an old identity and into a more honest version of yourself. The spotlight is returning, but you must decide what you want it to illuminate.

♍️ Virgo
Rest, closure, spirituality and the unseen realms are calling you inward. A hidden truth may surface. Give yourself permission to release what your soul has already completed.

♎️ Libra
Your friendships, audience, community and future dreams are shifting. Some people may no longer fit where you are going. Make room for relationships that recognize who you are becoming.

♏️ Scorpio
Your career, reputation and leadership are being activated. You may be asked to step forward, accept greater responsibility or finally own the authority you have already earned.

♐️ Sagittarius
Your beliefs, education, travel and spiritual direction are expanding. The world may be asking you to think bigger. Do not allow an outdated belief to become a cage.

Come with your questions, your stories and an open heart. You never know what Spirit is going to say - but you already know we are going to tell the truth!


Spiritual Assignment for the Week 📚

Write down one decision you have been avoiding. Underneath it, write: What would I choose if I were not afraid of disappointing anyone?

Do not judge the answer. Do not immediately act on it. Simply allow yourself to tell the truth. The eclipse is not asking you to become somebody new. It is asking you to stop hiding the person you have already become.

Remember, my peeps: God does not bring you this far just to leave you standing at the doorway. The road may not be completely visible yet, but the Two of Wands reminds us that the next chapter begins when we finally choose a direction.

I love you all. Protect your energy, trust what you are being shown, and I will see you Wednesday night on The Jae Rae Show. ✨
