Welcome to your audio horoscope and month ahead forecast for Leo season Leo season begins on July 22nd. It completes on August 22nd. And for you Leo rules the solar third house. The solar third house has a lot to do with Gemini. Actually Gemini's third sign and this place in the chart rules Communications siblings neighbors how you are socialized how your minds develops your cognitive? How you continue to be socialized and learn I think of this place in the chart really as the mind and of course the mind is expansive everything that we experience in our lives comes through the filter of the Mind as the sun moves into Leo it joins with Mars and over the course of Leo season Mercury and Venus both also join up with the sun and Mars in Leo. So this summer we've got all the personal Janet's kind of traveling together and this brings a lot of attention to whatever area of Life all of them are traveling through so throughout the course of Leo season. There's a lot of emphasis for you on Communications on expression on expressing yourself from a heartfelt space from your centrality Leo as a sign rules the heart and the spine and its Essence is courageous. It takes courage to express oneself. It takes courage to be Authentic and truthful and Leo in its most exalted and its most positive capacity is very courageous. It shows itself. It offers its heart. It is honest as transparent. It's truthful and quite warm over the course of Leo season, you have the opportunity to expand your sense of social connections. There's a lot happening in the fire signs this season Jupiter is in Sagittarius. It's if you've been listening to your horoscopes, you know that this part of your chart has to do with others with your important relationships with your committed Partnerships. And with you in the world as a social being Chiron is an Aries Aries rules your 11th house. This is the place of friends networks your broader Social Circles and how you position yourself in a greater social whole so all of the fire signs are acting together this month bringing a lot of energy into your connections into your communication into your Nation ships throughout the course of the month. The fire science will be aspecting earth and water quite a bit earth and water move down and in Fire and are like Gemini move up and out. So the aspects that are being made this month may bring some tension with them. There may be some friction for you in the space between your connections with other people the need for you to express within those connections, perhaps to express yourself a little bit differently or to engage. Lately, there's a lot of energy for you to be social this month that feels really fun at the same time. The aspects that are being made are calling on you to get in touch with your feelings and to be really practical and of course sometimes fun and feelings or fun and practicality really don't fit together very obviously. So as you move through your month just be aware of your Basic Energy you want to give yourself lots of room to express the seems like a really fun month for a lot of You at the same time I tends to your responsibilities and see if you can find a good balance as we get into the month as I mentioned on July 22nd the sun moves into Leo and then on the 27th Venus follows Venus is the planet of Love wherever Venus is, there's sweetness. There's magnetism. There's good-natured Miss Venus in your third house brings a lot of friendliness into your clothes in connections this could mean Mean siblings neighbors friends who you see fairly often. This could also be co-workers. This is a place where we kind of interact with people a little bit because they're around. So how were interacting on the day-to-day again, this is a place where I think of of being socialized and so our social experiences that our day-to-day not entirely exceptional but regular or normal. I'm actually going to boost from Venus. This could be really nice for your general mood. This could also be a really nice for your communication. And for those of you who are working with your communication. You can use Venus's support right now to bring Beauty and elegance into your words and what you're expressing on July 31st. There's a new moon in Leo a new moon is always a great time to set intentions for a new cycle or a new beginning the cycle that begins on the 31st could be thought of of as a 12-month cycle from the new moon in Leo and 2019 to the new moon and Leo and 2020 think ahead. How do you want to work with your communication over the course of the next year? How are you developing your mind. What is going on in your mind these days Gemini is known for being a very mental sign all of the movement through Leo this month suggest that you have a lot of creativity and possibility for For romance for enthusiasm and optimistic thinking and you might want to think about how over the course of the next 12 months you can position these kinds of sentiments or perspectives for your best benefit. The fire signs working together suggest opportunity that comes from good-natured - that comes from enthusiasm on July 31st Mercury also turns Direct in cancer. Yuri had stationed retrograde in early Leo had made its way back into cancer and is now trading direct and we'll move back into Lyon a couple of days this retrograde stimulated, of course your third house where Leo is this is the house of communication and the mind and cancer for you rules the house of values value systems and earned income so this is a place where you sustain yourself and also where you choose what sustains you what is valuable to you, what do you invest in The course of the retrograde there may have been some important realizations in this area that also have to do with your social experiences. You may understand a little bit more about your own energy how you want to be in giving and receiving Dynamics with people who are important to you. What kind of time you need or what kind of experiences you want to have that you're willing to put your time into this kind of reflection on your values may also innate some mental Tendencies for you. Maybe you've noticed that you're spending a lot of time thinking about certain things that you don't necessarily want to be thinking about there might be patterns around anxiety or other kinds of mental preoccupation that you're recognizing you can let go of and perhaps part of what allows you to let go of them is some new kind of emotional understanding around yourself and again around your time and your interactions so as mercury turns directly. Back to you may be ready to have any important Communications that you need to have with people with situations that allow you to free up your mental energy a little bit more. Please check back in with me on the new moon. I always offer some kind of New Moon support a ritual meditation or an embodiment on August 11th Jupiter turns Direct in your opposite sign Sagittarius Jupiter has been retrograde since April 10th. This retrograde has brought a reflective capacity into to the space on your chart that has to do with important relationships committed Partnerships in your social self for the last four months think back on experiences that you've been having in the social realm and with any important Partners what Jupiter wants ultimately is for you to grow in your capacity in yourself knowing and your understanding and in the meaning you're making there is quite a lot that's been going on for you over the last couple of years. It's asking You to stretch your capacity for intimacy for vulnerability. There is a lot of demand I think on your integrity these days especially in relationship this spring and summer you may have had some important understandings about how you function and relationship and how you learn and grow through them as Jupiter turns direct it will start to make its way through the rest of its course through Sagittarius and in December will enter the following assign Capricorn over the course of these next five months or so, you'll have the chance to really apply any lessons that you learned and to continue of course learning them, but now putting them into action also in August 11th year rawness turns retrograde and Taurus Taurus is the sign that immediately precedes yours and this sign for you describes the Deep unconscious the kind of invisible space in the chart where you access The collective energy where you access the spiritual realm some astrologers call it the house of cell phone doing because it is where we lose a sense of separate self. That's where the ego dissolves you're honest here brings Awakening brings Revelation it brings Innovation since this past spring you're honest has been stimulating this part of your chart. This is quite a long Transit. The planet will be here for the next seven years my sense of what this Transit can mean for you. Are you is a big expansion in terms of your psychic capacity? For those of you who are working with your psychic sense. This can also bring a lot of breakthrough and understanding of your deeper psychology deeper habits and patterns and how you've been in trained. So if we think back to the meaning of Leo for you and your chart how you've been socialized how you've been taught to learn and how you've learned to. Think this movement with your honest actually might illuminate quite a lot for you in terms of very early conditioning societal cultural familial influences. Your honest will be retrograde until January of 2020 and it turns Direct on the same day that a really important Transit happens. And if you've been checking in with me for a while you're familiar with the conjunction of Saturn and Pluto of coming in January 2020 over this next. A span of time five months or so that you're honest is retrograde Saturn and Pluto are moving into an exact conjunction and for you this movement this Transit brings a lot of intensity into your deeper psychological spaces. This is the subconscious realm as well as the unconscious realm. There may be a lot of content surfacing for you that becomes available after having not been probably for your whole life or maybe for most of your life. Really deeply buried memories could surface again. You might have understandings or realizations about how you have become the person that you've become this could be intense. Of course, whenever we come into contact with these parts of our beings. There's quite a lot to unpack. There's a lot of processing to do. I really want to encourage you to be working with guides and helpful professionals therapists are great for you right now journaling. Checking in with astrology with tarot with other forms that are going to help you contextualize your experiences. I really can't recommend that enough at the moment and it seems like you're really ready and ripe for some pretty important breakthroughs and a lot of spiritual growth a lot of psychological growth. Also on August 11th, very big day in the world of astrology Mercury will re-enter Leo as mercury comes into Leo, of course it joins Venus and Mars and the Already there this brings your ruling planet the planet of communication of mental intellect and cognition into the third house of communication of mental intellect and cognition. So all of these planets are now moving through your third house. There's a ton going on in the mental space a ton going on in the social and communicative spaces. I think all of this energy could be really fun again. There can be a lot going on for you socially. A lot of friends a lot of interactions, but there could also be some overwhelm and I really want to encourage you to let your brain relax, especially as we get into the later half of August. There's just so much filling your attention. You definitely want to be having fun. If you're having fun your brain is probably relaxed. But if there's a lot going on and you really stimulated this summer or winter depending on which hemisphere you're listening from. Please make sure that you do give yourself some downtime that you're getting enough. Leap that you are getting enough quiet and space where you can reflect on August 15th. There's a full moon in Aquarius a full moon is always an opposition. So the moon will be Illuminating. All of the Leo energy Aquarius is the opposite sign is Leo for you Aquarius rules, the solar ninth house. This place has to do with big Vision Adventure higher meaning philosophical and spiritual Quest sits. Where you reach it. How you discover your purpose? It's thinking about the kind of meaning that you want to make for your life and what it is that you're here to pursue. This is an exciting full moon. That's my feeling of it. Aquarius is a fellow are sign and this might bring some interesting Revelation illumination or ideas about longer-term purpose opportunities ways that you can expand there may be opportunities for Unit travel or some kind of stimulation for you to really be broadening your perspective around the full moon on August 15th. Mercury's Shadow is also complete that means its retrograde cycle is fully finished think back on the last two months or so Mercury is retrograde cycle. Its shadow began on the summer solstice. That was June 21st. So as you reflect back on these last two months just consider any ideas that you've had for new. Ooh projects or ways that you want to again be engaging socially how you want to be using your mind any Revelations that you've had around your own energy things that you've been thinking about starting our Now astrologically supported to move forward on August 17th. Mars will move into Virgo on August 21st, Venus will move into Virgo and then on August 23rd, the sun will move into Virgo a couple days after that mercury will also move into Virgo so we've got this Movement now of all the personal planets traveling into your 4th house. The fourth house is the place of Home family bonding and anchored nests as we move into the last week of Leo season, there's support for you to get grounded to get routed to start thinking about stability in different ways this coin sides and kind of moves with this process that I had mentioned before about this. Psychological subconscious and unconscious awareness that's growing for you as we get into the end of the summer. You may have some important understandings about how you can support your own psychology mental well-being and spiritual well-being. It's important or will be important at this time for you to give yourself. Whatever it is that you need to help stabilize you and this maybe connection with family paying attention to your home engaging in activities that Really grounding or giving yourself some kind of practice or other kind of space where you can just connect with whatever it is to you that feels like an anchor and that feels like a root check back in with me on August 23rd for the month ahead for Virgo season, and that's what I have for you for now.
