Thank you for listening to your month ahead forecast and audio horoscope for Leo season. We have season begins on July 22nd. It finishes up on August 22nd. And for you Leo rules the part of your chart that has to do with the Big Ideas. These are Big Ideas about your work in the world kind of how your vital creative unique energy gets received and perceived by Is this place in the chart has to do with your networks your sense of social world of social life and also any social projects that you're involved with. So these could be humanitarian or some kind of organizing. This is where your idealism comes forth and your hopes and your worries about the future Leo is a wonderful sign. It is exuberant. It is optimistic. It is highly creative. It's really Formative this is where you can really shine Leo is the ruler of our hearts in our spines. But also each of us as unique personalities and individuals. So one way to think about this is when you're kind of doing your work in the world when you're out with a community when you are directing your efforts into some kind of cause that is Meaningful for you you're shining you're happy. The inner sun is radiating. And there's a lot of stuff going on in Leo throughout Leo season, all of the personal planets will be moving from cancer into Leo as the season goes on. So this is the movement from your solar tenth into your solar 11th house. This movement is the progression into Community from a place of vocation over the past month or so, you may have been working in some way in the world that is bringing you into more of a public Spotlight for many of of you this is going to have to do with your vocation your career some kind of professionalism or place of authority that you hold or that you're trying to hold that you're building for yourself. And as we get into Leo season your attention and your awareness starts to move out into the communities surrounding this work potentially or maybe completely different but there's definitely a shift from a focus on your Ambitions your achievements again what you're trying to build into More of a social project with all of the movement in Leo throughout the month. The planets will be making several aspects to earth and water Leo is a fire sign and fire moves up and out earth and water move down and in the aspects that the personal planets are making to the transpersonal planets or the outer planets in earth and water may bring a certain need for slowing down for taking time for getting pregnant. Eric and connecting and and depending on your unique composition your chart and how much fire air earth water balance. You have what your Elemental makeup is. This may be more or less comfortable for you on the kind of negative end of the spectrum for people that are really fire and are predominant. These aspects are bringing maybe a fair amount of tension aggravation. There's a feeling of definitely Eating to shift into a new framework and a sense of again slowing down being practical figure out how to apply your energy in a way that is sustainable and working on sensitivity. So these needs with fire as I said sometimes and for some people this is going to be a kind of frustrating experience, but ultimately it helps you it helps you grow. Oh this fire the sense of passion and optimism that you have in this part of your chart. So the sun moves into Leo on July 22nd, as I mentioned it will move through the sign of Leo until August 22nd on July 27th Venus moves into Leo where it will travel until August 21st Venus is your ruling planet. So therefore it's really important planet for you Libra in its rulership in association with Venus. Has a lot to do with Beauty with aesthetic but also with diplomacy and a kind of equilibrium or Equanimity that you can bring to a social situation and as Venus moves into Leo and into this part of your chart that has to do with groups. It feels like you're really just kind of in your element in a certain way and whatever groups you happen to be around or friends or if you're engaging with some kind of like ideation or envisioning process. This is really going to make you happy and it's definitely a place where you can shine Venus brings love and beauty and magnetism wherever it is that it travels. This is a really nice time for you to be social and to put yourself in social situations to get out there and again to also engage any kind of ideation or visualization envisioning project projects or process on July 31st. There's a new moon at 8 degrees of Leo. And the new moon is always a great time to initiate a new beginning and this new beginning is one way you can think of it is as the start of a 12 month cycle. So from this new moon in Leo and till the new moon in Leo in 2020 typically one new moon and each sign per month. So think forward into the next year of your life. What are you wanting to cultivate in this part of your life again Friends Network? Twerks a sense of social responsibility or social participation humanitarian projects and ways that you are working towards some kind of future hopes or future goals. This is also the day that mercury turns Direct in cancer. And once again cancer rules the part of your chart that has to do with your vocation your Public Image what it is that you're building and what it is that you're achieving this Mercury retrograde began in Leo. It's moved back into cancer and in just a couple days Mercury will move back. Tulio again to complete the cycle. So with Mercury retrograde we have the mental capacity and the language function Otherwise Known, perhaps as the mind turning in on itself and it looks to me like this Mercury retrograde has been time for you to really consider what kind of impact you want to have how you are the most effective in your chosen path or in your chosen field or whatever it is that you're applying yourself to right now what this means for you. And a greater social sense and the opportunities that can come from it. But also how you want to position yourself emotionally cancer is an emotional sign and Leo has a lot to do with our personal happiness. And so there's something here about you really kind of feeling into the ways that you want to be authentic and heartfelt and maybe some kind of question around what you want to get out of an experience. On the new moon day. I'll be putting out some kind of meditation or ritual Donner this lunar energy. So please make sure to check back in with me and embodied astrology on July 31st. August 11th is a very busy day astrologically Jupiter is turning direct. Your honest is stationing retrograde and Mercury is entering Leo. So Jupiter is stationing direct after a four-month retrograde it turns retrograde on April 10th for You the sign Sagittarius were Jupiter currently is rules your solar third house. This is the place in your chart that signifies communication and the way that you learn and also the way that you are socialized. So socialization is an ongoing process throughout your life. It starts when you are born and continues until you die, and it has to do with who's around you and what's normal and how you You are coming into contact with different points of view and whether or not you're open-minded and how you're communicating and how you're using your mind and your intelligence to get along with people and for the last couple of months Jupiter in this part of your chart has been in a more self reflective cycle. Anytime a planet is retrograde. Its energy is turned inward Jupiter is known as the guru or the great teacher in the astrological lexicon. This is the energy that wants A help you grow and make meaning out of your experiences and Sagittarius is also a fire sign and so Jupiter in Sagittarius is aspecting all of the planets that are moving through Leo. This aspects to me gives me the idea that you're working on communication in a different way. I think you're recognizing something about how you come across and how you can come across you might be going through some kind of growth process. In terms of what you are aware of and you're perceptive capacity. So there's something called premotor focus and it's basically how we prepare ourselves to focus and you can also think of it as bias what we are prepared to focus on because we're paying attention to it and it seems to me like you are recognizing something about your mind and the way that your mind is set up and this is leading to some kind of new insights for you. This is great. This is lending to an overall sensation of healing and positivity in your relationships. And I definitely want to encourage you to continue to do this work around exploring your communication capacity how you're listening how you receive information and how you share yourself with others through your articulations. Jupiter will be in Sagittarius through the end of November and you can just continue kind of keeping this as an idea until then if that resonates for you. On August 11th, as I mentioned before you're honest is also stationing direct. Your honest is moving through Taurus. This is the solar Eighth House in your chart. The solar Eighth House is the place where we come into intimacy's where we experience a vulnerability where we encounter in Securities where we kind of experience a deeper level of emotional stuff that can get really stuck. Times this is the place in the chart that feels like a swamp and emotional swamp. And your Rod is coming into this part of your chart is stirring things up. It's turning things. It is asking you to pay attention to your Shadow material to look at feelings of insecurity competition kind of the more subvert or subliminal Communications between people and I think this is part of what's going on for you. And your communication style because something is Shifting for you and how you're reading people right now. And this is a really great development with your honest in this part of your chart and as it turns retrograde, it's helping you to understand how you position yourself Within These arrangements and it seems like you are figuring out some way of being vulnerable and intimate or close and emotionally. And asking for what you need and dealing with other people in this kind of potentially intense emotional space in a totally new way and that feels really exciting. So again over the course of the next five months until January 12th, your honest will be retrograde in this part of your chart and this is a really amazing time for you have for you to have quite a bit of insight into how you are engaging in these more kind of under the surface subconscious or subliminal ways. Finally on August 11th Mercury moves into Leo and wherever Mercury is our thought process follows and we have stuff to talk about. So the planet of communications is moving into your solar 11th house into the sign Leo. This lens to this feeling of you being in a very social space of you having encounters with a lot of different people with a lot of different kinds of people and really getting to share yourself in a way that to me seems like maybe it's pretty fun. I hope it's pretty fun. August 15th, there's a full moon in the sign Aquarius Aquarius is the opposite sign of Leo and a full moon is always an opposition. So we've got the Sun and all the personal planets in Leo and the Moon in Aquarius reflecting all of that light all of that energy the moon the full moon is going to light up your solar fifth house. This is the place in the chart that represents your specialness your uniqueness your creative Joy if you have children, And they might be a big part of this full moon energy. And what's going on for you as well the balance between Leo and Aquarius in your chart has to do with the balance between your specialness as a unique individual and you with groups. So as I've talked about already Leo and your chart is this place where you're encountering groups where you're one of a social whole you get to be that libran social butterfly perhaps or you recognize your non specialness in some ways you get to be part of a community. City and in the the full moon, we get to encounter your uniqueness your specialness. And this may be a feeling of heightened emotional sensation as many full moons are but this could also be a really lovely full moon for you to just kind of absorb a little bit your own creative pleasure your romantic side your playful side. The 5th house is a really fun place. And it's where you are in your heart. You are having a good time and it just feels like a very potentially very social experience for you with everything that's going on in your 11th house to now as we get into the later half of Leo season everything starts to move into Virgo. So on August 17th Mars moves into Virgo on August 21st, Venus moves into Virgo Mars will be in Virgo until early October Venus will be in Virgo until Timber 15th, then on August 23rd Leo season ends the sun moves into Virgo and on the 29th Mercury follow suit. So we've got all the personal planets and the Sun now moving from your solar 11th house into your solar 12th house and this is definitely a shift. This takes you into a much more private and kind of low key space. You may really be feeling the need to rest to go inwards to check in with your intuition. You might really I need to go offline. If early August brings up a lot of busyness for you a lot of social experiences or needs for you to be encountering and engaging with others. Then as we get into the later half of the month and September you will probably be wanting to recover in a certain way and really come back into your own energy. So all in all this feels like a very social month, it feels like there's a lot that's happening for you in. Many different layers of your relationships and how you're communicating and how your understanding your own predisposition and kind of set ups around communication, but also around just engagements friendships relationships how people are coming together. You're learning a ton from the people around you and you definitely want to treat the people around you as you're respected and revered teachers fire signs can always go far with generosity. With optimism and enthusiasm and if you share that with the people around you over the course of Leo season, it's definitely going to be to a good effect.
