And what keeps your life functioning? This is your schedule your health regimens your daily routines and The jobs and the chores that you need to do in order to keep your life going and for many people this does include also your job and I think there's a quite a lot of people who work jobs because they need the money and the job itself is not really the thing that they want to be doing with all of their time. So this is still a necessity. It's a practicality. How do you learn what you need? And this place in your chart also has to do With the sense of practical usefulness of you as a being in the world. Where are you useful? How do you feel your sense of responsibility on this planet at this time? What do you want to contribute? How do you want to serve and what is service really? You know, where do you feel like you need to show up for something? So over the course of the last month cancer season there was a lot of energy in your solar fifth house and this place has quite a different feeling the solar sixth house is your joy is Your vitality your essence if you can be doing anything you want to be doing. What is it? How are you really kind of expressing yourself in an authentic way as we move into Leo season these considerations take on. A more practical tone. You may be thinking about ways to make your day-to-day life more fun. How can you structure your time and arrange your life your schedules your regimens Etc to be more aligned with the sense of Vitality and creative enthusiasm. Leo is in conversation all month with the other fire signs, Sagittarius and Aries and for you the The fire science all rule places that have to do with employment with vocation again with this kind of more practical considerations of your life and how it functions including how you earn money and what it is ultimately that you want to be doing. So if this is not about the job that you're doing because you have to do it. What is it that you're really doing here. What's your sense of purpose or ambition? World and there's a lot of stuff going on in these ideas for you right now. Like what is it that you're here for? What are you trying to do? How are you going to sustain it? You're only have one life to live. You have limited energy and resources that the feeling of a momentum of some kind and intensity of some kind to apply yourself and use your energy and resources. In ways that feel good to you is ramping up. This is your one life. How the fuck do you want to live it? You know, it's this kind of feeling of like, okay, let's go Leo is also in conversation with earth and water Leo is in kind of an uncomfortable aspect with Earth and over the course of the month as you kind of are asking yourself these questions. How can I apply myself in different ways. What is it that I want to be doing? Do I take care of myself in a more energetic way you may have to contend with rules. You may have to contend with social expectations. You may have to contend with barriers of some kind and there's going to be a little bit of friction for you particularly in what I'm going to say. Is your mental capacity over the course of the month. How can you project out into the future? Future and how do you narrate the current experience to yourself? Do you see the opportunities when they're in front of you or do you see a rule? Do you see a should or a responsibility when you see a doorway? Do you see a door that can open or do you see a barrier that's been shut and your throughout the month kind of working to expand your mind in some way. But you may also be confronting the limitations of your own imagination quite frankly and like, how can How can you make this thing happen you want to kind of work to lubricate the functions of your mind a little bit and release them just a smidge from too much reality. So let's take a look at what's going on throughout the month. I'm going to look at just a couple of the most important aspects and transits.

So as we get into the There is movement as I mentioned a moment ago from cancer into Leo. So we've got the personal planets in Cancer and Leo right now the sun moves into Leo on July 22nd Mars is already that there it's been there for a couple of months and then on July 27th Venus moves into Leo Venus brings a benefic gentle beautiful quality into this part of your chart. Again, this part of your chart has to do with your day-to-day schedule your regimes your chores. A sense of service and also your health Public Service Announcement your health has a lot more to do with your happiness and your state of mental equilibrium. Then it does just solely with your exercise or your diet. You probably know this. I'm just reminding you that health is a holistic state that includes mental emotional Psychic Spiritual and physical health and as Venus enters the sign you are. That you're probably able to experience your best health or your sense of most complete Wellness when you are happy when you are engaging yourself with activities that you love and that bring you Joy when we're stressed out when we're doing stuff that we don't like our health suffers. So this is a reminder to fill your days with at least some, you know, dance break parties or something or stop and smell the flowers. So to speak Venus. This is in Leo through August 21st, and this gives a sense of peace and enjoyment and again a kind of beautiful quality to your day-to-day. This is a really good time to focus on kind of how you're using your body to engage with pleasurable activities that are Health boosting on July 31st. There's a new moon in Leo. This is also the day that mercury turns direct the new moon is at 8 degrees of Leo. New moon is always a time for a new beginning. And for this new moon. Just consider. What do you want to cultivate over the course of the next 12 months in your health in your daily daily day-to-day life and with your jobs your busyness some of you this may also be with your pets. Actually. I forgot to mention that the sixth house rules pets and relationships to animals. So some of you may also be kind of thinking along those lines, but at this new move Une, there's a lot of support for you to be kind of making space making yourself more available to include what stimulates your heart what brings you Joy in your day-to-day life Mercury is train Direct on this day as I mentioned at 24 degrees of cancer. This is in your solar fifth house. And this is a kind of reminder to bring in your sense of Vitality your fun your joy into your day-to-day think back over the last three weeks of Mercury's retrograde notice what you notice maybe there have been some ideas kind of in the works that weren't quite ready to move forward as mercury starts to speak up pick up speed over the course of the next few days your more and more ready to move these projects forward to kind of start to think about how do you change these more structural elements of your daily life to include more of a heartfelt sense of satisfaction on August 11th, the planet Jupiter ER stations Direct in Sagittarius and Sagittarius rules your solar 10th house. This has to do with your career your vocation your public persona for many of you this again is what you want to be doing in the world that may have to do with career vocation that may be some kind of other quality that you emanate and Jupiter in Sagittarius have the kind of expansive meaning Making knowledge seeking wisdom loving qualities to them Jupiter is a ruler of Sagittarius. So it functions very strongly there. They share these qualities over the course of the last four months Jupiter turned retrograde on April 10th. You may have been in a kind of reflection period for yourself around how do you want to be in your public presence? Really? What is it that you are doing here in In the world and how are you growing and that experience for those of you that have been quite content in your chosen fields or with what you're doing? You may be in a time right now where you're thinking Hmm. I'm ready for just a little bit more where else can I go with this? How can I expand my reach or how can I expand my knowledge for those of you who kind of have flitted around quite a bit as Many mutable signs tend to do you've become very Adept in many many different things Jupiter at the top of your chart may be infusing you with a sense of optimism right now and Adventure, how can you synthesize all these various skills that you have and places of knowledge to form it into something of a unique hole and then as we get into next year, there will be more momentum for you to build on that on August 11th. You're honest. Also stations retrograde on this day and you're honest will be retrograde until January. It turns Direct on the same day that Saturn and Pluto formed their conjunction in Capricorn. So if you're a familiar with astrology, you're very aware of this applying conjunction between Saturn and Pluto and this is a very important astrological aspect. It only happens. Once every 36 years has not happened in the sign for a very very long time and this is bringing a completion. I called to something and I'm going to say that there's a sense that I get looking at your chart that the completion cycle may be resonating on a couple of different levels. So on one level some of you may feel this socially you may feel it with your friends or kind of sense of social network and like your your circle of some kind there may be a very remarkable sense that you are moving into a new phase of your life and that you're ready for a different social experience. And over the course of these next five months with Uranus retrograde in your third house. You may need to be making some kind of shifts with the ways that you're engaging kind of close in with people with your communication style. It's like you want to have different kinds of communications different kinds of interactions. Probably more fun, maybe friends that are meeting you and more of an updated way or sense of social experience that feels like it's Something new not the old thing others of you may be feeling this in terms of more of a broader social sense, but I'm going to call this like your social awareness and this isn't so much about particular relationships as it is the kind of cultural moment. So what's happening in the world of the social and of course, this is a very strange moment on Earth and humanity is in a very kind of bizarre State, you know of Awakening for many and then also of complacency and a lot of fear and this one of the ways I could read this Transit is that your sense of activism is getting a boost that you're starting to feel like you really need to engage yourself in a particular way maybe that you need to engage yourself for the future or you may need to engage yourself. Some kind of political motivation but there's a sense here that you're a little bit Restless in your metaphorical neighborhood. And that neighborhood is like what's close into you? You want to start to shake things up a little bit you're shaking things up again and how you're communicating what you want to be expressing how you want to be thinking about things how you want to be gathering congregating communing with others. And then what the impact is of all of this. This change Mercury on August 11th also enters Leo. So we have the planet of communication entering a sign that is very expressive. And again has to do with your day-to-day life. I get a sense for you that there's a lot of energy and Leo season. There's a lot of motivation that you have to change things up. You want to change things in the structures of your life. You want to change things and how you're relating to people and as mercury comes into Leo in your solar system. Taos you start to get some kind of clarity and downloads is how you're going to do this. Oh, I can change things by making this adjustment. Oh that thing is going to be better over there. I'm going to clear this out. I'm going to organize it this way, but what you are organizing and arranging is around the structure of again, your your happiness like a sense of Vitality and this doesn't have to be flamboyant or grand but I think actually It just feels true. So there's not a lot of drama around it. But there's something to me that just feels true where you're like, okay, you know, I'm the happiest when I wake up at this time of day and I get this kind of practice in and then I read this poem or something like that. I am now going to commit to doing this five days a week and this is the type of clarity I'm talking about where you're like, okay, not a lot of drama. Okay, here it is. This is what I need to do Mercury coming into Leo again. For those of you that have pets. This could be a great time to communicate with your pets. I'm not an animal Communicator yet. I practice it a lot and one thing that I've been working with that. I'd love to just throw out there for any of you with Animal Companions is connection through the heart literally so to kind of like pet your pet to hold them. And to feel where their heart is and to feel from your heart into their heart and just make a connection that way of course humans tend to anthropomorphize everything and imagine some kind of Human Experience on it and animals have their own reality. You know this if you're a Pet Companion, but this is a really good time to kind of connect in to build those channels of connection if that's something that you're interested in on August. Since there is a full moon in Aquarius and Aquarius is the sign just before yours. So this full moon offers some reflection for you into the place of your psyche that is often kind of unreachable this full moon illuminates, the axis of the 12th in the sixth house is a really good time to pay attention to your dreams around this full moon. It's a good time to again kind of connect with the liminal. So whether that's communicating with your pets or your spirit. Guides or talking to this the spirits of your deceased things like this. This is also a really important time for you to notice the way that you are impacted by the collective and by culture in general and again, maybe to just have some intentionality around how you're working with a more Collective energy. Remember to check in with embodied astrology on the full moon as well as the new moon for some astrological and embodiment. Port from me August 15th Mercury's Shadow is complete you are blessed to move forward at this point with your projects Mercury is completing its shadow in the sign of Leo again, this is about your day-to-day your health if you had ideas about how you want to structure your life and your schedule you're now ready to move forward with them on August 17th Mars moves into Virgo where it will Transit through October 4th on August 21st, Venus moves into Virgo where it will Transit through September. 15th and on August 23rd the sun moves into Virgo where it will Transit through September 21st, all of these planets now coming into Virgo bring the personal planets into your opposite sign. This has to do with kind of Readiness I think for relationship in a slightly different way. So I was mentioning a moment ago a kind of your sense of The social and like the social whole and as Mars Venus and the sun all make their ingresses into your opposite sign you may actually have quite a lot of opportunities to practice communicating connecting interacting with people in different ways Virgo as your opposite sign represents the other this in some ways is any other and specifically this is your important relationships and committed Partnerships as the personal planets start to fill up this space. In your chart. I think you have greater Clarity around how you relate with others and how those relationships impact your day-to-day your health your sense of social participation are these relationships that are up to date with what you want now are they relationships that have some kind of conflict that need to be addressed? This will be a month that will start to bring them up the kind of later part last couple days of Leo season and then definitely Virgo season with Mars in Virgo and Venus in Virgo. We have a little bit of a caution here around criticism and Hyper focus on the details. And so especially for those of you who are dealing with important people your partner's your spouse's your business partners and important friends as well as again, just people in general check your judgment. I just want to say that just check your judgment. That goes for your projections on what other people are thinking about you. So if you're in a place where you're going on my God, they're judging me there judging me there judging me check that judgment. And if you're judging them check that judgment Virgo can be a very judgmental sign and these planets coming in give a lot of emphasis to micromanaging of the details and you might be picking up on all kinds of things about other people and you might also be picking up on all kinds of things about yourself. So soften the edges a little bit if they feel edgy. All right, that's what I have for you for now. I wish you all the best in Leo season. Bye for now.
