Leo demands to be center stage this week and deservedly so. The Sun always loves to roll into its home sign and life looks a little brighter for Leos everywhere. Fire and air signs dominate the sky now and that means lots of hot air and ebullience!
Retrograde Mercury in Leo truly steals the show though with a sextile to talkative Jupiter in Gemini and then a trine to wild and crazy Uranus in Aries. Everyone is going to have an opinion and be very happy to share those . . . at length. Thankfully it will be easier to see the funny side of things and a little laughter is a welcome change from the angst and intensity we have been enduring. There may be a few moments late in the week when Mercury is inconjunct Pluto in Capricorn that people speak out of turn but that won’t last too long.
Tuesday is probably the day to be aware of the temptation to exaggerate in order to make your point due to Jupiter in Gemini square Chiron in Pisces and the Leo Sun inconjunct Neptune in Pisces. Mercury in Leo tends towards dramatic delivery and it is inconjunct Neptune also. Keep it real!
If you earth sign folk are wondering about the lack of common sense on display these days it might be due to the fact Pluto in Capricorn is the only planet in earth signs. This week even the Moon doesn’t make a stop in the earth signs . . . just Libra, Scorpio and high flying Sagittarius. If you lack earth in your chart as I do, then best take steps to remind yourself to keep your feet somewhere close to earth!
A word of caution to those in authority as represented by Pluto in Cappy . . . listen closely with an open mind to those with complaints because heavy handed, controlling behaviors will be met with outright rebellion now. Saturn, Capricorn’s ruler, is currently in fair minded Libra and highly recommends investigating all sides of an issue before making any moves. Uranus in Aries is still out there fomenting revolution and now has both the Sun and Mercury in Leo on its side.
This weekend is made for partying with the Sun conjunct Mercury in flamboyant Leo and the Moon in outgoing, fun-loving Sagittarius. Celebrate life in whatever manner you enjoy the most and set aside your problems for awhile. We can all use some rest and relaxation.
Rather than getting all fired up about yet another idiot telling you how to live your life, Aries, a better idea might be to take time to go out and have fun. Be polite and respectful when you ask for some time off though.
For the next month, Taurus, your home and family will take precedence and rightly so. You usually enjoy entertaining in your home and do an excellent job of it. Keep an eye on your budget at this time to prevent spending more than is wise.
Baring the occasional verbal fumble due to your ruling planet, Mercury, moving in reverse, Gemini, you are full of grand schemes and big ideas now. As long as you exercise some restraint and avoid over-dramatization you can really wow your audience! Go for it!
Are you happy to move out of the spotlight, Cancer, and leave it to someone else? I wouldn’t be surprised to hear you are . . . the past month has been rough for you. Now you can focus on improving your cash flow.
Step right up folks and watch the grand show! Leo, you are ready and willing to jump into the limelight and roar. Smile brightly and shine your light on all around you. Plan something special for the coming weekend because it’s a great time for you to entertain!
You are another, Virgo, who will happily retreat to the background for the time being. One thing you do need to do is take extra care in how you express yourself when dealing with those in authority. Make sure your message is accurate and to the point.
In general this next month is a time of hanging out with your peers, Libra. You still need to take care when dealing with your family and your partner. Their issues can trip you up when you least expect it and always being the one in the middle gets old.
No question this is an excellent time to focus on your next career move, Scorpio. You might need extra patience when answering the same questions over and over though. Resist the urge to verbally dissect the person asking them . . .
The urge to hit the road for faraway places could strike you hard now, Sagittarius, and whether or not you can indulge that urge depends on your cash flow situation. You may want to settle for something less exotic instead. Enjoy the weekend!
Even though there is still an undercurrent of stress running through your life, Capricorn, the worst is behind you for the moment. Now you can put some thought into your investments and other joint finances. Be mindful about not coming across as controlling though.
It’s all about what your significant other now, Aquarius! If you’re single and looking, this is a great time to check out who’s available and chat them up. Lavishing attention on your sweetheart will be very rewarding! Head out for some fun on the weekend.
Have you been neglecting your health lately and overindulging yourself occasionally, Pisces? If so, now is a good time to get back into healthier habits and reestablish good daily routines. You may be tempted to fall off the wagon this weekend . . .
