Dear friends,

Hey everyone, here’s August. The month of the Fixed Fire Sign of Leo Lion. Leo is a bold energy, confident, uplifting and loyal. And the time of Leo is also usually the bringer of the sunshine, not surprising as the ruler of Leo is, THE SUN.

We have some major planetary players remaining retrograde (reverse gear) for months to come, and these are, as follows. Lucky Jupiter ruler of Sagittarius, currently in Pisces. Teacher & Captain of Karma, Saturn ruler of Capricorn, currently in Aquarius. Psychic Enhancer & Illusion Creator, Neptune ruler of Pisces, travelling through Pisces. Deep dark Pluto, ruler of Scorpio, travelling through Capricorn. This is particularly important for the signs I’ve mentioned above, but also for all signs in general as the months ahead are times to avoid making life-changing decisions. Why? Because the big decisions you make during major retrogrades become pointless and/or, bear very little, or no fruit. And then, by the time the planets go forward, you’ll be forced to re-think your initial plans & decisions, possibly making it all a waste of time.

But life has to go on and ofcourse sometimes we’re forced to make important decisions that can’t wait. If so, take time, engage some forethought, maybe get the right guidance and then make up your mind.

We have a Leo New Moon on the 8th and an Aquarius Full Moon on the 22nd.
