“This is seriously the best reading I have ever received in my life. I have had previous astrology readings and nothing compares to the guidance, inspiration, and validation I received from Michael today. I am totally mind blown with the accuracy of the information I received. This is not your typical astrology reading. I only wish I had booked a reading sooner. Thank you so much, Michael!! You are so good at what you do.” ~ Neena
Tip of the Week:
While the shift from August to September does not officially determine the end of summer, which is Autumn Equinox some 3 weeks from now, many people casually interpret this time to be the beginning of the fall season.

Saturn Retrograde re-entering Pisces on September 1, Mercury entering Virgo, (the sign it rules) on September 2, and Uranus turning Retrograde on September 5/6 are some of the main highlights for this transition period.

Saturn’s re-entry into Pisces indicates its final period of disintegration that began in early March 2023. Saturn will only re-enter Aries again in mid-February 2025, so for the next 5.5 months, we can expect successive waves of more disintegration of realities that were perceived as ‘norms’ and of companies and institutions that have been prominent in our times.

Since Saturn will retreat back to 25 Pisces 09 by late November, if you have planets or angles at this degree or higher, in any sign, but especially Pisces, Gemini, Virgo and Sagittarius, you can expect to experience the weight of Saturn to push you to let go and move on.

Have a great week!

Horoscope for the Week:
Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)

Although ‘get her done’ Virgo time has begun, you are still in the mood to have fun. A clash of desires could be the result. You can find ways to play while you work to enjoy the sweet spot. Impulsiveness getting in the way of the focus to follow through is another challenge, but you can overcome it too, even if it requires overtime.

Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21)

Whistling while you work on projects close to home is keeping you busy. You want to beautify more than just clean and repair, but they are all connected. Ideally, you are focused on matters that have been waiting for their turn for quite a while, as opposed to new endeavors. This is so because the new ones, at the expense of the old, could prove… expensive.

Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)

Happy to hover close to home, you still want to get things done. It’s not all about work, however, and the greater inspiration will come from exercising your creative prowess. Meanwhile, a rebellious impulse to break through stale patterns is strongly indicated. So, explore your options and try new approaches empowered by a pioneering spirit.

Cancer (Jun 21 – Jul 22)

A busy cycle requiring you to attend to a variety of fronts and perhaps to multitask too, continues. Positively, you are able to exercise your skills and talents and reveal your resourcefulness. As long as you are able to participate with creative licence, things should flow smoothly. The challenge includes taking a diplomatic approach to get your way.

Leo (Jul 22 – Aug 23)

Practical considerations continue to guide your focus. Yet, these also require a creative focus. It could amount to the discernment process of where and how to best invest or at least improve your financial flow. Fortunately, your energy levels should be running strong, supporting you to be more assertive than you might be usually.

Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Although last week’s New Moon was in your sign, you may still be feeling a little dreamy, lost or confused regarding your focus going forward. Outlining practical plans will help. The fog will dissipate by mid-week and even prove sharper than usual. So, do what you can to prepare and be patient with your progress in the shorter term.

Libra (Sep 22 – Oct 22)

A period of retreat and reflection is pulling you inward. For now, the focus on friends and who you love and perhaps why is a source of excitement. Yet, the desire to retreat will increase steadily and could afford the perfect opportunity to dive into a good book or attend to creative hobbies and interests, or to meditate or simply rest your mind.

Scorpio (Oct 22 – Nov 21)

Identifying with your sense of individuality continues. It extends to your public life and career as well. To advance your position, new tools might be required. Your focus will become increasingly strategic, but you might be confronted by inner obstacles from your own mind, like lack of clarity and uncertainty, so breaking free of these is where effort is required.

Sagittarius (Nov 21 – Dec 21)

Taking new leads and strides guided by practical and realistic considerations is a central theme currently. Accessing inspired visions of creative possibility is featured. A rebellious attitude is also indicated, but could be harnessed as a resolve to succeed. Receptivity to the encouragement, guidance and moral support from significant others will help.

Capricorn (Dec 21 – Jan 19)

The present moment is always a good time to cultivate an inspired, yet realistic vision of purpose. Just as the meaning of life is to live meaningfully, a sense of purpose is achieved by choosing to be, and live on purpose. In the highest sense, this includes relevant contributions and transcends setting and achieving personal goals.

Aquarius (Jan 19 – Feb 19)

A deeper dive into matters, especially those involving significant others in your life, is an important theme currently. It includes some measure of creative collaboration. Positively, it will contribute to deepened intimacy in a whole, deeper and wider sense. Play with ideas, concepts and strategies before committing to any specific one is a good idea for now.

Pisces (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Your creative, critical faculties are on the burner and will come to a full boil soon. Beyond ideas and possibilities, the deeper consideration includes the time and effort required to follow through with and fulfill your objectives. You have entered a foundation-building phase, oriented to new approaches and strategies, so be patient yet deliberate.

Tip of the Week:
The first of two consecutive New Moons in Virgo occurs today, or August 22/23, the date depending on your time zone. Of initial significance is the fact that both lunation cycles(New Moons) will occur at the critical (Anaretic) degrees of 0 and 29 of Virgo. Since there are 30 degrees in a sign and since there are 29.5 days from one New Moon to the next, this event is not entirely rare. Yet, it is still significant enough and worthy of mention and attention. The basic fact is that both lunations are anchored in Virgo, the sign of analysis and critical thinking.

Since Mercury rules Virgo, it will play a special role.

For this first lunation cycle, Mercury is in Leo. While Mercury is often challenged in Leo, it is well-aspected, supporting original thoughts and breakthroughs in perception of what is deemed ‘reality’. Generally, as a whole, the New Moon chart reveals an edgy, rebellious, or revolutionary tone and can also be deemed to be both deep, dynamic and mysterious and factual, skeptical and sobering all at the same time!

As is always true of the New Moon, where it lands in your own Birth Chart, or even the ‘solar chart’ used for Horoscopes, is the first consideration regarding its destined influence, and will be a central focus for this week’s Horoscopes.

Have a great week!

Horoscope for the Week:
Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)

Fresh waves of creative thoughts and ideas inspired by and the source of critical analysis, is a central theme inspired by this New Moon. Positively, your confidence levels will be running high. However, some of your perspectives may seem radical and edgy or too lofty for realistic expression and integration. Still, enjoy the stretch of possibility thinking.

Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21)

The creative potential for this lunation cycle is strong. Yet, it remains that to harness it for its full potential, awareness and intention is the key. You might have to make extra efforts to break free from the comfort zone of your habitual perspectives. The other challenge is to know what you truly need and not simply want, and then to zero-in.

Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)

Changes close to home, probably in the way of improvements, are likely associated with this New Moon. Interactions with family and perhaps neighbors is part of the plot, as are financial interests and investments, and possibly concerns. Whatever happens, focus to reach cooperative win/win solutions, supported by emotional intelligence.

Cancer (Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Get ready for a busy cycle requiring a clear and strong focus on your priorities going forward. Change is in the air and can be as simple as clearing the clutter. However, the reach could go deeper as with renovations and the time, energy and investments they require. Do your research to get the best quality for the best price.

Leo (Jul 22 – Aug 23)

A careful consideration of your financial picture is likely during this cycle. Investments are featured, and they could be especially directed to your business, but perhaps also to your health and that of your lifestyle in general. Drawing upon hidden reserves of faith and trust in the flow might be required. Fortunately, your energy levels should be running higher than usual.

Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

This New Moon in your sign will activate a pioneering spirit and an ambitious determination. You will take an assertive approach to increase your outreach to get more attention and expand your influence and popularity. However, you may have to concentrate to both narrow your focus and clear the cobwebs from your mind which have possibly accumulated.

Libra (Sep 22 – Oct 22)

This powerful, double lunation cycle marks a time to step back from social activities and get busier with matters behind the scenes. Doing so could prove challenging, however, as others yearn for your attention and engagement, perhaps especially in your career, but socially as well. Positively, Mars in your sign is supporting an assertive resolve.

Scorpio (Oct 22 – Nov 21)

Your sights are set on the future, and you are in the mood to outline a creative strategy. You are ready for change but could feel conflicted regarding which is the lesser price, leaving things as they are or taking a leap of faith. The latter probably holds greater appeal, but to garner the courage required, some inner work is probably required.

Sagittarius (Nov 21 – Dec 21)

Virgo has a strong influence on your career and social status in general and this important area of your life will get activated over the next couple of months! Returns for past efforts meanwhile, are rolling in, but the results could be mixed. Mercury in Leo currently will support you to nurture a creative vision, but you are wise to keep your focus practical and realistic.

Capricorn (Dec 21 – Jan 19)

Earthy Virgo is in your element, so this couplet of New Moons could go your way. Venus and Jupiter are beckoning you to expand your horizons with confidence. Mars is urging you to just do it. Yet, Mercury in Leo currently however, may require that you approach things cautiously and based on having done your research to decipher your best approach.

Aquarius (Jan 19 – Feb 19)

Virgo combined with your sign equates to engineering. So, stretching the word to meet your current life situation, how might you engineer needed and desired solutions? The key is to outline a plan and then refine it to be more detailed, guided by creative, critical thinking. Cooperative efforts producing synergy will likely work better than going it alone.

Pisces (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Your ambitions are on a steady rise. Cooperation is an important keyword now and this theme trend will continue well into October anyway and will even increase yet. First, determine how you can do things better, making improvements and refinements as necessary. Your creative energies should be running strong, so tap into them with confidence.

Tip of the Week:
After a longer than usual Mercury Retrograde (Rx) cycle (which turned direct August 11), summer resumes its course.

Technically, there remain 5 weeks before the Autumn Equinox. Yet, there will be another New Moon on August 22/23 at fresh, raw, critical 0 Virgo 23, and then summer’s last Full Moon, (a Lunar Eclipse no less), at 15 Pisces 23 on September 7.

The tabloids will be exclaiming it to be a ‘Blood Moon’, others will chime in that it is ‘the’ Corn Moon’, credulously emphasizing one indigenous culture, often the Algonquin, at the expense of many others, standardizing and reducing its fuller, cultural spectrum of meanings. Vedic Astrologers will assert that it is in Aquarius, adding to the confusion and division, dismissive of the time factor that is the anchor of the true Zodiac associated with calendars and clocks which preceded the illustrious measure of rising stars and constellations projected, having falsely attained the mythical status of objective fact. This is true of many so-called truths upheld by popular culture and common assumptions.

To learn more about the Moon and its indelible influence in your daily life (much more than you might realize!), I will soon be offering my readers the opportunity to join my Moon Cycle Club. More details are coming soon, and send me an email early if you want to be on the list to learn more directly.

Horoscope for the Week:
Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)

With your confidence levels running strong and supported by a playful, sporting mood, you may find yourself pushing through prior blocks to advance your position somehow. The main issue is that you could overdo it, pushing too hard. Achieving grace and equanimity is ever the ideal to cultivate genuine strength of character. Patience with the process is the key.

Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21)

Some cycle requires more effort than others, like this one perhaps. Responsibilities close to home and family abound and require you to cover a lot of bases. Flowing with the mood includes the lube of gratitude to replace the hidden saboteurs called entitlement, expectation and assumption. How can you get close and personal without taking things personally?

Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)

Running on the high octane of life’s many little inspirations, your creative fires have been stoked. If this is not the case, you could be looking too closely and taking yourself and life too seriously. The time is right to invest into your health, as well, which is a four-cornered theme including physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. Awareness is the first key.

Cancer (Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Getting to the bottom of things somehow should be keeping you busy, and this trend will continue. Positively, you are in a creative and proactive mood and feel confident to forge ahead. A sense of confidence to tackle bigger projects is supporting your cause as well, and will hit its stride by month’s end. Some measure of creative licence is important to keep you motivated.

Leo (Jul 22 – Aug 23)

Sun and mercury in your sign are supporting ambitions to share your bigger thoughts on things. Some caution to not disturb any hornet’s nest is advised, however. With your energy levels running strong, you could feel a bit punchy and rebellious. Use this power to break through inner our outer resistance, yet be empathetic regarding other’s feelings.

Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You have likely been happy to play low over the past few weeks. You could have been creatively productive but have and continue to deal with challenges seeing things as clearly as you would like, especially due to Mercury Rx. This fog will begin to dissipate this week and your focus will get progressively sharper especially in September.

Libra (Sep 22 – Oct 22)

Making friends with the future implies your attitude and sense of adventure and determination. While confident on one hand, you probably sense that you need to do the work required, and this could include obtaining new tools and skills. Doing your homework to prepare is probably wise, and includes both inner work to clear doubts, and some background studies.

Scorpio (Oct 22 – Nov 21)

Taking a creative lead in your public and professional life has felt right for some weeks now. However, Mercury Rx has likely been causing you to feel hesitant and to be patient. Meanwhile, a rebellious impulse is also brewing, and you could feel conflicted. The key to slaying these doubt demons includes increasing your scope of vision.

Sagittarius (Nov 21 – Dec 21)

As though you have climbed to heights above the clouds, you are seeing things more clearly. This clarity is also inspiring a sense of adventure, if not literally perhaps by way of new projects and other creative initiatives. At worst, you feel overwhelmed by both your to-do list and the scope of possibilities. Reducing the amount or spectrum of areas of focus will help

Capricorn (Dec 21 – Jan 19)

Clearing the old to make way for the new is featured in this current cycle. Diving in to determine your deeper feelings about things, and to determine more practically what needs to be done, and the cost, is part of the plot. Sharing the decision-making is likely and you are probably willing to learn where necessary and are open to skilled help too.

Aquarius (Jan 19 – Feb 19)

Opening your mind to obtain new knowledge and information for the sake of more harmony and fulfillment on relationship fronts continues to guide your focus. Giving more to situations and taking risks to try new approaches will provide a guiding light. Your energy levels are probably running higher as well, inspiring a sense of adventure.

Pisces (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Attending to your health has required extra effort of late. Your energy levels have probably been up and down over the past several weeks, in part due to the need to concentrate your focus on specific goals. The shift now is to aim for a refreshed sense of balance. Redirecting some of your energy to creative interests that inspire you will increase your confidence.

“The other big news includes the end of the extra long Mercury Retrograde cycle on August 11. On August 12, Venus and Jupiter will form their annual conjunction, which is ever an auspicious aspect, yet this one is extra special since Jupiter is in Cancer which is an extra favourable sign placement for the gas giant.” ~ Michael O’Connor
Tip of the Week:
The Moon waxes to Full at 17 Aquarius 00 during the early hours of August 9. So, it will appear to be Full on both Friday, August 8th, Saturday the 9th, and will even linger as such on Sunday, but the visible waning decrease in size will be visible to critical observers, with the Moon by then in the early degrees of Pisces.

At its peak, this lunation will briefly amplify Uranus in Gemini, which has begun its 7+ year cycle in the sign of communications, perceptions and interpretations. In the bigger background, this transit synchronizes with AI becoming not simply a new norm the world over, but a force of powerful changes.

In turn, it will be strengthened with both Saturn and Neptune in Aries, and Pluto in Aquarius, all of which symbolize new, significant developing themes and processes.

Have a great week!

Horoscope for the Week:
Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)

The lingering influence of Leo remains strong, supporting a playful and creative, if dramatic mood. The synchronistic reflection of outer circumstances likely reveals this mix of highs and lows. Positively, your confidence levels are running high, yet this is also the very reason why keeping your ego in check is extra important. Aim to acknowledge everyone’s unique perspectives.

Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21)

Connecting with your inner source of inspiration probably includes celebrating the significant others in your life. This includes not only their very existence, but their unique gifts and talents, and includes yours as well. Sharing quality time likely feels extra important, but is also what is keeping you extra busy and everyone is hoping that you can take a positive lead at every turn.

Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)

The sparks of creative ignition have been illuminating your mind like sparklers lit for a special occasion. Your emotional tanks all at full is a feature of this overall theme. With a series of peaks occurring over the course of this week, there are good indications that you will be able to ride this cycle out on a high note. Just allow for brief time-outs, like power naps.

Cancer (Jun 21 – Jul 22)

An expansive and expressive mood continues to get attention. Upon reflection, a complex mix of emotions should be quite evident. At best, your ability to concentrate has been strong. At worst, your position has been fixed and unyielding. Meanwhile, investigations into making key investments has been a prevailing theme and will continue for a couple of weeks yet.

Leo (Jul 22 – Aug 23)

Sun and Mercury in your sign have been activating a strong and creative impulse. Attending to projects close to home and perhaps behind the scenes has been an important focus. Even though you are probably pushing the limits, there are indications that your energy levels are running high. Directing your focus to making improvements will produce enduring inspirations.

Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

A need to dig in deep and get your hands dirty could prove more literal than figurative. Although fresh starts on social fronts could be throwing you a few curveballs, due to what might be described as foreign energies, you are determined to push through to get things done that feature practical and realistic accomplishments.

Libra (Sep 22 – Oct 22)

Over the past several weeks, circumstances have likely directed your focus to more deliberately plan for the future. You could still be in the dreaming phase, but it is about to shift as Mercury turns direct again and builds momentum over the coming weeks. While you probably have reason to feel confident, you may be feeling some pressure to be decisive as well.

Scorpio (Oct 22 – Nov 21)

Leo tends to be a complementary power sign for you, and the feeling is often mutual. This may be because yours are the two most passionate signs of the Zodiac. With Mercury Retrograde, however, you may have been dealing with some anxiety and stress associated with your place in the world and the confidence to blaze a new trail.

Sagittarius (Nov 21 – Dec 21)

Everyone has been dealing with Mercury Retrograde one way or another. While for you it has been your creative, visionary sign, Leo, it tends to manifest as a sense of feeling a little lost. If so, you will see more clearly again soon as it turns direct and builds momentum starting next week. Other factors indicate a rebellious push forward. Make it work for you.

Capricorn (Dec 21 – Jan 19)

Leo time may tend to be a deeper and more complex cycle for you compared to others. If so, it has likely been exacerbated by Mercury Retrograde. Positively, it has supported a deeper dive of some kind, perhaps into investigations regarding investments, or perhaps even shadow work to illuminate and dissolve doubt demons. In any case, the end is near, for this theme focus.

Aquarius (Jan 19 – Feb 19)

Maintaining your poise and composure amidst complex outer circumstances has been a recent challenge. Hopefully, you have been able to do so. The next challenge is to redirect the focus of your energies to the generation of creative ideas that can be implemented for their practical value. With a Grand Trine in air signs, tune in to be supported to rise above what is not your business.

Pisces (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Leo time is ideal for making needed improvements and refinements wherever and however doing so makes sense. You are among the few who has likely fared better with this Mercury Retrograde supporting you to cast both a creative and critical eye where it is needed. Now, Mars in Libra can be harnessed to support your ambition and Venus/Jupiter to boost your confidence levels.

“We each can make measurable and meaningful differences in terms of how we might choose to co-create our life in conscious, harmonious alignment with our destiny.” ~Michael O’Connor
Tip of the Week:
​​

The Sun entered Leo on July 22, just as it ever does at this time each year to begin its transit through the sign it rules.

The ‘Signs’ in Astrology refer to the time period and their associated themes based on nature’s cycles. (The 12 corresponding Zodiacal Constellations are a projection of this cycle, not the other way around, as is commonly assumed.)

The Leo cycle began on a complex note featuring the late waning Moon in Cancer, and Mercury Retrograde, also in Leo, dampening the overall tone somewhat.

Now, under the light of the waxing Moon (which was New in Leo on July 24), Mars entering Libra on August 6 is noteworthy, as it can prove somewhat challenging.

Mercury formed the second of three conjunctions with the Sun (for this round of its tri-annual retrograde cycle) on July 31. This influence could swing either way to inflate egos or to offer a rare opportunity to actually break free of its grip and even experience a noticeable breakthrough within oneself or on relationship fronts.

Weekly Horoscope:

​

​Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)

You are likely able to tune in to the uplifting summertime spirit of Leo. Mars still in Virgo, however, may be synchronizing with the reality of balancing work with play. Some measure of inner work could go a long way now. While it could in fact backfire, if your ego overtakes you, this positively includes increasing your ability to be more objective about what you want and need.

​

Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21)

A busy time continues, yet you are determined to spend as much quality time with family as you can. Of course, family dynamics can prove complex as all social masks tend to be piled in the family virtual mask basket. So, circumstances could challenge you to make extra efforts to keep things positively rolling along and happy. A playful spirit will go a long way.

​

Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)

Your creative juices are likely flowing strongly now, and perhaps other ones as well. In some regards, you are determined to get to the bottom of things and to push for resolution of some kind, or perhaps for a breakthrough. As ever, exercising a spirit of creative thinking, considering new angles of approach to break free of old patterns, is a timeless key to liberation.

​

Cancer (Jun 21 – Jul 22)

The Venus/Jupiter combined influence that is steadily rising for the next 10+ days should prove quite rewarding. Admittedly, you could also feel a bit moodier than usual. Yet, your confidence levels to explore new territory should already be evident and are accompanied by a growing desire to express yourself, your feelings, and appreciation of beauty.

​

Leo (Jul 22 – Aug 23)

A strong creative impulse continues to steadily rise. Inspired by deep feelings of love, you may also need to have access to your hidden reserves of faith and confidence to achieve your goals. Your willingness to make the extra efforts is indicated and includes your ability to get to the point more effectively and quickly. Speak your mind, but weigh your words before you speak them.

​

Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Happy to remain largely behind the scenes, but you still want to get a lot done or to experience progress and productivity at a high level. Your willingness to make the extra efforts required is indicated, yet your ability to think as clearly as you would like could feel like spotting blue skies on an overcast day. Focus on the bigger picture and long-term plans for best results.

​

Libra (Sep 22 – Oct 22)

Mercury retrograde is inviting you to dream big, even in technicolor, as the saying goes, but to also be aware of tendencies to slip into wishful thinking. This can also be described as assumption, over-idealism, or unrealistic perspectives in general. The key now is to balance your lofty dreams and ideals with awareness of the actual efforts and resources required.

​

Scorpio (Oct 22 – Nov 21)

As though you were standing on top of the world, your feelings are mixed. As with the high-reaching and perilous peak of a high mountain, the reality of the situation could be a blend of grit and glory, achievement and intimidation… Fortunately, the Venus/Jupiter alignment stands to prove extra auspicious for you in terms of presenting opportunities for fresh starts.

​

Sagittarius (Nov 21 – Dec 21)

Despite possible fog patches obscuring clarity, you do see the light at the end of this tunnel. Returns for past efforts could come with mixed emotions, perhaps bittersweet. A call home that was sounded about 6 months or so ago is part of the plot and has guided you to also explore new possibilities. Your will to do what it takes may be needed.

​

Capricorn (Dec 21 – Jan 19)

On one hand, you find yourself in a deep mood, while on the other hand, you have been experiencing your world expanding and presenting new opportunities. An ardent push to see things through, meanwhile, requires more research and investigation. Circumstances are pushing you to confront your fears, and you probably have your share.

​

Aquarius (Jan 19 – Feb 19)

A strong emphasis on relationship fronts finds you renegotiating. An attitude of surrender to break patterns and make changes to keep the peace is featured. Positively, doing so will lead to a whole new spectrum of creative thoughts, ideas, and projects. Fortunately, your ambitions are running strong anyway, so you feel determined to participate.

​

Pisces (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Making needed improvements is in the spotlight. Your powers of creative, critical thinking should be running extra strongly these days. You may not be ready to make firm decisions yet, but you will feel more confident to do so soon. Regarding your financial life, get clear on what you want to achieve in both the shorter and longer term, with clear timelines.

“I have been re-listening to the reading you did for me two months ago Michael …actually, I am living the words I hear you speak…so accurate was your reading …it made me laugh! I appreciate you and your gift… Thank you for being here now.” ~Gillian
Tip of the Week:
​​

‘Leo time’ began on July 22, and a couple of days later, the next lunar cycle, anchored with a New Moon in Leo, began. It did so with Mercury Retrograde also in Leo, which is generally regarded as a complex sign position.

​
Saturn and Neptune, closely aligned in Aries, are playing a leading role.

​
The key message is basically as follows: tune in to the times and cooperate with the flow of trends, because resistance is futile.

​
For example, the emergence of computers, the internet, AI, and robotics is not simply a conspiracy or conspiracy theory; it is the new reality, whether you or anyone likes it or not. It is all quite in keeping with the Aquarius Age that is moving strongly and quickly.

​
Venus in Gemini in this plot currently is inviting a willingness to be aware and to learn, even if doing so implies baby steps.

​
In its own way, Mercury Retrograde can be metaphorically illustrated as the arrow pulled back in the bow. Mercury turns direct on August 11, and when it does, the pace will accelerate.

​Have a great last week of July,​

Weekly Horoscope:

​

​Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)

Taking a creative lead is in the spotlight now, but it comes with a twist or two. Sometimes the way forward is clear, yet it may include casualties of some kind. As the saying goes, “you can’t please all the people, all the time”. So, we are left to do what we feel we must and trust that by taking authentic action, others will be pushed or inspired to do the same.

​

Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21)

The focus on home and family continues as a central theme. Circumstances are pushing you to exercise your creative, critical thinking faculties. Doing so might be facilitated by sharing your thoughts, plans, and challenges to invite input from others. You are probably busy on a variety of fronts, so bring every front to the fore and accept input.

​

Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)

Creative inspirations should be coming in fast now. These can manifest as increased social engagement. However, you may yearn to express yourself and not simply socialize and visit. At least take mental note about what you would like to do or, better yet, outline your visions and inspirations with the clear intention to act on them as soon as you are free and clear.

​

Cancer (Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Deciphering where to best invest your time, money, and energy in general is on your mind. It will require getting clear on what constitutes your values and priorities. As willing as you may be to take a few risks, it might prove wise to read the fine print or carefully consider the repercussions, due to the fact that curveball Mercury Retrograde is still pitching.

​

Leo (Jul 22 – Aug 23)

The recent New Moon in your sign should be activating your determination to take new, creative leads. The key is to focus on whatever questions you want answers for and trust that you will receive answers in the form of ideas, insights, and possibilities. Your willingness to work harder, if with a slower, steady pace, will prove successful.

​

Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Stepping back for a while will probably prove satisfying at this time. This does not mean you need to be or will be passive and unproductive. In fact, it might prove to be just the opposite. Thanks to Mars in your sign, you can harness it to maximize the outcome of your efforts. As usual, the key is to be clear about your objectives. Get clear and get it all done!

​

Libra (Sep 22 – Oct 22)

Learning to be your own best friend is extra important currently. This theme focus will last throughout this lunar cycle, which continues until late August. Doing so, however, could prove a bit more challenging than it might otherwise seem it should be. It will help to shift your perspective to keep a very open mind and not draw conclusions about people and situations.

​

Scorpio (Oct 22 – Nov 21)

Finding your way in the world has always required carving your niche somehow, and this theme is extra strong now. Among other things, get clear on what makes you special. This will often be closely associated with what you love, so start with what interests and even excites you. A golden key to success is to always do exactly what you feel like doing, as much and often as you can.

​

Sagittarius (Nov 21 – Dec 21)

As inspiring as this Leo New Moon influence stands to be for you, the contribution of Mercury Retrograde could be some measure of confusion or uncertainty. This is just a temporary influence, so simply slow down and don’t pressure yourself to produce big results. Rather, use the influence to think creatively and make plans to take more deliberate action in about a week or two.

​

Capricorn (Dec 21 – Jan 19)

Some dives are deeper than others, and this Leo New Moon is an invitation to do just that. Deep dives do often produce added pressure, yet that can also be understood to be extra empowering as well. The key to your success now is to focus your efforts on getting to the bottom of things wherever and however it makes sense. Be thorough and aim for completion with each task.

​

Aquarius (Jan 19 – Feb 19)

Leo time is an invitation to be more social somehow. At least focus on exploring people, places, ideas, and things that you have not experienced before. Get clear on what you truly want and avoid simply yielding to what others want for the sake of harmony, since it is likely to prove unfulfilling or even backfire altogether. Identify what you want to do and invite others to follow your lead.

​

Pisces (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

A focus on health is extra strong and important now. Beyond improving your diet or committing to an exercise routine, direct your focus to your lifestyle as a whole. One area of extra importance is creating more harmony and cooperating more on relationship fronts. Focus to be more empathetic and tune in to how you can contribute to others’ happiness, and you will benefit too.
