🚨 The "Season of the Ex" Has Arrived!
Welcome to Leo Season! The Sun moved into the sign of the Lion this past Saturday evening, Pacific Time.
Like all the signs, Leo represents hundreds of different archetypes that we'll experience throughout our lives. 🦁
But none is as important as the heart. Listening to the heart, following the heart's direction and creating from the heart are a few ways this dynamic energy wishes to express itself.
That's why Leo also represents our physical heart and heart health. You can expect that heart ailments may be the body's way of turning your attention back to the muscle that keeps us loving and creating, as well as living! 💜
No doubt I grabbed your attention with my sassy subject line! Yes, Venus is also now officially retrograde as of Saturday night — in the sign of Leo.
While I maybe lured you in with a promise for ROMANCE — Venus and Leo's domains — it's important to remember that our first relationship is always with the SELF.
Therefore, while you are certainly likely to hear from an old lover or friend over these next five weeks (assuming you haven't already!), these interactions are helpful in so much as they direct you back to YOUR OWN personal values and self-worth (Venus)! 💎
The School of Relationship ain't NO JOKE.
That's why I teamed up with my friend Julie Mallarie to bring you the full scoop on what to expect now through September 3 while Venus is Rx. 💘

(Pressed for time? This one clocks in at just under 10 minutes.)
A lot of people tend to value romantic relationships as much, if not more, than cold hard cash.
(Let me just tell you — way more people ask me about love than they do financial matters!) 😍
But hey, guess what? Our relationships and our cash are often entertwined. In fact, the underlying dynamics of our financial situations are often reflected in our romantic relationships, too.
Read that again: Our relationship to money may be similar to our relationship with our lovers! 🤔
What I don't discuss in the short video above is how Venus Rx can really give your finances an overhaul.
You're bound to be dealing with money matters now, and they aren't likely to be of the happy variety. 😱
Whether you've got an unexpected bill from the IRS, lost part of your income, or your student debt repayments are restarting (all true stories I've heard in the past week) ...
Let's just say that Venus is providing the opportunity to determine: What is of greatest value?
Here's some money inquiries for you:
💰 Can you see any ways in which your money problems are reflective of your self-worth?
💰 Are you using your resources (time, money, energy) in alignment with your values?
💰 Do you complain about money? How often? What beliefs and stories do you hear in how you talk about or feel about money?
Now's an excellent time to reflect on the intersection between MONEY and relationship.

THE ASTROLOGICAL FORECAST
Now through Friday, we've got three planets in Leo: The Sun, Mercury and Venus. It's an excellent time for communicating and demonstrating your creativity with passion, playfulness, romance and/or generosity. ♌
Leo energy is all about COURAGE. Speak from your heart now — you'll be well received.
On Thursday, we've got a few noteworthy aspects in the sky.
📞 Ring! Ring! Messenger Mercury meets Venus in Leo and makes a lovely aspect over to the Destiny Point — which just moved into Aries, the sign of taking action.
If you haven't heard from someone from the past yet, today's likely the day it'll happen — or maybe you'll find the courage to make the call yourself.
Regardless of how it plays out, expect an omen or message today. 🍓
At the same time, Mercury and Venus are making a tense aspect over to the sensitive Moon, so don't hold your breath that any communications will be exactly as you expect.
But since the Moon is making a nice aspect over to Pluto, it will be an opportunity for empowerment and self-reflection. 🦋
‼ Also on Thursday, Pluto moves from the super powerful 29° degree to 28° Capricorn.
Although I can't make any promises, I do hope (ardently) that some of the intensity and pressure that's been working us to the extreme will start to wane. Let's see how it goes. 🤞
🌕 On Tuesday, August 1, we have a FULL MOON in air sign, Aquarius, at 11.31am PT, emphasizing friendships and putting your passion projects to the service of others.
Plus, there's good news!
Have you been feeling exhausted or stalled out on a project? Maybe you haven't known what action to take or generally feel stymied?
Over the weekend and coming into Tuesday under the Full Moon, expansive Jupiter makes a harmonious aspect over to energetic Mars. You may find some of our energy replenished so that you feel inclined to take action or otherwise exert your will. 💪
💭 Mercury is opposed to gloomy Saturn right now, however, so it's a good time to examine your mindset. Is it causing any issues around your vitality?
As I told a client today: The mind will exhaust you in its attempts to solve problems only the body and the heart know how to answer.
If you're lost in the mind, then hit the gym, go for a walk or bust out your journal and complete an inquiry I've posed in this email.
