As a summer-loving sign, Leo inspires us to truly live life to the fullest. And while Leo season is normally a very social time, with Venus in retrograde motion in the same sign, we might be seeking more solo time to explore how our desires are changing.

With the communication planet, Mercury, in its strongest position in the sky, the next few weeks are ideal to invest our energy in any projects that require fixing, precision, and organization.
