Mars Enters Gemini
Today, Mars, (the planet of action, energy, passion, and anger) moves into Gemini. This is a very interesting aspect as we jump from having Mars in an earth sign (Taurus) to and air sign (Gemini).
Gemini (being an air sign) rules the mental plane making our minds more active than they have been throughout Pisces season with all the watery emotions clouding our judgment. We have struggled to maintain clarity and had lost our ability to focus on the details.
Gemini also rules information, how we take it in from the world, process and make sense of it, and then communicate and express ourselves outwardly. Gemini is the sign of the zodiac that rules the hands and because of this, we have a lot of energy urging us to DO something with our hands to keep our mind distracted. Mars in Gemini could totally be represented by the saying "Idle hands are the devil's workshop."
Mars is bringing a fire energy to Gemini's air, meaning we have to monitor how much we are fanning that flame. Our minds are going to be all over the place as they come back online. We will be distracted and jumping all over the place. Gemini loves to multi-task, keeping their mental plane active and engaged at all times.
The same goes for this planetary aspect, but there are a few cautions that come with this placement.
First, the fire energy of Mars is impulsive. It would rather act now and think later. If we act on these impulses, you can best bet you will find yourself in some situations you'd rather not be in, that will require some effort to get out of.
Second, Mars also brings a lot of passion to the table which Gemini can totally work with. There is a high level of productivity that can get accomplished during these times. Do be cautioned though, it is better to multi-task among 3 projects than it is to multi-task among 10 projects. There is a caution here that we do not spread ourselves too thin as we won't really end up accomplishing much.
Third, Mars is also very aggressive. It can cause frustration in a second, and throw a full blown tantrum the next. Because Gemini rules communication and expression, we must be mindful about how we are speaking to others, as we could come off as blunt, rude, and mean. If the energy of Mars can make our tongues sharp, we have the ability to hurt people with our words which will cause drama that doesn't need to be caused. This is a great energy to be bold enough to speak our truth, but just be cautious about how that truth is being delivered.
Be mindful that this energy needs to be exerted through physical movement and exercise. If we do not exert this energy in a healthy way, it will continue to boil within us causing physical symptoms such as anxiety, high blood pressure, and headaches, that we'd rather not deal with. Being this high strung will cause us to lash out at the first opportunity to do so.
It is best to work WITH these energies instead of against them. So make sure you are doing some sort of physical activity to alleviate the fire energy building within, be mindful of how you are speaking to others, and keep your mind busy and engaged at all times.
As with all things in life, there are pros and cons, and advantages and disadvantages. This aspect is no different. Mars is a power house of an energy to work with, and Gemini is a brilliant energy that will help us connect the dots of logic, as long as we do not act upon our first impulses.

May 1, 2020
The Schumann resonance records the changes in the electromagnetic frequency the earth experiences. Although there are direct connections to the cosmic astrology, science has yet been able to scientifically provide an algorithm or equation to measure the energetic influence of cosmic events.
Since the global mediation on April 4, 2020 we have experienced some of the highest numbers ever recorded on the Schumann resonance scale.
Today May 1st, 2020, the Schumann resonance recorded an interesting pattern over the last 3 nights where we received large blasts of energy throughout the night. This can effect the physical symptoms we experience as our psychic or auric field is sensitive enough to feel these vibrations.
This isn’t a normal pattern that is captured. The short blasts of energy balls with following beams of direct frequency rays really makes you wonder about what our collective consciousness is being downloaded with.
The current astrology aspects are also very different and rare compared to past patterns as we are in a very interesting astrological time. Our mental planes are receiving huge amounts of information and there are sudden jolts and shifts in our perspectives and awareness.
Many of my clients along (with myself) have reported opposite sleep patterns, vivid dreams, increased head/sinus pressure, and sudden palpitations accompanying ringing in the ears.
These are also ascension symptoms that normally manifest under a fluctuation in the energy in the auric field. Of course, if there’s a medical concern please seek a medical professional. With a solid grounding practice, most ascension symptoms can be relieved and fully resolved.
Have you noticed any shift to your energy, or sleep situations over the past few nights?
The Full Moon In Libra
Today, we will be experiencing very intense energy as our Libra full moon has us focused on our relationships. Regardless of all of the other planetary activity at this time, the moon in Libra alone would have us reviewing our emotional comforts, our safety and security within our current relationships. Because this is taking place opposing the Sun in Aries, we are pressurized with an energy that has us balancing our energy, love, and attention among ourselves vs. others, me vs. we, and independence vs. partnership.
Aries and Libra are polar opposites and under this energetic influence, you can bet our hearts will be undergoing some important transformations as we give stock to our relationships, and we see whether we are giving too much of ourselves away.
This is a time of unity. Where we examine ourselves in regardless to how we share ourselves with others, and where we can oversee the divides we’ve created within our relationships and within ourselves preventing us from totally being at peace with our lives. Libra represents harmony and peace, showing us where balance needs to be restored.
Regardless of where you are currently at in the relationship spectrum, this Supermoon in Libra will have us all breaking our own hearts to see where we can turn our heartbreaks into a source of power.
Trust your intuition at this time to show you the roadmap to your healing. Whatever not-so-nice- thoughts or feelings come up for you over the next few days, be sure to ask the Universe to release you from the energy that is preventing you form obtaining a healthy balance in your relationships.
As always, if you require any assistance navigating these energies, please listen to your April Forecast, listen to the weekly Energy Forecast, and/or book a session online, and I'd be more than happy to help guide you through.

New Moon In Aries
Today, we have our very first New Moon of the new energetic and astrologic calendar, in Aries. With Aries season well under way, you may be feeling all over the place with your energy, drive, and attention.
Normally, Aries season is full force forward, but this year, because of us still being under Mercury’s retrograde shadow and Mercury still in Pisces, we've had the brakes put on our actions. Mars, (Aries ruling planet) is sandwiched in between Saturn & Pluto causing a lot of restrictions and destruction. We are still trying to adjust to the overwhelming thoughts and ideas in our mental plane, while our physical energy just isn't up to par.
Where is Aries ruling in your chart? Save $56 on the Intro To Astrology Course. Use EMPOWER2020 at the checkout.
The New Moon in Aries, will help us get our butts in gear. It is important for us to take some time under the New Moon energy to think of all of the new things we'd like to see happen in our lives over the course of the next 12 months. Because Aries is all about drive, passion, initiative, and new experiences, this New Moon should have you thinking about the new projects you'd like to start, new experiences you'd like to live, new habits you'd like to form, and new ways of creating passion and joy in your life.
Often times, as we build towards a New Moon, our energy takes a dive and we experience situations and emotions that aren't so pleasant. This happens so we can find the root of these issues and use them to create a roadmap of how to never experience them again.
For instance, Aries, because it is always fired up and ready to take action, also has quite the temper. Mars, the warrior planet, is always ready to engage. Many people can experience bouts of anger and aggression prior to a New Moon in Aries, showing you what isn't working in your life, and then showing you where to create new energy in your life to resolve the anger issues.
New Moon energy is more about setting an intention for change than actually implementing it, so stay inside yourself, think of all the changes you'd like to see happen in your life, and make a list of everything that pops into your head.

Welcome To Aries Season
The time has come where we enter into a brand new energetic and astrological calendar, as we head into Aries season, marking the Spring Equinox for the Northern hemisphere. We are regaining our balance as the days turn into equal hours of light and dark. The fire element of Aries, dries us off from the complete saturation of emotional and karmic waters we just came out of from Pisces season. As we towel off, we are already eager to embark on new endeavours.
Aries is the first sign of the zodiac and under this influence we are ready to hit the ground running as we supercharge an area of our life. Aries is the trailblazer, the one who wants to dive into whatever excites them, and has the tendency to act first and think later. They initiate new energy and new paths.
Similar to the first day of Spring, the world comes to life and sneaks out of their winter shadows with the Sun in Aries. Aries energy is fast, quick to react, impulsive, head strong, and anxious to get things done. There is an abundance of energy as we set off into the world to make leaps and bounds on our paths forward, eager to accomplish what we set out to do.
A certain level of caution comes with this Aries season as it is being shadowed by Mercury’s retrograde shadow period. This means that we are going to get off to a slow start in accomplishing what the Aries energy wants us to do. We have to still rely heavily on our intuition to guide us through this shadow period.
With the Aries energy quick to act, we really have to stop and listen to the inner guidance we are being given. We have to PAY ATTENTION, and because Aries energy isn't really one to do that, we need to be overly cautious that we aren't jumping into things without consulting our hearts and our heads.
In astrology, Aries represents the head, which is appropriate for the sign as they are very headstrong and push through the barriers of restriction in order to tackle their dreams. The Sun moving into Aries poses an interesting tension on us, as the Sun and Chiron (the wounded healer) will meet up with each other giving us an opportunity to set the tone for the next 12 month energy cycle and how it is we are going to heal. We are going to be moving out of ego (head) and learn to live life from a higher sense of knowing as we tap into our higher consciousness and newly developed mental plane.
It's important that we not return to old patterns and behaviours during this time as what we focus on in the first weeks of Aries season will last throughout the new energetic calendar. Those who have developed spiritually, will pass this test by standing strong in themselves, their truths, and their power to transcend their old selves to fully embrace the new.
Everything we've learned over the past year, will be put to the test in this new energy cycle. Aries season helps us to get things started and to take the first steps on building new elements in our lives.
As long as you are being mindful to consult your intuition before proceeding to act on the impulses and urges you want to take action on, you will no doubt set a solid foundation and be overly productive in bring things to life while the Aries energy infuses you with the power and strength to blaze ahead.
As always, if you require any assistance navigating these energies, please download your March Forecast or book a session online, and I'd be more than happy to help guide you through.

11:11 Activation Codes
Many of my clients have reached out over the last week to ask questions about seeing "the signs", the patterns, and numbers in particular. It seems many of you are noticing the number 11 more so now, than ever before.
In numerology, the number 11 carries with it, a divine energy of both connection and accelerated manifestation. Any time the number 11 crosses your path, it's said that you are in instant contact with the spirit realm, either being shown a validation from your guides or angels to the path you are on, or as a message that you're not alone.
I often advise my clients to pay close attention to their thoughts at the time of noticing the 11 sign, as it could be why you are receiving the message from the divine in that moment. They reach out to validate that your thoughts are on the right track, that you're on the right path, and to encourage you to move forward with your plans.
Many people look at the clock as it strikes 11:11 and this too is a great sign that you are being asked to receive messages from above. In numerology, each number carries a certain energy and message. The goal is to always add up the digits to get to a single number with 11 being the exception. For example, the number 14 would carry a 5 energy (1+4=5). The number 11 (or any multiple of this number - 22,33,44, etc.) would be considered a Master number, carrying messages and energy from the angel and spirit realm.
On November 11th, we are under an 11:11 activation being the 11th month, the 11th day. It offers us an intense healing energy that will help us prepare for the next decade. These are changing times, and since the veil between realms got its thinnest on October 31st, with an added layer of healing and transformational energy from mercury retrograding in scorpio, we are experiencing planetary and energetic shifts that have caused conflict for us from the inside out. These shifts are all in efforts to prepare us for the download that takes place under this 11:11 energy.
The 11:11 activation essentially opens up a gateway within the cosmos to allow strong rays of energy to permeate through the earth and each person on it, all in efforts of raising the global vibration and collective consciousness. Basically, we're being infused with love and light in hopes we will help revolutionize humanity. We’ve been doing a lot of healing, and this 11:11 gateway is exactly the infusion we need to integrate all we’ve discovered - not to mention the Full Moon in Taurus on the 12th, the day AFTER this potent infusion to help us anchor it all in!
The 11:11 gateway is an intense energy for manifesting, accelerating the process from planting the seed, to actually reaping the benefits from its growth. There is no better time to focus on what we desire than NOW!
Even more than that, 11:11 marks Remembrance day. And although we do use the energy to remember those that served before us, we are also remembering who it is that WE are and preparing ourselves to serve humanity as we raise the collective consciousness.
The divine 11 energy is about being connected to, and grateful for our ancestors in spirit, who now guide us on our path from the spirit realm. We can pay our respects and give thanks in more ways than just wearing poppies and giving a moment of silence - although these expressions are extremely important.
We can also give thanks by quieting our minds, connecting to our hearts, and focusing on all the energy and love on those who have passed over and who contributed to this world while they were here.
Realizing how far we (as a collective) have come, and how far we still have to go, will shift focus onto what needs to happen in the now, to make the years to come more in alignment with the love and light we hold in our hearts versus the hate and darkness we experience in our current world and reality.
Once we can focus on what the world needs as a whole, we can ask ourselves what we can do to do our part by being a small piece in a larger puzzle. With the intentions heavily set on raising the global vibration and frequency, you can take it one step further and focus on what changes you want (and need) in your own personal world and environment to raise your own energy and vibration. By upping our own personal energy levels, we radiate our energy out into the world, touching each person we meet and cross paths with, in our day.
Energy is infectious, and if we can all hold love and light in our focus as individuals, it will help our global collective goals and vision. All of this energy multiplies under the 11:11 gateway activation and together, we can manifest a better world, a higher consciousness, and a state of healing for the earth as we know it - by remembering the past and using it to create a better future.
So on 11:11 (especially AT 11:11) try your absolute best to hold a higher vibration. Take moments to send love and light out into the world, and honour each time you are sent an 11:11 message from the Divine. Pay attention, listen, and respond with light and love.

Why Manifesting Doesn't Work
I’m sure you’ve heard of manifesting. It’s where you are guided into a meditative state, where you create a detailed vision of what it is you want in life, and where you practice matching your vibration and frequency to your vision as if you’ve already been living what it is you are trying to manifest.
If you’re anything like me, you’ve probably read up on every article you can find on how to manifest your perfect partner, your soulmate, your twin flame, your perfect career, your dream house, and the kind of money you have only ever dreamed of. I have spent countless hours in a meditative state, holding a vision so detailed and clear that I could smell the smells of the environment. I could pick out the details of the decor on the walls. I could feel the items within my environment, and hear the sounds echoing in the background. I have repeated countless mantras throughout my day, speaking my vision into existence, only to feel like a failure. Nothing seemed to work. It made me feel like a “spiritual dummy”, a "spiritual failure”.
What was I doing wrong?
As it turns out, manifesting (although seemingly very easy) is literally a matter of the mind. I have followed many spiritual gurus in my journey and they all make it sound so easy.
“It’s all your mind!” they say. “If you are able to envision it, and think as if you’ve already received it, then it’s already yours.”
Great! But how long does this take?
I am a true believer the the power of the mind. I have overcome death itself, a physical healing recovery like no other. I have maintained staying positive with the challenges I face on a daily basis, so to say I’m of a weak mind would be a blatant lie.
After feeling disappointed in not being able to manifest the things I desired, after feeling so stupid about how “easy” this is suppose to be, and how “instantaneous” this process was suppose to yield results, I had to dig a bit deeper.
As it turns out, the reason why manifesting doesn’t work, is because of the disconnect in energy, frequency, and vibration. It’s not enough to hold a vision, or to say a mantra, or to think so positively as if you’ve already received what it is you’ve been asking for, if your vibration doesn’t match, it ain’t happening.
So how is someone who is suffering from great physical pain suppose to vibrate of a frequency of good health? How is someone who has been financially struggling their whole life suppose to know what it feels like to have enough money in the bank account to not tally up their grocery order before getting to the checkout? (You know, to avoid the embarrassment of not having enough money to pay for it?) How is someone who has only ever been in toxic and damaging romantic relationships suppose to manifest a happy, healthy, romantic partner if they don’t know what that kind of love feels like?
The short answer is… you can’t.
The emotional frequency is what activates a vision to actually manifest here in our physical realm. But if we have no reference of that kind of emotion, how are we ever going to get what it is we’ve been trying to manifest?
In the many years of my struggle, I have tried countless programs; guided mediations, visualizations, deep trance and meditative sessions, and still was unable to produce the kind of results I was looking for. Until I found NLP (neurolinguistic programming). It’s a fancy way of rewiring your brain to the frequency it needs to be at, in order to connect emotionally and energetically to your desired outcome.
What was missing from all of my previous methods was that emotional frequency to activate the vision. I stumbled upon a whole bunch of scientific studies and reports about how frequency and NLP can rewire your subconscious brain. Seeing as we live out our lives making decisions and acting out behaviours that are all seeded from the subconscious; and seeing as 95% of the subconscious programming we live off of is the foundation of what we absorb in the first 7 years of our lives, that doesn’t leave a good percentage of opportunity to rewrite our subconscious programming on our own.
Because I have struggled with money in the past (being physically disabled at 23 put a damper on my monetary success), I didn’t have the money to sign up or purchase these huge professional NLP programs. I finally came across a company, who not only had amazing audio files that you could feel were activating your energy body and vibration at the moment of listening, but they too understood that those who need these programs weren’t rich. Why would you need an NLP to gain financial stability and abundance if you already had money, right?!
So I skeptically tried the most affordable audio program and fell in love. Not only can you feel the sensations of the frequency vibrating through your body, but you can actually feel the results in a short time frame. I wasn’t expecting much. I am the biggest skeptic there is, for the most part. But i’m fascinated with neuroscience and with spirituality, so understanding how these audio files worked was super important to me.
No, I didn’t get rich over night. But, I did see an increase in my business the very next day.
After weeks of not booking any appointments (the one-on-one consultation business is feast or famine), I listened to the financial money booster audio and had 3 clients book an appointment the very next day. Of course I thought it was a coincidence (if you believe in coincidence), so I put out an intention that day before listening to the audio file. I made a little arrangement with the Universe and within my mind, that if this was legit, I would make $500 by the end of the week. I listened to the audio, and bam I booked appointments equalling $500 that week. I was thrilled.
At that point, I didn’t care how it happened, I was just happy that it did happen. So I decided to step up my game. I had been living with family members at the time (disability doesn’t give you much to live off of) and I REALLY wanted my independence back. So I set out to manifest my dream place. I held my vision, got specific on the details, and listened to the manifestation audio in the NLP program. Through some trials and tribulations (mostly having the patience), after about 3 weeks of holding the vision while listening to the audio files, I had the most perfect place literally drop into my inbox; perfect price, pet-friendly, location was a gem, and it was almost identical looking to the vision I had held for myself.
My jaw dropped. Holy shit… I think I cracked the code!
These audio files really do work! And since then, I have slowly added to my library of trusted NLP programs and use them daily. I believe in these programs SO MUCH that I have partnered with this company and would like to share a FREE audio NLP of your choosing. Honestly, it’s FREE!
If you have the money to purchase the programs specific to your current struggle, I would definitely recommend you do so, but if you are like I was, and couldn’t afford that kind of investment, sign up for your free download and be patient. This company is known for sending emails, encouraging you to purchase their products, but every now and then, if you’re patient enough, they will offer you another free downloadable file. It’s worth the email spam, I promise.
All I can say, is yes, manifesting doesn’t work unless you’re able to embody the vibration to activate your vision to come into reality. And yes, it’s damn near impossible to do that, if you have no emotional reference to pull from. But with a little bit of help from NLP programming, you will feel the shift inside of you, and you will start to see the things you’ve been trying to manifest actually happen.

Uranus Goes Retrograde
Today, completing the cosmic trifecta of events, is Uranus going retrograde in Taurus. Uranus first entered into Taurus back in May of 2018, starting the domino effect of having our foundations rattle into a pile of dust.
Uranus is the planet of sudden change, rebellion, and freedom, while Taurus is a fixed earth sign focused on being productive using the skills and talents to the best of their ability to create financial wealth and long-term security. Uranus in Taurus isn't the best blend of energies, but since its pairing we have seen the influence of their energy on a public platform, effecting our earth with climate control, and natural disasters, we've seen it creep into our banking structures, and in an increased value and worth in the female population.
Uranus going retrograde will be giving us a timeout to retrace our steps since May 2018, and take a good look at where we've increased our worth and value. Uranus will be in Taurus until April of 2026, and as an outer planet, its energy effects are low and slow. Because Uranus is all about let go of attachments, especially where physical and monetary matters are concerned, and Taurus being so stubborn not wanting to make even the slightest change, we really are going to struggle with the inner conflict of letting go of all that we are overly attached too. This may sound unpleasant, but its absolutely necessary.
Globally, we need new innovations to help save our mother earth, we need to breakthrough bringing the health and wellness of our planet back to the forefront of concern. Adopting new green energy concepts, promoting living off grid, and focusing on the diets we consume, promoting to live more off of the earth, will be just a few focuses of this energy. We may see a disruption to the financial market as new currencies such as crypto and bitcoin make more of a splash.
Individually, Uranus in Taurus will point out where we are fixated on certain things, too attached to items or ideas, and highlight where we are too stuck in our ways. This is all to help us detach from earthly things and create a more free flowing form of acceptance instead of being so highly dependable on creature comforts. Uranus going retrograde, will slow things down just a tad, so we can see what really needs our focus and attention moving forward.

Mercury Enters Leo
Today, the planet of communication, information, and expression, re-enters into the fiery, brave and bold sign of Leo. Most of us will barely remember Mercury entering Leo the first time around on June 26th, because so much has gone down since then, it literally seems like a life time ago.
But, only a month ago we actually got a taste of what Leo does to the way we express ourselves when we finally stood up and spoke up about our feelings. Mercury in Leo honours the heart-space, speaks one's truth, lives more authentically, sparks new creative and romantic passions, and has fun, acting playful and lively, with a child-like energy. Because Leo is the performer of the zodiac and tends to be a bit dramatic in taking over the spotlight, we will likely feel a strength to want to be heard and seen.
Mercury rules the mental plane, and since Mercury came out of retrograde, it's been deep in the emotional and intuitive waters of Cancer, trying to mend fences and repair hearts from the chaos created while retrograde.
So here we go again.
Leo energy makes us bold, brave and confident under this influence and we aren't afraid to speak up and speak out on our truths. It's great timing actually to emerge from the darkness of emotions over the last few months, and REALLY stand up proud! Whatever it is you've been afraid to talk about or hesitant in expressing outwards, will be the topic and theme of your truth as you are being encouraged to let it all out.
A lot of difficult truths were revealed while Mercury was in Cancer. The retrograde caused hurt feelings that we all tried so hard to avoid. We are so passionate about sharing our truths with Mercury in Leo, and our new truths have yet to be told.
Again, we need to remind ourselves of the few cautions that come with this energy.
Caution #1: Because we are all fired up and wanting center stage, listening isn't our best quality. We are so eager to have our voice heard that we may not be actually listening to those looking to express themselves, and instead we could be very rude and cut them off, or only "listen" to what they have to say waiting for our opportunity to speak. We are crappy listeners under this influence and that in itself might cause hurt feelings.
Caution #2: This energy influence makes us have the tendency to ramble on long after we've made our point and deliver our truth. Whatever it is you are brave enough to now talk about, needs all the attention it can get. Don't ruin the impact of your words being expressed by rambling on about it. Recognize when your message has been received and cut yourself off.
Caution #3: Because we are still under Mercury's retrograde shadow (until the 15th) we are still in clean-up mode trying to fix what was broken under the retrograde energy. This means that there is a fairly good chance that we may have to revisit what we spoke about under this energy influence to pick up some pieces or clean up the aftermath of our truthful expression at a time when emotions weren't clearly understood. This is just another reason to formulate what you want to say in your head, and then allow the brilliant Mercurial energy to analyze and edit the best way to deliver it all, and know when it cut it short.

Jupiter Goes Direct
Jupiter, the planet of growth and expansion has been retrograde in its place of comfort and power since April 10th, 2019. Jupiter first entered its place of power in Sagittarius back in November of 2018, providing us with major learning opportunities where expanding our minds, beliefs, and spiritual self is concerned.
When Jupiter went retrograde back in April, the energetic force and influence Jupiter usually lends us to make things happen outside of ourselves, turned the energy inward for a journey and exploration of our inner world. It has been a time of huge consciousness expansion as we've connected to our intuition and spiritual selves, helping to grow and expand the way we see ourselves and the world we live in.
If you know what area of your birth chart this transit is taking place in, you can bet that area of your life has seen the greatest growth, through the harshest of challenges since Jupiter moved into Sagittarius.
We've received huge revelations that we can't just unknow. We've revealed lots of repressed truth and memories, we've conscious or unconsciously have identified where it is in our life we've been trying to escape. And because Jupiter is all about growth and expansion, these issues have been magnified under this influence to really grab our attention.
Jupiter really doesn't mean any harm. It is the most positive planet we could have working in our favour, but Jupiter's energy does have the whole "blessing in disguise" kind of vibe. We really do face some ugly truths with Jupiter's help and assistance, but in this case, the truth really does set you free!
Now that Jupiter is going direct, we can take all we've learned about ourselves and our truth, and actually do something about it in our external lives. If you had people close to you reveal their ugly side and you can't unknow certain details, you might just have to implement some boundaries moving forward or choose to disconnect all together.
If you discovered a new truth in your relationship, how you feel about yourself, your career, or your desires, you will now receive an energy boost to go ahead and make the necessary changes in your external world to reflect your inner growth and the revelations you've received.

The Lion's Gate: 8/8
Today, we are going to experience a pretty significant energy shift as the Lion's Gateway opens. Every year on August 8th (8/8), the cosmic alignment of the Earth, the star Sirius, and the Galactic Center, all end up perfectly positioned and aligned in the sky in the sign of Leo, thus why it's called the Lion's Gateway.
When this alignment takes place, we will experience a high rate of increased energy flowing between the physical and spiritual realms. This surge of energy directly effects our DNA as our energy bodies are infused and downloaded with an energetic upgrade, an "awakening" so to speak. The vibrational frequencies are so high, that many of us will feel both the energetic and physical effects of this infusion on our physical and energy bodies. This is a supercharged download with an accelerated integration process.
What does this mean?! Basically, we are upgrading. Many of us have been going through utter turmoil waiting for huge changes to either take place, or waiting to see what's next for us if the changes have already happened. This isn't on a small scale either. We are talking about life changing, and life altering themes being spotlighted. Long lasting relationships are either just beginning or ending, career changes and the quest to align with your life path or inner calling will be a huge focus, your health issues will resolve as others are about to enter a time of health crisis or focus, and the overall ongoing detachment from material things will be a huge theme for everyone doing inner soul work.
Everything has been, and continues to be, under review, as we are energetically being forced to embrace our authentic selves, and step away from the ego based programming we have been operating from. Although these sound like scary, life changing events, rest assured that all of the changes are being brought up and carried through for our highest good. The transformative process of letting go of the old habits and ways of thinking and operating get a bit messy, but the ultimate result of all this inner work will be worth every last struggle once we are standing in our truth and embodying the love and light that infuses us during this beautiful galactic alignment.
As if the energies of the last few months weren't enough for us to deal with, the energy will be the strongest tomorrow when the gateway fully opens. In order to stay as grounded as possible throughout this time, please make sure you are doing all you can to find, and hold onto your center. If you haven't read How To Ground According to Your Zodiac, please read that now as it will be super helpful for you to understand how to ground through these very powerful shifts. Engage in mediation practices during these times, and spend as much time out in nature as possible.
The whole objective for these downloads is to help us align our hearts and our heads; aligning our inner worlds to our outer worlds, and encouraging us to shine our light in times of darkness.

The Chariot
THE CHARIOT (07) is the seventh major arcana card in the tarot. When THE CHARIOT is revealed, it suggests the willpower, strength, and determination of the seeker as the forge ahead on a new path and endeavour. The process of re-evaluating and taking stock of one's values has already taken place, and with the truth in alignment, you can now manifest your desired outcome. This is a card of encouragement, pushing you to take action on your decisions, as the plan has been set and you have tapped into your willpower to make it happen.
THE CHARIOT isn't a passive card. You can't just sit back and wait for things to happen. This is a card of action, focus, and determination, putting forth the hard work and efforts required to see a dream come to life. You need to be SO focused on your desired outcome, that no obstacle or challenge will sway you from your path.
This is a card of solid conviction, standing in your power, knowing what it is you want and not settling for less. This is a successful card and with it a message of power and confidence. This card will reassure those wavering in self-discipline, sinking in doubt, that as long as the focus and energy are there, a positive outcome will be supported. This isn't a time for you to cut corners, to skip steps, and to take the easy way out.
For a full and true manifestation of your vision, you will need to stay on the straight and arrow, taking and perfecting every step of the way, no matter how hard or long of a journey it may be. This is a time for you to be courageous, daring, bold, and expressive where enforcing boundaries are concerned. Your personal beliefs need to be strong both in yourself and what it is you are trying to accomplish.

New Moon In Leo
Today we have our Black, Super New Moon in Leo which serves as the catalyst for us to emerge with brand new energies and sense of self. This is the tipping point so to speak, where after months of emotional anguish we are feeling strong enough, revived, and renewed enough, to stand tall and proud as we walk out of the dark cave we've been hiding in.
This is a black moon, meaning it is the second New Moon in the same month (which doesn't happen very often), and it's also a super moon as the proximity of the moon from earth is at its closest distance, not only appearing closer than ever, but the intensity in which this moon is effecting the tides (and the water within us) is extreme.
A New Moon is classically a time to invite new ideas, intentions, new elements to our lives, and this New Moon is not only a great time to be setting new intentions, but it is the first New Moon in months that actually support us in manifesting.
We have been beaten down and knocked over the last couple of months. With eclipse season breaking us down, with all the planets in retrograde forcing a pressurized transformation of our inner-selves, this new moon, the absolute center of the zodiac wheel and galactic calendar has our hearts wide open, bearing all wounds in the name of love.
This New moon carries a lot of power, asking us to step up and take ownership, to take back our power, to take control of our lives, and to be the leader we need to be in our own worlds. This new moon takes place only 46 minutes before mercury comes out of retrograde, meaning we can finally start moving forward again and escape the emotional waters that many of us have been drowning in.
This New Moon taking place in Leo is the heart of the lion. This is when we allow the heart to lead, to show us where it is we've been living in fear, and where we've allowed our ego and critical mind to block our intuition and our heart from making the decisions.
Under this energy we are being encouraged to take the anxieties we feel in our gut up into our heart space, and the fears and doubts we create in our mental space, down into the heart chakra. And when you calm the mind long enough, you will see that the heart knows and heals all. No one knows you better than you know yourself.

Venus Enters Leo
Venus, the Goddess of love, money, and long-term commitment moves into the fiery and passionate sign of Leo today. Venus had a hard go in Cancer as she spent many months crying herself to sleep, rebuilding herself from disappointments from the heart, and reeling from the changes that took place within the family dynamic of the home. She spent most of the eclipse season feeling less than and broken. And now that the watery, tearful season is behind her, she can't wait to pick up the mood and dive into the passion of Leo.
Both Venus and Leo love love. They both want to find that special someone and connect on all levels. If you are single, you could find a very intense romance unfold under this energy. If you are already coupled, you will see a resurgence of romance and flirty fun. This is a time where we move forward with an open heart as we just released huge weights and energetic blocks from our heart chakra.
Love will be the focus during Leo season, as we reconnect with what we are passionate about. Creative projects will be reignited and anything that triggers an intense emotion will want to be expressed and shared.
Venus also wants to focus on her money. Although she is feeling good, positive and confident under this energy, she has a tendency to be a bit to generous and in turn overspend on things that don't really make sense to her long-term commitment and goals.
Venus is always thinking about the future. Even though her hair is down and she's dancing her little heart out under this Leo energy, she is still evaluating what means the most to her as far as her long-term commitment and values go. Any decisions that need to be made under this influence will have a light-heartedness to it to prevent you getting bogged down with the seriousness and responsibility of having to make major life decisions. The good news is, anything trivial that has the potential to drag us down will be tackled with a much more positive and optimistic mind frame. We are finding new worth in our relationships, in how we make our money, and how we are planning for the future.
There are some cautions that come with this energy. Because Venus takes love, money, and commitment very seriously, we have to make sure we don't become overly dramatic in our interactions. We want to avoid over dramatizing ourselves and over sharing our emotions. Of course we don't want to over spend, or commit to anything that our heart doesn't agree with. This is definitely a time where you need to let your heart lead the way.

The Aftermath of the Afterlife: Part 2
*** TRIGGER WARNING: Please be advised that the following post contains graphic and triggering content.***
The physical repercussions of what happened to me in that operating room have been the catalyst for me to learn all there is to know about the human body and how it functions. The long road of recovery is still taking place even 10+ years later. The autoimmune issues and secondary complications from all that took place is still a learning process. Just when you think you have it all figured out, your symptoms change, you become reactive to "safe" products and foods, and suddenly you have to start from square one.
Although the physical challenges have been my most difficult to overcome, the emotional, mental, and spiritual challenges I have faced weren't any easier. Of course with that kind of trauma and loss it takes a toll on your emotional and mental state. I spent 4.5 hours every week for the first year after the trauma with a psychiatrist and a mental health team who specialized in Women's Health Postpartum issues. I worked with grief counsellors to process the loss of my babies, and with the help and support of these specialists, I slowly but surely found my center again.
It was hard to process all that went on, all that had happened, and filtering my feelings and experiences to not reveal the spiritual crisis I was in after what I had saw. I was walking a very thin line of receiving help for the emotional and mental aspect, all the while knowing that I couldn't reveal the spiritual experience I had, in fear I'd be looked at as crazy or trigger some kind of event where I got locked up in the mental ward. I was terrified that what I had experienced would be looked upon as a mental crisis, so I kept those details and my experiences to myself.
I knew the minute I woke up in the hospital that I was different. I didn't feel like myself. I could see colourful mists around people, and somehow knew what they were thinking. I remember waking up when one of the nurses came into do a check on me, she smiled as I opened my eyes and hovered over me asking me if I needed anything. I said, "You have to go." She came closer to me and asked me to repeat myself, as my voice was still very much a whisper from the damage that took place during surgery. I said, " You have to go." "Go?" She asked, "Go where?" "The girl down the hall, she needs you." I said. Confused she looked at me and said, "What girl?"
At that moment a CODE BLUE rang throughout the hospital requesting all medical teams to head to the room the emergency was taking place in. As the nurse heard the call, she looked at me. I put my finger (the one with the "ET" heart rate monitor on it) up in the air pointing at the ceiling where the speaker was sounding off. "She needs you." I said. "You have to go!" The nurse was confused but left my room in a hurry to respond to the code call.
Later on that day, before she ended her shift, she came back into my room for final rounds. I opened my eyes and asked her if the girl was alright. She nurse looked uncomfortable, but told me that she was doing fine, that it was a close call but they were able to bring her back. I smiled at her, and said "She's scared. She's all alone with a new baby. She doesn't think she can do it. But she can. This is her chance." The nurse politely smiled at me, and quickly left my room.
When I finally got out of the hospital and could head home, I went to stay with my father. My house had too many stairs and I wasn't even able to walk unassisted at that point, so the stairs were a deal breaker for me. I was on some pretty heavy medications after the trauma. I would slip in and out of a dream state where I was experiencing some pretty new dream content, with some really disturbing messages. I had chalked it all up to the drugs until I stopped taking all my meds and the weirdness continued.
Once I stopped taking my meds, I actually couldn't sleep. I would fall into a dream state where I was back in the hospital waking up for the first time with all the doctors standing over me. I could hear babies crying in the background and the dream took a scary turn when the doctors started yelling at me about how I had already forgotten about my babies. They were tormenting me saying that I just left without my babies and now they will be given away, how someone else will raise them.
At that point in the dream I would wake up, terrified, sweating, crying, and reliving the whole trauma over again. This happened multiple times a night, and went on for weeks. The lack of sleep didn't make my days in physical and emotional therapy any easier. It took a toll on me. It got to a point where I was even scared to fall asleep because I didn't want to experience that dream again.
After 11 days of being awake, not falling asleep for even one second, I asked my doctor for help. She gave me some meds to help me sleep, and we worked through the mental and emotional issues connected tot the dream. I got an overwhelming urge to get a tattoo for my babies, memorializing them in the most permanent way I could think of. My boyfriend at the time (the "would be" father of my children) carried me into a tattoo parlour and laid me in the chair where I got my tattoo.
On my right arm, the side of my body that received the most damage, the side of my body that didn't have collapsed veins, the side of my body that kept me alive, I memorialized my children where I wear my heart on my sleeve. That night, as if I had made some kind of peace within myself. I slept for the first time since the trauma without any kind of nightmare forcing me to wake.
The weirdness didn't stop there though. I had been experiencing these really weird times where my ears would ring so badly that it was debilitating. It sounds like a microphone was too close to the speaker inside my head. I couldn't see anything, or hear anything around me when it happened, other then this loud screeching inside my head. This went on for a while. With no physical or medical explanation, I was left to deal with it on my own.
One night as I was watching tv, this happened again. But this time, the loud speaker in my head came through, like I had been scanning the radio for a clear channel. It sounds like many voices speaking together at one time. RUN! That's what I heard. RUN! Run?! Run where? I can hardly even walk how the eff am I suppose to run?!
The messages "RUN!" came through at least once a day. Me, now confused and numb to these experiences, I just let them come and go. Spirit doesn't like to be ignored though. Of course I didn't know that at the time, so it was a hard learning curve.
When I went to sleep at night all I dreamt about was me being in bed in a dark room. The whispers in the shadows kept repeating "Run... run.... run..." This went on for weeks. Finally, one night, the dreamscape changed. The whispers were still chanting, but this time they became louder. And the louder they got, the more I covered my head with pillows in my dream. I remember watching myself all curled up in my bed, my head covered with pillows, and then the chanting stopped. I watched myself take the pillows away from my head and when I sat up in my bed, there were figures of people standing all around me. They stood there, still, unfamiliar, and silent. And then they opened their mouths all at once and this high pitched frequency came streaming out.
In that moment I woke up.
This dream went on for months. The same dream, the same chanting, the same figures, the same high pitched frequency. I woke up at the same time, every time.
Six months later, I reached a huge goal in physio therapy. Finally walking unassisted, and able to stand for more than 10 minutes, I had another crisis. My boyfriend at the time, was an alcoholic, and an abusive one at that. The truth is, I had no business being with this guy. I knew he was trouble. We had had our first physical altercation the day before I found out I was pregnant. We decided that was our wake up call and that we had to put the past behind us, to start new and be better for our child.
To say that he was supportive of me during my trauma would be a lie. He spent the time I was in surgery drinking in the parkade, he was talking to other women and inviting them over to my house while I was still in the hospital, and he beat me down emotionally for "Not being able to provide him with children." "What's wrong with you? he'd say. Thirteen year old girls get pregnant and have babies the first time they have sex. What's your excuse?"
That kind of mental and emotional abuse is never okay, but when someone is already at their very lowest, that kind of talk can be deadly. Not in a position to fight, argue, or defend myself, I just took it. I just took whatever crap he threw my way and internalized it.
That night, on the day I reached my physio goal, he was drinking and became very dangerous. I had asked him to leave many times, but we both knew he wasn't going anywhere. At the end of my rope, I grabbed the phone and hid it under my blanket. I hit redial knowing he had talked to his parents earlier on that evening. Trembling, I held the phone still allowing them to hear the shitshow that was taking place in my living room. After a few minutes, when I felt they had heard enough, I hung up the phone. They immediately called back, and when he answered he played it cool like all was well in the world.
As I watched his face, I knew they were confronting him about all they had just witnessed. His eyes glazed over in blackness and he threw the phone at the wall smashing it in a million pieces. He threw is lit cigarette on my carpeted floor, dumped his beer over me before throwing it threw my window and came at me as I was sitting on the couch. "RUN!" The voices in my head screamed at me, "RUN! RUN! RUN!"
That was the first time in my life I had been thrown across the room like a rag doll. What seemed to be the longest minutes I had ever lived turned into a nightmare that even I couldn't wake up from. I crawled over the floor trying to reach my cell phone to call the cops. Just as the operator answered he grabbed the phone from me smashing that too. He had spent time in jail as a young defender and was terrified to go back as an adult.
"RUN!" They screamed, "RUN!" I got up an ran to the kitchen. He was screaming at me that he was going to kill me and I believed him.
Just as I reached my butchers block of kitchen knives, he came from behind and attacked me, trying to get the knife from my hands. He threw me against the cupboards and stood over me as I was screaming on the top of my lungs for help. In that moment I knew there wasn't a chance in hell that my neighbour was going to hear me screaming and that I was going to die in my own kitchen.
Suddenly I was looking over my body, again. I was up in the corner of the ceiling looking down on all that was taking place. I kept telling myself that it was okay, help was coming and that I was going to be alright. My physical self kept kicking and screaming and trying to get him off of me, to get his hands away from my throat. My spirit self was screaming at my body from up in the corner of the ceiling, trying to cheer me on and keep fighting.
Just as I thought I was living my last minutes of life, my spirit self, hoovering above me and him on the floor, seen his parents running down the hall. His father grabbed him off me and rushed him to get out of there before the cops came. His mother kneeled down beside me and when I took my first breath free of his hands my spirit self jumped back into my body.
With the boyfriend now gone, and me in utter distress, his mother picked me up off the floor and got me settled on the couch. I was covered in beer, spit, blood, and tears. My house was totally destroyed. Broken windows, smashed tv, broken phones, curtains hanging off the wall, the fridge and its contents tipped over. His mother cried with me as she cleaned me up.
The police arrived and walked threw the hanging screen door that he ripped off on his way out. And when the cop entered my home he was just about as impressed as I was.
I lied. I lied to the cop. I made up some bullshit story about what had happened, and brushed it off even though his mother begged for me to tell the truth. I couldn't do it. It wasn't because I loved him, or wanted to protect him, it was because I loved his parents and his family so much, that I couldn't bear to be the reason of why their son would be in jail.
Against the cop's and his mother's advice, I stood my ground and stuck with my story and let him get away "Scott-free".
I laid in bed all night without closing my eyes for one second. I was waiting for the sun to come up so I could go to my father's house when we woke up. Beaten and bruised, I showed up on his door step and that was the last time I ever stayed in my own house.
I was struggling both mentally and emotionally with all that had just took place. I was getting ready to take a shower to wash the night off of me and I broke down in tears.
In my head, I asked for God or whoever was listening, to give me a sign. Give me a sign that things will be okay, that I did the right thing, and that I'm safe. Not sure, what I was actually expecting, I took off my clothes to get in the shower, and as I stood there, looking at myself in the mirror, tears running down my face, I got my sign.
On my chest was a bruise in the shape of an angel. He had forcefully pushed me against the wall with such power, that his handprints were embossed in my skin.
The angels were with me. The angels were in me. I was finally safe.
Mercury Retrogrades In Cancer
Today, the planet of information, communication, and expression moves from Leo, back into Cancer. Still in a retrograde, Mercury has been making its way back through the signs revisiting some issues from the past with a different frame of mind. Mercury when retrograde, usually slows down our mental processes making the way we see things, and how we interpret information a bit cloudy and skewed.
When Mercury was retrograde in Leo, it made us go inward to explore where we are still holding pain in our hearts, where the truth was still urging to get out, where the fear of what we are too afraid to tackle head-on rose up for acknowledgement. Mercury retrogrades have the tendency to take us back in the past, to revisit some topics and themes that require attention and a new closure, and to reassess our plans before moving forward.
Now with Mercury creeping back into Cancer, we will be feeling a bit more sensitive and nostalgic than normal. The dramatics will continue, rearranging the family dynamic and reconstructing the boundaries we have in place to protect ourselves, but with Mercury now retrograde in Cancer, the emotional, and sensitive reactions will overtake what has been heated and fiery.
We are still in a time of reassessment of our plans, re-evaluating what isn't working and what needs to be tweaked, but under the Leo energy, we were running a little hot. Tempers were a bit more feisty in Leo than they will be in Cancer. Mercury retrograding back into Cancer gives us the opportunity to apply our intuition to what it is we are reviewing. Our softer sentiment can smooth the edges of what was a very fiery, hot topic, and help us to truly connect our emotions to these situations instead of allowing the pride of the lion to get in the way.
Because of the recent eclipse energies still settling within us, this energy influence from Mercury retrograding in Cancer will allow the download, the shift in energy, to be a bit more calm and peaceful than it was in its harsh and abrupt form while Mercury was in Leo. We still have some integrating to do, and the emotional emergence of Mercury moving back into Cancer will provide a closure to many topics and themes that were triggered back in June when Mercury first moved into Cancer in a direct motion. To refresh your memory on what Mercury moving into Cancer triggered for you, read this post.

Chiron Retrogrades In Aries
Chiron, the wounded healer planetoid, has been in Aries since February creating a healing energy that will help us all heal the wounds of our ego and identity, and turn those wounds into power. Chiron entered into Aries in April of 2018, and stayed there long enough to see the breakdown of who we are, either in our spirit or in our physical world. Chiron then retreated back into Pisces in September of 2018, during his last retrograde before fully diving into the healing process of our inner wounds, aligning our spirit with who we are in every day life.
Since Chiron moved into Aries for a long-term stay in February, we have been seeing it's effects on a public platform, as everyone is now empowered and speaking up and out about the pain and trauma they've endured. Chiron lets us know what wounds we came into this life to heal, and where it is we need to turn pain into power by the placement of his energy in your birth chart. We all come into this life, looking to heal certain wounds that we will accumulate throughout our lives, all in hopes that one day we will drop the mask, expose our wounds, and inspire others to do the same.
Today, Chiron is going retrograde in Aries, taking us on a little bit of a healing journey inwards. This is where we get to retrace our steps, examine ourselves and the wounds we've already exposed. This acts as a refresher course to provide some closure to the first layer of healing.
Chiron will be in Aries until 2027, providing us with a huge timeframe to heal the wounds that we've been hiding behind, and using as a crutch for our identity. Too many of us identify so greatly with our pain, that we don't know how to let go. We use it as a shield and as an excuse to move on in our lives. Some of us don't even know who we are without our pain identity. But now is the chance to peel back the first layer of our pain, to drop the mask, and get real with ourselves. We have learned certain behaviours and adopted certain ways of thinking out of our need to survive. Now we have a choice to drop the survival mode, and move into thriver mode.
Physically, Chiron in Aries spotlights the head. We could be feeling some pressure, headaches, migraines, and overall discomfort where our head is concerned. Ailments such as sinus issues, jaw pain, neck problems, will all fester with the sharp movements of Chiron through the sky.
Mentally, Chiron in Aries is asking us to be a bit more authentic and real in our lives. The masks we wear especially to hid our pain and insecurities is creating a false sense of self. We are being asked to "wake up", drop the mask, and start showing the world who we really are. This is about acknowledging that we do in fact wear a mask, we try to hide ourselves, especially where we are most vulnerable, and in turn, we are adopting the "victim" mentality. It's time to make a conscious decision to step away from being a survivor, and fully embrace the life of a thriver.
Emotionally, Chiron in Aries asks us to stand up for ourselves. This means recognizing where we give our power away to others, where we fail to implement the boundaries we need to protect ourselves. It is likely that your anger will fester up at this time. Ask your anger to show you what it's hiding. Often times, anger shows up when it's hiding pain, sadness, sorrow and grief. Let your anger show you what it is you really need to work on healing. Let is show you the road map to your soul's pain.
Spiritually, Chiron in Aries is going to ask yourself, "Who am I?" Get real with yourself. Take a good look at your motivations, your goals, and see if they are truly aligned with your heart. Take notice to how far you've strayed off the path of being authentic and real with yourself and everyone around you. Put the masks down once and for all.
Soulfully, Chiron in Aries asks us to accept ourselves. Recognize the inner conflict and the divide within, and accept all parts as one. When you divide yourself, you divide your power. To accept yourself fully is to harness every ounce of power you hold within. It's time to step up, to lead yourself into being the best, most courageous self you've ever known. Embrace your true essence and see how the world responds to your new vibration. Watch your path open up and gift you with things you've only ever held in your heart. For when we truly embrace every part of ourselves, honour it, respect it, we live in divine order and will be blessed as such.

Venus Enters Cancer
Today, Venus, the Goddess of Love, beauty, money, and long-term commitments, moves into Cancer, bringing a welcomed change to all of our relationships. In astrology, it’s Venus that often dictates our love lives, our worth, and what we seek in our long term plans.
Venus has finished up her time in Gemini, which was probably a rockier time for most of us. Even if you didn’t stray from your relationship, you felt torn about it in some way. Whether you weren’t quite sure if a particular person was “the one”, or you weren’t sure if you were ready to commit to a relationship, either way, something was unsettled in your love life.
We will see a shift within ourselves and our relationships with love, money, and the future, because Cancer is where her heart feels at home. Venus excels here, she’s comfortable here, which is important because it’s these qualities that will be surfacing for all of us in the coming weeks. Venus’ placement in Cancer triggers her wants, needs, and desires for a home, a family, and something that is so stable and grounding she never has to fear losing it. She wants to get married, to share lives, even homes, and ultimately to enter into the kind of partnership that radiates not only warmth and love, but also feels like home.
During this transit, we can expect some big changes, especially with the new moon in cancer solar eclipse that took place, upgrading our emotional capabilities. This means that our relationships will be changing and likely will be getting much more serious.
From now until late July, we will likely see couples who want to commit to each other, not out of obligation but out of the sheer excitement of being able to spend the rest of their lives with the one person in the world who makes their life that much better. This is a highly fertile time for couples looking to conceive.
Venus moving into Cancer is the ultimate time for upping your love game and getting serious about your commitments to another person. Don't be surprised at how romantically ewey and gooey you get over the next several weeks, as there are parts of you being awakened by this planetary shift. Be open to love now, both from yourself and from other people.

You can find all the ACTIVE and INACTIVE Astro eGuides here. Feel free to subscribe to the monthly Astro eGuide subscription to ensure you receive all the eGuides as the energy becomes active. You can always purchase them individually as you feel you need some support and guidance, or you can wait and check them our for FREE once they've expired.
As always, if you require any assistance navigating the current energies of your life, please book a session online, and I'd be more than happy to help guide you through.

Mercury Enters Leo
Today, the planet of communication, information, and expression, moves into the fiery, brave and bold sign of Leo. Leo is a fire sign and honours the heart-space. Leo is about speaking one's truth, living authentically, creative and romantic passions, and a fun, lively, child-like energy.
Leo is the performer of the zodiac, and tends to be a bit dramatic in their storytelling once they've taken over the spotlight. Because Mercury rules the mental plane, we've likely been debating big ideas in our heads, and trying to bite our tongues during conversations while Mercury was in soft, emotional and intuitive Cancer. But Leo energy makes us bold, and brave. We get confident under this influence and we aren't afraid to speak up and speak out on our truths.
Whatever it is you've been afraid to talk about or hesitant in expressing outwards, will be the topic and theme of your truth as you are being encouraged to let it all out.
A lot of difficult conversations were avoided while Mercury was in Cancer. We were so concerned with hurting other people or upsetting them with our words, that we actively avoided expressing ourselves. That all gets tossed out the window as Mercury moves into Leo, as we are so passionate about sharing our stories we aren't really concerned with how it will effect those that hear what we have to say.
There are a few cautions that come with this energy. Because we are all fired up and wanting center stage, listening isn't our best quality. We are so eager to have our voice heard that we may not be actually listening to those looking to express themselves, and instead we could be very rude and cut them off, or only "listen" to what they have to say waiting for our opportunity to speak. We are crappy listeners under this influence and that in itself might cause hurt feelings.
Another caution about this energy influence is the tendency to ramble on long after we've made our point and deliver our truth. Whatever it is you are brave enough to now talk about, needs all the attention it can get. Don't ruin the impact of your words being expressed by rambling on about it. Recognize when your message has been received and cut yourself off.
The third factor of this energy, is that Mercury will go retrograde next week, giving us an opportunity to revisit past situations, re-edit how we handled them, and revise the closure we need to provide in order for it to be settled. This means that there is a fairly good chance that we may have to revisit what we speak out about under this energy influence to pick up some pieces or clean up the atfermath of our truthful expression at a later date. This caution is just another reason to formulate what you want to say in your head, allow the brilliant Mercurial energy to analyze and edit the best way to deliver it all, and know when it cut it short.
As always, if you require any assistance navigating the current energies of your life, please book a session online, and I'd be more than happy to help guide you through.
