We're slipping into retrograde season, an ideal time to stop, slow down the pace, work out what you're doing, where you're heading and why. Love, money and beauty fall under Venus' domain and, in fire sign Leo, there's passion and fun to be had. Yet, a retrograde planet means that things can be hidden from you so don't rush through life. Will you be reviewing and reassessing your love life, a partnership, your expenses or what brings you pleasure? Both the Full Moon on August 1st & the New Moon on August 16th feel celebratory but nothing is certain. Keep your eye on what's changing as events are moving fast. It's an ideal month to dive deep into a project that inspires you. What will you create or bring into being? There's alchemy and magic afoot, especially on that potent New Moon. Pay attention to the details, the practicalities but know that from July 23rd to September 15th, either Venus or Mercury are retrograde - therefore, be careful what you say Yes to and get ready to reorient your compass when necessary. Grab yourself a cuppa, put your feet up and join us as we take a deep dive into the astrology of the month ahead.  Sally Kirkman: www.sallykirkman.com Christina Rodenbeck: www.oxfordastrologer.com Support the show Hosted on Acast.
