8/14  ::  Mercury Rx RE-Enters LEO (until Sept 9th):
Mercury is still in its Retrograde Process and now it is backing up into Leo, where we may need to be more creative and make new connections to how we would like to express ourselves going forward, at this new level of consciousness. In Leo, we are deeply supported to infuse our ideas with some new beauty, essence, love, light & truth. At the same time, it is still backwards giving us a chance to update & upgrade what we think of ourselves and our current presentation. Does your inner & outer match? Do the ideas that you are investing in still reflect your authentic sense of Self? Are you stuck in an old paradigm of your own making? Use this time to reflect and inquire with your Spirit Team to ask what is at the root of anything blocking your beautiful, creative, Authentic Self from shining through! Do your own personal inventory & review – of both your self-expression and creative ideas.

8/14  ::  Mars (actions & choices) ~conjunct~ Jupiter (expansion & consciousness):
This is an excellent energy if you are beginning a new project or business because you will have considerably more energy than usual so direct it consciously and use it wisely. Do not take unnecessary risks, but calculated risks are actually well-supported for a positive outcome under this influence. You will be optimistic and willing to do whatever it takes to facilitate progress. At the same time, if you are not initiating something and perhaps are struggling on one level or another, then watch your temper as things may appear worse than they really are. This is a huge dose of Truth & Passion, direct it consciously and you will accomplish great things in a short amount of time.

Mars has a 2-year cycle and Jupiter has a 12-year cycle so meeting up in the same Sign is Special! The Sign becomes the *magic* ingredient to take note of, in this case (2024), they are connecting at 16* GEMINI and the last time they initiated here was in 1989 – and the next will be 2060. So you see it is very special for this GEMINI Area of Life (House). Not to mention that it is automatically a New Cycle when any two planets get together. Mars is so useful for the individual to get some clarity of purpose. Jupiter in GEMINI is expanding our consciousness and asking us to improve this department of life. Lean into the expansion of whatever narrative you are currently living – whatever you’re doing, think a little bigger, deeper & more expansive! This can be a brand-new cycle of cultivating networks of friends, support systems & expanded communities. This is a very special opportunity to expand your thinking and add some imagination to your creative ideas. Your consciousness has evolved over the last 2-years and who you were and what you wanted in 2022 may have changed by now. And it has really evolved since the late 1980’s / early 1990’s so how can you honor this shift in education, perceptions and all that you have learned since then. These two will inevitably square off with Saturn, which will push us to create containers, structures or foundations for these new expanded ideas that express a new Identity & Purpose for you personally. Remember, self-preservation is not selfish but essential so take advantage of the once-in-2-years to re-set your identity & purpose with Mars. And with Jupiter, use the once-in-12-years to re-set what you believe to be true or possible for you, the individual, in your own Gemini Dept.

8/16  ::  Mars (anger & identity) ~square~ Saturn (restriction & purpose):
This energy signifies a sense of constrained actions, often accompanied by feelings of anger and/or frustration. You may perceive limitations & obstacles hindering your progress, leading to a sense of being blocked and unable to move forward. However, rather than succumbing to anger, you could view this period as an opportunity to carefully assess your actions and strategically plan your next steps for a more opportune moment or supportive energy. This activation necessitates a slowing down and a thorough review of your personal plans and/or professional goals. Proceeding with consciousness & patience increases the likelihood of success compared to hasty or impulsive actions. You might encounter internal or external blockages that seem to impede your path, prompting a powerful urge for change or progress. However, such obstacles may be more rooted in perception than reality, and they are usually rooted in feelings of inadequacy or fear. It is essential to recognize & release these fears, as they often represent false evidence appearing real. Taking responsibility for shaping your own life is crucial, as external circumstances often mirror internal beliefs. To navigate this period, break down your grand vision into smaller, more manageable steps that allow you to take small steps even with your current constraints. Focus on cultivating a new purpose, based on a new reputation and planning behind the scenes. This is laying the groundwork necessary to support your grand vision when the time is ripe for its full expression.
