Leo July 22nd - August 22nd

Whether you like it or not, career and vocation issues call and you have to deal with it proactively, and indeed before the 9^th many of you will find that your charms can be very effective in this cause, and all of you before the 15^th can get your voice heard in the public domain as you have effective communications to get across.

However for many of you August born Leos, Mars is creating some turbulence. Authority figures at work and elsewhere might be quite a force to be reckoned with and not acquiescent to your desires, and you have to be careful that you don’t make enemies by being a bit of a bull, or lion, in a china shop. In fact intransigence and pride is a problem, try and not be too guilty of this yourself, as you can be a very fixed sign when it comes to your views.

Jupiter however is favourable to those born August 8^th to 18^th this month. He is making you sociable, giving you leadership skills and allowing you to connect to people through networking who can be very advantageous to you. Friends equal support. Working for the greater good rather than just for yourself is something that you can shine at now and your warmth and inspiring nature can be at its very best and brings you rewards that may be deferred , but still valuable and gratifying

However Saturn is less friendly to those born July 27^th to August 2^nd. Problems to do with family and domestic issues cannot be kicked down the road. Deal with them now, face the reality and do what is necessary, even if it means hard work, discipline and biting some bullets. You will be glad later.  Saturn brings a return of karma and you need to redress a balance and pay your dues under Saturn’s domain. You really do benefit hugely by putting wrongs to right now

Uranus is very inspiring now for the small group born August 2^nd to 5^th. Unexpected opportunities for freedom and change, liberty and liberation are coming your way through overseas opportunities or academic pursuits. A need for a leap into a better future needs to be acknowledged and cooperated with, and that includes a bigger picture understanding of the world, beyond just one’s ego.
