Jupiter fundamentally magnifies whatever it touches, meaning the radiant themes of Leo will be amplified on the world stage over the next year. Ruled by the Sun, Leo is the archetype of rejuvenation, creativity, and stepping onto the center stage of one's own life.

Get ready to channel your inner, more relaxed feline, because Mercury, the planet of communication and intellect, is retrograde in Leo from July 17th through August 11th. In the Northern Hemisphere, this cosmic pause arrives right in the heart of summer, offering a unique invitation to slow down, enjoy the season, and reconnect with the pure joy of play.
