Weekly Transits – 7/29/2024

As we wrap up July and begin August, we have an opportunity to use the upcoming Leo New Moon, coincidentally the same day Mercury stations retrograde, to rest and reflect on the events of the past month and gear up for a busy Fall. Use this week as Mercury has just entered Virgo to make some lists, regroup on plans and get organized.

Venus makes the only 2 exact aspects this week, first trining Chiron, the wounded healer on Tuesday then squaring Uranus, the great awakener on Friday. These transits could bring up something healing and unique in a relationship or with finances. Take the learnings from the week to set clear intentions on Sunday’s New Moon in Leo – how can you best shine, share your gifts and honor yourself going forward?

Luckily, with Mercury going retrograde back to Leo 22, we’ll have the entire month of August to RE-everything, especially as it relates to the 1st decan of Virgo and 3rd decan of Leo themes of conviction, optimism, straight-forwardness, independence and pride!

I personally find Mercury retrogrades to be a great opportunity to refine, rejuvenate, redesign and restructure our lives to be exactly the way we want them. In Virgo/Leo, we’ll be given the opportunity to do just that.

More on Sunday’s New Moon coming soon…but spoiler alert: it’s sitting in the same degree (Leo 13: “An old sea captain”) Venus sat in during last week’s Full Moon, re-emphasizing the importance of the events which recently culminated, and bringing us some much needed peace after a tumultuous time.
