A Strategic Step Back: Mercury Retrograde in Leo, August 16

A Strategic Step Back: Mercury Retrograde in Leo, August 16

Mercury, the planet of communication and thoughts, has been stationed retrograde in the sign of practical Virgo since August 05. Yet despite the inherent chaos of the retrograde transit, we haven’t felt the bumps on the road so much — until now. During its retrograde transit, Mercury moves back to Leo on August 16, where it will stay until it stations direct on August 28. 

These two weeks, supercharged by the Aquarius Full Moon on August 19, are going to be a catalyst for you to change your life and fight for the things that light your soul on fire. Not for nothing, we’re just coming out of the 888 Gate, where we set our manifestations and envisioned the perfect life. This bumpy ride is just clearing up the path for it!

Read on to find out how Mercury Retrograde in Leo will impact your daily life.

Aries

Time to return to an old fling, or to an old creative project. There’s some exciting lessons for you there.

Taurus

Miscommunication and grudges amid family members might make you moody but try to understand both sides. You can be reasonable.

Gemini 

Make sure your words and online presence accurately reflect your values. Don’t say anything that could be used against you.

Cancer 

Be prepared for some extra expenses around this time. You won’t be able to save as much money. That’s okay. 

Leo

This is not the time to be making big decisions. Revisit your goals. Know you’re free to change your mind.

Virgo

People from your past may be making a comeback, confusing you. Listen to what your intuition says. It knows best.

Libra

Whether reconnecting with old friends or growing apart, be open to change and feedback from your community.

Scorpio

Be extra mindful of your public image, especially with regards to your work. Tie up loose ends. Expect the unexpected.

Sagittarius

Be flexible when it comes to travel plans. Things will change a lot, but you can still learn from them.

Capricorn

Don’t sign any contracts or business agreements if you can avoid it. Double and triple check everything. Ask more questions.

Aquarius

A fight between you and your partner may be unavoidable. Try to forgive them and see things from their perspective.

Pisces

Pay extra attention to your health right now. You may be tempted to bring back an old, unhealthy habit. Don’t.
