It’s Leo season and it’s time to express ourselves. How can we open our hearts to the wonders of life and shine bright like Leo’s ruling planet, the Sun?

We’ll be able to face our own delusions and the illusions of others. Uranus goes retrograde on August 19 and will remain in a backward motion until January 18 of 2022. We can now focus on our personal progression with fewer distractions or obstacles. The chaos of the outer world will calm down and we can make some major headway in the remainder of 2021.  Here are your August 2021 horoscopes.
