Leo: Monthly business

The month starts on a tense note when mercury in your sign opposes saturn retrograde in aquarius on august 1. The following day, the leo sun opposes saturn retrograde. Both of these energies can cause strain in your business partnerships. They can also make you feel as though you’re not being appreciated by your boss and colleagues.   the third also isn’t very great for your career as mercury and uranus in taurus square off. This brings a lot of talk about professional change. There might be a new avenue you want to pursue in your career at this time.   it’s also a time to watch out for unexpected unemployment, career shifts, and professional advancement, any one of which could take a toll on your ego when the sun and uranus square off on august 6.   the good news is that the leo new moon on the eighth is a time of immense change and growth. It offers a powerful new beginning for you and can lead to amazing opportunities, but only if you’re open to them.   however, all of that could be overshadowed by the stress and conflict that’s brewing internally as you navigate these intense energies. The blue moon on august 22 dissipates these inner vibes, allowing you to let go of the negative sentiments and start fresh.
