Allow yourself to relax, unwind, and take things a bit more slowly. This week’s astrology is much more gentle and mellow than last week’s. However, it is also quite full of energizing planetary shifts moving into fiery, energetic, and active signs!
Mercury has recently moved into Sagittarius, creating an atmosphere where communication is more fiery, charged, excited, and straightforward. You may be finding yourself having more lofty ideas and feeling like there are fewer limits to what you can/can’t do. Enjoy this energy while it is there! Sagittarius is all about being adventurous and going past the limits and barriers that others (or even you) impose on yourself.
You may be feeling the urge to travel somewhere new, different, or far. It is also very possible that you feel a stronger desire to pursue new studies or education. Make sure you don’t dismiss these urges and thoughts as unrealistic; rather, think about how you can actually make it work within the limits of your current life.
Ask yourself as well if you feel whether you lead a life that is imbued with a deeper sense of meaning or not. It is very easy to get caught up in the mundane aspects of reality that you forget to pursue the things that make you feel connected to something greater and larger than yourself. Explore what those things might personally look like for you. This is an endless quest that you will be figuring out your entire life, so enjoy it, and don’t pressure yourself to have a final answer or goal! Sagittarius is a sign that focuses on the journey and the joy it provides rather than some specific or particular end-goal.
Another significant planetary shift we are experiencing is Mars’ recent move into Leo. Mars is so much more comfortable in this sign than Cancer, where it had been for the last few months. Mars is a fiery and action-oriented planet and, therefore, is a lot more at home and in its element in Leo.
Where Mars in Cancer possibly had you feeling more internal and thwarted in your ability to take action on things, this energy shift will grant you the opposite experience. This placement is inspired, edited, joyous, and very giving! You’ll find yourself feeling a stronger urge towards creative self-expression, and it is crucial that you follow that. Ask yourself whether you have practices in your life that feel like they are an outlet for your soul.
And if you realize that you don’t, relax and don’t put too much pressure on yourself. This process is meant to be a pleasurable and enjoyable one! Get curious and give yourself space to pursue and try out different things until you find that one (or even a few) things that are expressive of your being. One of the most beautiful things about this process is that when you give yourself permission to be yourself as authentically, genuinely, and unapologetically as possible, you end up giving others permission to do the same.
We are conditioned to make ourselves smaller and shrink in our being and expression. This is a great time to challenge these beliefs and step into the scary and very uncomfortable zone of not feeling shame or guilt about taking up space. Once you do that, you are able to take more responsibility for creating the kind of life you wish rather than hiding in the shadows and constraints of what society has placed on you!
