LEO ( 21st July - 21st )August

Family will be the important factor for you Leos out there. Relationships could be rather draining and diplomacy will be required. Finances are strong but not overly exciting. This would be a great time for a sudden holiday if you can organize it. Work is consistent but also not exciting, right now it is better to play it safe than gamble on a new direction. For those involved in study or in the education field - you are the exception to the Leo January rule. Anything education related has a high level of satisfaction and success attached. Health issues are centered around the gut and digestive system so be careful what you ingest

While you may start to feel that you are invincible, careful not to burn the candle at both ends please because the energy will only gather momentum as the month flies by.

LIBRA (23rd September - 22nd October)

A quiet time to cruise through this month. This is a time for solidifying your path and building upon strong foundations.

Learning to let go of the things that have not been working for you will be your hardest lesson. Learning new skills will give you the advantage later on.

Staying out of the spotlight during this month is not a bad thing at all

CAPRICORN (21st December - 19th January)

This month just keeps ticking over without any major highlights. It is strong and dependable and reliable just not terribly exciting. Hard work and long hours could also be required or expected from your employer. People ask a lot from you this month which may cause some resentment. Try and maintain some balance of 'me' time verses 'them' time and you should win out. This is not the best month to start new projects but it is a great month to continue with last years efforts. Specialist appointments could be in the wind, don't put medical needs at the bottom of your to do list please. Sun cancers are also on the radar.

Crystal for the month: Aventurine.
