Clarity & Opportunity with the Sun & Mercury

On August 16th, the Sun will make its return to the Vedic sign of Leo, where it will move closer and closer to our retrograde Mercury.

This is a profound time for revelations and insights into your psyche. These two planets will be crossing a powerful section of the zodiac known for bringing karmic patterns to the surface.

To me, karma is simply the repetitive emotional patterns with which we consciously or unconsciously engage.

This entire month has a theme of overcoming self-limiting beliefs and the stories we tell ourselves.

And the upcoming week is the precipice of this opportunity with the energy building as our Full Moon arrives on Monday, August 19th.

So, how can you benefit from this time?

Clean Out the Clutter

This weekend through next week is a great time to clear out cluttered spaces in your home, office space, and vehicle. Cleanse your environment and you’ll be amazed at the mental clarity which arrives.

Journal about Your Challenges & Victories

Use these upcoming days to review situations to help you see some of the patterns and beliefs you have about your life. 

Some of the prompts I use are as follows:

• What were my victories and how did they feel?
• When did I fall from grace and why?
• How would I do it differently next time?
• What is the greatest expression of myself?

Meditate and Practice Yoga

Join a yoga class, find a guided meditation, or do it on your own! These practices help you de-stress, breathe deeper, and give you perspective.

Remember that this is a potent time with extensive opportunities. If you become triggered, it means there is a clearing ready to take place. Embrace it. Breathe through it. And remember who you are becoming.
