The Sun returns home to Leo cheered on by the planet of action and initiation, Mars, newly arrived in Gemini.
• Together with Jupiter, the oxygen of these two Air sign placements roars us all on, to embrace the passion, warmth and outgoingness of the Sun.
• Yet, just before this occurs, so the culminating position of the Sun in Cancer, links beautifully with the energies of Neptune, suggesting we should not eschew our instincts and senses in a mad scramble for action.
• Also, with the celestial power broker, Pluto forging complex links, positively to Mars but potentially more challengingly to the Sun, too much haste probably won't be a good thing.
• This can be particularly so if we are tempted to splash out financially, rashly for with the electric energies of Uranus clashing with Mercury in Leo, we may repent at leisure if we do.
• Mercury provides a grounding note to the week on Thursday, when it skates into the sign of pragmatism, Virgo, which it rules. This can help us grapple with details more succinctly.
• The Sun and Mars do come together in perfect alignment on Friday however, which is perfect for working on personal ideas and plans that inspire us, and then taking firm action. Ironically, Chiron in Aries turns Retrograde the same day, suggesting any issues to do with our identity is perfectly platformed.
