Leo Horoscope for July 2013

The time is right for exploring interior realms, Leo, as you link your head more fully up with your heart. Your usual out there persona is taking a break this month and it gives you the chance to meditate on what lies within. Strange happenings could transpire to affect both business concerns and your relationship scene, and these could throw a temporary monkey wrench into anything that you have entirely planned out. In a time of Mercury Retrograde you can expect the unexpected. Such starting events do succeed in bringing enlightenment in unusual ways. While not a good time to make anything happen according to a pre-arranged agenda, on the other hand this is an excellent time to journal or to simply reflect on where your life is leading you.

As the month begins, you are uncharacteristically taking time off from outer pursuits, settling into a more meditative stance with the retrograde of Mercury through your sector of dream imagination and inner realities. You might try thinking back to last March when a similarly staged retrograde of Mercury stimulated inner realities. You also could still be reflecting on transformational realizations and startling epiphanies stemming from just the previous weekend, when the Last Quarter Moon late evening of June 29th triggered you into big thoughts regarding life direction. You have lately been dealing with potential illusions, and also potentially with certain stumbling blocks also, that are perhaps even beginning to affect career decisions, although if so, these can definitely be surmounted. Such trials could come to be regarded as a form of blessing, getting you to think more deeply into your situation.

You are placing your faith in stabilizing home and family influences, and also in respecting the vast potential of your inner world as productive of fresher insights than that of which your outer world is capable. The retrograde of Mercury is especially poignant in this regard since it is taking place in the sector of your solar chart that elicits the deep unconscious parts of your psyche. You are this month exploring these deeper aspects of your earthly existence more productively than ever before, and with greater delight. It is a paradox that life in the interpersonal planes and regarding concrete manifestation needs these subtle and eve mystical interior realms to fully succeed, and yet, as you are finding out more and more, this is a baffling but simple truth.

As you continue to find new places inside yourself that you had previously only suspected were there, you benefit from the long trine of Saturn and Neptune, which both subvert and reinforce each other and lead you to greater possibilities for connection as well as potential partnership confusion. You are also quite focused and a bit mystified regarding the prospect of making a better integration within you. The nature of Neptune is mystical and vague, and since it is located in your sector of intimacy and personal evolution, and strengthened by Saturn, you have tremendous focus now for delving within your own interior nature and finding new seeds of intimate connectivity.

This is a pivotal month for you in many ways. Although not much appears to change, the rearrangement of your psyche that is proceeding throughout this month and into next, is profound, and will lead, eventually, to a thorough-going transformation in your life direction and in how you see the world around you. The confusion comes in as you attempt to apply logical categories, or any form of expectation, to this endeavor. The recommendation for Mercury Retrograde is in any case to adopt a "wait and see" attitude toward as much of your life as is humanly possible. This idea goes double for you right now as you continue to explore the deeper places within yourself and discover new facets of interpersonal connection with significant partners.
