7/19/22 ✨ Mercury Enters Leo, Chiron Stations Retrograde
✨ Happy Mars Day!
SUN IN CANCER | MOON IN ARIES
AFFIRMATION OF THE DAY: Every moment is an opportunity to transform.
🪐 MAJOR TRANSITS:
MERCURY ➡️ LEO ♌️ (5:35 AM)
Get ready for bold words! Mercury in Leo brings conversations to center stage. We're all a little more performative (aka dramatic) with the way we express ourselves under this transit. This is the perfect time to make big presentations or pitch daring plans. We're proud of our ideas and we can communicate them more courageously now. But fair warning- our ego could take the wheel in conversations too. Make sure you're giving other people space to share their points of view as well!
♈️ CHIRON STATIONS RETROGRADE (16º) 8:21 AM PT
When the Wounded Healer begins its five-month backspin, we could be forced to review the healing journey we've been on. Chiron in Aries has put the focus on childhood trauma and many of us have been doing inner-work to address old wounds. Anything we've been avoiding could come out of the shadows during this retrograde. This is not a transit to be feared, but rather an opportunity to address the wounds we've been carrying inside of us and gain new perspectives about how to take care of them. With Chiron in Aries, the focus is on self-healing.
♋️ SUN OPPOSITE ♑️ PLUTO rx (27º) 6:38 PM PT
Intensity is the name of the game as the Cancer sun opposes Pluto retrograde this Tuesday night. Anything that has been cracking beneath the surface could fully crumble now- both physically and mentally. We can clearly see what is falling apart now, which allows us to let it fully break down so we have a clean slate for a new beginning. But we are also more prone to trying to control or manipulate the changes happening in our life. Beware of power struggles today. This transit is also known to bring anger or violence. Don’t put yourself in any dangerous situations. This is a point of transformation.

THE MOON:
🌖 WANING GIBBOUS MOON IN ARIES ♈️
Let it out and sweat it out. The waning Aries moon asks us to release through action. Movement is the best medicine under this lunation. We might even be able to gain a clearer understanding of where we need to let go by checking in with our body.
♈️ MOON CONJUNCT ♈️ CHIRON rx (16º) 10:00 AM PT
We become very aware of Chiron stationing retrograde as the moon joins the Wounded Healer. This transit can provoke painful emotions that show us what we need to heal. We might also find ourselves reflecting on our journey and how much we’ve learned along the way.
♈️ MOON SEXTILE ♒️ SATURN rx (23º) 11:00 PM PT
We end this Tuesday with a supportive angle between the moon and Saturn, helping us check in with the lessons we’ve been learning. We’re able to be more mature and responsible under this aspect. We can be more disciplined and reserved tonight.

✨ TSJ’S TAKEAWAY:
Let’s get loud! Mercury enters Leo this Tuesday morning, bringing bolder words and fiery expression. We can proudly share what’s on our heart and pitch grand ideas over the next three weeks. But Chiron also stations retrograde today, beginning a five-month review of our healing journey. We can learn a lot from the Wounded Healer if we’re willing to take a good look at ourselves and what we’ve learned. We’ll really feel Chiron’s influence as the Aries moon joins it while it’s switching directions. This could bring up old triggers or discomforts. We might even feel nostalgic about who we used to be. The energy intensifies tonight as the Cancer sun opposes Pluto in Capricorn. We can clearly see what is breaking down now in order for us to have a clean slate… but the crumbling might feel messy in the moment. Beware of power struggles or dangerous situations. Luckily, the Aries moon is supported by Saturn tonight too, helping us slow down and act with maturity. Make space for transformation.
