I recently watched one of my favorite films from the seventies, Blue Collar, starring Richard Pryor, Yaphet Kotto and Harvey Keitel. While the films main themes of corruption of the unions, the plight of the working class and betrayal have nothing to do with your life at present, there’s a scene where Richard Pryor struts into a bar chanting, “partaay, partaay, partaay” over and over again. That’s your mantra for the first week of August as the solar energy of the leonine sun shines down upon you. You’re in demand and loving every single moment. That shifts mid-month and it’s all about practicality and the nitty-gritty from the eleventh on. Take advantage of the delicious vibes enveloping you right now through the eleventh. Late Leos born between the 19th and the 22nd receive a super jolt of creative intensity for the next few months with retrograding Pluto making contact with your natal sun. Look into past lives, in this one and others and look into who were and what you learned. A great creative exercise for you would be to create a past life collage and let the pictures you choose tell their story. Saturn is still making you work harder than ever, for what appears to be less, but don’t fret even kings and queens have to re-visit humility from time-to-time as it keeps them honest and in touch with their humanity.
