General overview: Leo (July 23 - August 22)
Change is not something you generally like to do unless it is on your terms. Well 2018 will have its fair share of unexpected surprises that will force you to become more open-minded and flexible.
Your daily rhythm becomes an important focal point because there is a lot of hard work to do that can take its toll on you.
You need to reorganise your schedule and try to keep your body, mind and spirit triangle in a better and more integrated balance.
Don't let pride rule your actions, because life can pull the rug from under your feet unexpectedly, forcing you to slow down and focus on your foundation areas.
Your tribe becomes your rock to help you stay focused and grounded for this fluctuating year. Put health and fitness as a priority and try not to let those stress levels rise too high.
Love and relationships
The intensity of life has pushed you to have to look more deeply at your key relationships and your relationship with yourself.
This is highlighted further by the eclipses that take place in the area of self and the area of relationships first in January/February and again around July/August 2018.
Work and your public status takes centre stage this year and you may not be as light-hearted and playful as usual because life may force you to stay present and focus on catching all the balls you are juggling at the moment.
By November 2018 Jupiter moves into the more abundant sign of Sagittarius and livens up the area of love helping you to embrace the fun-filled things in life that make you feel alive.
Work and money
Work comes under the spotlight this year as the erratic energy of Uranus moves into the area of vocation and public status from mid May 2018 churning things up.
This can be unsettling, but it can also be a chance for a clean break and a fresh new start.
Change becomes the theme and you may need to work extra hard and be extra flexible to handle the shifts and changes that will keep you on your toes this year.
There may be a speed wobble around July – September where you need to shift gear, slow down and reassess a few things to help you find a more regulated pace to continue with.
You may need to dust off your books and get back to studying a few things in late 2018 –March 2019 to freshen up your knowledge on certain information, giving you the tools and confidence to handle the work demands and new opportunities that are being presented to you.
Financially you may start investing more wisely and putting your money into things that can grow slowly over time rather than instant quick fixes that have burned you in the past.
Neptune is still in the area of other people`s resources, so avoid spending above your means or maxing out your credit card. Read the fine print carefully when agreeing on joined investments of any sort.
