As the Moon travels through Leo you could be getting out and about, learning, teaching, writing or journaling, making more effort with siblings or characters in your area.

Allow yourself an opportunity to address what usually goes unmentioned, exploring the topic of home, a parent or life behind closed doors. Find you can discover more, and anticipate there’s even greater treasures waiting to be found within.

Be open to a guide, teacher, theology, religious or astrological insights and note what’s opening your mind – the life philosophy or thinking that moves you. Relationships or private topics could lead you to see the world differently.
You might consider long-term plans and the inevitabilities in life that are confronting or intense, Capricorn. We are all likely set to suffer, pay taxes, and need to work with others.
