Mercury Transits Leo July 2024: Time for Bold Communications!
Mercury is moving from a gentle Cancer to a fiery Leo. As we leave behind sentimental love notes and rom-com vibes, Mercury moves into the lively and charismatic sign of Leo from July 19 to August 22, 2024. Mercury influences how we think, speak, and connect mentally, so with this shift, our thoughts and communication will be infused with Leo’s bold and fiery energy. If you’ve been holding back on expressing your feelings, starting a project, sharing your ideas, or being your true self, this is the perfect time to let loose.
Leo is a positive fire sign and thrives on love and dramatic displays of affection. With Mercury in Leo, you’re encouraged to embrace the possibilities of what could be and act as if those possibilities are already true, especially in personal projects and romantic interests.
However, the retrograde energy of Mercury from August 5 to August 29, 2024, will impact relationships and communication both personally and professionally. Due to a lack of commitment and busy schedules, you might experience clashes of opinion and the need for reassessment. This period will push you out of your comfort zone, encouraging you to work on new ideas and plans.
