Labor Day Weekend Edition...
Family Birthday's this week: Jesse, Mike, Marian, Sally, Mary-Kate, Bud...

The weekly horoscope's is completely in sync with the Holiday Weekend's energy... A time to fire up the Barbie-Q and to offer some "burnt offerings" with friends and family... To offer thanks and appreciation for the fading summer-time season... It also signals it is time to start preparing for the fall season that is rapidly approaching.

We are still dealing with what can be like a pinball effect as so many planets are connected, and the planet energy can bounce all over the chart taking us from highs to lows and back again... The key to transits like this is to "know your limits and remain within them"... During a high phases, yeah you might feel like Superman but if you push yourself too hard and burn-out, then you are likely to be next to useless when the phase shifts and you enter a low... And as the Moon moves so quickly, these phases will be kicking in and out all day... The idea is to set up a rhythm like breathing.

It is the Holiday weekend, so I am going to cut this short... Labor Day is one of my favorite holidays, because it reminds me to be more aware of all the way-cool things people do for us... The things that often go un-noticed or un-appreciated... I had to buy a new dishwasher and oven yesterday and the woman at the store was totally fantastic... She took the time to 'Splain to me why some of the products were hundreds of dollars more than the others... Sheeshka, they all look the same and do the same things I thought... But she showed me the different features and that made the choices super easy... As I was walking out, I had to turn around and make a point of telling her what a great job she did turning something that I usually dread into something that was fun and that I learned a lot too.

That's it for now... I gotta go clean and fire-up the grill...

Keep the Faith... Better Days and Higher Love are comin' soon...

The weekly horoscope for Leo has a repeated theme that challenges you to be more aware of the impact and effect you have upon others... There is a lot you can learn with transits like this, especially how you can communicate more effectively... At the same time, this is a transit that has a "me-first" kind of vibe... (just sayin')... It goes with what I wrote above, in that you can become so locked into your own issues/perspectives and others feel they are getting mixed signals from you.

...Show some Love...
