A fiery, sociable Leo Sun until the 22nd and an even more enthusiastic and firecracker Mars in Sagittarius all month will make for a flamboyant, at times noisy few weeks. Leo loves to be centre of attention and Mars in Sagittarius is nothing if not opinionated. Everyone will be hogging the limelight and promoting their pet causes. The virtue of Fire is that it believes in and usually attract luck as well as inspiration, so it should be a lively time.
Venus moving into earthy, sensible Virgo after the 5th will lend a helpful note to proceedings and maintain balance by putting the brakes on over indulgence.
Saturn trine the Sun on the 1st and Uranus trine midmonth will give a hint of productive influences to come later in the year, where gradual changes can be made which merge the best of the old with the best of the new.
The Virgo Sun in the final week will settle down to a steadier working routine for a few weeks. Though Mars will be in less than good humour, meeting an impatient and accident-prone conjunction to Saturn on the 24th and a panicky square to Neptune on the 26th. Venus will smooth over rough edges with a frivolous, fun loving conjunction to Jupiter and then glide into diplomatic Libra as the month ends.
