Leo season starts July 22, time for the sun-ruled lions of the zodiac to party and revel in their natural cosmic element (and enjoy their birthday).
Time for the rest of us to enjoy the positive Leo-y vibes this season amplifies – drama, passion, love, romance, self promotion, nobility, self esteem, and generally feeling yourself to be the top cat, the head of the pack.
Leos are proud, strong, regal, and full of energy and vitality. Take heart, have faith, and be bold about putting your best self forward and getting what you deserve.
Let the tarot give you a nudge as to where to make a bold move and get what you truly want right now, this Leo season!

Tarot card for Aries for Leo season: The Lovers
Meaning: Be edgy, provocative, passionate, and inspiring. Don’t commit yourself to an ideology, opinion, position or role… be a roving reporter, a free-wheeling analyst, a challenging debate partner.
There is opportunity in the ‘grey’ this Leo season vs being so black and white. The Lovers shows you’ve got the smarts, shrewdness, and verbal agility to play this game and win and the prizes are worthwhile. People want to be challenged and provoked, and you’re there to do it!

Tarot card for Cancer for Leo season: Eight of Swords
Meaning: Unpick the habits, beliefs, or relationships which dampen your confidence and self esteem.
The Eight of Swords is a clear signal to recognise the ways you undermine yourself, see the patterns, notice the triggers and signals, and then actively seek to stop it and replace the habit with a new attitude and approach.
It might be as simple as quietening the negative self talk or doubting chatter that troubles you sometimes and knocks your self-confidence. Be your own best friend, be the person you are for others, the supportive and encouraging voice of kindness.
