June 22 to July 23
As Mars changes direction, it’s time for a financial reality check. Take a close look at your spending patterns and assess where your money is really going. This isn’t about being frugal, it’s about being smart.

Leo
July 24 to August 23
As Mars enters its rewind phase in your sign until early next year, it could be more difficult to take the initiative or to follow through on your goals. Don’t be afraid to pause and perhaps step back. If your heart isn’t in something, you could struggle to keep going anyway. While you might prefer to race ahead, this isn’t going to happen now. Slow and steady is the way, Leo.

Libra
September 24 to October 23
The coming weeks can bring dissatisfaction with a group situation or with aspects of your social life. Does it seem that despite your lively personality no-one understands you? Being more accepting of yourself and others could smooth the way ahead. With the assertive Mars now regressing, you may delight in jettisoning contacts that don’t do anything for you. If so, you’ll feel better for it.
