Better every time

What do you love doing just for you?

Singing in the car with the windows up. The sketchbook only you open. Getting your favorite recipe exactly right. The run that clears your head. The pleasure is in being present doing it.

Which one could you happily spend a whole afternoon on? On the 4th, the Sun meets Mercury in Scorpio. Mercury, the planet of thought and communication, is retrograde and closer to Earth, so its effects are stronger. In Scorpio, the sign of depth, you want to get to the bottom of what interests you: ask another question, follow a detail, try a different approach.

Pay attention to the conversation that leaves you buzzing, the subject you read about again and again. Your goals come into focus, along with the steps to pursue them. Experiment, take notes and let your discoveries guide you.

Let yourself be silently drawn by the strange pull of what you really love. It will not lead you astray.

Build on what you do well. On the 7th, Jupiter, the planet of growth and wisdom, approaches the South Node in Leo, with Mars, the planet of action, nearby. Leo is the sign of the heart, and the South Node marks skills you’ve developed and pastimes you’ve enjoyed for years. With Jupiter, you recognize new possibilities in those abilities. With Mars, you have the drive to act.

What you know by heart becomes your starting point. Learn a more challenging song on the guitar. Pick up a new painting technique. Make up a dance to a favorite track. Run a different route. Enjoy finding out what you can do.

Then, choose the pleasure you’d like to make more room for, and set your intention. On the 9th, the New Moon in Scorpio begins a cycle in the sign of commitment and deep change.
