Mercury retrograde in Leo is a bit like the planet of communication deciding to get on stage with a superhero cape and glitter in its eyes! 🌟 Warning, it's going to shine... but not always in the right way.
During this period, your ego might play the diva. Conversations risk resembling one-man shows where everyone wants to have the last word (spoiler: no one will). Misunderstandings? They'll be theatrical, with violins and all the fanfare! Leo is the sign of "me, I", and with Mercury going backwards, it creates an explosive cocktail where everyone wants to be the star of their own show.
🎭 Words flying left and right
You risk speaking before thinking, with grandiloquence as a bonus. Passionate declarations like "It's over between us!" or "I quit!" might come out faster than expected. Result? Lots of "I didn't mean that!" and delicate damage control sessions. Social media? Minefield! A post written in the heat of the moment could do serious damage.
🎨 Your creative projects make a comeback
This is THE moment to dust off that novel/painting/song/project you abandoned. Mercury retrograde loves to bring back what was left aside, and in Leo, it highlights your hidden talents. However, don't launch anything new! New creations risk not having the desired effect. Polish, rework, perfect what already exists.
🎢 Self-confidence on a roller coaster
One day you're Beyoncé, the next you doubt anyone could love you. Normal, Mercury is playing with your nerves. It's like your mirror changes Instagram filters every 5 minutes. This period invites you to question: what really makes you shine? Watch out for impulse purchases to boost ego (no, you don't need that €300 sequined jacket).
👶 Children and leisure become... intense
Children will be even more creative in their mischief. Expect "Mommy, I drew on the wall to make it pretty!" Fun activities can turn sour: the Monopoly game ends in family war, yoga class becomes a mental contortion class. Even your hobbies could play tricks on you (spilled paint, computer crashing mid-game).
💔 Romances are under high tension
Established couples risk replaying old scenes ("Remember when you forgot my birthday in 2015?"). New encounters? Be wary! That hottie met on Tinder could well be one of your exes. Love declarations are double-edged: too theatrical to be sincere or misunderstood.
💫 Your survival missions (absolutely must check!):
|
In short, Mercury retrograde in Leo is actually a disguised masterclass: it teaches you the art of shining with authenticity, not just with glitter. Take advantage to polish your creations, reconnect with old friends (the good ones, not the toxic ones), and above all, don't take anything too seriously.
After all, with this Leo influence we have the right to make mistakes (we just do it with more panache)! And remember: on August 11, Mercury goes direct again and you can finally launch your projects, sign your contracts and declare your flame without risking cosmic bugs. Until then, breathe, be patient, and enjoy the show! 😉🎪
