The week of August 10 to August 16 brings a powerful cosmic alignment, with Mercury moving into Leo, Mars entering Cancer, and a Solar Eclipse in Leo coinciding with the New Moon. According to tarot expert Kerry King, this is a time for boldness—to be ourselves, claim our rights, and pursue our dreams. The tarot cards for each sign reveal the exact bold leap to take now.
Why This Week Demands Boldness
King explains that no one ever feels ready for bold leaps; they just do them. The cosmic energy supports decisive action, especially as the Solar Eclipse amplifies new beginnings.
