You'll feel like you can be yourself again when Mercury enters Leo. No more handling people with kid gloves or walking on eggshells. You can say what you mean and mean what you say. However, candor swings both ways. If you're free to speak your mind then others can too. It sounds good in theory until you have to sit through mind-numbing lectures, self-congratulatory praise, and staccato monologues where you can't get a word in edgewise. In fact renewing that vow of silence you took when Mercury was in Cancer might not be a bad idea. Mercury is in Leo from August 9th to 25th.
