Written by Mia Astrology

This week carries a push-and-pull between slowing down for wisdom and speeding up for breakthroughs. With Venus still retrograde in fiery Leo, relationships and finances are under review. Meanwhile, a Pisces Full Moon illuminates deep truths midweek, and lingering meteor showers keep sprinkling their cosmic poetry across the night sky.
