Vacation
Tips Suggestions on how and where to enjoy your
precious time off.
Leo (July 23 - August 22) Your Road to Wealth
It can be hard to save money when you
have champagne taste but not always the paycheck to match
it! Leos love to get the best of whatever they buy,
and feel miserable if they have to settle for second best.
"It's no way to run a palace!" you say despondently. You do
have very high expectations of life -- but it has been said
people with little or no expectations of life never get very
far. Expecting to be poverty-stricken becomes a self-fulfilling
prophecy. So Leo, don't let anyone hassle you about wanting
your life to be grand! Just be sure you are willing to put
in the elbow grease to generate the income you feel you deserve.
Leo is also a very generous sign.
If you have children, you will find that you enjoy providing
for their every need and fulfilling their every desire. Yet
you don't have to spoil your family and friends by spending
high sums on them. They will love you just as much without
those frequent presents and dinners out!
Leos love to be respected and admired, whether
for their achievements in life or their superb level of taste
-- either of which are likely to be substantial. Enjoy
yourself if you can afford it, Leo, and save up for special
treats if you can't. Just don't spend every cent,
because you could have a rainy day someday. Finally, while
fire-sign Leo is not known
for being the most realistic sign, it is one blessed with
great vision and creativity -- use it, dear Leo!
Hint: Leos can be very
proud and will rarely admit they're out of money, even to
their closest loved ones. Because of this, Leos often refuse
to accept offers of cash if they are struggling, lest they
reveal the truth of their financial condition. Leo, this is
nuts. Take the loan if it means buying groceries and paying
your rent. Keeping up appearances can be silly, yet
this very issue could get you into hot water more often than
you'd like to admit!
Your Financial Outlook for the
Year 2000 and Beyond
The combined effect of both Jupiter
(planet of luck and fortune) and Saturn
(planet of hard work and patience) in your 10th
sector of honors, prestige and fame suggests you are on
your way up the ladder of success -- assuming you have done
everything right. This trend indicates that heavy responsibility
is being heaped on you now, but you won't have to wait long
to be rewarded for your labors. One of your best periods
for career growth will span from February to June 2000, and
hopefully your earnings will rise with your reputation.
You will still have to please the "doubting Thomas" of your
company, industry or community after June 2000, but with Leo's
innate charm, this is something you will certainly be able
to accomplish.
Your biggest payoff comes just
shortly after Saturn leaves your 10th sector on October 31,
2000. Expect your professional life to be especially
sweet shortly thereafter. Jupiter, the bearer of luck and
financial expansion, will enter Leo in August 2002 and stay
until August 2003.
Circle August 2003 on your calendar in red,
for this is the period when Jupiter will move into your sector
of earned income. This is your best time for earning money
ever! Money will rain down on you by the bucketful,
so be ready! Jupiter will remain in this sector until
September 2004. These two sparkling periods combine to make
mid-2002 to mid-2004 a highly favorable time for you. By the
time the aspects have passed, you will have substantially
increased your financial security. Begin working on your career
now so you can maximize this success!
Uranus
(planet of surprises) and Neptune
(planet of both inspiration and also confusion) continue their
long transit of your 7th sector,
indicating your romantic, marital or business partnerships
will continue to be your area of greatest instability. Uranus
won't leave until December 2003, and Neptune won't leave your
marriage sector until February 2012. Because Uranus rules
the elements in your life that bring surprise developments,
and Neptune rules all things that are both confusing and inspirational,
your relationships seem to be having a strong influence
over your financial picture. A relationship could
either cost you a bundle or bring you one! Choose your alliances
with care. If you are getting married, a prenuptial agreement
is probably a good idea, and a similar type of contract would
be helpful in all your business ventures.
Pluto's
position in your 5th sector
of creativity shows your ability to make an innovative contribution
to the world through the power of your imagination. Called
the planet of transformation and rejuvenation, Pluto has the
ability to change your life with just a little focused effort
on your part. Most Leos are creative or artistic,
and Pluto's transit of your 5th sector suggests you could
turn a special interest or hobby into a solid moneymaking
venture.
