Hello and welcome to Shining Bull. Today, as my Guru the great benefic and all knowing Jupiter goes direct in Mars’ sign of Scorpio, it’s the right moment for me, Maya to put out these horoscopes for the period during which Mars will be in Leo. I bow before Guru with complete selflessness, and I thank Guru for beginning direct motion and for the insight brought by Guru’s vakri motion.
Before beginning, please make sure that you know both your vedic rising sign and moon sign, also called Lagna and Rashi signs respectively. You can find your vedic chart via many online sites, and you should have your birth date, birth time and birth place at hand to input into the online chart generator that you choose. The important thing is that the site specifies that the chart is a vedic astrological chart.
Your vedic astrology rising and moon signs will likely be different from your non-vedic astrology signs, so definitely observe yourself reacting to that and know that You are not that which is reacting to your vedic signs being different from the signs that you thought you were. You are what is observing that which is reacting.
When you read my horoscopes to you, understand that the predictions for your rising or Lagna sign will have physical manifestations on this beautiful plane which is often referred to as the real world, whereas your moon or Rashi sign will manifest in the way that you experience this transit of Mars in Leo via your emotional body. Both are important and I recommend reading both.
Please also understand that any vedic astrology horoscope is not what makes vedic astrology such a gem among human scientific systems. The most valuable insight that this system, called Jyotish, offers is obtained when a vedic astrologer advises you regarding your own personal queries based on your own natal chart or even on a chart that we cast of a specific moment of time related to your query. This is because when we look at your chart, we are seeing an endless number of factors which are unique to you as an individual soul in human form. Nonetheless, I write this with the wish that it will be helpful to you during this powerful transit of Mars in Leo. Welcome again and enjoy!

ARIES MESHA What you create, what you play with and learn are what will ground you, make you stronger and make you soar. But even while it seems like your whole being is engaged with this fruitful 5th House part of life, can your purpose be to increase and enjoy your resources and to strengthen your relationship with your partners? The kind of day-to-day chit-chat, unplanned commutes and small matters that have recently tried to mess up the track you’re on, are now smoothing out. You are now unbounded to frolic, to make and to get immersed in the knowledge you’re after, and doing just that will be what brings you the stability you have been trying to sort out for yourself. So breathe out and get back on the freeway. As for playing with money, your losses are being buffered during this transit, so you can risk more, but making sure that you have more than enough liquidity on hand will do wonders for your peace of mind and for your most important relationships. From August 11 — August 30, know that being confident in yourself and your actions now will be what brings you your greatest teacher beginning in November when Jupiter enters your 9th House. Now is the time to look to yourself and to honor that everything you are capable of now is the result of centuries and millennia of ancestors. One of the greatest gifts of being grounded in yourself is the sense of well-being that you can transmit to your significant other and it’s important. From August 30 — September 20, remind yourself again to enjoy what you have. What is the most pleasurable interplay you can find between your focused action and opening yourself to your partner’s physical and emotional desires while manifesting your resources into material enjoyment and rest? From September 20 — September 25, as Mercury is already in their own sign of Virgo, no longer combust yet brightened by the Sun who is also there, trust your instinct on contractual commitments, patenting or copyrighting your work and so on, but make sure your partner isn’t losing sleep because of it.
TAURUS VRISHABHA Your power to cultivate stability and a sense of well-being will be what protects your relationship with your partners in both romance and business during this transit. Your recent efforts to communicate with your partners and regarding foreign and unfamiliar places both physical and conceptual have been blocked, and recently your resources may have even felt compromised. Realize now that creating and maintaining your home, whether that means your physical dwelling or the place where the inner you dwells and invites others in, will alchemize the unknown into warmth and will have a positive impact on your partnerships. That’s the clear mission right now, and during this transit your larger community of friends may be demoted because of it. But with all of this in front of you, can you make a purpose out of your own self-care and connecting to and increasing pleasure in your daily work? Can those two things be the greatest end result of what you’re working on right now in love and in business? Navigate your partners’ interests regarding your shared community of friends, etc. to make sure that they are able to interact freely while you give yourself as wide a space as you need. From August 11 — August 30, come to an understanding of what makes you and your partners feel most grounded even during the unexpected. How can you make a haven now that will be a place of replenishment to go back to in the future? From August 30 — September 20, see how you can give into rest. Can you find a way to find and revel in rest during the day-to-day? Can you transmutate battle into pleasurable expansion? From September 20 — September 25, if there is a new commitment you feel the need to make to your partner or regarding foreign lands, then make them, but if that commitment is related to education, then wait until October 5 onward once Venus is in Libra to do so.
GEMINI MITHUNA You have recently been introduced to an unclearness related to your own self. What is it? And what is the difference between you and your intellectual resources? Your knack for communicating while learning from others is now demanded of you in a big way. Can you be of service to others by synthesizing and sharing the knowledge that you have gained from your community of friends and from your partners both past and present? Experiment with including these different knowledge sources in your narratives while honoring where they have come from and being open to receiving insight from others even while your own voice is sought after by them! Understand that career may take a blow during this transit if you are not mindful of your career interests while going about the daily efforts and communications that you make. In fact, if you can take a holiday now from work, this might be an ideal period in which to do so! In any case, connect with the possibility of your current efforts serving the purpose and intention of being able to enjoy, relax and luxuriate in what you create and in what you have created even while having been on the most unfamiliar of terrains. That includes enjoying and improving the enjoyment of the time you spend with your own children if you have children. From August 11 — August 30, try to take strength and wisdom from your significant other or your business partner and fuse it with your own in a way that makes you more impactful in everything that you do. From August 30 — September 20, remember to nest in with your children and to recall and honor how far you have traveled. This is the real reward for any efforts you make. From September 20 — September 25, commitments can be made to your mother or regarding property like real-estate and vehicles, but keep your children’s best interest in mind while doing so.
CANCER KARKA The time is now ripe to make important and fortuitous moves related to your money and your resources; career moves that will improve your earnings and new creations too, of all kinds. Recently your self-confidence regarding these items of business has felt doused, and you may have experienced a brief backfiring of previous efforts made. But now life is flowing again. During this transit you may feel done with making things right that are always making work, or with listening to advice from those who society says you’re supposed to look up to. So create space for yourself to rest. Even though this transit is one to capitalize on, try to allot off-call time to enjoy time with your mother and with your friends or just to enjoy your living space and the comfort it brings. Is it possible to envision how money made can benefit your enjoyment of these aspects of life? From August 11 — August 30, channel the work that you’re doing now on your career, resources and (pro?)creation into harnessing stability for yourself and your partner. From August 30 — September 20, the best way to enjoy your resources while you’re increasing them is to celebrate your mother and your friends or even by giving some extra love to your house. From September 20 — September 25, you may make plans regarding a short trip or a younger sibling and that’s great, but don’t stress out your mom or your friends about it.
LEO SIMHA Your Yogakaraka Mars is on your ascendant and with your ascendant lord the Sun there alongside. Perhaps, what with your 5th and 8th House Lord Jupiter in your 4th House and Saturn with Ketu in your 5th House, you have been considering buying property as a way of being smart regarding investment gains. In the case of foreign property, your efforts were likely recently hampered. Now is finally a good time to make that decision if you have been looking to do so. At the same time, it’s also a good time to play the market as long as you can do so in a way that doesn’t cause you or your partner unnecessary stress. Establishing stability and direction can keep you in the position to cast a nurturing light on what makes your partner feel most safe and on your younger siblings as well for their own growth. From August 11 — August 30, see your ancestors in your children or in your future children, and in everything you create. Let the knowledge of those roots strengthen you right now. From August 30 — September 20, while relaxing among family, especially your in-laws and younger siblings, appreciate your ability to make them glow and enjoy the light they reflect. From September 20 — September 25, if you’re going to tie up money right now then do it, just den in with everyone who may feel bothered and warm them up first.
VIRGO KANYA Maybe you are looking to plan an escape. Now you can, but take care of how you communicate to your partner and to your mother about it and don’t let your partner’s well-being be compromised, unless of course this escape is meant to be a solo one. The gains from work that might have been held up are now coming in, or maybe it’s an elder sibling or friend who you were not sure about being on board. You can relax because things are all set again. There may be some stress related to money, resources and the financing of your trip. So while you’re making your plans, make them for an escape that will contain peace of mind with which to ponder prospects of increasing your resources when you get back. And minimize money-talk with those who will be sharing your getaway. From August 11 — August 30, the theme of work and play has related itself with the themes of either your own mother or your fixed assets beginning when Saturn got into your 4th House of Sagittarius, also called Dhanu in the vedic system, that exact date being October 26, 2017. Now, connect with your ancestors through your feet and understand that through your feet you can be anywhere and with their blessings at the same time. They are something which you already have. From August 30 — September 20, relax about your plans, enjoy your money and dream about the path you are going to travel. Even while you’re making those escape plans that will stabilize things a little bit related to communications, younger siblings, short trips and any general efforts that tend to go hand in hand with surprises. From September 20 — September 25, it seems you’re into committing yourself to something and that’s great; but if you wait until Mars enters your ascendant September 25 onward, that may be a better choice.
LIBRA TULA You want and are ready and able for your larger community of friends or contacts to generate a situation that is beneficial for your own liquidity as well as for your relationship with your partners both romantic and business. Recently, being able to get down to business was thwarted and you may have even been ticked off by a teacher trying to put you out of what is your place. Now you know again that you are where you belong and you are in the position to bring to the table your capacity to increase benefits for yourself by increasing benefits for your different communities via merging them into each other. But don’t let all this constructive activity get you away from yourself and your capacity to dive deep into the work. You need to keep connecting with yourself and your own insight while creating prosperity introducing these different groups of people who are not you but to whom you belong. From August 11 — August 30, the efforts you have been making toward your house and your investment patterns is connected via Ketu to the gifts of your ancestors that you have to offer others who need them. Keep open and understand. It requires you keeping with you while assisting others find their way. From August 30 — September 20, appreciate your own knowledge and capacity. Knowing that you know what you know and being fully you and fully able to go inward into your own being are experiences that your resources-in-the-making will grant you. From September 20 — September 25, you may be about to make a commitment regarding getting away into isolation or to a foreign place. Now is an opportune time to print those reservations.
SCORPIO VRISCHIK Doing your work is going to make you stronger and defeat your enemies at the same time, and deep down you know it even if the details are blurred. Your Ascendant Lord Mars is now in your 10th House giving your all in there and going with it will get you a lot. The path that was recently difficult to find clarity on due to enemies and daily battles now offers a solution in plain sight. Casual romances will be discarded by Mars at this time, and you should trust Mars on that front. At the same time, let yourself wonder about what makes sex with a long-term partner much better. With Jupiter aspecting your 7th House, have you been feeling like it’s time? With Venus combust has the prospect of such made you feel more protective of your ability to hide without anything hampering you being able to isolate yourself when you want to? Maybe all of this work on yourself and your invincibility via the work you’re doing on your career is all so that you can enjoy the stillness required in order to fully see your partners. Mars may be closing off romantic flings, but open to Jupiter and to taking your time? From August 11 — August 30, know that the way you are meant to make your money is a gift from the pitris or ancestors. Your calling is them calling and as this work strengthens you, honor your depths. From August 30 — September 20, relax into partnerships and relax into your aloneness; keep working but keep opening. From September 20 — September 25, you may be ready to make a commitment or an investment decision based on your intuition of forthcoming monetary gains. It’s true that Jupiter moves into your 2nd House in November, but don’t forget that Saturn will remain there until January 24, 2020. So if you know you should invest or your betting on future gains, do so with all of the responsibility and modesty that Saturn will require in order to give Jupiter clearance to make your money expand once in your 2nd House starting in November, where Jupiter will be only until end of March.
SAGGITARIUS DHANU You know where you are going, and you are going there. Your release into the unknown earns you wisdom and that’s something only you, Sagittarius can know. You have found the path or the source of what is to be your truth and now is the time to take it. The recent period of Mars in Cancer had you going too deep to go forward, but that’s over now! When Mercury retrograded into your 7th House where Rahu is, you may have wondered if you even know the person you’re with. Taking your path now is right, but set an end purpose of being able to enjoy your wealth freely. Very importantly, maintain open communication with your mother during this time and try to be sensitive. From August 11 — August 30, know that where you go in an outward direction will take you into yourself until your source. When Jupiter enters into your Ascendant in November, the cosmic river within you is going to expand. Just FYI. From August 30 — September 20, know that your resources are yours to put toward your travel along this path. Release into them too, and the freedom that they are. Give good riddance to hindrances to you doing so. From September 20 — September 25, you may be ready to take a career path, and it is an auspicious moment to do so for you. If people aren’t happy for you then you need to protect yourself from them, now more than ever. Don’t share good news with people who aren’t happy for you, and then ask yourself whether you need that weight in your life. Additionally make sure that the career move is not one that will close doors on your creative force. And congratulations!
CAPRICORN MAKARA Saturn in your 12th House has been teaching you about the nature of your losses their relationship to the risks you take. Ketu has been offering you the possibility to recognize your eternal nature which is separate from your effort and your release. Now, as Jupiter transits forward again through your 11th House of gains, Mars transits your 8th House of unexplored depths while the Sun casts light upon their surface. Mars is protecting your gains and does not want you to take unnecessary risks at this juncture.Recently you may have been having some relationship issues and you may have wondered if your partner is a friend or a foe. Hopefully by August 26, as space clears in your 7th House of partnerships, everything will clear up.Your deep dive right now regards questions of both a secure sense of well-being such as that brought by a mother or by a place to call your own, as well as a search for positive gains. What you find can enhance being able to quest comfortably in educational and career, so keep that in mind as a purpose. From August 11 — August 30, know that your time in the deep does not exist without the capacity to touch ground. Recognize the difference between your center and the treasure and know that the center is the treasure that makes the one you’re seeking beautiful. From August 30 — September 20, reconnect with and find comfort in your professional and playful interests. Know that they are there and that they provide substance during your time down under. From September 20 — September 25, you may be ready to take a path. Come up and go forward.
AQUARIUS KUMBHA Mars has left your 6th House of daily battles and is now traveling within a nice set-up in Leo, your 7th House of partnerships. You want to activate a partnership regarding the capacity that you bear and the efforts you make. Now you can do so without what was backing things up. The Sun will recognize your initiative and give it light now. But your sense of home and a long-distance path that waits to be walked are what are waiting behind what you are trying get a pass on. You know that’s what this is about. Recently you felt like your creation became your battle, but that is no longer the case. From August 11 — August 30, honor where both of you have come from and what you have gained. From August 30 — September 20, appreciate the home you have created and the path you are walking while you show what you have to offer. From September 20 — September 25, you are ready to make a decision about revealing your depths. Decide because your efforts are about to take you into the sunlight in Virgo, and your tongue and inner resources will loosen up beginning September 25 when Mars enters Virgo too.
PISCES MEENA You are entering a battle regarding your resources and knowledge that you seek. While Mars was in Cancer you were not able to manifest your capacity. Now with Mars in Leo aspecting a Jupiter direct in your 9th House, you can do so. The knowledge is ready for you to seek it, too, so the fight is worth fighting. You will feel like you are losing yourself during this transit. Your ability to go deep into yourself in order to find liberation is your greatest gift, so hang onto that. From August 11 — August 30, know that being able to get clear on your Dharma as you have been with Saturn in your 10th House means that you have attained the maturity necessary to do so and let that imbue you with confidence. From August 30 — September 20, allow yourself time to dive inward when not dueling in the necessary. From September 20 — September 25, you may want to shake hands and seal a deal. Get clear on your own finances and resources and then if you’re sure, go for it.
