The alignment of the planets and where they rest within our astrological wheel is constantly changing. Shifts, transits, conjunctions, all of these movements have great influence over our lives as a community of people, and can dictate what themes we should expect to confront during a give time.

That means some days are more charged with a certain energy than others, making those days ones we should all pay attention to. Upcoming on August 13th, Venus will be in cazimi with the sun (a cazimi is when a planet is so close to a conjunction with the sun that they're "in the heart" of it), amplifying its power over the realms of relationships and intimacy, both with others and with yourself. Seeing as this will also be taking place during Leo season, it might just be the most romantically charged day of the year.

It will be so powerful that every sign will be affected differently, and here's how your sign can best prepare.

Though August 13th is a romantically charged day, the benefits many people will see aren't directly related to love. Instead, they're about becoming more confident with the self, so that love can be let in easier in the future. By letting go of the binds and barriers that hold you, you open your heart to more types of love, more opportunities for it. It's better to be prepared now that to need to catch up after you've met someone who's captured your heart.

So take this as permission to finally spend some time on yourself. This moment is for you and you alone, it's for your confidence and your wellbeing, seize it and watch the amazing person you become!
