One well-placed line from an astrologer can make all the difference in your life. We now have two editions of the Four Winds Report — one with, and one without your daily reading. You may be one of the readers who wait for years for me to offer you this — and now you can have it.

If Your Birthday is Aug. 2
(The Day of the Versatile Signature) | Leo Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
You will thrive if you find the balance between work and play. Yet that’s not divided by the usual notions of activity, such as work during the day and play at night. Rather, you find it through integrating the two concepts in everything that you do. Bring curiosity and a sense of adventure into all of your experiences and you’ll discover your true talent.
Written in the Planets
Today Mercury and Vesta join forces in Virgo to guide your thoughts and words into an act of service. There are many ways that could look, from sharing helpful ideas to rolling up your sleeves and bringing some worthy endeavor to its next stage. Yet how can you know when you might be crossing the line from service into unhealthy self-sacrifice? Mercury and Vesta are still opposite Nessus in Pisces. Pay attention to any feelings of guilt, or the sensation that you’ve been down this road before and it has hurt you. Any act of service worthy of your devotion should simultaneously fill your well (though it’s up to you to know your limits and tend your basic needs). It will never ask you to snuff the inner fire that keeps your soul energized. That’s someone else’s voice.
“Ah Eric — just listened to your reading. I was moved to tears by your closing words. Your passion, deep care and love always shine through; and you have the gift of all great teachers, of making one feel that one is being personally addressed, respected and taken care of.”
— Liz Glanville

— Barbara Peaslee, on a previous Leo reading
