As I consider some of the people whom I\u2019ve encountered over the years, that have provided excellent leadership, I realize that it is through modeling the very behavior they would hope to see in others that they have inspired so many to reach towards something greater. It\u2019s about walking the talk. This is worth considering while communication planet Mercury is conjoined with leadership planet Mars in Sagittarius, which embodies the energy of the Teacher. (I am referring not only to academic teachers, for we are all teachers to each other.) The problem (if you choose to see this as a problem) is that Mercury is in the sign of his detriment while in Sagittarius. This can be reflected in communication that\u2019s big on ideas but hollow on stuffing. There\u2019s the potential for do as I say, not as I do<\/em>. And so, as Mercury comes close to wrapping up his tour of Sagittarius, part of the lesson involves leading by example. Mercury and Mars team up as if to say: Let your actions be your voice. Hence the axiom that actions speak louder than words. <\/p>\n

The Cosmos has provided a rather convivial backdrop in which to consciously Be (Mars) the Word (Mercury) you speak. Venus (grace and harmony) aligns in a friendly and proactive vibe with Mercury, each of whom flows effortlessly with Chiron (healing and mentorship). As it is, Venus is hovering on the final degree of her own sign Libra, so there\u2019s some urgency to mastering the delicate art of social relations in general. And Saturn\u2019s long-term stay in Libra really helps drive the point home. <\/p>\n

A possible wrinkle in this day arrives courtesy of the Moon in Virgo\u2019s opposition to Jupiter and Uranus retrograde in Pisces, while Mercury and Mars square these two giants. In a nutshell, the potential is there to get all verbose and preachy. But what\u2019s also true is that Moon in Virgo reflects the soul\u2019s need to be of sacred service to others. If you come from this place, and be aware of when to step back and let the Light of Sun in Sagittarius guide your choices, this day offers a lovely gift.<\/p>\n
