As we have mentioned, health looks good this year and much improved during last year. Long-term plans are either in harmonious aspect to you or leaving you alone. (Saturn, your health planet, will retrograde back into Scorpio for a few months this year – from June 15 to September 18 –, but this is no longer a meaningful transit, just a flirtation. Most of you won’t feel this – only those of you born very late in the sign of Leo, from August 19 to August 22.
Enjoyable though your health is, you can take steps to make it even better. Pay heed to the following vulnerable areas in your chart: the heart; the colon, bladder and sexual organs; the spine, knees, teeth, bones, skin and the overall skeletal alignment; and the liver and thighs. The reflex points are highlighted in the chart.
The heart is still important for a Leo. Eat heart-healthy foods and avoid worry and anxiety, the two emotions that stress the heart. In addition, the colon, bladder and sexual organs have become prominent over the years. Odd colonic irrigation might be a good idea as the colon has to be kept clean. Safe sex and sexual moderation are also critical these days. In general, you benefit from detox regimes.
The spine, knees, teeth, bones, skin and skeletal alignment are other areas always eminent for Leo, and this year is no different. Regular back and knee massage are beneficial, as are regular visits to a chiropractor or osteopath. Yoga, Pilates, the Alexander Technique and Feldenkrais are excellent therapies for the spine. Give the knees more support when exercising and make sure you’re getting enough calcium and vitamin K. If you’re out in the sun use a good sun screen.
Liver and thighs have become conspicuous since December of last year and will remain so for the next two years. Regular thigh massage will be wonderful. It will be a good idea to do liver detoxes and there are numerous herbal ways to do this. Liver action seems more sluggish than usual these days.
Keeping these areas healthy and fit will prevent most problems from happening. For health problems would most likely begin in the above areas.
For the past two years, sound emotional health has been very prominent, and this year as well for a few months, from June 15 to September 18. Avoid depression. Do your best to administer moods and keep them constructive. Through meditation and other spiritual techniques, moods can be mastered and undertook to serve you.
You are one of the most creative signs in the zodiac, and it is extremely important that you keep the creative juices flowing. Repression can be a root cause of health problems. It is still pleasant for you to have some ingenious kind of hobby – something you do for the sheer joy of it. This year it is more critical than usual.
Your health planet has been in Scorpio for some years now (and will be there again for a few months this year), while Pluto is in your 6th house of health. Many of you had surgical procedures during the past two years, and surgery could happen this year as well. You are inclined to this. Always get second opinions and investigate whether detaining the body will do the same job. (It often does, but it does take longer.)
Your weight needs watching this year – especially until August 11 – although diet is less of an issue than it has launched in the past two years. It will become acute again – briefly – from June 15 to September 18.
