Hello, beautiful soul and welcome back to Back to Here with Sarita, the new Manifesting Paradigm podcast.
I'm your host, Sarita.
And I just wanted to give a little disclaimer before we jump into the episode.
sound a little stuffy. I'm not sure if it is allergies. I'm here in New Orleans, Louisiana,
it's been raining aggressively
last week that I've been here.
Or it could be that I'm getting a little bit under the weather. I'm not sure what it is.
So please pardon me in advance that my voice sounds a little stuffy,
I have a lot of amazing information I wanna share with you today about the energy we are in, and that is a Leo season.
So in this episode, we will be covering my second favorite fire sign, which is all things Leo and the Leo energy
that is happening right now.
So I personally fell in love with all things Leo when I discovered my North node is in Leo about 18 years
if you are a Leo or you know a Leo, you probably are well aware
this archetype of Leo is
It is ruled by the sun
and in its highest form is very
centered and heart led.
Leo is a fire
and also a fix sign.
Leo rules the fifth house, which is all about bold self-expression,
inner child,
romantic energy, love affairs,
and it governs things like hobbies,
entertainment,
and...
creative pursuits.
It's about courage and the heart.
And right now we are actually walking through a very fiery and potent and emotional moment in the skies.
Leo Season is here and wow, she came
very boldly. She did not come in very quietly.
So if you've been feeling creatively charged but also emotionally stirred,
and if you're feeling like you're rethinking your goals and just looking at your level of confidence and even maybe your identity,
you are, let
reconfirm with you and reassure you, that you are exactly where you're meant to be because this is happening
everybody.
So really the energy is right now where the planets are aligned cosmically. We are in this position where we are all reclaiming our personal power. We're honoring our inner truths and integrating parts of us that feel like
they've been unseen.
So really look at this timeframe as a rebirthing portal.
this is about alignment.
in this very short episode, I'm going to walk you through three simple themes that are currently happening in our cosmic energy right now. And you can implement and work into your manifestation practices.
Okay, let's jump in.
Okay, point one, Leo season is about reclaiming the lead role in your life. This is giving hard, main character energy.
Leo is ruled by the sun. The sun is our center energy of our solar system, and it shines really bright. Everybody knows that it's there.
And Leo energy
is all about the identity
and confidence
and heart-centered expression.
It's the sign of the inner child, the performer, the energy queen.
So right now, a good question to ask yourself, main character energy, what does that look like in your
Are you living your life as the main character or are you still playing a supporting role
in your story or someone else's story?
So this season in general is inviting you to actually remember your presence in your own
Your desires are valid and your joy is very, very sacred.
In regards to manifestation, Leo energy reminds all of us, you don't magnetize what you pretend to be, right? That main character energy.
You attract what you boldly claim as your
own.
So another question to ask yourself is where am I dimming my light in order to stay and feel accepted or even safe?
So for me, I wanted to share with you, because I always love integrating my own personal growth within these podcast episodes, that Leo
energy is really reminding me how much damn power I'm giving away to time.
I've had this constant cycle
in my mind that I am powerless to time
because I have all these responsibilities of constantly moving homes because I'm completely nomadic, taking care of other people's homes, taking care of other people's pets.
putting energy into myself, meaning
the work that I do, the position that I'm working from anywhere job,
eating healthy, getting in my
morning and evening time for
And then the last thing is creativity
my manifestation business and my podcast. And I feel like I've been stretched too thin to actually put towards energy towards that.
And it's this story that I've created in myself
to stay safe
with the money that I'm currently attracting because of the work from home
job that I'm doing and then the pet sitting and house setting. And I'm choosing to stay small in my business and my podcast. And that gets to change because Leo energy now is such a perfect time to remind me that I get to be that main character energy.
Okay, my point two really coincides with the first one. Mercury retrograde in Leo
means rewriting your inner script.
As of July
Mercury, the planet of thought, communication, perception, retrograded into the sign of
know Mercury retrograde gets a really bad rap. It's when
go chaotic. Sometimes communication can be really off.
This particular mercury retrograde is a lot different. It's not something to fear.
is a different type of retrograde because it's in the sign of Leo.
Think about it as if it's a sacred pause or a realigning moment.
And because it's in Leo, this retrograde is spotlighting our self-talk. How do you communicate with yourself? Remember, it's all about the self-identity and expression.
is your internarrative and what is
talking to you about?
So if you've been questioning your direction or second guessing your dreams or the way that you communicate, just like I was sharing with you how things have been with me and my internal dialogue with
totally
This is a powerful time to ask yourself this very simple question.
What story am I telling myself about who I'm allowing myself to be?
So this is a beautiful time to revisit
inner script and revise it.
Because not only is it about the main character energy,
you are also the writer, the director, and the lead role within your story.
In manifestation terms, this is identity work at its core.
We are shifting from doing that light self-concept work and performing to full embodiment. We're going from the forcing to actually radiating.
So to share with you what's going on with me in regards to this, I sat down the other day and gave my Pisces moon a coaching session from my Aries Sun and my Aries Rising.
I noticed over the last three months since I commenced this nomadic journey, I've been really, really in my feels, which has been amazing and wonderful and fine. And also the awareness that these emotions have actually kept me stuck in old habits and behaviors that ended up being a little bit toxic, like being obsessed almost with trying to figure out certain meanings to some things that are happening within my spiritual life.
So being in awareness of that because being stuck in those emotions hasn't allowed me fully
step into being seen, AKA where my North node in Leo actually desires me to go.
And my last point is about how the sun is opposing Pluto,
shadow illumination, AKA power upgrade.
Now this one is pretty big that's happening during this Leo season.
On Friday, July 25th, the sun
in Leo was directly opposing Pluto and Aquarius.
It was like a full moon moment, but with Pluto.
Reminder, Pluto is the planet of transformation,
truth, and emotional depth.
It doesn't ask you to be surface level. In fact, it is quite literally spotlighting the shadow.
So if you've been feeling triggered, emotional,
or certain old patterns are bubbling up to the surface,
that's not a sign that you're broken.
It's a sign actually that your nervous system is trying to integrate deeper truths within your life.
This is the new manifesting
You can't manifest from avoidance. You manifest from your inner aligned
And sometimes truth is fucking messy. I know that from personal experience, being on this three month nomadic journey. Sometimes it requires us to
but also it can really set you free.
So right now,
let yourself feel,
let yourself witness, just like I was sharing, feeling the emotion, witnessing what was coming forth. Don't try to fix it.
Pluto is not about quick solutions. Pluto is the farthest planet. It is moving the slowest around the sun. It is not in a rush. It's about surrender. It's about integration. It's about deep identity, healing that's going to be transformative on a soul.
And I have to say that I felt this one the hardest on the evening of July
the Pluto and Leo
combination. I was feeling already a little bit tender because I've had a lot of time to do a lot of reflective work while I've been on this nomadic journey these last three months. And on Friday, I was watching one of my favorite summer movies called, Call Me By Your Name,
it was Floodworks for Me.
One of the last scenes of the movie, 17-year-old Elio, is sitting down with his dad and he's sharing with him what's forth from
love affair that he was just in. And his dad pointed out
that not everyone gets to experience love the way that he did.
And this really hit home for me because one of the biggest areas of my life that I've had quite some time to mull over these last three months
since I've been on this manifestation road trip, this nomadic journey, is about reflecting on my ex relationships and my ex love affairs.
I've been doing a lot of grieving over these last three months
from the possibility of things that could have worked out and didn't.
And also,
getting a little bit more grounded in myself for what it is that I do stand for and what I don't stand for in regards to attracting a new partner when it comes time for that again.
And what better time, of course, than Leo season and all the transits that are happening within Leo. Because Leo is about the heart. It's about self-identity. It's about relationships. And it's about love affairs. And it's about how you see yourself
in this whole cosmic
So as we move through this Leo portal, I want you to remember just a couple things. And I'm sharing this with you because I'm also sharing this as a reminder to myself,
