Can you identify recent situations where your communication style has become more focused on fairness and harmony, potentially affecting your usual confidence and expressiveness?

The cosmic tango of Mercury in Libair squaring off with your natal Moon in Leo is quite the celestial spectacle to behold, isn't it? During this transit, you might find yourself in a mental state that's akin to a tightrope walker trying to balance scales while juggling harmony and fairness. Mercury, the cosmic messenger, waltzes through diplomatic Libra, prompting you to weigh your words like a meticulous jeweler, ensuring that each utterance could pass for a gemstone of balance and justice.

It's quite the shift, isn't it? With your Moon in Leo, you're accustomed to a fiery expressiveness that could easily light up any room like a grand chandelier. But as of late, you may have noticed an intriguing pivot in your communicative dance. Picture this: you're at a gathering or perhaps in a meeting, and instead of the usual roaring confidence, there's this gentle nudge nudging you toward ensuring everyone's voice is heard. You're more concerned about not stepping on toes than about being the life of the party. It's as if someone turned down your usual spotlight and handed you a conductor's baton to orchestrate a symphony of diverse opinions.

This transit is encouraging you to find that sweet spot between self-expression and listening, between the bold lion's roar and the harmonious cooing of doves (or rather, the diplomatic back-and-forth typical of Libra). It's a delicate balance, like trying to apply eyeliner on a bumpy bus ride. You may feel a bit like a lion trying on a pair of ballet slippers-graceful yet slightly out of your element.

Though, that this is a dance, not a duel. The square aspect does bring some tension, much like that one relative who always has something to say about your life choices. But it's precisely this tension that can spark growth, helping you add new moves to your communication repertoire. With Mercury prompting you to consider every side of the conversation, you're becoming a more well-rounded communicator, capable of turning even a debate about the best pizza topping into an exercise in poise and fairness.

So, while you may feel your roar has been softened to a purr, rest assured that this is temporary. Think of it as adding a dash of Libra's charm to your Leo bravado-it's all about expanding your expressive capabilities, not muting them. And who knows? This could be the perfect time to charm the socks off someone who's been on the fence about joining your pride. After all, a lion in ballet slippers is quite a memorable sight.
