Alright cosmic voyagers, buckle up! It's time to navigate the celestial seas of the cosmos, a.k.a. your weekly horoscope. But don't worry, I'll be your Obi-Wan in this galaxy far, far away...

First off, let's talk about Mercury and Venus hanging out in Leo, like a couple of galactic party animals. You may find yourself drawn to all things shiny, extravagant, and...hair-related?
