Mercury Retrograde ends in Leo: 4 zodiac signs can look for brighter and blessed days ahead
After weeks of celestial hiccups, mistaken communications and emotional reruns, Mercury has finished its retrograde in Leo, allowing us to see somewhat clearly and finally move forward. While this shift is likely to bring benefits for the zodiac overall, four signs, Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius, are likely to derive the greatest benefits from the planet's shift in direction, as per Parade magazine. Astrologers pointed out that the retrograde began in July, and it activated themes related to self-expression, pride, and creativity. The backward movement of the communication planet is usually linked with delays, misunderstandings, and the need to deal with unfinished business. Now, with retrograde motion finished in the fire sign of Leo, astrologers are viewing this as a green light for some movement, particularly for fixed signs.

Many people made agreements with revisiting old memories, and restitching damaged family connections or reevaluating living situations. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Undo Now that Mercury is direct, Taureans will likely feel a stronger sense of emotional security and belonging. Plans to redecorate or relocate may pick up steam, and emotional clarity may help erase confusion. Relationship peace is likely to improve, allowing Taureans to nourish themselves and their loved ones with an even bigger heart. Leo: Getting Back in the Game Leos have borne the brunt of Mercury's backward path since it fell in their sign. For some, it meant re-examining relationships from the past or pondering their personal identity. For all, there has been an opportunity to revise stories and face doubts. The tide has turned in their favor now. The weeks ahead could present better opportunities for communication, acceptance of ideas, and new endeavors. Leos are encouraged to express themselves honestly, flaunt their creativity, and be upfront about who they are. The time could bring the reopening of doors that may have seemed solidly shut, with individual charm serving as a predisposition for new opportunities. Live Events Scorpio: Career Clarity and Professional Executions In the professional realm, Scorpios have lived through delays, shifting priorities, unmet goals, and maybe miscues from colleagues or bosses. The retrograde period has been to push the Scorpios to reevaluate their ambitions and how the world sees them. It seems that the tide is turning, with Mercury's new direction and everything related to occupations and work will change tremendously for the next while. All sorts of promotions, leadership opportunities, or much-deserved acclaim may emerge. Scorpios are being invited to set their agenda in work contexts and to raise their voice. The renewed energy may well serve for burgeoning new projects or negotiating new employment conditions. Aquarius: Relationship Development & Improved Communication Aquarians have likely experienced stress in relationships during the retrograde, especially in relationships that require mutual compromise and collaboration. Old relationship patterns may have come back up for re-evaluation and teaching opportunities around establishing boundaries and being emotionally straightforward. Mercury is now moving direct,which will help with fruitful conversations and healthier relationship dynamics. New relationships may develop for some, and for other people Sagittarians may find that important people may come back into their lives. The importance of mutual respect is evident in all relationships whether they are love relationships, friendships or business relationships, and in offering the chance for expansion or development, it should be easier for the Aquarius native to attract partners that align with those values. Fixed Signs Come Into Action The 4 signs that will feel this shift the most are Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius. The fixed quality in astrology aligns mainly with persistence, perseverance, determination, and seeing a project through to its completion. The end of the retrograde allows fixed signs to act on those traits and initiate forward movement in the projects. For the rest of the signs, this change should still provide some relief, most significantly for everything that has felt stuck or mucky since early July. You should also feel the effects in communication errors dwindling, including any travel plans getting back on track, and the ability to initiate creative projects without having to recycle back all the time. Astrologers also remind you that although the ending of a Mercury retrograde can feel like a sudden freedom, the so-called "shadow period" during which Mercury retraces the path it took on the most recent trip, lasts a short while. As a result, some matters may still need adjustments before gaining complete momentum. FAQs When did Mercury retrograde in Leo take place? The retrograde began in July 2025 and ended recently, marking the end of weeks of communication hiccups, delays, and emotional reruns. What does Mercury retrograde typically affect? Astrologers link Mercury retrograde to misunderstandings, schedule changes, technology glitches, and the need to revisit unfinished business.

MTR safari vehicles to be converted into battery powered ones
Supriya Sahu and others at the Nilgiris Kuttawddy Centre UDHAGAMANDALAM: The forest department is taking an initiative to convert the safari vehicles in the Mudumalai Tiger Reserve (MTR) in the Nilgiris to battery powered ones. This initiative would be extended to other forest areas across the state, said additional chief secretary of environment, climate change and forests Supriya Sahu on Monday. Sahu was speaking at the inaugural lecture series organized by the Nilgiris Kuttawddy Centre in Ooty. She emphasized the importance of the govt's role in addressing climate change, stating that it should be institutionalized. She said, 'The Nilgiris has set an example not only for Tamil Nadu but for the entire country in terms of conservation. It has always looked at the bigger picture, starting with the plastic ban 25 years ago and now becoming a carbon-neutral district.' The event also highlighted how Nilgiris entered the Guinness Book of World Records by planting the maximum number of trees in a specific timeframe back in 2001. This achievement is credited to the collaboration between the district administration and the public. Dr Tarun Chhabra, founder of the Nilgiris Kuttawddy Centre, said, 'The centre was started with a focus on public service and is currently involved in scripting the Toda language using Tamil scripts, a project funded by the government of Tamil Nadu. This initiative includes the revitalisation of Toda culture and language and aims at documenting them.' District collector Lakshmi Bhavya Tanneeru was among those who attended the event.
