The latter.
Not only that, there are a few days next month when four of the five the personal planets are in Leo -- Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars. That's unusual. (Lord help us!!) August 11 - 16. The Weasel's b'day falls in that span -- putting that in his Solar Return -- which means next year he'll be even more insufferable. (And proud of it.)
Seriously though. Leos are really in for a treat over the next month and a half. With a trine to Jupiter in Sagittarius. (The black line angle.) Despite current appearances, life is about to change in some very good ways in the Leo / Sagittarius sectors for all of us. Any Aries, Leo, Sagittarius, Libra placements that fall in this range will prosper (really well!)
Geminis will likely wind up overwhelmed with too much going on to comfortably manage -- even though much of it is fun and rewarding. Aquarius will likely get into power struggles, questions of "dominance" with others ... centering on pride and ego issues. (Gee, I wonder where that comes from.)
Hang onto your hat. The Winds of Change are about to arrive.
Things will happen quickly (perhaps because you're impatient and acting on impulse -- the red line to Uranus). Some of what happens will in retrospect seem "fated" (The purple lines that form a "Y" with those four planets in Leo.)
Too much to explain in a comment. If you're interested I'll do a post on it.
Did you see the Tarot readings for this week?
I think you're about to take your life back. At least you'll be offered the chance.
