August

August brings heavy rains, but religion and patriotism endure it all to celebrate festivals. Some festivals are designed to break the monotony of grey clouds with colour. Being a Leo, I’ve grown to believe that August brings positive change, though every August of my life does not testify to this. This year's Mercury retrograde dampened … Continue reading August
