SEARCHThis is the latest installment of the Cosmos Update with Yara de la Torre: "The general vibe of this season is asking us to open up our hearts, to have courage when it comes to facing our own truths and to take this opportunity to make bold moves that support our growth and evolution."
In her work, de la Torre says she helps beauty professionals identify and conquer their limiting beliefs and blockages.
“I guide them to tap into their very own unique, natural power and unlock their full potential, leading to a more abundant and aligned personal and professional life,” says de la Torre. “It’s about making it all connect!”
It's Leo Season, and Yara de la Torre’s (@yara.delatorre) most recent Cosmos Update speaks to you fire signs, born between approximately July 23 and August 22.
The Cosmos Update, an ongoing content series, reflects de la Torre’s passion for understanding the world through the ancient belief system and cultural practice of astrology.
With over 15+ years of experience in the beauty industry, de la Torre, a dynamic salon owner, stylist, and Business Energetics Coach, has built a reputation not only for her talent but also for her resilience, bouncing back after a devastating injury in 2019 that left her paralyzed from the waist down. Today, she does hair from her wheelchair, while at the same time, she has found a unique way to guide beauty pros to harness their inner strengths, with a blend of business experience, astrology, intuition, and empathy.
With each installment of the Cosmos Updates, de la Torre encourages self-reflection and discovery, and offers insight into what each season might hold. Through this lens, astrology becomes a tool for personal development and self-awareness.
The zodiac sign of Leo is the fifth sign of the astrological zodiac and is represented by the lion. Leo is a fire sign, along with Aries and Sagittarius, and it is ruled by the sun. In astrology, Leo season is considered significant as it marks the period when the sun transits through the zodiac sign of Leo. Traditionally, Leos are known for their boldness, leadership qualities, and love for attention.
"The general vibe of this season is asking us to open up our hearts, to have courage when it comes to facing our own truths and to take this opportunity to make bold moves that support our growth and evolution," says de la Torre.
