Leo Weekly Horoscope

Professional matters are calling your name on the 5th, Leo, as the skies host a Half Moon in Taurus and your 10th House of Career Goals and Ambition. This is neither a time for implementing new projects or for harvesting goals, but rather a moment to check in with yourself and see where you are on the road to your destiny. If you are hoping for more out of life then it will begin to become apparent, but if you’ve been working hard and are happy with where you are then give yourself a gold star.

The first planetary shift of the week happens on the 6th when romantic Venus moves on from Virgo and your 2nd House of Earned Income and slips into sociable Libra and your vocal 3rd House of Local Community and Communications, where she’ll be operating for the next four weeks. During this heart-warming transit, you can express yourself without reservation, and other people will be more willing to open up after the mercurial last few months. Couples can enjoy more nights out on the town together, while singles will have better luck mingling and meeting new people to increase your options, so get out and circulate regardless of your situation because you’re sure to enjoy yourself, one way or another. You can also uncover new financial opportunities by networking, so there are lots of ways to make use of Venus’s bounty here.

The 6th also includes an important and pivotal angle that could set you off on a new trajectory. The Sun in your sign is trining Saturn in Aries and your 9th House of Expansion, which could force you to acknowledge the limitations or boundaries in your life. This angle is a productive one, however, so it is important to look for opportunities, especially those that might broaden your horizons, even if you need to leap over a few hurdles to reach them. Something that sounds like a lot of work could also turn out to be very rewarding, so don’t let the magnitude of the situation overwhelm you; Saturn never sends you something you can’t handle.

Of course, it won’t be all work and no play. Mercury has spent the last couple of months spinning through your sleepy 12th House of the Subconscious; whenever any planet happens to be moving through the 12th House it can be hard to get a proper hold of their powers, but this was especially difficult because Mercury was retrograde for part of its time here. Now, on the 9th, you can finally start to think clearly as the messenger planet zooms into Leo and your 1st House of Action for the next few weeks. During this time, you’ll be a lightning rod for all the gold nuggets of information circulating out in the Universe; likewise, if you’ve been chipping away at a project behind the scenes your big debut could be right on the horizon.
