Leo Weekly Horoscope

This week can feel like letting out a breath you’ve been holding in for too long, Leo. We can all heave a sigh of relief on the 27th when karmic Saturn turns direct, signaling a change in the air. Saturn is in Pisces and your intense 8th House of Intimacy and Shared Resources, so his backtracking through this sector for the last couple of months might not have been easy, as it potentially created more barriers and consternation between you and the important people in your life. The good news is that now those hurdles will start to disappear, and you can move forward with a greater sense of security and transparency, knowing you’ve already tackled the elephant in the room.

Messenger Mercury has also been retrograde, most recently in Scorpio and your sensitive 4th House of Family and Foundations. On the 29th, however, Mercury wakes up from this sleepy cycle and resumes forward motion, much to your relief. Mercury retrograde in your domestic 4th House can cause confusion and chaos under your roof, and potential disagreements with a relative or roommate, but the air is lightening and the mood is brightening. The next few weeks could prove a very social and fun time at Chez Leo, making for a wonderful change, so it might be the perfect time to invite some of your favorite people over to come warm your space.

The very next day, Venus will reach out from the last degree of Scorpio and form a harmonious trine with dreamy Neptune, currently rotating through Pisces and your transformative 8th House. You might have a conversation with someone that proves very cathartic and even lucrative, or perhaps a family member comes forward to offer you a loan or other form of assistance you may well have been needing; this sector of your chart is all about the most majorly intense areas of life, be it sex, death, taxes, etc, so while the conversations might seem heavy, the positive angles between the planets mean it will be to your benefit.

However, before the 30th comes to a close, Venus will leave Scorpio and dance on into Sagittarius and your 5th House of Romance and Pleasure, giving you a wonderful chance to enjoy yourself until she moves on again on December 24th. Both couples and singles will benefit from this transit, so know you’ve got plenty to look forward to in the weeks ahead. This is also a very creative time, so don’t be afraid to let the Muse out to play, because Venus will do her part to make sure your work is well received, and possibly even worth a pretty penny. With the Sun and Mars also lighting up this ebullient sector for the near future, life could feel like one big celebration, so make the most of it!
