Leo Weekly Horoscope

You can make major moves at work this week, Leo, but there will also be some very exciting opportunities for socializing and enjoying yourself to the best of your ability, so there is indeed the opportunity to experience a little bit of everything in the days ahead. The professional energy gets majorly underlined on the 16th when the New Moon in Taurus illuminates the heavens and your 10th House of Career and Long-Term Goals, lighting a fire under your butt that can push you onward and upward to new and exciting heights. This lunation will offer you a chance to make some major changes to your career path, so if you’ve been spinning your wheels now is the time to finally start taking back control and gaining some ground. This New Moon is extremely positive thanks to a loose sextile between Venus and Mars, which will add a pleasant touch to everything,, so it could feel like you’re finally getting back your mojo after something of a dry spell. You could also gain some glowing reviews from a VIP, or even receive a lovely reward for a job well-done. It’s your time to shine, so don’t sit back and wait for others to take your spotlight.

Now then, with all this in mind, it wouldn’t be entirely shocking if you’ve been focusing on work nonstop lately, but there are some very good cosmic causes for that. Messenger Mercury has been traveling with the Sun through your 10th House of Career for the last couple of weeks, but come the 17th, the cosmic communicator will leave this same oil-burning sector, not to return for another year, and move into Gemini and your 11th House of Social Networks and Global Communities. This is going to provide you with a wonderful few weeks when you can connect with people near and far, encountering familiar faces as well as meeting new ones, all in the name of bringing richer and more fulfilling experiences into your life. This could also be quite helpful when it comes to networking for professional purposes, but don’t attempt to strictly use people for what they can do for you, or your attitude might come back to bite you. Alternately, this section of your chart rules over humanitarian efforts, so if you find yourself in a position to help others this cycle could present you with some great opportunities to do so.

Mercury will be especially busy during this cycle, and will make an exciting conjunction to eccentric Uranus almost as soon as it enters Gemini, emitting a shockwave of stimulating surprise. You may receive a special invitation to join up with a new social circle or organization, and even if it isn’t your normal cup of tea you should most certainly take them up on it, because it seems you’ll enjoy this occasion far more than you’d ever expect. Don’t hold yourself to outdated views that no longer serve you; look beyond and you’ll discover something fun.
