Leo Daily Forecast

You're destined for greatness, but even a mighty Leo needs a strategy. You're on the verge of something big, but the key is to slow down and play it smart. Forget blazing forward like a maniac—channel your inner chess master instead. Subtlety is sexy. Move quietly, strike loudly and watch the world bow at your feet. It's not about the sprint, Leo; it's about owning the flippin' marathon.

It is less that today's stars are sending mixed messages and more that you have not only reached an important point in the week on both sides of life's fence but of the year itself. Having the Moon your career sector in the heart of the week professionally and especially as this is giving you a window into the forces here and on the income front that will dominate the coming year. At the same time, as she settles into the first full day of her longest visit to your sector of adventure, travel, learning and discovery in eight years, Venus has the kind of backing that is not only here to stay but with more on the way.

Mercury might be separating from his friendly aspect to Jupiter yesterday, but in the heart of his first, last and only full week in your relationship sector, this has given the planet of communication some heavyweight support. With Mercury leaving later next week and the South Node no longer in your communication sector, having the communication lines open is a top priority.

Bored? That's because your royal attention span is about as reliable as a Wi-Fi signal at a music festival. Stop ghosting potential lovers the minute they send an emoji you don't like. Sure, there's a sea of options, but how about wading a little deeper? You're not fishing for minnows. Give someone a chance to reel you in—they might surprise you.

While having the Moon in your career sector in the heart of the working week is always an advantage, this is doing more than just sharpening your professional instincts and keeping you emotionally and intuitively engaged and aware. This first visit since Uranus turned direct here last week, since the South Node left your income sector and since Mercury left your work sector last week, is a chance to check in with the changing dynamics of this professional year.

A day after Venus left your financial sector, Neptune and the North Node are moving into a tighter alignment. This is something that won't peak for another two days, but for the whole week Neptune, the planet of hopes and dreams will be linked into the North Node's sense of financial direction. Whatever financial desires, hopes and dreams Venus left you with are continuing to be refined.

To lessen any frustration you may feel, you give yourself a treat. This might involve shopping or someone special cooking you your chosen meal. Alternatively, perhaps spending time on your hobby or favorite pastime is what you prefer. Anything that takes you away from the stresses and strains of everyday life is a valuable improvement.
