Leo Monthly Forecast

2025 always promised to be a year of change and this year it is living up to that, with the major outer planets having already shifted or are preparing to shift. This is going to change the dynamics of the year itself and for you, during the transition, this will put you in a position where having the right work/life balance will be more important than ever. Because the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of May in your career sector, the solar spotlight is always on your career and professional situation, matters and options at this time of year. While held back by a retrograde phase Venus won't return until early June, with Mercury here from 11th May to 26th May, it is looking like business as usual. Except, after six years Uranus, the planet that has kept things on track professionally is getting ready to leave in early July, bringing you to not just the most active months of this professional year on the career front, but the point that you have been working towards for years. This makes this a month where it will be important to have your professional hat on from the start. However, by the time Venus returns to your sector of adventure, travel, learning and discovery on 1st May Neptune, the planet of hopes and dreams has been here for a month and they are about to meet up for the first time here in 150 years. Venus is returning to fuel a desire for adventure just as Neptune is already starting to encourage big dreams. The game changer and what will lock this into place is Saturn's return on 25th March, when for the first time in three decades and for the first time meeting up with Neptune here in our lifetime, will give you the resolve to do whatever it takes for as long as it takes in order to turn dreams into reality. This will put the planets here in close harmony with Mars, who in his first, last and only full month back in Leo, will be looking for something to channel his passions, drive, warrior and competitive spirit into. Mars will be just as happy channelling this into a passion for adventure as he will be into your professional passions, fighting and competitive spirit.

It was over the last weekend in April that a clash between Mars in Leo and Pluto in your relationship sector once again put a balance between your own and your relationship needs to the test, something that was unique for two reasons. The first is that Mars and Pluto will normally only clash once every two years, yet this is a repeat of the same clash in the New Year. The second is that for just the second time in our lifetime, this clash is happening here, with the first having been in early January. This is already separating and with it any personal and/or relationship tension this might have created. This opposition at the end of April and in the New Year are some of the two most challenging aspects of 2025 and not just for you or your relationships, but in general and they are now behind you. This is Pluto, the planet of change, transformation and rebellion's first full year in your relationship sector and as he is here now until 2044, Mars will not only continue to clash every other year, but when the Sun, Mercury and Venus return each year, they will do the same. The difference is that they are not Mars and it was a clash between the planets of war and revolution that saw both came out fighting, Mars for your own and Pluto for your relationship needs. This is behind you now, but with Mars in Leo all month and Pluto turning retrograde in your relationship sector on 5th May, they will continue to keep an eye on each other and on that fine balance between your own and your relationship needs. The Moon will make its first visit to your communication sector since their clash from 8th May to 11th May, making this a valuable chance to get the communication lines open, with the Moon's return to your relationship sector from 18th May to 20th May a valuable chance to check in. Meanwhile, while there is no planetary activity in your romantic sector, it will be to find Venus, the planet of love having returned to an adventurous part of your chart on 1st May. From 13th May to 20th May, this will see the spirit of romance and adventure spike.
