The Week Ahead for Leo
Monday, 23 Feb – Sunday, 1 Mar
February is going out in style. On a Mars-Uranus square to be precise. Breakthroughs, breakdowns and breakups are typical of this coupling, so if you’re done with someone or something, this is the perfect time to cut the Gordian knot. For some Leos this is going to be an exciting period of the year, one in which new horizons are opening up and making you very happy. However, if you are among those Leos who feel events have got in the way of your hopes and plans, bide your time – in the future, you’ll see you are the one who gained the most from it all.
Making waves.

Monday, 16 Feb – Sunday, 22 Feb
While not every Leo will have a roller-coaster of a week, those of you with planets and points towards the end of Leo, Aquarius, Taurus and Scorpio can expect the earth to move – metaphorically-speaking. Almost all Leos are in a major period of transition, focussed first and foremost on relationships of the professional or romantic kind. For many, Tuesday’s solar eclipse marks the start of a new and bright chapter; for others, that chapter comes with a degree of upheaval, and maybe some regrets. Gaining the upper hand may not be possible at this time, and you’ll be better saving your energies and resources for later.
Bide your time.

The Month Ahead for Leo
March 2026
It may seem as though you can’t get anywhere with a certain situation, but you can if you step back and allow it some breathing room. Better still, rather than keep pressing your case, give someone a choice. With Mercury in retrograde until the 20th, you can be more confident with results after that point; before then decisions may have to be revised again later. You cannot see everything there is to see now, but by mid-April more information will have come to light and you’ll understand why someone has been out of touch and reluctant to talk.

The Year Ahead for Leo
If you thought last year was eventful, wait for this one to get rolling. The reason why 2026 is going to be a year of momentum and milestones is that from 26 July the cycle of eclipses will affect your sign. Late July through August is going to be one of the most memorable periods in recent years. The events themselves will differ from Leo to Leo but what you will share is an awesome sense that something “bigger than you” has had a hand in them. Further important dates for your diary are 23 January, 16 February and 20 July.
