The Week Ahead for Leo
Monday, 25 Aug – Sunday, 1 Sept
On Monday, Venus enters your sign for a four-week visit during which time affairs of the heart should dominate your time and energy, whether you are reigniting a lost spark or beginning a new love affair. Before Venus gets underway, however, she must oppose Pluto setting the stage for an event with profound consequences. While some Leos could make a forever decision at this time, others could be on the receiving end of someone else’s actions. For some Leos, especially those with planets and points around two degrees of Leo, Aquarius, Taurus or Scorpio, events that took place in late July may play into those of today.
Are you in or are you out?

Monday, 18 Aug – Sunday, 24 Aug
This week’s new moon (22nd/23rd, depending where you are in the world) is squared by Uranus, so any new chapters will open suddenly and surprisingly. Technically, this new moon and its theme of new chapters will have an effect on your self-worth, whether in terms of finance and material assets or your value as a person. As a precaution, take a little more care with financial transactions, your identity and reputation – a knee-jerk response could have unfortunate consequences. On the plus side, a gamble could pay off and an inspired move may take you where you didn’t expect to go – in a good way.
Stay alert.

The Month Ahead for Leo
September 2025
If you thought August was impressive, wait and see what September has to offer. It is a ground-breaking period, whether you are willingly heading into new territory or because you have no choice other than to change course. Venus will be in your sign until the 19th, making this a largely successful and happy period, and one in which love can blossom and flourish. However, with a lunar and solar eclipse in play, there are no guarantees that what you thought would happen happens. Chance plays a big part in events with some of you celebrating your good fortune and others heading back to the planning room.

The Year Ahead for Leo
The eclipses of the year (14 March and 7th and 21 September) cut across the financial axis making 2025 a year of unexpected gains. However, settlements and inheritances could come with complications… There is no room for toxic situations in your life. As a result, you’ll be reinventing aspects of your existence. The periods around 27 April, 24 July and 9 August are turning points… Other people are the reason for the year’s highs and lows whether they open doors for you and change your life for the better or you cross swords with someone who proves to be a serious enemy.
