The Week Ahead for Leo
Monday, April 20 – Sunday, April 26
If you sense you’re on the crest of something big, you’d be right. This is a mighty astro-scape with mighty consequences. Even the smallest shift in a situation could lead to an avalanche of important developments. Is it easy? Will everything go as you expect? Probably not, but if you’ve needed things to change, here it comes with knobs on. Prepare to be flexible. Give people room to manoeuvre. It may seem as though you have no option other than to act in a certain way, but if you pull back and sleep on the situation, you will see there are more advantages to it than you thought.

Monday, April 13 – Sunday, April 19
This may not be the easiest of times to plan ahead, so don’t make it even harder on yourself by fighting the current. Wait and see how everything pans out, whether in terms of the global picture or your own situation. With Mars meeting Neptune and Saturn, there’s a lot you cannot see and a lot you cannot change. However, that doesn’t mean you don’t have choices. And, as always with anything Saturn-shaped, the hard decision is the right decision. Friday’s new moon takes place in the area of far horizons, placing the focus on people and places abroad. Travel may prove complicated; likewise, communications could be hit and miss.
No need to panic.

The Month Ahead for Leo
April 2026
Foreign shores beckon. April widens your horizons and invites you to get a new perspective on life and love. Easter is a proverbial journey, first and foremost an emotional one. You can mend fences and renew old bonds. And for a few Leos there is a possibility of moving to another place, even another country. In two months’ time, Jupiter will enter your sign setting the stage for a year of growth and opportunity. Thus, any unexpected changes or losses serve a greater purpose, knowledge that may prove particularly valuable on and around the 25th.

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.
