The Week Ahead for Leo
Monday, May 25th – Sunday, May 31st
Are you ready to call someone out? Are you prepared to deal with something you have been avoiding? If you’ve answered yes to these questions, then it is time to roll up your sleeves and get down to business. Mars-Pluto aspects are excellent for purges of any description and should an important event or a big task lie in front of you, this duo will help you rise to the occasion. Nonetheless, you also need to be prepared for challenges that come out of the blue. In the slow process of metamorphosis, there are times of accelerated change, and this is one of them.
Getting down to business.
See last week’s forecast below.
Monday, May 18th – Sunday, May 24th
Plans were made to be changed. Now, I know you don’t want to hear this, but the second half of May is anything but stable and you will need to be adaptable and philosophical in order to get the best out of it. Hopefully, you have been debating whether or not to make a major life change so that these influences can help you get moving and motoring. On the other hand, should events throw out your plans and your timetable, rather than resist and rage at the fates, get on with creating new arrangements. Those of you with birthdays in late July are in the front line of change and transformation.
Be flexible and philosophical.

The Month Ahead for Leo
June 2026
Venus, the planet of love and all things nice, will be in your sign from the 13th. At the very least you have her protection but at best you could find love or see improvements in life in general and your love life in particular. On and around the 17th, a series of impressive alignments points to a significant change in a relationship. It could be you who experiences an epiphany, which changes how you feel about someone or events may come to light that affect the future of a partnership. However, with Mercury in retrograde from 29th, there is time for the situation to change yet again.

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.
