The Week Ahead for Leo
Monday, 9 March – Sunday, 15 March
In a little over three months, Jupiter will enter your sign beginning a year-long season of growth. However, for Jupiter to deliver its promise, the ground must be prepared. Under the current planetary influences, this is the ideal time to plant seeds that you hope will bloom in the months to come. If you have an idea, start putting the flesh on the bones of it, so to speak. Whatever your ambition, don’t leave it to the cosmos to make it happen: you have to get behind it. Build-it-and-it-will-come sort of thing. Use this week’s vibrant alignments to get things moving and motoring.
Putting your money where your mouth is.
See last week’s forecast below.
Monday, 2 March – Sunday, 8 March
Eclipses come in pairs and Tuesday’s lunar eclipse is the companion to the solar eclipse of 17 February. What may have been set in motion in mid-to-late February is completed, or at least has reached a stage where a line can be drawn under parts of it, and so a chapter is at a close. Partnerships are in focus, with an additional emphasis on finance and the balance of power in a relationship. Contracts can be signed or ripped up at this time and even though it may be difficult to detach yourself emotionally from events, you’ll get a better outcome by acquiring distance and perspective.
Getting closure.

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.
