The Week Ahead for Leo
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.

Monday, 9 Feb – Sunday, 15 Feb
The accent continues to be on relationships and while not every Leo is waiting in anticipation for Valentine’s Day, almost all Leos will be going through a phase where other people are having more of an impact on their lives. At this period of the year, the ball is not in your court, which doesn’t mean you have no power to influence your affairs but it does imply that other people’s needs, opinions and feelings have to be taken into consideration. Give people their sovereignty and they will be able to act freely, which may well turn out to be exactly what you were hoping for.
Make some breathing room.

The Month Ahead for Leo
February 2026
The month opens with a full moon in your sign, and what took place last July may well have a part to play in events. It is a time of closure, a time to reach understandings and make agreements. Add to this a solar eclipse in the relationship zone (17th) and love and romance are going to be the big story this February. While you may be over the moon with what happens, some Leos, especially those with mid-August birthdays, could have the rug pulled out from beneath them. But you know the answer to that: learn to dance on a moving carpet!

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.
