Leo
Warm, generous and magnetic, Leo shines wherever they go - a natural leader with a big heart and an even bigger presence.
The Last Quarter Moon in your own sign asks you to release an old version of yourself—a habit, an identity, a way of being that no longer fits. The Sun in Scorpio illuminates your fourth house of home and family, while Mercury retrograde there suggests unfinished business on the domestic front or a conversation with a relative that needs revisiting. Mars and Jupiter both in Leo amplify your energy and confidence, but today's lunar phase counsels subtraction, not addition. Let go of one expectation you've been carrying about who you should be.
Sunday's Cancer Moon invited you into your inner world, and with Mars present, you may have wrestled with emotions or memories you'd rather not face. The waning phase supported releasing what's been hidden—old resentments, secret fears, patterns that play out in the dark. If you felt tired or withdrawn, that was the work happening. Solitude served you well.
With the Moon entering Virgo and your second house of money and values, your focus shifts to practical matters: budgets, purchases, what you own and what owns you. Mercury retrograde in Scorpio reminds you to double-check home-related paperwork or family communications—a small detail could matter more than you think. Venus retrograde in Libra, your third house, continues to review how you communicate and connect locally. Today, audit one area of spending or sort through possessions you no longer need. Clarity about resources brings confidence.
This week begins with the Last Quarter Moon in your sign on Monday, a powerful moment to release what no longer serves your sense of self. The Sun in Scorpio illuminates your fourth house of home and roots, and with Mercury retrograde there, you're being asked to revisit domestic matters, family dynamics, or your living situation. Tuesday brings the Moon into Virgo and your second house, grounding your attention in finances and possessions—midweek favours practical money decisions and decluttering. Mars and Jupiter in your sign all week give you energy and optimism, but the retrograde climate counsels patience. Friday's Moon in Libra lights up your third house of communication, where Venus retrograde is already at work; expect old conversations or local connections to resurface. By Sunday, the Moon enters Scorpio, deepening your focus on home and emotional foundations. Choose one thing you've been tolerating and change it—small shifts in your environment create large shifts in your spirit.
November opens with the Moon moving into your sign on the 1st, putting your needs and feelings front and centre. Mercury retrograde in your fourth house of home until the 14th may bring family conversations or domestic repairs back for review—be patient with housemates and relatives. Venus is also retrograde in your third house of communication until the 14th, asking you to reconsider how you express affection and whether old friendships need mending. Both planets station direct on the 14th, clearing the air. The New Moon in Scorpio on the 9th falls in your fourth house, offering a fresh start at home—this is the moment to set intentions around family, property, or emotional security. The Sun enters Sagittarius on the 22nd, lighting up your fifth house of creativity, romance, and pleasure—joy returns. Mars moves into Virgo and your second house of money on the 26th, motivating you to earn and assert your worth. The Full Moon in Gemini on the 24th illuminates your eleventh house of friendships and community—a social connection reaches a turning point. November asks you to tend your roots so your branches can grow stronger.
Your confidence is contagious this year - step into the spotlight you have been circling. Recognition comes when generosity leads, and creative projects flourish.
