Venus In Leo

When lovely Venus enters Leo, the most expressive of all the zodiac signs, we’re ready to shout our love from the rooftops. Leo is a Fire sign that’s all about creativity, showing off, and speaking from the heart, so this energy lights up love like a torch. Expect playful dates, loud declarations of love, and maybe even a few jealous tantrums. Big feelings will be expressed now, one way or another!

No one wants to simply be liked or appreciated when Venus is in Leo, we want to be adored. This is a time to take risks and make grand gestures, so those who play it safe could be left on the sidelines during this transit.

Clearly, love isn’t calm or easygoing while Venus is in Leo. While the Lion just wants to play and enjoy life, Leo is also a sign that’s full of drama, and if we feel like we’re not getting the attention or recognition we deserve, we may lash out at lovers who are only doing their best. During this transit we may even start a passionate argument just to stir things up and feel like the center of attention again. Remember, there is no "i" in "we," and the more we focus on only ourselves and our own needs, the more likely we are to end up with just that: only ourselves.

Money is a means to an end while Venus is in Leo. It’s all about making yourself and the ones you care about feel like a million bucks. Leo is an extravagant sign who appreciates glitz, glitter, and glamour, so it’s natural to splurge a bit during this transit. But pampering ourselves will only bring us a certain amount of satisfaction. Leo is a supremely generous sign, and spending money on thoughtful or over-the-top gifts for others will make us even happier than treating ourselves now.

Venus is Leo is an especially colorful time that can re-energize your relationships with others, and remind you that a life without a little bit of fun and excitement is no life at all.

Jupiter In Leo

At its most innocent, Leo can be an incredibly fun and playful sign! Jupiter will thrive and have a strong, positive influence while it moves through expressive, creative Leo. This transit may bring out our inner artist and allow us to pursue the activities and interests that stimulate our spirits. We’ll throw ourselves into the things we love and feel a renewed appreciation for the things we’ve forgotten. This is an opportunity to find profound joys in all areas of our lives.

Intense and loyal, Leo is a fiercely loving sign that rules the heart, and while Jupiter is in Leo, our hearts have a chance to open up and grow to their maximum capacity. We’ll be able to be vulnerable and take chances in our love lives that we haven’t before. This energy isn’t just loving, it’s romantic! Jupiter in Leo is generous on a grand scale, and it’s quite possible that we’ll be swept off our feet during this time.

Leo is a passionate sign associated with bravery and expression, and Jupiter’s presence is known to amplify the traits of the sign it occupies. So when Jupiter is in Leo, we may find ourselves puffed up with courage and eager to fight for our values and beliefs. We’ll be willing and excited to make positive changes not only in our own lives but in the world at large. During this transit, we’ll be brimming with self-confidence, which will end up being both our driving force and our biggest character flaw.

Jupiter in Leo could be a time of excessive glorification of the ego. Pride in oneself is healthy, but boundless pride is a blinding light that darkens, rather than illuminates. Between Jupiter’s expansiveness and Leo’s love for leadership, there’s a likely chance that we become bossy and controlling. This can be a time of "bread and circuses," when meaningful questions are buried in the noise of spectacle. Peaceful inquiry and gentle conversation may not come easily when bombast rules.
