2025 is the year you grow and expand in ways you haven’t stretched yourself in twelve years. The first half of 2025 brings great professional recognition and career success, and the second half you choose to devote to your personal life and your environment. Your business income increases and allows you to enjoy more of that luxury you royal cats love! And this is GOOD, Leo, as despite all your hard work and earnings (and you charge a pretty penny for your services, which you should as they are stellar and the best in their field) this has felt like a time of self-deprivation and lack. Which, to many, makes no sense. This situation will be completely rectified in 2025. You feel by the end of the year as if you live in plenty and abundance, as you must to feel fulfilled.
Your community will do much to help you, particularly after abundant Jupiter which has been retrograde turns direct in your eleventh house of friends, community, and professional colleagues Tuesday, February 4, and brings their help into your life! Until June 9, 2025, that is. This will give you an intense feeling of relief.
So, with the people around you, do not doubt yourself, Leo. Your psychic insights are ON!
Both in love and in business, when you first meet a person – trust, absolutely trust, your first impression. Whatever anyone else says. Go with it, your psychic hit. Absolutely. 100%. Use this to hire, fire, fall in love, befriend, defriend. It will not steer you wrong.
Do not be shy about showing off. The universe is ASKING you to do this. Take the lead and ask for what you want. Your persuasive powers are at an all-time high now and you can get what you want!
That said, with the way you’re feeling now, it may feel like you’re being held up to scrutiny and pressure more than you can bear. And how can you possibly take anymore?
The only tricky part as 2024 ends and 2025 begins is the waiting you may have to do. (I know, no one likes to wait. We all want it tomorrow.) This means that, despite your take charge position, plans, particularly financial plans, may not come through – to your liking – until the beginning of February. So, please be patient, and trust in the universe.
Be patient also with love (I know, I know), and also with your solitary mind and its imaginings. These in particular clear up and move forward positively as March begins. Imaginings and such may seem like an indulgent luxury, the last thing on your mind. You are to be forgiven if you have been feeling a bit – stretched.
For in your sixth house of work and service you have:
The life-saving Sun (your awesome ruler, naturally!)
Brilliant Mercury, planet of thought and communication
Ceres, asteroid of nurturing, unconditional love, and transitions
And an ambitious new Capricorn Moon on Monday, December 30 – powerful new life in your domestic scene at the beginning of 2025!
These are all positive forces blessing you in the sixth house areas traditionally ruled by hard-working Virgo:
Work, work, work
Duty, obligation, service to others
Domestic day-to-day
Your health
How you eat and exercise every day
Your daily routines and rituals
Your pets
Ability to nurture others (and not resent it)
So is there anything you need to watch out for this happy holiday season?
Watch all the short fuses around you. Mars is in retrograde! And in your sign of Leo, and in your first house, until Monday, January 6!
Sexy Mars is traditionally the Roman god of war – Ares in the Ancient Greek – and it affects us ALL. Right now, Mars is in a particularly nasty retrograde, making everyone’s fuses extra short, making us impulsive, impatient, fiery, quick to offense (and to offend), and causing outright fights. Avoid confrontation during this retrograde. The retrograde can also make you tired, and you will require more rest. It began December 6 and lasts until February 23, 2025. Our environment is highly charged at this time, and you need to take extra good care of yourself. Take a breath before you speak or react – or post. Stay in peace.
Mars is closer to Earth when it retrogrades so its power is stronger on us. It is not as easy for arguments to blow over or for anger to subside. Mars reaches its peak in the cycle, which is its opposition with the Sun on January 16, 2025, midway through the retrograde cycle when Mars is closest to Earth. It will feel like the world is on fire.
Full disclosure: I am most worried about Monday, January 6, an infamous anniversary for the U.S., when retrograde Mars will move into the country’s sun sign of Cancer. I am not looking forward to this day.
YOU need to watch out most for the full Moon of Monday, January 13 in your twelfth house of your unconscious, as this is when you will most likely lose your temper. You may actually feel you’re losing your mind then.
For more on the this, read my December 2024 Retrogrades in the “News” link (Home page) or here.
Despite a nasty Mars retrograde in Leo until January 6, you still really make this holiday. It will be one for the history books. You work like one of Santa’s elves to make it perfect! You give so much and do so much for others, in true holiday spirit, and you make it all so beautiful. Your creative efforts really pay off, and in a grand way.
Beautiful Leo, you deserve a poem to be written for you. Like Aphrodite, who was so beautiful that flowers grew wherever she walked, so it is the same with you. Your energy is golden, and of the Sun. It is true magic.
How I wish I’d been born a Leo! (Why do you think my name is Aslan?)
Leos have it better than anybody, and I’ll tell you why.
Even when you are going through the depths of suffering – it is beautiful. It is a great honor to see a Leo cry. They rarely do in front of other people. If you see one, it is like catching lion tears. Again – magic. So, don’t be afraid of suffering in front of your friends. Of crying. It gives them something. Your lion tears.
For all your work this year, 2024, you may feel disappointed. Not everything you wished for has come through.
January 2024 is about you selling yourself back into the world again. Networking like crazy with Jupiter blessing your eleventh house. It will be a piece of cake for you. Your new self socially. The role you’ve been waiting to step into is yours. Already. Just embrace it.
When you have been through a thing that could have killed you and it did not – that is real survival. You have triumphed. You are coming out on display again in the world. You need to feel proud. You’ve grown much stronger this payear. Saturn only makes the wise stronger.
A new financial arrangement is going to work out much better than you had imagined. Working with others gets great results this January. As the month truly gets underway partners get more and more agreeable and begin to pull more of their own weight.
It’s interesting how you end 2024 more in the realm of the domestic and 2025 becomes the whole wide world outside it. You spread your wings and you fly!
P.S. Happy Holidays!
