LION TAMING. The energy is primal, spontaneous and uncensored. This does not mean these people aren’t spiritual, it’s just that they don’t like bowing down to a Guru.

STATELY ELEVATORS Extremely dedicated to their field of endeavor, some may pursue a career for the sole reason of achieving high status. They need to be seen as the boss.

There are a few ways to interpret the above combo. The shock (Uranus) leads to a healing confrontation (Chiron). The sudden drama allows you to process what hurts. The courage to stand out in a truly weird way is part of your healing process.
Uranus square anything in Leo is the abrupt display – it will be public and will garner a ton of attention. Why that happens will depend on the reason for the surprise. What needs to be made public? Is there a lack of pride or appreciation? Leo also means “dignity” but sometimes this can be lost in the lust for confirmation from others. The audience is always a crucial factor with Leo.
In general, I would say this one feels like something that has to come out, although the method will be a bit risky. When dealing with a square from Uranus, check your first impulse. It’s a sign that you need to change something, but chances are your first instinct about how to do that is not the best. Sun square Uranus is the maverick, and when Leo is involved, it’s the maverick who thumbs his/her nose at the public in a very obvious and shocking way. But the end goal is still to get attention.
And that end goal will also involve the courage (Aries and Leo) to go public (Leo) with the wound (Chiron). There’s your healthy focus – how can coming out with it help you confront your demons?
As our inner gypsy calls for us this week, our craving for truth, freedom and adventure will increase under the Sagittarius Moon on Monday July 23. We’ll have a greater need to travel across foreign borders, in order to explore what remains unfamiliar – where the grass appears to be so much greener. As imagination […]

The Sun enters Leo on July 22nd at 5:00 PM EDT/2:00 PM PDT. Leo is the sign of pride, recognition, celebration and drama. Leo energy says “Look at me!” because sometimes you have to shine a light on your special talents or purpose. Otherwise known as having an ego, Leo is what keeps us centered within ourselves.
A theme that’s often overlooked with this sign is “centre.” The Sun is the centre of our solar system and Leo is ruled by the Sun. Sounds simplistic, but this is really the essence of Leo – in the spotlight. When Leo energy is firing on all cylinders there is a certainty in the gut that you’ve got what it takes. You know you’re fab and have something to offer that no one else does. You deserve to be treated like a King/Queen, and that heat radiates outwards and warms those around you (Leo generosity). No one can take that away from you – it would be like another planet nudging the Sun out of orbit.
Distorted Leo lacks that centre. In place of confidence and generosity there is desperation for attention (any attention) and ensuing drama. You look to others to boost your ego, when really you should be receiving their recognition of what you already know.
We all have something to be proud of, and that’s what Leo season is about. I understand that when you’re at your lowest it can feel impossible to celebrate you. But Leo asks that you find that one thing – it can be anything, as long as it makes you proud. Are you ready to put it out there? Yes, the audience is an essential part of Leo – this sign does not function in isolation. Even introverted Leos (they do exist) need a small infusion of public attention at some point. This is not a weakness – it’s simple a quality of the sign, just like Virgo needs order and Sag needs freedom.
The North Node is in Leo until November 6th, 2018. This means the path forward is all about taking pride in your accomplishments and shining a light on what you plan to do. Don’t be shy – celebrate yourself! Yes, I knows- this smacks of sugary self-help platitudes. But sometimes you really just have to say “This is what I’m proud of.” If you don’t recognize you, who will?
Leo is getting some eclipse action: the July 27th Full Moon eclipse in Aquarius (conjunct Mars Rx) emphasizes the South Node (detach from the past) and the August 11th, 2018 New Moon eclipse in Leo conjoins Mercury Rx, emphasizing the North Node. Note the retrograde theme – there’s unfinished business that needs to be wrapped up before you can move forward. Mars Rx and the South Node is stepping back in order to detach and Mercury Rx and the North Node is about emphasizing or reviewing the information before you move forward.
Here are the aspects the Leo Sun will make:
We recorded this one just outside Royal Windsor, after having cake at Madame Posh Tea Room — appropriately blingtastic for that most regal sign, Leo. Enjoy! And don’t forget that you can sign up to receive the in depth written horoscopes, here.

It’s eclipse season, so life has been doing a lot of twisting and turning with the tumultuous Cancer New Moon/ Solar Eclipse on Thursday July 12. It seems that no matter how tightly we may try to hold on to what has remained familiar and routine – we’ll eventually experience some form of release and […]

Pallas enters Leo on July 11th, 2018. Her strategies and patterns are dramatic in this sign- the exciting solution or the showy creation.
This is the transit of bold, public strategies – the masterstroke designed to impress. Look how I’ve saved the day! The goal is to blow others away, and the impact is just as important as the effectiveness of the solution. Ditto for creative work – applause is the final goal and designs are meant to grab attention. The joy that went into creating something will be evident, and creations will bring joy. This is a celebration of what’s bright and beautiful.
If you’re planning, creating, designing or addressing a problem, this transit suggests your efforts will be shinier than usual. Play to the audience and use people’s reactions as an indicator of how successful you’ve been. This is not the moment to hide your work.
Pallas will exit Leo for Virgo on September 4th, 2018.
