2009: Leo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

2009 Overview. 2009 is likely to be a banner year for relationships, connecting with a significant other, and work with the public, dear Leo. Some of you will form a partnership that either leads to marriage or is otherwise significant, some will enhance an existing close relationship, and most will derive much joy from their relationships with significant others. New partners met this year are likely to feel much like a breath of fresh air. Challenging relationships, or challenges in relationships, tend to be left behind. 2009 is a commitment-friendly year for you. Some of you will be taking a casual affair to a whole new level. Romance becomes a little more serious, but “fun-serious”. Many of you will fall in love, or re-commit to a current lover. You continue to buckle down with money this year. Matters are not moving quickly when it comes to personal financesin fact, there can be some struggles regarding unpredictable trends with money from outside sources or shared with a partner, which should be sorted out by October. Those born early in the sign (from July 23-27) may be required to make adjustments in their work and health routines in order to accommodate new changing circumstances. Towards the end of year, many of you will be getting serious about learning, studying hard, and changing your attitudes towards work. Many will be working on perfecting and refining skills that will be useful on the job, and some will be forced into that position. Career matters are dynamic and exciting from June 7-July 5.

2009 Details. Jupiter is moving through your solar seventh house all year, and you are likely to benefit through marriage, common-law partnerships, business partnerships, and negotiations. This is a year when you are more likely to establish or solidify a significant partnership. You can negotiate more successfully than ever, and, if applicable, win in legal matters. Financial benefits could possibly come through partnerships. Legal matters or challenging relationship problems from the past can be resolved, and more casual disputes can be settled. You may find yourself taking on the role of consultant or advisor, or you could benefit through help from same. Good publicity may come your way. If your work takes you before the public, you can safely expect popularity. Relationships and partnerships benefit from expansive, warm energy, or successful new ones are entered into this year. These positive circumstances won’t necessarily fall into your lap, and are unlikely to come all at once. You need to keep your eyes open for opportunities in these areas of life.

The most favorable periods for these matters occur while Jupiter is in direct motion in your solar seventh, from January 5 through June 14, and then from October 14 through December.

Because Jupiter rules your sector of romance, creative activities, entertainment, and children, its position in Aquarius suggests a more impersonal, friendly, and humanitarian approach to these matters. A casual romance may be taken to new levels this year, i.e., it may become a committed partnership. You may be attracting romantic partners with Aquarius qualities as well.

Saturn continues to transit your solar second house until the end of October, urging you to take stock of your effectiveness, self-worth, and finances. This stage of your life may be marked by hard work. Financial success may not be remarkable, yet it is generally steady, if slow to come by. This transit has traditionally been associated with financial loss, but in truth, it is more about our perceptions–you are apt to review how effective you have been on a financial level to date, and find some dissatisfaction with your progress. In fact, gains may be slow, but sudden reversals are not common with this transit.

The purpose of this transit is for you to make the connection between your own feelings of self-worth and what you produce in the real world/get back from the real world. In recent years, you may have had some feelings of being unsupported (you may have been thinking, “I work so hard, and what do I get for all this hard work?”), but as the transit moves forward this year, you learn to look inside of yourself with a newfound clarity and realism and ideally draw up considerable strength from within. You work on your effectiveness in the world, and see exactly what has been holding you back from achieving the results you want. The challenge here is to capture the newly found and defined self-confidence you gained while Saturn was in Leo, and now apply it in the real world.

For those born July 23-27, Saturn moves into your third house from the end of October and into 2010. You are more productive, with a responsible and sometimes even somber outlook. Although you have a desire to make contacts, you are now rather preoccupied with learning or producing, and you may view idle chit-chat as a waste of time. You could feel an unusual pressure to structure your time and effort, and to cut out communication that seems unnecessary. Bouncing ideas off a special person in your life will produce great benefits. You are more able to accomplish something solid this year. By the end of the transit, you will have ideally gained a greater depth of understanding, having focused on information and communication that you really can use to feel more effective in the world.

With the ruler of your fifth house and the ruler of your eighth house aligned, your feelings towards love, creativity, and children are especially intense and sometimes complicated this year. You more easily surrender to deeply intimate bonding. Your attitude towards casual love affairs can completely transform and change this year. Some of you may work on a creative level for a partner or spouse in order to contribute to his/her financial standing. Financial speculation should be approached cautiously, whether it’s due to an increased desire to take risks, or to speculate with borrowed or shared money, or if a spouse or partner is inclined towards risk-taking with shared resources.

In 2009, many Leos will experience increased faith in their partnerships or in their attitude towards partnerships in general. Try to avoid overly idealistic views of your relationship, however, as you could be setting yourself up for disappointment if your goals are set too high, i.e. inhumanly high!

Uranus continues to shake up your solar eighth house. There could be some ambiguities or unexpected happenings surrounding money that are part of your life but that don’t come from your own income. This includes such things as shared resources with a close partner, alimony, taxes, loans, and so forth. At times, this could throw you off balance. This position could also indicate a period of uncertainty surrounding your intimate relationships, and/or some experimentation with your sexuality. This influence is not new to you. Neptune’s presence in your solar seventh house is also an influence that has been with you for awhile, casting some “fog” over your partnerships. You may be meeting evasiveness in a partner or potential mates.

Early Leos (born July 23-26 or with an Ascendant of 0-3 degrees Leo) are likely to experience job or health changes that require a completely new attitude and various adjustments in order to manage effectively.

Mars turns retrograde in your sign near the end of the year: from December 20/2009 to March 10/2010, and personal initiatives slow down, or even halt. This is a period of re-assessment for you. Some of you will experience delayed or cancelled travel plans.

January’s Solar Eclipse falls in your solar seventh house. In the first half of 2009, circumstances will alert you to the need to interact with others–either the public, or through a close partnership. For some, marriage or divorce will be an issue. For most, carving out a personal identity that includes a significant other who furthers their own personal growth will come into focus. This eclipse should give you a push towards a stronger identity or sense of purposefulness through close partnership.

February’s Lunar Eclipse falls in your solar first house, and it may be time to change your image or redefine your personality in some manner. Finding a balance between autonomy and dependence is what this eclipse is about for you. Your emotions are on your sleeve right now. It is a good time to put your needs first, but doing so with respect for others will take you further. Whether you can succeed as a leader is “tested” right now.

July’s Solar and Lunar Eclipses fall in your twelfth and sixth houses respectively. In the second half of the year, circumstances urge you to rid yourself of guilt about under-performing, and to develop faith and trust in a larger more spiritual plan. It’s time to let go of some of your fears that you are not doing enough, to develop more compassion and understanding of others, and to be humble, feeling safe in the knowledge that you (and others) are not perfect. It’s time to let go of some of your obsessions with rules, details, and fears of not doing things perfectly.

There could be changes necessary in your job or health routines. You can use this surge of emotional energy to make positive changes to your routines. Do something to improve your work conditions if they are annoying you. Get going on your exercise or nutrition program that you know you have to do in order to feel more balanced.

The August Lunar Eclipse falls in your solar seventh house, and partnerships may be tested, but there is nothing to fear if the relationship is strong. The seventh house represents an important one-to-one relationship–a marriage partner, significant other, business partner, or an adversary. It’s time to strike a balance between your own needs and those of another. It’s time to compromise and negotiate.

Your strongest financial periods in 2009 occur from August 22-September 2 and September 21-28.

Financial success may not be remarkable, yet it is generally steady, if slow to come by.

In fact, gains may be slow, but sudden reversals are not common with this transit.

Jupiter conjuncts Neptune in your seventh house three times this year–May 27, July 10, and December 21. A spirit of altruism and generosity, making connections with others from a different background, widening your mind through unusual or different experiences, expanded faith, and a feeling that anything is possible if you set your sights high enough are all themes. With the ruler of your fifth house and the ruler of your eighth house aligned, your feelings towards love, creativity, and children are especially intense and sometimes complicated this year. You more easily surrender to deeply intimate bonding. Your attitude towards casual love affairs can completely transform and change this year.

January’s Solar Eclipse falls in your solar sixth house. In the first half of 2009, issues of work and service, as well as health (both mental/spiritual, and physical), come into focus. You are called upon to deal with the the details and practicalities of everyday life, to become more organized, and to take charge of your routines. It’s time to formulate some clear goals and plans. Circumstances are such that you need to develop some healthy habits, routines, and schedules. Believing in a grand plan is fine, but practical concerns need to be dealt with as well. Recognizing your personal limitations in terms of just how much you can give to others and just how much compassion and understanding you can show is essential now. It’s time to structure your life.

Your strongest financial periods in 2009 occur from September 2-12 and September 28-October 6.

Leo (Born August 13 to 22) – 20 to 30 degrees Leo:

2009: Leo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

Many of you will fall in love, or re-commit to a current lover. You continue to buckle down with money this year. Matters are not moving quickly when it comes to personal finances–in fact, there can be some struggles regarding unpredictable trends with money from outside sources or shared with a partner, which should be sorted out by October. Those born early in the sign (from July 23-27) may be required to make adjustments in their work and health routines in order to accommodate new changing circumstances.

Many will be working on perfecting and refining skills that will be useful on the job, and some will be forced into that position. Career matters are dynamic and exciting from June 7-July 5.

2009 Details. Jupiter is moving through your solar seventh house from April forward, and you are likely to benefit through marriage, common-law partnerships, business partnerships, and negotiations. This is a year when you are more likely to establish or solidify a significant partnership. You can negotiate more successfully than ever, and, if applicable, win in legal matters. Financial benefits could possibly come through partnerships. Legal matters or challenging relationship problems from the past can be resolved, and more casual disputes can be settled.

The most favorable periods for these matters occur while Jupiter is in direct motion in your solar seventh, from April 5-June 14, and then from November 24 through December.

Saturn began its transit of your solar second house in November 2008 and continues to do so in 2009, urging you to take stock of your effectiveness, self-worth, and finances. This stage of your life may be marked by hard work. Financial success may not be remarkable, yet it is generally steady, if slow to come by. This transit has traditionally been associated with financial loss, but in truth, it is more about our perceptions–you are apt to review how effective you have been on a financial level to date, and find some dissatisfaction with your progress. In fact, gains may be slow, but sudden reversals are not common with this transit.

The purpose of this transit is for you to make the connection between your own feelings of self-worth and what you produce in the real world/get back from the real world. In recent years, you may have had some feelings of being unsupported (you may have been thinking, “I work so hard, and what do I get for all this hard work?”), but as the transit moves forward in 2009, you learn to look inside of yourself with a newfound clarity and realism and ideally draw up considerable strength from within. You work on your effectiveness in the world, and see exactly what has been holding you back from achieving the results you want. The challenge here is to capture the newly found and defined self-confidence you gained while Saturn was in Leo, and now apply it in the real world.

For Leos born August 13-20 and those with a Leo Ascendant of 20-27 degrees, Uranus is shaking up your eighth house in 2009. There could be some ambiguities or unexpected happenings surrounding money that are part of your life but that don’t come from your own income. This includes such things as shared resources with a close partner, alimony, taxes, loans, and so forth. At times, this could throw you off balance. This position could also indicate a period of uncertainty surrounding your intimate relationships, and/or some experimentation with your sexuality.

For Leos born August 13-20 and those with a Leo Ascendant from 20-27 degrees, Neptune opposes your Sun this year. It can be hard to pin down a partner to a solid commitment. Or, you may begin to attract Neptunian people into your life–at best, they can be compassionate, artistic, or spiritual types. At the other end of the spectrum, they can be elusive, evasive, or downright deceptive. You could struggle somewhat with your own expectations in partnerships. Self-deception may very well be in play, and when others don’t quite measure up to their expectations, disappointments occur.

Do your best to see people for who they are rather than what you’d really like them to be. Your own goals could be confusing, and your energy levels could swing quite dramatically at times, perhaps reflecting this inner confusion. A more spiritual approach to your life is in order, and this Neptune transit calls upon you to detach yourself from some of your more worldly and materialistic goals.

Recognizing your personal limitations in terms of just how much you can give to others and just how much compassion and understanding you can show is essential now. It’s time to structure your life. February’s Lunar Eclipse falls in your solar first house, and it may be time to change your image or redefine your personality in some manner. Finding a balance between autonomy and dependence is what this eclipse is about for you. Your emotions are on your sleeve right now. It is a good time to put your needs first, but doing so with respect for others will take you further. Whether you can succeed as a leader is “tested” right now.

July’s Solar and Lunar Eclipses fall in your twelfth and fifth houses respectively. In the second half of the year, circumstances urge you to rid yourself of guilt about under-performing, and to develop faith and trust in a larger more spiritual plan. It’s time to let go of some of your fears that you are not doing enough, to develop more compassion and understanding of others, and to be humble, feeling safe in the knowledge that you (and others) are not perfect. It’s time to let go of some of your obsessions with rules, details, and fears of not doing things perfectly.

A romantic affair may be tested. If love is true, there’s nothing to fear. The demands of your larger goals in life may have been eclipsing your pleasure-seeking activities. Also possible, your children may be going through their own changes and “stages”, and need more attention now.

The August Lunar Eclipse falls in your solar sixth house, and there could be changes necessary in your job or health routines. You can use this surge of emotional energy to make positive changes to your routines. Do something to improve your work conditions if they are annoying you. Get going on your exercise or nutrition program that you know you have to do in order to feel more balanced.

Your strongest financial periods in 2009 occur from September 12-22 and October 6-14. However, the first period is better for review of financial matters and budgeting than for making purchases.
