Areas of Expansion in 2019 for Leo: Entertainment, Hobbies, Romance, Creativity, Work, Health, Routines
Your Leo 2019 Horoscope points to areas of life that are destined to expand and grow.
- Romance
- Hobbies
- Creativity
- Work
- Health
- Habits
Until December 2nd, 2019, your creative, playful, and romantic side expands and grows. This is a powerful time for self-expression, new forms of entertainment, and romantic explorations.
Because there has been rather serious or even tough energy in these areas of life in recent years, this new cycle with you until December 2019 can come as a breath of fresh air. You need to have some fun with this!
Your focus turns to having a good time, enjoying life, and expressing yourself in freeing, rewarding ways. Your romantic and creative worlds begin to expand and grow. You are learning to express yourself playfully and creatively without apology, and you are more willing to take some personal risks in order to do so.
Romantic opportunities tend to abound during this cycle; or chances to kick back and have fun, express yourself in unique ways, and pursue hobbies and entertainment are abundant. Creatively speaking, you can be filled with ideas and plans for realizing a dream.
This can be a fertile time on many levels, physically and emotionally. This position is associated with casual dating and exploring romantic possibilities.
Potential negatives: Excessive emphasis on, or attention to, having fun to the detriment of other life departments. You may especially need to come to a balance between attention to work and health routines and attention to romantic and creative needs, as both are strong pulls, particularly in December.
However, for the most part, you are likely to feel supported and confident during this approximately year-long cycle. A lover, child, or friend can open your mind or heart to new experiences. Creatively speaking, you can be well-received and your audience is likely to expand.
From December 2nd, 2019 onward, your work, daily routines, and health endeavors begin to expand, improve, and grow. This is a time when your work projects or duties expand, or you have increased opportunities for employment. You can be so confident in your ability to take on projects and endeavors, however, that you overload your plate, so do watch for that. Even so, Saturn’s concurrent transit can help keep you in line and productive. This influence is with you until December 2020.
You find more joy in your work (as long as you don’t overload), self-improvement endeavors, and taking care of your health. If you provide a service to others, it is likely to prosper, largely because you’re enjoying it more. You are especially successful in hiring people to work for you, if applicable, and improvements to your working environment are likely. It can be easier than usual to find employment now. You may get a new job during this cycle or significantly improve an existing one. Work tends to be very available to you. You can be very focused on what really matters to get ahead, and recognition for your efforts may be forthcoming, particularly from December forward, when higher-ups recognize your talents and efforts.
You are proud of how useful you are to others during this cycle. The more integrity and honesty you bring to your services, the more “payback” you will receive. Health is likely to prosper now, and medical procedures or programs, if necessary, are more likely to be successful. You are bringing fresh and original ideas to the work you do and the services you offer. Overload or the magnification of problems surrounding work can be experienced during this cycle. There is a tendency now to focus on the details of your work, and you might sometimes feel a little overwhelmed with monotonous tasks. There may be an inclination to put on some weight, however, if you don’t watch your sweet tooth.
Your work might involve more services or the assisting of others during this cycle, and for some, health-related or healing professions can be attractive at this time.
Challenges may occur sporadically during this period with the need for time away from your duties either to take care of yourself or of others requiring care, or the consequences of taking on so much that you have trouble taking time for yourself.
However, for the most part, this is a good time for winning appreciation for what you do or for your skills, enjoying what you do, for finding work, and for working relationships. In December, you’re in a particularly good position for pouring extra energy and attention into your career and work. Your methods are progressive yet sound.
Romance may be closely tied to work and health during this period, which can mean you are pairing up to work or improve your health or you meet a love interest through your work or through the pursuit of health goals. This may instead be about recreation or creativity. There can be opportunities to express or enjoy yourself coming as the result of your work, or chances to bring more creativity to your job. Some might turn a hobby into a vocation or work especially hard on a pastime.
Interestingly, these areas of expansion are also subject to contraction (see below)! These influences don’t cancel themselves out. Instead, they co-exist and they can stir up some wonderful productivity. You may be working hard but thoroughly enjoying it as you do!
Areas of Contraction and Lessons in Simplicity: Work, Health, Habits
Your Leo 2019 Horoscope points to areas of contraction, restriction, and necessary “slimming down” in order to test for stable foundations. There are always areas of life that require more simplicity. Tests may be part of the picture as you learn that life with only growth and expansion can run away with itself.
- Work
- Health
- Habits
Until 2020, the areas of your life that require a “back to basics” approach are associated with the sector of your solar chart that governs work, health, daily routines, employees, pets, and habits. There may be tests of sorts in these areas of life as if the universe is checking that the foundations are strong. Things built on weak foundations may crack under the pressure of these tests. Those that are strong will endure and strengthen.
This influence will be with you until 2020. It can be felt most strongly earlier or later in the cycle, depending on whether you were born earlier or later in the sign of Leo. This year, those born from approximately August 3-14 or with a Leo Ascendant of 11-21 degrees are most affected by it in 2019.
Tests can come to work and working relationships during this cycle. Responsibilities in your daily life can weigh heavily – they appear magnified. Do be sure that you are tending to your responsibilities, and not letting them pile up. Some of you might even experience some form of loss or scandal on the work front, or possibly some heavy-handed activity and power plays with co-workers.
For those of you unhappy with your job or out of work, you are not likely to jump to grab just any position that comes along now. You are looking for something mature, long-term, and reflective of your values. However, because you are more discriminating now, the pickings might seem to be slim.
The monotonous part of your work can seem harder to take, and it’s up to you to work on restructuring enough to make it work for you. Try not to see flaws, complain, and leave it at that. Take it upon yourself to make whatever adjustments you can that will improve your working conditions. The rewards may be slow to transpire, but they’re great when they do come!
This can be true of daily routines, not just working conditions. Health matters might be a little more problematic than usual. Even so, these are likely to be minor problems that can be fixed with extra attention. Essentially, this transit gives you a kick in the pants to get your self-care programs into good shape!
While the work we do may sometimes feel too routine or boring, it can also give us a strong feeling of purpose. We want to be needed, we want to help and support others, and to do our share. If you’ve been overdoing a supportive role, or if you’ve been scattering your energies and haven’t truly noted just how much you do, then Saturn here will stimulate you to tidy up. In the end, you can, in fact, feel more joyful about the services you provide and the support you give, after taking a realistic look at these things and making the necessary adjustments.
Seek ways to balance your activities and responsibilities. This is also an excellent time for simplifying and structuring your life. Because the energy of this theme is comfortable and understandable to you in these areas of life, you may very well welcome the structuring energy of this transit on your daily routines. The last time similar themes occurs was 1988-1990.
From January to November, you’re in especially good shape for both working hard and feeling inspired as you do. It’s a fabulous time for tuning into and defining your dreams or vision. It’s also a favorable time for a research project or for support for the work you do. Disciplined efforts to grow and improve on both physical and spiritual levels can pay off.
Areas of Excitement, Innovation, Independence, and Speed
Your 2019 Leo Horoscope points to areas of your life that seem to speed up so that you can take some risks, innovate, and revolutionize.
- Belief Systems
- Travel
- Perspective
- Education
- Career
- Reputation
In March 2011, you entered a lengthy cycle in which your belief systems and knowledge changed and developed, and this is active until March 2019. From May 15th to November 6th in 2018, a new theme entered your life and will resume again in 2019 from March forward.
Until March 6th, you continue to experience a spiritual awakening of sorts. Travel opportunities may arise. Learning needs to be exciting or cutting edge for you in order to keep your interest, but while you are less interested in traditional subjects or methods of learning, if you are on an educational path, be sure to “endure” some of these things so that your training is relevant to your career goals. Life experiences are unpredictable and exciting. You are embracing change and easily incorporate changes into your personality.
This may be a time when your life path takes an unexpected turn. Since this influence has been with you for many years, it may have already happened. The urge to get out and about is bound to grab hold of you. Make sure you don’t shirk important responsibilities or jump on a bandwagon that is impractical, as you could feel some tension since borrowing too heavily to finance your adventures may be a problem.
Otherwise, this is a good time for opportunities related to travel, publishing, promotional activities, favorable legal outcomes, or education. This can be a very romantic and creative period. Certainly, you’ll find channels and outlets for self-expression that can be very personally rewarding.
From March 6th, 2019, forward, your career, professional projects, reputation, and public image open up and change. These areas of life can be unpredictable – the wildcard areas of life – but also highly stimulating and innovative. You can bring fresh insight to your work.
This may be a time when you take an unexpected turn in your work. Make sure you don’t jump on a bandwagon that is impractical. Also, while you prefer to set your own pace in your work, try not to become a loner in your professional life. Others can have valuable input that you might miss while you’re too busy asserting your independence!
Your career, professional projects, reputation, and public image continue to speed up, stimulate, and open up this year. These areas of life can be unpredictable – the wild card area of life – but also highly stimulating and innovative. You can bring fresh insight into your work. You can also learn to let go of limiting self-consciousness. As long as you don’t push it too far, you can free yourself from some of the fears you have of not living up to others’ expectations, particularly those of parents or society in general.
This may be a time when you take an unexpected turn in your work or in your life path or direction. More courage is with you this year for breaking into new paths. There can be gossip to deal with or challenges finding a balance between your studies and your responsibilities at times.
You’re in particularly good shape in December this year for bringing a progressive, innovative, and unique spirit to your work or reputation.
Note that this influence runs all the way until April 2026!
Areas of Change, Purging, & Transformation
Your 2019 Leo Horoscope reveals areas of life in which change and transformation take place. It’s a time for “out with the old, in with the new.”
- Health
- Work
- Service
- Routines & Habits
- Independence
- Private or Spiritual Life
Attitudes towards work, services you provide for others, daily routines, and health continue to transform this year, and they will for many years to come. This is a good period for ridding yourself of bad habits or routines, but be careful that you don’t replace one bad habit with another!
Of course, there can be times when these alterations cause friction, and in 2019, this is more likely to happen in April, when overdoing and overscheduling can be a real problem, eating into your quiet time. Watch for excess and burning the candle at both ends, which is a real temptation.
In 2019, the Moon’s Nodes and eclipse activity encourage connecting with your purpose, spirituality, and balancing attention to physical and emotional health. The North Node in your sector of endings, spirituality, and privacy all year points to a real need to connect to your inner world, as well as to help and support others, as these things can bring wonderful benefits and much joy to your life.
