Today's Astro Highlight for Leo from Cafe Astrology

January 18, 2019

A Sun-Uranus square happening today can produce some tension, dear Leo. While the Sun will continue to form a square to Uranus two times every year, this is the last time it does so in the sector of your solar chart related to work, health, and habits as well as the sector connected with the higher mind, beliefs, travel, and expansion, and a resolution to the conflict may be in sight. The desire to perform, work, and excel in your work or with your health is strong, but it is clashing with an equally compelling need to explore, learn, and enjoy the benefits of spontaneity and freeform learning and living. This conflict is resolving or moving to the back burner in your life after today, and it is a good idea to explore all of the feelings it elicits now. You'll need to draw on patience today, especially with directions, instructions, and opinions! A new way of thinking can emerge and benefit you, even if it irritates you initially, or you may simply need to take a bit more time with a matter before reacting. Creative energy is robust today, even if it can be hard to focus it productively. Facing a truth, even an uncomfortable one, can motivate you to improve, firm up, and get a handle on essential areas of your life, leaving you less vulnerable to worry or problems down the road.

Today's Leo Horoscope by Patrick Arundell

(Leo 24 July - 23 August)

Friday 18th January

As Venus angles towards Neptune in your financial zone, it helps to be careful with your cash. No matter how wonderful an offer or purchase, don't buy into it unless you've checked it out thoroughly. Costs could spiral if you are tempted to rush to experience something, even if it is delightful. Mind, surprise news can pave the way for a decision that leaves you happier.

The Astrology of Today – All Signs

Horoscope for All on Friday, January 18, 2019

The Sun is square Uranus and sextile Chiron today, suggesting tension related to our will to perform, follow or uphold traditions, and achieve in contrast with our desire to express ourselves as individuals, authentically.
The trick is to avoid overemphasizing the self or ego now as we recognize the need for change, growth, and improvement. A somewhat chaotic atmosphere may result, and it’s counterproductive.
A better approach would be to identify areas that need to change and seek out a solution that isn’t so dramatic or abrupt that it works against us and our relationships. We should watch for being irresponsible in our rebellions, for example, and guard against temperamental behavior and decision-making. We are more inclined to act on a whim, and routines/plans are disrupted. These energies help to stimulate the adoption of new approaches.
Fortunately, the Sun-Chiron connection increases our desire to learn and grow through our experiences.
We also enjoy a Venus-Mars trine in Fire signs, spurring us on and encouraging the pursuit of our desires. We can feel inspired to create something unique.
A Mercury-Pluto alignment is also influencing the day, and we might uncover valuable information or gain insight into a matter that’s important to us. This is a time for finding hidden meanings, although if this goes too far, we may be obsessed, manipulative, or paranoid, or inclined toward battles of words. Increased tension or worry may motivate us to make useful changes, however.
The Moon is void from 8:33 PM EST, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a sextile to Uranus), until the Moon enters Cancer at 10:45 PM EST.

This Month: Leo

January 2019 Leo Monthly Horoscope Summary: A Lunar Eclipse occurs in your sign on the 21st, and it's a significant one as the final eclipse in a set. This set has been around for a couple of years, and this one is the final nudge towards asserting your independence, understanding your relationship needs, and finding yourself. It's a powerful period for self-understanding and personal epiphanies.

There are many different fields of focus in January.

This Year: Leo

2019 Yearly Horoscope Overview

The bigger headlines of 2019 for you involve romance, creativity, work, service, and health, dear Leo. These are areas of increased activity and reward.

Jupiter is now in its own sign and, in your solar chart, journeying quite happily through your sector of joy and heart. This transit provides a terrific boost for your spirit. You’re motivated to pursue your heart’s desire, whatever that may be at this point in your life’s journey. Romantic and creative pursuits expand and fulfill you more than usual (until December) after which Jupiter heads into an already busy area of your chart: the house of work, health, routines, and habits. There, it works its magic, stimulating more fulfillment, joy, and success in your daily affairs and inspiring you to improve your work and health.

Uranus at the top of your solar chart is a powerful influence on your social standing, reputation, and career aspirations. You had a sneak peek of this energy last year, and now (from March 2019 forward), it’s sticking. This influence is with you for the coming seven years, exciting your ambitions and also encouraging you to redefine what you want to do with your life. You may recognize talents that you never knew you had, and this can be a sudden, exciting discovery. Your life path or professional life may be changing now, and for some, there can be challenges dealing with current authority figures that motivate a break from the past. It’s a time of more experimentation or attention to alternatives regarding your career or reputation. If you’ve felt confined or inauthentic in these areas, this transit is likely to address these problems. There can be times when your need for independence can dominate and drive many of your actions.

While problems related to shared finances or financial support can continue this year with Neptune’s long-term transit of your solar eighth house. However, you enjoy opportunities for increased stability or clarity with these things as Saturn gives Neptune support, and vice versa. This can be an excellent time to make changes to your current lifestyle that will benefit you for years to come. You are better able to manage your time, balancing out hard work with inspiration. You are more aware of the need for a balanced approach in your relationships, with money, and regarding diet and habits. The eclipses this year also encourage you to find a better work-rest balance. The North Node’s transit helps you to avoid becoming lost in minutia and to consider, at least from time to time, your deeper feelings and needs.

While you’re inclined to work very hard both on work and health or self-care, you’re also finding a better balance in your life through self-expression, leisure, and play. From December forward, though, you’re likely to put most of your efforts into your practical affairs, and thoroughly enjoy yourself as you do. Until then, it’s a time for expanding your leisure time, enjoying a special romance, or taking great pleasure in a special hobby or creative pursuit. 2019 can be a particularly fertile year on physical or creative levels.

Tidying up your routines continues to have strong significance now. You’re thinking about the long-term, not only making things work for you right now, and with Saturn in your solar sixth house, you are ready to make a few sacrifices regarding immediate pleasures if it will help make your future and the longterm more secure. It’s a maturing process that’s happening now, and it’s largely directed towards your work, services, health, and habits. Do watch for overdoing the work angle again this year. Even so, you’re heading towards a stellar period for these areas of life that sticks with you through 2020, and it begins in December. Skills development is favored now in preparation for the opportunities this upcoming period promises.
