Today's Leo Horoscope from Cafe Astrology

November 20, 2025

Mercury’s retrograde in your home sector these days can point to past problems resurfacing for review, dear Leo. This is a good time to revise plans and rework old projects. However, the New Moon early today occurs in the same sector of your solar chart, stimulating a burst of energy and motivation to take charge of home and family matters. There is a strong focus on improvements to these areas of your life now and in the coming weeks. You may be especially focused on reorganizing or even remodeling your home, routines, and home environment. The major focus with family can be on looking to the past to improve the present and the future. As the day advances, there can be a pleasant intensity to your relationships. You may be feeling that your head and heart are in agreement, and can be particularly excited about a person or cause, or someone is an inspiration for you to improve, particularly on a mental level.

The Astrology of Today – All Signs

Horoscope for All on Thursday, November 20, 2025

The inferior conjunction of Mercury and the Sun occurs this morning, giving us a unique window into the past as it might impact our future.
This is a good time for processing recent events and ideas and beginning to look at problems or issues from a new perspective and with a new understanding, mainly related to shared resources, intimate relationships, and indebtedness.
Significant new ideas are born at this time, and they’re likely to have real staying power or importance in our lives.
What we say or write now has an impact, for better or for worse.
However, we may not have all the facts necessary to come to a solid conclusion, and we might later have to revise plans or decisions.
As well, the New Moon in Scorpio occurs at 1:47 AM EST, prompting a new beginning.
In the weeks ahead, we may be working on our self-mastery skills.
It’s a fine time to pinpoint the things in our lives that make us feel out of control, such as addictions and debts, and work toward release from these emotional burdens.
We may be able to rid ourselves of excess “junk” in our lives, material or spiritual.
We may be moved to dig deeper into the mysteries around us rather than remain content with the status quo.
Taking the time to understand others’ motives can enrich our feelings of intimacy.
We could use this cycle to develop a particular project or relationship to add purpose and depth to our lives.
It can also be a time to seek ways to release our fear of confrontations and heavy emotional situations.
We’re discovering that although they may be uncomfortable, these situations can lead us toward psychological healing.
The New Moon tightly aligns with retrograde Mercury, and it’s hard to see our path, but our discomfort with the past can be very real now, motivating new beginnings.
With this lunation's opposition to Uranus, we should watch for prematurity and abrupt changes or rebellion.
However, it can be a courageous, proactive time.
The desire to change and improve our lives is intense.
This New Moon engages with many planets and major bodies, also drawing in the support of Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, and Pluto.
Also today, Uranus and Neptune form an exact sextile,
This is the first of five in this set. As with many outer-planet transits, this aspect repeats multiple times over the course of many months.
During the period influenced by this outer-planet transit with its longer-term effects, we’re seeking (and finding) illumination. It’s a time of more openness to alternative ways of living, believing, and expression.
We’re receptive to different or unusual experiences and ideas.
At the same time, we’re averse to any form of force-feeding spirituality or belief systems, preferring our freedom to follow our intuition.
It’s time to reform and update how we express compassion, care for the underprivileged, pursue our dreams, seek escape, and engage in art and creativity.
However, we can also be more sensitive to stimulants.
The Moon is void from 4:25 AM EST, with the Moon's last aspect before changing signs (an opposition to Uranus), until the Moon enters Sagittarius at 5:26 AM EST.

November 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Leo:

Your personal life and domestic matters are in strong focus in November, dear Leo. It's a time for honoring your need for comfort, safety, love, nurturing, and familiarity. At the same time, a strong and building theme of love, leisure, and creativity runs through the month, and you’re likely to find some wonderful channels for enjoyment.

Until the 6th, playful or creative communications, learning, flirtations, and engaging learning experiences can figure strongly. From the 6th to the 30th, it's a strong time for entertaining or peace-making with family. Domestic matters are warm and harmonious. With Mars moving into your solar fifth house and into harmony with your sign on the 4th, personal energy is significantly improved–it can feel as if a weight lifts from your shoulders. This extra “get up and go” does wonders for your outlook.

Around the Full Moon on the 5th, the emergence of a responsibility or a need to pay special attention to a work or public matter can come into focus. Temporarily, you could feel pressured or scrutinized, but the adjustments you make as a result will dramatically improve your potential for success. While your heart is with your domestic world, handling outside responsibilities can help you enjoy these matters more fully.

Mercury turns retrograde on the 9th, which can introduce some delays or redirections. Aim to slow down a little and give people space. There may be some backtracking that affects your romantic relationships or projects, but it also gives you the chance to rethink certain plans and get them right. The 9th to the 12th requires patience and restraint, with Mars wanting to push ahead and aligning with retrograde Mercury. Impulsive moves and words should be avoided now. It’s a period when adjusting to a slower pace can be uncomfortable but it’s also temporary.

November is a powerful time for getting in deeper touch with your innermost needs and desires, but it’s not always a straightforward process. People from the past can be a theme now, whether it’s about someone reconnecting with you or thinking (obsessing) about the past. Mercury retrograde periods are fertile for review and reflection, especially on the 20th, when a new perspective on the past benefits you, but the beginning and end dates can be rather charged and disorienting--this month, Mercury is retrograde from the 9th to the 29th.

Jupiter turns retrograde in your privacy sector on the 11th, and it's bound to draw you inward to some degree. You can be contemplative at times. Your faith in your instincts or in life itself may not be as strong as it has been. This is a temporary, perhaps necessary process that allows you to reassess where you want to be, where you’re heading, and whether your connection to your spiritual side needs some nurturing. If you’ve been overdoing withdrawal or escape, or if you’ve been so devoted to taking care of others that you’ve fallen behind on filling your own needs, then this retrograde cycle, lasting until March, will help you balance things out.

The New Moon on the 20th brings powerful energy for new beginnings in your personal life. It can inspire you to make improvements to your living conditions.

Romantic or creative themes are strong with Mars in your solar fifth house from the 4th onward, the Sun moving into this sector on the 21st, and then Venus following suit on the 30th. Mercury is a visitor until the 18th. It’s an expressive time, and your love life may be up and down, but it's active! This might instead be about a creative burst and finding great energy in creating things that make you proud.

Even with Mercury retrograde much of the month, it's a generally good time to smooth over differences or strengthen relationships by listening and engaging. People you care about are easier to get along with. Your home life might benefit from some organization, and your relationships could use rules or structure. You can benefit tremendously from working on a domestic project that requires concentration. Knowing your priorities helps you make good choices.

With Saturn’s direct turn on the 27th, you might gain more clarity with finances or a relationship. This turnaround can also boost your conviction to make a significant lifestyle change. You may see progress with debts or financial support from this date forward. The need to buckle down could prompt you to be more attentive to — or responsible for — a matter.

It’s also possible to gain more clarity in your intimate life or about an important project. Stability is comforting, in fact, and a bit of routine can be just what you need to feel on track. Getting organized and taking care of business can be enjoyable, and you’re likely to come up with great ideas about doing business, making money, or improving methods and efficiency. Just two days after Saturn ends its retrograde, Mercury does the same, reinforcing a strong sense that you're moving forward. Information is unclogging, and delays are lifting as you close out the month.

This Year: Leo

2025 Yearly Horoscope Overview

Until June, and especially from February forward, it’s a time for making connections and inspiring new ideas, dear Leo. Your social circle is expanding, although you should watch for excesses. While the saying goes that you can never have too many friends, you don’t want to spread yourself thin. Similarly, avoid beginning so many new projects that you scatter yourself across them.

However, friends or groups can be supportive, and, for some Leos, romance ties in with friendship or group associations. Your team spirit runs high, and you might make wonderful contributions to a group or with associates you can feel proud of.

You might consider Jupiter’s entry into the sign behind yours in June as the opportunity for a retreat of sorts – a year-long cycle that prepares you for Jupiter’s transit of Leo that will begin in July 2026. You come into closer touch with your emotional renewal needs now. It’s probably best to defer the bigger choices and decisions to a later date. While there can be times that you feel in limbo, you can take full advantage of this period for extra rest and introspection. Love becomes private somehow, or you find joy in different pleasures and pastimes. You might be keeping quiet about a relationship or your feelings.

With Uranus on its way out of your career and reputation sector, you’ll enjoy this planet’s lessons as well as look forward to more stability with these life departments. Discovering your true calling comes more organically now. Friendships will be going through some changes, offering the potential for new connections and alliances. Similarly, partnerships also transform this year and in upcoming years, presenting opportunities for new and exciting collaborations. Someone you didn’t like in the past can become an ally, showing the potential for transformation in relationships. Resolutions of a long-standing problem in a relationship can figure strongly, bringing a sense of not only closure but also personal growth.

Attention to your daily affairs in recent years has sometimes been limiting, but you’re coming out of that phase, freeing you up for more interesting and even frivolous experiences from time to time. Still, developing more order or discipline with your outside interests, education, or sharing can be a rewarding path.

This Year in Love: Leo

2025 Love Horoscope for Leo

There are key changes in your solar chart in 2025 that suggest new attitudes and needs concerning committed partnerships, dear Leo, with Pluto now fully transitioned into the role of long-term guest in your partnership sector.

Uranus rules your solar chart’s partnership sector, and it’s in Taurus and your career/reputation sector again this year, but only part-time. This trend has been with you for years and will leave for good in April 2026! It has tied partnerships with business and career goals, making meeting and pairing up with a partner through your career, business, or larger life goals a real possibility.

This year, Uranus begins its transition into your sector of dreams, friends, hopes, ideals, and wishes. and it’s forming some easy aspects as it does. This move points to lively, unusual, and exciting friendships. It can also point to disruptions and unreliability in your social life, as well as off-and-on friendships. However, you’re expecting more friendliness and communication from partnership. Partnering up with a friend is even possible with this shift.

Pluto has been dipping its toes into your partnership sector and is now in this area of your solar chart for the long haul. In the last two years, these transitions suggested your needs from–and experiences with–one-to-one partnerships were in flux. Now, you’re expecting different things as your needs from others change. You’re also ridding your life of superficialities in your close relationships…cont’d
