Today's Leo Horoscope from Cafe Astrology
May 23, 2025
Early today, you could be in a hard-to-please mood, simply because you are not sure what it is that will satisfy you, dear Leo. If you've been pushing yourself too hard, you're likely to feel the energy drain now, and softening the tension can be a relief. If you don't listen to your body's signals to slow down, you could feel vaguely under the weather or especially sensitive. Focus on health, balance, and spirit now for the best results. As the day advances, your willingness to resolve problems comes to the fore. Whether you gain new insight into your desires or bond with someone important to you through an honest discussion, the focus is improving your life and committing to positive changes. The Moon's transit of your spirit sector all day intensifies your desire for forward movement, growth, and discovery.

The Astrology of Today – All Signs
Horoscope for All on Friday, May 23, 2025
The Moon spends the day in the sign of in-the-moment Aries, and we can be itching for something new.
- However, with today's Mars-Neptune minor square, we may believe the route to our desires is a roundabout one.
- There can be some disorganization or an urge to act upon an unrealistic fantasy or unusual impulse.
- It's hard to know what we want and where we're headed under this influence, and passive-aggressive behavior is possible, as we may not feel effective enough to take direct action or assert ourselves directly.
- It may be best to wait things out to see if a sudden feeling passes.
- Seeing holes or losing some confidence in our plans, desires, and pursuits can be more of a symptom of the need for a bit of inspiration or a well-deserved break than it is a sign that the plans are lacking.
- Of course, if there are flaws, adjustments may be necessary.
- Otherwise, we may need to rest or recuperate before pressing forward.
- On the other hand, Mercury forms a sextile to the North Node, and we might connect with information or people who encourage us to grow, improve, or move forward.
- The Moon aligns with Venus and harmonizes with Mars later today, easing our path, especially with the murkiness of Mars-Neptune in the rear view mirror.
- We want to start fresh and move on, and we have no interest in dwelling on the past. We can be excited about our personal plans.
- It's a time to tune into our initiative and independence.

May 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Leo:
The month ahead particularly supports broadening your horizons and branching out, dear Leo, perhaps through an expansion of your audience, adventure, or studies. A personal philosophy or belief system comes into stronger focus and more clarity. Where April was bumpy, blocks clear in May.
You’re also in a fine position to take charge of your work, manage others, take the lead, and make great strides towards your larger goals in May. You’re willing to put in the legwork and just the right amount of extra effort to shine--or outshine.
You can be quite headstrong and independent in May. While you have a strong sense of the rules, the enterprising side of your nature emerges powerfully this month, and you could find yourself challenging traditions.
You’re taking a well-rounded approach to life this month, which may be the key to your overall success. Activities with others keep you busy and motivated. Learning with study groups can be beneficial, or you might acquire new knowledge or gain inspiration from groups you connect with now. It's a powerful time to learn, guide, share, and connect--and to heal through these experiences.
Pluto's retrograde cycle from the 4th forward (until October) holds the potential for new discoveries and insights. It's a time to reassess one-on-one relationships and living conditions. You might review your feelings or examine whether you've been clinging to old patterns instead of braving new territory. The process of gaining more objectivity will help you identify areas where you’ve pushed too hard or where you’ve been too attached for your own good!
While you are likely to be doing a good job of balancing your personal and professional lives, if these areas are out of whack, the Full Moon on the 12th will point you in the right direction, whether this is via an event or personal epiphany. Home and family matters assume larger importance, and you might discover or connect with strong feelings about your living arrangements or family situation. This can be a wonderful time for reaching out to or spending extra time with family. It can also be a time for significant memories that help you make decisions in the present.
Mars is energizing your sign all month. There can be times when you clash with others, or circumstances seem to be resisting you, but overall, you’re raring to go, ready to take action. Lively energy is with you! This Mars transit is energizing – you’re ready to take on a challenge, and you’re interested in innovating, being the first, and getting ahead. Venus in a compatible sign attracts rather than pursues, so you have both yin and yang energies going for you now.
Some friendly competition can help inspire happy improvements. Business connected with art, music, and other creative ventures can prosper, or there can be the right timing with money and business. Mutually beneficial agreements, romance, increased confidence, and broadening your mind are in favor. Romantic possibilities are with you, possibly with someone with a very different background.
With Mars in Leo this month, you can be impatient with too much talk or long-drawn-out explanations. As long as you are determined to make the most of this period, it’s a great time for standing up for yourself and for new initiatives that require action and courage more than plans and deliberation. You can’t force confidence – confidence builds as self-mastery skills increase. This is why truly confident moves have wonderful results now, and rash or pushy moves seem to have consequences.
The Sun moves into your friendship sector on the 20th, spotlighting your social life and happiness goals. There can be the chance to start fresh on a social level after the New Moon on the 26th. The last week of the month particularly supports new interests and friendships or a new lease on an old friendship. Your enthusiasm wins others over, and your unique qualities and perspective give your personality extra sparkle.
Transits help clarify a matter about a friendship or a special project. You can be filled with excitement and anticipation about emerging new ideas for long-term plans and projects. Developing a friendly rapport with someone can be highly motivating. You’re independent this month, but you are wise enough to value the group and cherished friends’ input. Diplomacy has its distinct benefits.

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
