Today's Leo Horoscope from Cafe Astrology

December 27, 2024

You can begin the day quite content to settle in, dear Leo, but the day advances with a growing desire to shake things up. Indeed, a rebellious streak can be with you, and it can throw you a bit off course. Avoid making hasty decisions, keeping in mind that reactions may not last long. However, your interactions and conflicts position you to see where your life may have fallen out of balance. Today's focus should be on new relating patterns rather than falling back on dysfunctional ones. You're doing things a bit differently these days, and while you're heading toward improvements, there can be some stops and starts. It may be better to avoid acting on whims, as emotions stirring today may be transient. The source of unrest is more deserving of your attention! What you want from the world (or a career) and what you want from your relationships may not seem to mesh well today, but you'll work this out, finding every reason to learn from the challenges and differences of the day.

The Astrology of Today – All Signs

Horoscope for All on Friday, December 27, 2024

Mercury first formed a lower square to Saturn on November 12th and then, while retrograde, returned to the square on December 6th. Early today, this aspect perfects for the final time.
We may have been swinging back to problems that first began in November, and we're now facing them with new information. Something communicated in the past can now come back for correction or refocus.
A Mercury-Saturn square can be grumpy, critical, and worried or fretting. We may speak/think negatively or expect the worst under this influence.
However, there can be a willingness to make sacrifices if it seems the best way to make improvements.
The Moon continues its transit of perceptive, intense Scorpio until 2:47 PM EST, when it heads into truth-seeking Sagittarius.
As the day advances, we approach a Venus-Uranus square that can present a potential challenge or struggle.
We can feel caged in and rebel against something that ties us down.
Values and tastes may clash, and social activities could suffer as a result. We may feel torn between wanting closeness and freedom. Impulsive attractions to people and/or material goods can lead us astray.
It's a time when people are inclined to make fashion statements or relationship ultimatums.
Some instability, restlessness, and rebelliousness are possible themes in our relationships.
It's best to hold off on decision-making regarding finances, as there is a tendency to act on a whim rather than reason. We might feel discontent with our current pleasures or pastimes, and a change may be satisfying.
It's a time to tame restlessness and avoid abrupt moves, but consider our needs for growth and a change of pace.
The Moon is void from 9:25 AM EST, with the Moon's last aspect before changing signs (a trine to Neptune), until the Moon enters Sagittarius at 2:47 PM EST.

December 2024 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Leo:

The sector of your solar chart that rules creativity, romance, entertainment, self-expression, and pleasure is in stronger focus in December, dear Leo. While the New Moon on the first of the month inspires new beginnings and fresh starts in these areas of life, Mercury's retrograde in the same sector, active until the 15th, pulls your attention to the past. In order to clear the way for a fresh start, you may need to take care of some unfinished business. Projects might be on hold until you finish up some important details. Motivation and enthusiasm may take a bit of a nosedive around the 6th. Try not to make new commitments until you are certain you have a handle on current ones.

Until the 7th, you might make beneficial connections through the pursuit of your work and health goals or because of a stronger interest in these things. It's a good time for personal enjoyment of projects, organizing, list making, watching your nutrition, and the like.

After the New Moon on the 1st, you can fee inspired, particularly on creative or romantic levels, although there can be some drama in the mix. It's a creative, interactive period for you, particularly with Mars in your sign, convincing you to go after what you want. This is a time for reconnecting with your "inner child." Ideally, you're feeling happier and freer. You're motivated to pursue your passions.

However, romantic relationships can be a little complicated, or you may be focused on a past connection. Those projects or relationships that have been holding you back from expressing your true, creative self may come under scrutiny.

In fact, Mars turns retrograde in your sign on the 6th. Watch that you don't book yourself solid early in the month, as there can be a change of heart or slowdowns occurring later. You may not feel like following through, or you simply can't. While Mars will be retrograde until February 23rd, it spends only the first four and a half weeks retrograde in Leo.

Certainly, you can be more introspective during this retrograde. It's not that you lack confidence, but you're more inclined to look within for answers. Questioning your plans is likely and, in fact, entirely necessary. The temptation to push ahead with personal plans is strong, but circumstances could have you feeling stuck.

Watch for temper tantrums as you'll be strongest if you tame impatience and work on projects that need fine-tuning or completion rather than adding more to your plate. Avoid dwelling on matters you can't control, even with buried frustrations emerging in unexpected ways. The tendency to stew and to let things get to you is strong. Some disconnects can occur but can also lead to greater understanding down the line. For now, try not to push matters (or others). Give them space, and give yourself space as well.

Venus visiting your partnership sector from the 7th onward can enhance and improve companionability and popularity. You'll find it mostly easy to harmonize with others. You're in good shape for enhancing and boosting a close relationship. This influence can mitigate some of the complications of Mars retrograde in your sign. You can be mainly focused on coming to a balance in a relationship, and negotiations are fair and prosperous. The secret to happiness seems to be balance and patience.

Still, the Venus-Mars opposition on the 11th to the 12th can be strong on you with Mars in your sign. Someone may be frustrated with you, and perhaps that person hopes you'll intuit what they truly want, but it can be difficult to pinpoint. Reactions can be strong now. Try to detach yourself emotionally just enough to stay calm and work things out, but not so much that others think you're mocking them. You can learn a lot about yourself from whatever is triggered now.

The Full Moon on the 15th can bring drama to your social life or feelings about friendship to bloom. This is a time for putting something negative behind you. It's also when information you've been waiting for begins to trickle in with the end of Mercury's retrograde.

The Sun heads into your work and health sector on the 21st, and energy is shifting towards taking care of business. You're moving into a period of increased focus on routines and health, and the New Moon on the 30th clinches it. You're motivated to start fresh with your daily affairs and routines.

The last week of the month/year also brings stronger faith in your intuition. While you’re not yet ready to jump into action, you are absorbing a tremendous amount from your environment. You feel better equipped mentally and emotionally to deal with issues that were buried or swept under the carpet. Connecting with someone over a shared ideal or belief is possible.

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
