Leo Weekly Horoscope

Emotions may surge like rogue waves on your personal emotion ocean starting this Thursday, March 27, as seductive Venus pivots out of Aries, where it’s been retrograde since March 1. Although the backspin doesn’t end until April 12, the love planet is now stealing through Pisces and your intense eighth house, a happier place for Venus in the zodiac. Some of the incoming feelings could be pleasurable, like a strong attachment to your love interest and a resurgence of a few steamy, erotic desires. But watch for lower-vibe reactions like anger or possessiveness. Since retrogrades rule the past, consider whether this current emotional state is the result of some unresolved hurt in your past. Rather than try to roll with these extreme inner undercurrents, try to get to the root cause. It won’t necessarily be straightforward, and turning to trusted confidantes—or healers—can help. 

On Saturday, communicator Mercury follows Venus’ lead. The messenger planet, which has been retrograde in Aries since March 15, slips out of your adventurous ninth house and back into dreamy Pisces and your erotic, intimate eighth. Shocker: This may take your forthright, confident sign by surprise. While a romantic connection could go from mild to wild, there may also be unexpected crossed signals and miscommunications, both of the verbal and, more frustratingly, the nonverbal kind. Even if craving commitment, hold off on saying or doing anything official until after April 7, when the messenger planets is back in forward motion.
