Leo Weekly Horoscope

A wicked case of FOMO could strike this week as restless Mercury paces back into Aries and your nomadic ninth house—its second tour here since last month’s retrograde. Just looking at friends' spring break Instagrams could get you fantasizing about pools with swim-up bars and plunging your pedicured feet into powder-soft, tropical sand. Set up fare saver alerts; price out Airbnbs and hotel packages. With Mercury whirring here until May 10, pushing that "book now" button could be a temptation too great to resist. (Spontaneous Coachella trip, anyone?) If you’re stuck at home base, make a point of connecting to people from different backgrounds instead of breezing by or assuming they don't want to talk to you. It's not hard: When you go out, skip the booth seats and perch at the bar. You never know who might order a meal—and strike up a convo—on the adjacent stool. Just be mindful of your messaging and your communication style. Since the ninth house rules uncensored communication, Mercury’s presence could evoke some "open mouth, insert statement sneaker" moments. Be your passionate self. Just try to imagine what effect it’ll have on your audience. Wait a beat before you fire off a retort, because it's easy to rush to conclusions or drown out the point the other party is trying to make.

The best news of the week comes on Friday! After a protracted slumber in Cancer that began on January 6, passionate Mars bolts out of your sleepy twelfth house and blasts into your sign for two whole months! The motivating planet slipped into Leo last November 3, but then, turned retrograde in your sign on December 6, which may have thrown a wrench in your exciting plans. Dust them off again because your second chance has arrived! With Mars strutting through Leo until June 17, it could feel like a red carpet has been rolled out just for you. Cat-walking will grant you instant head-turner status, AND it can turbocharge your personal passions and dreams. You’re on fire, Leo, and this could be one of your most magnetic cycles of the entire year. Your future success is worth investing in, so research trainings, advanced programs and other ways to align current you with the future vision. Mars doses you with fearlessness and supports calculated risks. Your role is bringing vision and committed action together, and with both of those forces, you WILL magically attract the supportive people you need to take your next steps.
