Leo Weekly Horoscope

Existing relationships come up for review on Sunday, as complexifying Pluto turns retrograde in Aquarius and your seventh house. Until October 13, this may throw your committed partnerships (even the potential ones) under the microscope. Some of your closest ties could hit a rough patch. The thing NOT to do is go into denial. See this as the blessing that it is: A chance to clear out stagnant energy and, ideally, rebuild on rock-solid ground. Conflicts are a normal part of life, so if anger or resentment come up for you, face it squarely and explore its roots. Pluto rules the underground and hidden parts of life. That includes feelings that you may project onto another person, when the real power comes in owning them yourself.  If you catch yourself pointing fingers, it could be a cue to look in the mirror.

The trick is to recognize what's going on and nip that Pluto-tinged vengeance in the bud—BEFORE it has a chance to erupt into a full-on bonfire. Rather than leak energy obsessing over an ex, either resolve to walk away or give it a proper go. It's worth your while to figure out what it is about this person that has you in its thrall. Helpful hint: Pluto can be lusty, so maybe it's not the WHO in the situation but the WHAT. If it's just the way they make you feel (e.g., sexy and desired) but you know they're trouble, enjoy the innocent exchanges and use them for fantasy fodder instead of pursuing a complicated relationship. Power-agent Pluto reminds you that you don't have to get that kind of validation from someone else. There are ways to ignite your own fire—dance classes, sensuality workshops, boudoir shoots. Business partnerships are susceptible to the same tension now, so make sure wherever they're heading, you're taking the high road.
