Leo

leo1Janelle’s horoscope: Hey, little lion! This is a year of cultivating confidence, the kind of confidence that comes quietly from within without much fanfare or external adoration, which is generally more your speed.

Saturn in Sagittarius firmly plants itself in your fifth house of creativity, demanding that you take your talents seriously. Take advantage of Pluto, Mercury, and Venus in your sixth house of daily work and health for the first half of the month to create a daily routine that helps you build on your skillsets, hone your crafts and spend extra care on your health. Work can easily become play when it’s on something that you love and who does a Lion love more than themselves?!

Know that the more you commit to cultivating and refining yourself, the easier it is to attract friends and partners to join you on your level of talent & dedication.

The new moon stirs up energy in your house of partnership inviting new players into your life. Make sure you’re vibing positively so that you invite equally matched people to your court. Mars in Scorpio residing in your fourth house of home will dig up any unhealed emotional baggage that needs to be released, which ties in nicely with setting up a space for new friends and love interest-y type people to come into your life.

The full moon in your second house will give you a chance to settle into what you value. Virgo moon will find practical ways to make you feel good. Invest in material and nonmaterial ways to cultivate a healthy self-confidence. When you feel good about yourself deep down, you radiate the most brilliant light that others can’t help but flock to. That’s what being a royal is all about.

Dylan’s advice: It’s hard to imagine a more gorgeous setup for summoning who you are and how you want to grow into yourself than the one you have in the universe this month. It’s about bolstering your talents, moving past stifling behaviors, and becoming confident through knowing yourself and your worth as you go from zero to 100 real quick. You’re filling out your britches! (That’s an idiom, right?) Do you have plenty of colorful markers and sheets of paper? Good, because Leo—you could really benefit from some mapping this month. Grab stickers, too. Bonus points if they’re glittery! Making a mind map, just like the ones we’re taught to do in elementary school, is one of my personal favorite and most useful ways to process moments in my life. At this moment Leo, you are very much in the crosshairs of the intersections of your life: work, play, creativity, confidence, emotional health, and partnerships. Start here, with each item on that list in its own bubble. You know the rest—branch them out with bubbles that contain names of people, or goals, or places in your life, and the qualities that come with them. Draw lines to where these these things connect. Be honest, and include the bad with the good. You will be able to discover, as you draw, the root of what drives you. You can even do these maps for the past, present, and future. See what patterns and themes emerge.
