LEO MONTHLY HOROSCOPE - GENERAL
May 2025

2025 always promised to be a year of change and this year it is living up to that, with the major outer planets having already shifted or are preparing to shift. This is going to change the dynamics of the year itself and for you, during the transition, this will put you in a position where having the right work/life balance will be more important than ever. Because the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of May in your career sector, the solar spotlight is always on your career and professional situation, matters and options at this time of year. While held back by a retrograde phase Venus won’t return until early June, with Mercury here from 11th May to 26th May, it is looking like business as usual. Except, after six years Uranus, the planet that has kept things on track professionally is getting ready to leave in early July, bringing you to not just the most active months of this professional year on the career front, but the point that you have been working towards for years. This makes this a month where it will be important to have your professional hat on from the start. However, by the time Venus returns to your sector of adventure, travel, learning and discovery on 1st May Neptune, the planet of hopes and dreams has been here for a month and they are about to meet up for the first time here in 150 years. Venus is returning to fuel a desire for adventure just as Neptune is already starting to encourage big dreams. The game changer and what will lock this into place is Saturn’s return on 25th March, when for the first time in three decades and for the first time meeting up with Neptune here in our lifetime, will give you the resolve to do whatever it takes for as long as it takes in order to turn dreams into reality. This will put the planets here in close harmony with Mars, who in his first, last and only full month back in Leo, will be looking for something to channel his passions, drive, warrior and competitive spirit into. Mars will be just as happy channelling this into a passion for adventure as he will be into your professional passions, fighting and competitive spirit.

LEO MONTHLY HOROSCOPE - LOVE
May 2025

It was over the last weekend in April that a clash between Mars in Leo and Pluto in your relationship sector once again put a balance between your own and your relationship needs to the test, something that was unique for two reasons. The first is that Mars and Pluto will normally only clash once every two years, yet this is a repeat of the same clash in the New Year. The second is that for just the second time in our lifetime, this clash is happening here, with the first having been in early January. This is already separating and with it any personal and/or relationship tension this might have created. This opposition at the end of April and in the New Year are some of the two most challenging aspects of 2025 and not just for you or your relationships, but in general and they are now behind you. This is Pluto, the planet of change, transformation and rebellion’s first full year in your relationship sector and as he is here now until 2044, Mars will not only continue to clash every other year, but when the Sun, Mercury and Venus return each year, they will do the same. The difference is that they are not Mars and it was a clash between the planets of war and revolution that saw both came out fighting, Mars for your own and Pluto for your relationship needs. This is behind you now, but with Mars in Leo all month and Pluto turning retrograde in your relationship sector on 5th May, they will continue to keep an eye on each other and on that fine balance between your own and your relationship needs. The Moon will make its first visit to your communication sector since their clash from 8th May to 11th May, making this a valuable chance to get the communication lines open, with the Moon’s return to your relationship sector from 18th May to 20th May a valuable chance to check in. Meanwhile, while there is no planetary activity in your romantic sector, it will be to find Venus, the planet of love having returned to an adventurous part of your chart on 1st May. From 13th May to 20th May, this will see the spirit of romance and adventure spike.

LEO MONTHLY HOROSCOPE - MONEY
May 2025

On both sides of the financial fence, there is reason to move into the new month with confidence, helped in part by two separate alliances that are each supporting one side of the financial fence. A friendly aspect between the South Node in your income sector and Uranus in your career sector that began late last month won’t peak until 2nd May and they will remain tight for the first two weeks of the month. While there is no planetary activity in your income sector, with Mars returning next month and things already starting to heat up professionally, things are already starting to come together in preparation. The Moon will return to your income sector from 6th May to 8th May, something that every four weeks can sharpen your nose for money and act as a trigger. With the alliance between Uranus on the career and the South Node on the income front still locked into place at the time, these will be pivotal days on both fronts. Meanwhile, the month also begins with a friendly aspect between Saturn in your financial sector and the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment just starting to separate. With Venus, the planet of money leaving on 1st May, they have come together with the resolve and commitment to turn financial desires into resolutions. This is also the beginning of the end, for now of planetary activity on this side of the financial fence. After 13 years Neptune, the planet of hopes and dreams left at the end of March, the dwarf planet Ceres will end her last deep dive into your financial needs and priorities on 17th May and here since March 2023, Saturn will leave on 25th May. The Moon’s return from 21st March to 23rd May will ensure your financial instincts are sharp and you are emotionally and intuitively engaged during Saturn’s final days. Once Saturn leaves, until he and Neptune return to tie up some loose ends later in the year, this will leave your financial sector empty for the first time since 2010, giving Mars a clear run when he returns to your income sector next month.
