Now that’s more like it, Leo! You’ll soar (make that roar) into June riding high, even if you’re navigating some turbulence from May’s eclipse season. Your natural optimism is returning to its irrepressible levels. For that you can thank lucky Jupiter, which bounded into your no-limits ninth house on May 10 for the first time since 2011. After an intense start to the year—which may have felt a lot more private and insular than your usual M.O.—that Leo radiance will meet the world as its oyster. With the Sun in Gemini and your social eleventh house, your event-planning skills can be pressed into immediate service.
Save the parades and sparklers until after June 3, when messenger Mercury will be wrapping up its three-week retrograde, a dodgy time for communication that also began on May 10. As Mercury corrects course, you’ll find a more receptive audience for your grand plans and visions. Got a giant splash to make? The June 14 Sagittarius full supermoon says “lights, camera, Leo!” when it beams into your head-turning, passionate fifth house.
The key changes a little after the June 21 solstice, when the Sun sinks into Cancer and your restful twelfth house. Spend the next four weeks tying up loose ends and conserving your energy for Leo season, which arrives on July 22. Relationship repair could also be in order for the next five months as structured Saturn and healing Neptune both turn retrograde in the most committed parts of your chart.
Note to Leo: Don’t try to do it alone! Saturn rules qualified experts while nurturing Neptune governs the empathic realm. Get recommendations from friends before you hire a therapist, advisor, consultant or the like. Think: A compassionate coach type who will tell it like it is but won’t beat you up for your past missteps. You don’t need to be coddled, but you DO deserve someone who will support you and cheer you on being your highest self. Hey, why not hold everyone in your life (including yourself) to that standard?
