Leo yearly horoscope · 2026

2026 · UTC

For this reading, Leo is the 1st house, with the other solar houses counted from it; this is a general framework, not a personal birth chart. The year opens with Mars at 12°41′ Capricorn in your 6th house, alongside Venus and the Sun there, while Jupiter at 21°21′ Cancer is retrograde in your 12th. The emphasis may lean towards the rhythms of everyday responsibilities and the value of quieter reflection. Uranus at 27°56′ Taurus in your 10th house turns direct at 27°27′ Taurus on February 4, a station meaning an apparent pause before changing direction. This shift may bring greater attention to how you approach public roles or long-term aims. Saturn at 26°10′ Pisces and Neptune at 29°30′ Pisces begin in your 8th house; Saturn sextile Uranus, an aspect of opportunity through cooperation, is exact on January 20 at 26° Pisces and 27° Taurus.

Mars enters Aquarius, your 7th house, on January 23, and meets Pluto there on January 27 at 3° Aquarius. A conjunction means two planets occupy the same degree area; Mars-Pluto may intensify questions of balance, boundaries, and shared effort. Neptune enters Aries, your 9th house, on January 26, followed by Saturn on February 14. Saturn conjunct Neptune is exact on February 20 at 0° Aries: the conjunction may blend structure with ideals around learning, beliefs, or wider horizons. Uranus in Taurus and Pluto in Aquarius remain in their respective houses as the year unfolds; Pluto stations retrograde at 5°30′ Aquarius on May 6, then direct at 3°04′ Aquarius on October 16. A retrograde station is an apparent reversal that can make a theme feel more inward or revisited. Saturn sextile Pluto is exact on March 28 at 5° Aries and Aquarius, while Mars sextile Pluto follows on April 16 at 5° Aries and Aquarius.

Mars moves through Pisces, your 8th house, from March 2, then enters Aries on April 9 and Taurus, your 10th house, on May 18. Its square to Pluto is exact May 26 at 5° Taurus and Aquarius; a square is a tense angle that may highlight competing priorities between public aims and one-to-one dynamics. Uranus enters Gemini, your 11th house, on April 26, shifting the emphasis towards groups, networks, and future plans. Mars enters Gemini on June 28, and its trine to Pluto is exact July 5 at 4° Gemini and Aquarius. A trine is a flowing angle, and this one may support more direct coordination between collective plans and important partnerships. Uranus sextile Neptune is exact July 15 at 4° Gemini and Aries, followed by Uranus trine Pluto on July 18 at 4° Gemini and Aquarius.

Jupiter enters Leo, your 1st house, on June 30, bringing a broader emphasis to self-expression and personal direction. Jupiter trine Neptune is exact July 20 at 4° Leo and Aries, an alignment that may encourage imaginative confidence; Jupiter opposite Pluto arrives the same day at 4° Leo and Aquarius. An opposition brings two sides into contrast, so growth in self-definition may sit alongside the need to take another person’s perspective seriously. Neptune sextile Pluto is exact July 25 at 4° Aries and Aquarius, and again September 16 at 3° Aries and Aquarius. Neptune turns retrograde at 4°25′ Aries on July 7 and direct at 1°36′ Aries on December 12; Saturn turns retrograde at 14°44′ Aries on July 26 and direct at 7°55′ Aries on December 10. These stations may mark a period of reviewing the ideas, commitments, or long-range plans associated with your 9th house.

Mars enters Cancer, your 12th house, on August 11, then Leo on September 28, and Virgo, your 2nd house, on November 25. Jupiter turns retrograde at 27°01′ Leo on December 13, suggesting a quieter review of its emphasis on your identity and presence. Uranus turns retrograde at 5°41′ Gemini on September 10; its trine to Pluto repeats on November 29 at 3° Gemini and Aquarius. Across the year, the new and full moons move through your solar houses, from a January full moon at 13° Cancer in the 12th to a December full moon at 2° Cancer in the 12th, with the intervening lunations drawing attention in turn to self, relationships, work, community, and other areas.

What a Sun-sign horoscope is, and is not

• General: it reads the sky the same way for everyone born under Leo.
• It uses solar houses: Leo itself is the 1st house, the next sign the 2nd, and so on. This is a convention for Sun-sign readings; it is not your house system.
• It is not about you in particular. It does not know your birth time, rising sign or Moon sign.
• It describes what the sky is doing. It does not predict events and gives no health, money or legal advice.
• All dates and times are UTC.
