Your Weekly Horoscope: One Sign Rules Them All

July 22 – July 28, 2019

Ruling planets, that is. Leo is taking over people.

Monday starts off with the sun moving into this characteristic sign, beginning Leo season: a four-week phase that’ll encourage us to promote and present ourselves in the best light possible.

With Mars (planet of passion) already in the fiery sign of the Lion, people may have more confidence in general, which can encourage carrying out key tasks with great authority.

Mercury (planet of communication) in its retrograde phase (which, by the way, is also in Leo) merges with Venus (planet of love) midweek, which is an excellent opportunity to talk things over. If there has been a minor fallout, this transit can help get things back on track.

For everyone, Thursday will be a day to make steps forward. Energy may be high as feisty Mars aligns with Jupiter (planet of luck) on this day, making us all feel a little bolder.

Finally, luscious Venus moves into Leo on Saturday, bringing a total of three planets in this theatrical sign: Mars, Mercury, and Venus. This could bring passions, communication, and a showy attitude to the forefront. A change of image or makeover can be a good way to stand out from the crowd.

Here’s how the (Leo-centric) planets will affect your sign.

Oof, that bank account though. With Mars in this zone and Venus joining over the weekend, maybe it’s time to shift your priorities? While you might be aware that spending isn’t a good idea right now, you may still have the impulse to over-indulge. (It’s not the right time to enjoy that random, luxurious dinner, Cancer.) Lastly, get ready for an awesome opportunity to head your way on Thursday.

Well damn if this isn’t the week of your life, amiright? With all three planets in your sign by Saturday, you’ll find that the next few weeks will give you the platform you need to seriously show your best self. This is the time for your showstopping side to come out and play. But don’t get too far ahead, as the middle of the week will first ask you to have a needed conversation.

Virgo (August 23 – September 22)   

Unfortunately, Virgos are not having as much of a ball as Leos these days. As we approach Virgo season, Mars travels through your spiritual sector, followed by Venus over the weekend, and these two together will really set a more reflective mood. It may not be easy to face what you’re being asked to acknowledge, but trust us—you’ll feel weightless once you release yourself from these emotional burdens.

On Thursday, it looks like you’ll catch an event that may turn out to be super successful for you. On this day, you’ll want to be noticed by the right people. The best tactic is to put all your effort into engaging with others to make sure this happens.

You know you’ve been putting a lot of work into your career lately. But your energy may be draining, Scorpio.

Lastly, you face a decision at the end of the week; the choice you make could turn out to be a very lucrative one.

Being an adventure-driven Sagittarius, you bet you’re the first one to pack bags for a trip. And that’s the energy you’ll be channeling this week with Mars and the sun in your section of far horizons. This week isn’t just about moving beyond the boundaries, though.

Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)        

While you’re not typically one to accept change, Capricorn, you do welcome it with open arms this week. And it’s probably a good thing because you’re being asked to dive deeper into your tendency toward less positive emotions (such as resentment) and how they’re impacting your relationships. Lastly, as Venus heads into a sensitive zone in your chart, a budding romantic relationship could actually take a more serious turn.

Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)

The sun moves into your sector of relating on Monday which should kick off a goal to work with others on projects as opposed to alone. Tap into those friendly vibes, Aquarius. Mercury and Venus make an interesting tie in your lifestyle zones midweek, which could inspire you to change up your daily habits. A social event that’s happening on Thursday will bring something super exciting your way. Don’t miss it!
