Venus enters Leo today and begins a new chapter of its cycle there. The Moon is in Taurus, near its last quarter, shrinking toward new.

What does the Sun or Moon in Leo mean?

Leo is a fixed fire sign ruled by the Sun, and it reads as the wish to put something of your own into the world and stand behind it with your name attached.

The Sun is at home in Leo and passes through for about a month, roughly late July into late August. A Leo Moon lasts about two and a half days and reads warmer and more theatrical: generous, a little dramatic, quietly hoping to be noticed.

Fixed means it commits. Fire means it works on warmth and confidence rather than caution. The cost is that pride can make a small correction feel like a large insult, and choosing to take the note anyway is the interesting part.

Tropical Leo is the stretch of the zodiac roughly one hundred and twenty to one hundred and fifty degrees past the March equinox, which places it in high summer in the north.
