Leo horoscope 2027 The total eclipse of 2 August in your sign.

The year in brief: your seventh, fourth and ninth houses

Your seventh house, Aquarius, carries the year's strongest emphasis on partnership, close bonds and open disagreements. Pluto remains there, the lunar nodes place the North Node there, and two eclipses bring turning points into view. The fourth house, Scorpio, also draws attention to home, family and the roots that shape your choices. The ninth house, Aries, keeps travel, study, belief and publishing in focus, with Saturn and Neptune there throughout the year.

Leo is a fixed fire sign, traditionally ruled by the Sun. That solar rule gives the year a recurring rhythm of attention and renewal, while the house emphasis asks how personal aims meet other people's needs and how your foundations support both. The year's defining event is the total solar eclipse in your first house, Leo, on 2 August. It places beginnings, self-presentation and the direction you choose for yourself at the centre of the story. Treat the sky as a prompt for reflection: notice where a fresh start feels meaningful, and where a conversation or a change at home deserves more care.

Work and money: Jupiter enters your second house on 26 July

Jupiter enters your second house, Virgo, on 26 July, bringing money, possessions and personal values into a broader conversation. Jupiter is in your first house, Leo, until 26 July, a period traditionally associated with confidence and room to reconsider how you present yourself. As Jupiter moves into the second, it can be useful to review income, spending and what you consider worth your time. Expansion is not the same as a guarantee; keep plans grounded in the numbers you can see.

Your tenth house, Taurus, concerns career and public standing. The Sun enters Taurus on 20 April. This is a useful moment to take stock of responsibilities and the kind of recognition that feels substantial. Mercury enters Taurus on 24 April, supporting practical conversations about goals, roles or terms. Venus enters Taurus on 14 May, inviting attention to ease and rapport at work. Mars enters Virgo on 14 May, your second house, adding urgency around earnings and priorities. A deliberate budget or a clear rate for your work can help channel that drive.

Your sixth house, Capricorn, covers routines, service and daily upkeep. Mars enters Capricorn on 25 November, your sixth house, bringing a more active tone to tasks and workload. Saturn is in your ninth house, Aries, until 13 April 2028, so professional choices may sit alongside longer study, travel or publishing commitments. Consider which routines support those commitments and which simply consume time. Small, repeatable adjustments are more useful than trying to overhaul everything at once.

Love and close bonds: the annular eclipse in your seventh house on 6 February

The annular eclipse in your seventh house, Aquarius, on 6 February puts partnership and close bonds in a reflective spotlight. It can mark a point to consider what reciprocity looks like, how agreements are working and where an honest difference needs room. The penumbral lunar eclipse in Aquarius on 17 August revisits that relationship territory, while Pluto remains in your seventh house all year. Pluto's long presence is traditionally read as a deepening of the questions around trust, influence and shared decisions. The North Node is also in Aquarius, with the South Node in your first house, Leo, all year: the contrast invites reflection on the balance between self-direction and connection.

Venus enters Aquarius on 1 March, your seventh house, and again on 19 December, offering two windows to give attention to affection, fairness and the pleasure of meeting one another halfway. The eighth house, Pisces, concerns shared money, debt and intimacy. Mercury turns retrograde on 9 February in your eighth house, then enters Aquarius moving backward on 18 February, your seventh house; it turns direct on 3 March in Aquarius. Take time to revisit assumptions around shared resources or private conversations. Venus enters Pisces on 26 March, your eighth house, encouraging tenderness and candour around what is shared.

The fifth house, Sagittarius, speaks to romance, children, play and creative work. Venus enters Sagittarius on 7 January and again on 1 November, bringing warmth to pleasure and expression. Make room for enjoyment without treating it as a substitute for clear communication. This year's eclipses fall in your first, second, sixth and seventh houses, not your fifth or eighth. Jupiter is in your first and then second houses, while Saturn stays in your ninth, not these relationship and romance houses. These placements offer context, not a verdict on any bond.

Dates here: 6 February, 9 February, 17 August

Growth: Saturn in your ninth house all year

Saturn is in your ninth house, Aries, all year, asking for a thoughtful approach to study, travel, belief and publishing. Saturn is retrograde from around 9 August to around 24 December, a stretch suited to reviewing a course of study or the assumptions behind a long-term plan. Saturn turns direct around 24 December. Neptune is also in your ninth house all year, lending imagination to questions of meaning while making it useful to distinguish a compelling idea from a workable one. Neptune turns retrograde around 9 July and direct around 15 December. Let curiosity and fact-checking share the same desk.

Your eleventh house, Gemini, concerns friends, groups, hopes and future plans. Uranus is there all year, bringing an unsettled, experimental quality to social ties and collective projects. Uranus turns direct on 8 February, then retrograde on 15 September. Uranus retrograde from around 10 September 2026 to 8 February gives way to a fresh review of what you want from your networks; later, the September station invites another look at which plans still fit. The North Node in your seventh house and South Node in your first house keep cooperation and self-definition in conversation. Your twelfth house, Cancer, is associated with retreat, rest and what stays private. Make quiet time part of your planning, without assuming it has to produce an answer.

Dates here: 8 February, around 9 July, around 9 August, around 24 December

Home and family: Mars enters your third house on 15 July

Mars enters your third house, Libra, on 15 July, bringing extra momentum to messages, short trips and conversations with siblings or neighbours. A brisk pace can be useful, but listening closely may matter as much as making your point. The Sun enters Libra on 23 September. It brings attention to everyday exchanges and the local ties that keep life connected. The Sun enters Scorpio on 23 October. It turns the focus toward home, family and the history beneath present choices.

Mercury enters Libra on 3 September, your third house, making it a natural time to sort correspondence or clarify plans. Mercury enters Scorpio on 27 September, your fourth house, bringing household discussions and family matters into sharper focus. Mercury turns retrograde on 7 October in your fourth house, then enters Libra moving backward on 16 October, your third house. Mercury turns direct on 28 October in Libra. Mercury enters Scorpio again on the night of 9 to 10 November, your fourth house. In these revisiting periods, allow extra room to check details and hear how others remember an issue. A written plan for a household task or a calmer conversation can make shared responsibilities easier to name.

Dates here: 7 October, 23 October

Body and energy: the total eclipse in your sign on 2 August

The total solar eclipse in your first house, Leo, on 2 August puts beginnings and self-direction in focus. Read it as an invitation to reflect on the pace and habits that help you feel present in your own life, rather than as a prediction about your body. The Sun enters Leo on the night of 22 to 23 July. This begins your solar season, a natural point to review how you are using your time and attention.

Your sixth house, Capricorn, covers routines, workload and daily upkeep. The Sun enters Capricorn on 22 December. It brings the year back to practical questions of schedule, service and sustainable effort. The penumbral lunar eclipse in Capricorn on 18 July also highlights this area, while Mars enters Capricorn on 25 November, stirring activity around tasks. Jupiter is in your first house until 26 July, then shifts to your second; neither placement dictates a particular outcome. Try a modest review of your workload: what deserves a regular slot, what can be simplified, and where rest belongs in the plan.

Dates here: 18 July, the night of 22 to 23 July, 2 August
