This Week's Move

Harness your amplified courage and drive from the Mars-Jupiter conjunction to initiate personal projects or clarify your deepest emotional needs.

Nov 9 – Nov 15, 2026

Leo This Week: Inner Fire Awakens

Leo, prepare for a week that ignites your inherent fire and propels you towards significant personal transformation. The early part of the week, with the Moon traversing your domestic sector in Scorpio, encourages deep introspection and a focus on your emotional roots. You might feel a strong pull to revisit family matters or solidify your personal foundations, setting the stage for new beginnings.

By midweek, your natural ambition and drive surge dramatically as action-oriented Mars forms a powerful conjunction with expansive Jupiter. This potent alignment directly energizes your Sun, imbuing you with immense courage and optimism. It’s an ideal time to tackle ambitious projects or assert your leadership. However, with Mercury still retrograde in Scorpio, ensure your communications, especially around home or shared resources, are clear and patient. The week culminates with the New Moon in Scorpio on Friday, offering a fresh slate to redefine your sense of security and belonging.

The weekend brings a shift as the Moon enters fellow fire sign Sagittarius, lightening the mood and inspiring creative expression and adventure. While Venus retrograde in Libra continues to prompt a re-evaluation of your relationships, the overall energy encourages bold steps forward in areas close to your heart.

That’s the sky every Leo shares. Your Moon, rising and the houses it lights up make it yours — get your personalized reading.

Love & Relationships

fair

Venus retrograde in Libra continues to prompt a re-evaluation of your relationships and personal values; approach romantic discussions with patience as you deepen emotional bonds under the Scorpio Moon.

Career & Finance

good

Your professional ambition is significantly boosted by the Mars-Jupiter conjunction, supporting leadership and new initiatives, though Mercury retrograde advises careful review of shared financial agreements or contracts.

Health & Wellness

excellent

You'll feel a significant boost in energy and drive, but the Moon's square to your Sun earlier in the week suggests emotional fluctuations, so prioritize grounding activities and clear communication to manage mental stress.

This week’s sky for Leo

The November 9 New Moon resets your fourth house of home, though Mercury is retrograde there and Venus is retrograde in your third house. Delays and miscommunications finally lift when both planets turn direct on November 13. Focus on clearing out physical clutter and organizing household files before making major domestic purchases.

  • New Moon in Scorpio · Nov 9

    Domestic life calls for an honest reset as the Sun and Moon meet for a New Moon in your 4th house. Because Mercury is retrograde in this same sector, bypass major property moves, lease signings, or family ultimatums for now. Instead, clear stagnant energy by repairing a broken fixture or settling an old misunderstanding with a relative. Focus on making your private living space feel secure, grounded, and genuinely restorative from the inside out.

  • Mercury Direct · Nov 13

    Domestic logjams start untangling as misunderstandings under your roof begin to clear. Mercury turns direct in your 4th house after backtracking since October 24, restoring momentum to delayed home repairs, real estate paperwork, and stalled family discussions. Decisions about your living space no longer feel trapped in limbo as household communication straightens out. Call a relative or landlord to finalize the domestic arrangements you put on hold during the retrograde.

  • Venus Direct · Nov 13

    Strained conversations with neighbors or siblings finally untangle as Venus turns direct in your 3rd house. Lingering social awkwardness or misunderstandings that arose in October melt away, restoring harmony to your daily exchanges and local routine. Now that Venus resumes forward motion, send a warm text or make a quick phone call to smooth over recent friction with a sibling or close neighbor.

From the guide to the week of November 9

Next week for Leo · Nov 16 – Nov 22

The week of November 16 brings a steady, integrative pace. A conjunction between Mars and Jupiter in your 1st house on November 16 bolsters your individual stamina. On November 22, your ruler, the Sun, crosses into your 5th house, brightening creative leisure. Put this warm focus to work by setting aside an afternoon for a personal craft.

Week of November 16 for Leo

About Leo

Leo is the radiant performer of the zodiac — warm, magnetic, and born to shine. As a fixed fire sign ruled by the Sun, the very center of our solar system, Leo carries a natural gravity that draws others into its orbit. Symbolized by the lion, this is a sign of pride, courage, and big-hearted generosity, happiest when expressing itself creatively and being truly seen. Leos lead with confidence and loyalty, championing the people they love with fierce devotion and unmistakable charisma. That same need for recognition can tip into ego, drama, or a bruised sense of pride when admiration runs dry. They can be stubborn and crave the spotlight a little too much. But few signs are as generous, loyal, or genuinely warm. At their best, Leo turns confidence into inspiration and lights up every room it enters with sincere, sunlit warmth.

Leo in Love

In love, Leo is romantic, passionate, and gloriously generous, treating their partner like royalty and expecting devotion in return. They court boldly and love grandly, with affection that is warm, loyal, and impossible to miss. A Leo needs to feel admired and appreciated, and they thrive with a partner who is proud to stand beside them. Give them genuine attention and loyalty, and they will pour their whole sunlit heart into the relationship.

Leo in Career

Leo flourishes in roles that put them center stage: entertainment, leadership, creative direction, teaching, and any field that rewards charisma and bold vision. They are natural motivators who inspire teams and rise to the occasion when the stakes are high. Leos need recognition for their work and chafe in roles where their contributions go unseen. Give a Leo a stage and an audience, and their confidence and creativity carry them far.

Leo and Health

Leo rules the heart, spine, and upper back, making cardiovascular health and good posture key wellness themes. Their vitality runs high but depends on feeling appreciated; a Leo starved of recognition can lose their spark. Joyful, expressive movement — dance, performance, play — feeds them more than grinding routine. Protecting the heart, both literally and emotionally, keeps this sun-ruled sign glowing.

Leo Compatibility

  • Leo & Aries — Two fire signs whose shared passion and boldness create an exciting, energetic bond.
  • Leo & Sagittarius — A warm, adventurous match built on optimism, fun, and mutual admiration.
  • Leo & Gemini — Gemini's wit keeps Leo entertained while Leo's warmth draws curious Gemini close.
  • Leo & Libra — Libra's charm and grace beautifully complement Leo's flair for romance and drama.
