Why Leo Season 2025 Is Especially Potent
This Leo season arrives with the Sun blazing through its home sign while Mercury and Jupiter make bold moves that amplify our personal power and creative potential. With Mercury Retrograde starting in Leo (July 18–August 11), we’re being asked to rewrite our own narrative with more courage and flair. Jupiter in Cancer (until August 10) adds emotional intuition to our manifestations, while the Leo New Moon on August 1 is your golden gateway for attracting exactly what you desire—especially when you lead with heart.
Leo Season Dates: July 22 – August 22, 2025
