Venus Moves Into Leo On July 12th: Here’s What To Know For Your Zodiac Sign
She’s beautiful, sweet, and bright. When the planet of love lands in the sign of Leo, our charisma and creativity are awakened. Here’s everything else we can expect between July 12 and August 5, 2024.
Roar! The first vacation departures have been launched, summer is well established. If the astral climate suggests some disruptions on the summer highway – the fault of Saturn, Neptune, and Mercury in retrograde – the rest of the planetary placements plunge us into a crazy atmosphere. In the coming weeks, it will be a question of navigating between the need to take responsibility in hand, the desire to change everything, and above all, the desire to please oneself. A big gap that can be explained in particular by the arrival of Venus in Leo. A practical guide to understanding everything.
IN 2024, VENUS IN LEO GIVES WAY TO A SURGE OF GENEROSITY
At least that’s what’s supposed to happen when the planet of love and charm meets one of the warmest astrological signs of the zodiac. Mutual aid, love at first sight, flirting. Venus in Leo is synonymous with “great loyalty of the heart”, as Chris Semet points out in “Astrologie” (ed. Hugo Poche). Each of us could feel like a liberation. The little attentions multiply, and the passion is reborn even more beautifully. Venus in Leo is exalted, fiery, and creative. The planet of love thus offers us a powerful ego boost, marked by the desire to listen to our instincts, to create surprises, and above all: to live each moment as intensely as possible. We fight for our ideals, we defend our place, we fight for what we consider to be our values. In short, we stand together.
In our private lives, this can translate into the desire to commit, to move up a gear, or simply to spice up everyday life by getting closer to the other person. In a relationship, we seek to please. When we are single, our charm and power of attraction are increased tenfold. From a social point of view, the dates come one after the other. Everyone is in the mood to party and wants to feel like they are part of a whole. Forces (re)unite. “The social scene excites you, you like to entertain your friends sumptuously and theatrically,” explains Kris Brandt Riske, MA in “The Great Guide to Astrology” (Arcana Sacra ed.). There is romance in the air, a hint of drama (queen), and a “carpe diem” spirit that invades us. It’s exhilarating! Just be careful not to give in to ego wars and not to feel overwhelmed by this excess of energy.
HOROSCOPE: WHY VENUS IN LEO COULD MAKE US EARN A LOT OF MONEY?
In his book, astrologer Kris Brandt Riske, MA, looks at the other, lesser-known side of Venus. It is not just the planet of love, but it also has a (more or less positive) influence on our budget. This is why with Venus in Leo, we can expect some nice surprises on the financial front. “You have the desire and determination to earn a high salary that can meet your taste for luxury. Money matters generally go your way, but you should exercise caution and common sense.” In other words: Venus in Leo can awaken our desire to defend our know-how. It pushes us not to “sell ourselves cheap”, to believe in what we think is right, and this also involves a good salary. But if this can generate promotions or bonuses, we will have to be careful not to spend too much on anything superficial. As we know, Leo loves beauty, luxury and light. Beware of excess, once again!
