Leo 23
Jul - 22 Aug
YOUR YEAR AHEAD
Annual forecasts run from birthday to birthday. Every year around
the time of your birthday the Sun enters Leo, your Sun sign, and
your new yearly cycle begins.
Love - Singles:
While this promises to be a busy year socially, even for a Leo, you may find your popularity has its drawbacks, especially if you’re social commitments leave Cupid little time or room for manoeuvre. Make space in your social diary for the unexpected and unpredictable. You’re right to maintain high standards when it comes to love but be careful you’re not overlooking someone modest and unassuming who could turn out to be a surprise package, if given half a chance.Don’t judge a book by it’s cover.
Love - Couples
Your partner may have to deal with pressures that occasionally leave them tired and irritable. Money could be a source of tension especially if one of you does most of the earning while the other, most of the spending. Fortunately, you appear to be in an accommodating and compassionate mood, able to find the words to win your partner round. Whatever your stresses, make a point of regularly taking time out and away from your usual routine and socialising together.Be prepared to give your partner a little more slack.
Career
Be prepared to put yourself and your work in the spotlight more than usual. Great autonomy, independence and responsibility may come your way but be careful of taking on too much in your eagerness to please and impress. Try to be more patient when taking on the more technical aspects of your work because this area could take up more of your time and energy than anticipated. Avoid getting bogged down by contractual details and overly complicated working practices and procedures. Let others look after the small print while you deal with the bigger issues. There are also indications that you could find yourself dealing with more personal and emotional issues at work and for those Leo’s considering moving into the caring or healing professions, this could be the year.Be prepared to take a position of leadership or prominence that gives you a chance to shine.
Money
If you’re a typical Leo you enjoy the good things in life. However, if you’ve been living a champagne and Caviar lifestyle on a beer and crisps budget, and find the situation increasingly difficult to climb out of, it could be time to do something about it. Simply learning to say no occasionally while paying greater attention to discrepancies between your incomings and outgoings will work wonders. Some individuals you meet socially will be eager to invest in you and your dreams. Whether this is a good thing depends upon what you do with the resources put at your disposal. While caution is advised in property matters, the area of home, family or real estate could bring substantial benefits but, as in other matters, you’ll find it pays to be discreet.Look after the pennies and the pounds will look after themselves.
Family
Family, home and domestic influences appear to be mixed. The favourable influences will greatly outweigh the unfavourable if you avoid taking unnecessary risks while keeping upbeat and optimistic. An improvement in your living situation or environment is indicted but money, family and property could prove a tricky combination. Therefore, don’t overextend yourself where property, renting or home improvements are concerned. Those of you with children should put a little extra aside for a rainy day. Family reunions and get-togethers are well-starred and there may be an addition to the family to celebrate. A trip down memory lane could be a source of pleasure and bring an opportunity to re-establish relationships with family members who have drifted apart in recent years.
Be businesslike and sensible where home and family finances are concerned.
