Leo
Born between: July 23rd - August 22nd
The Leo symbol is a lion and the attributes are mimicked by those born under the Leo star sign as they are proud, strong characters who are passionate leaders which unfortunately may be perceived as bossy.
Get your feelings out in the open and be affectionate. Make that phone call that you have been putting off. You can smooth over disagreements and iron out any of the wrinkles with friends or team mates at the moment. Your optimism and enthusiasm is very infectious now. You need a wider range of interests and to get out of your old habits in the days to come. Cautious colours are pistachio and melon. Lucky numbers are 26 and 62.
You are steering well clear of people who are likely to tie you down. This is a time of personal growth and new insights. There are better times to come if you allow yourself to let go of old fears. You certainly aren't short of courage at the moment, but there are those who may say you lack common sense. You can do things that maybe you wouldn't have dreamt of doing before. Lucky colours are walnut brown and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 28 and 44.
There are wonderfully uplifting influences around you today, Leo, but there is a slight danger of you becoming so filled with your own confidence, that you become self-righteous. Relationships with authority figures - ie: bosses, parents, teachers - will be good. They respect the way you are handling yourself, because you show good, solid judgement. It's obvious that you're not ploughing wildly into things that you haven't really thought through first. Favourable colours are sunflower yellow and cornflower blue. Lucky numbers are 4 and 3.
Don't be hypersensitive or over-react to other people's comments. You can get yourself worked up about things that are not as important as you think. Give yourself some space to wind down and be at peace with yourself, if you possibly can. Rather proud and dignified now, you're putting a good deal of emphasis on personal reputation. You will dislike more than usual being passed over for attention or praise at work. Calming colours are fire engine red and dark grey. Lucky numbers are 63 and 15.
Don't feel you're a martyr because your efforts are taken for granted. Give gladly, but rule number one: look after yourself, because you can't help others if you don't look after you. You need time out gorgeous Lion - yes, even you. Ask for advice from somebody you respect, because you really need it at the moment. Beneficial colours are gold and fawn. Lucky numbers are 32 and 78.
The Sun is in a positive aspect to Uranus now, and it's inspiring, challenging and lots of fun, so have fun!. The main thing to remember is you need to be yourself. There's no point in compromising: Mercury is now in aspect to Pluto, which is great for meaningful encounters. Be more aware of your thinking processes, how you put ideas into words, and especially how you come across with your viewpoints. Proper colours are graphite and treacle. Lucky numbers are 10 and 55.
Don't do things only for your own good. If you can work for the benefit of the group energy, then it will work well. Be prepared to put in the legwork and you will find at the end you've created something very solid. You have certainly no intention of being ignored now. You want to be given much more attention. Try to turn your growing creative talents to good use since your achievements will bring you all the acclaim you seek. Auspicious colours are peach and aqua. Lucky numbers are 19 and 17.
Today you have the capacity to intuitively understand the emotional situations that are around you, both at work and at home. You are able to pick up subtle hints and react in a sympathetic manner, but take care that you're not getting too close and losing your sense of perspective, in the process. Over the next few weeks, you'll be throwing your energy with lots of enthusiasm into team activities at work. Beneficial colours are dusky rose and lime. Lucky numbers are 13 and 10.
You should be earning more now, or finding that your prospects are brighter than they have been in the past. Make an effort to hang onto a little of it!

The energy around you stimulates your mind. Beneficial colours are gold and silver. Lucky numbers are 57 and 71.
You'll be disappointed if you expect miracles from other people. However, this just might happen with the planets behaving the way they are around you at the moment! If you can be realistic, as well as forgiving, an encounter turns out to be rather delightful. Your freedom- loving streak is making you wary of too much intimacy at the moment, and claustrophobic twosomes do not fit the bill. Make sure that people you love, understand that your detached manner at the moment is not a rejection of them. Celebratory colours are ice blue and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 20 and 57.
Focus on your working situation in a way that says 'I want more attention and recognition'. It means that you have to put your energy into doing things in a new and different way.

You're thinking and moving a lot faster than usual right now. The planetary influences put you in a fidgety kind of mood.

Lucky numbers are 14 and 70.
Co-operation is not so easy for you right now, Leo, but your enthusiasm is infectious so companions should rally round. This is the time to make long-term plans. Setting your goals is crucial.

Beneficial colours are dark tan and irish moss. Lucky numbers are 36 and 25.
Be sentimental, but don't hang on too tightly, or dig your heels in. Stand firm until you find the answers you are looking for, but then let go, roll with the flow.

Relaxing colours are cinnamon and sultana. Lucky numbers are 17 and 31.
You are really taking the trouble to speak as effectively as possible. Your ambitions are helped by these communication skills.

Passionate colours are scarlet and sapphire. Lucky numbers are 9 and 26.
You want new, fun people, stimulation, sparkle and some excitement, Leo. Thanks to erratic Uranus, you don't always know what's coming, so everything is off-the-wall and unpredictable.

Your circle is welcoming, and you will have no shortage of invitations or ports-of-call when you are out and about. Delightful colours are brown sugar and purple satin. Lucky numbers are 11 and 14.
You have a wonderful knack of putting others at their ease, Leo, so you are more than welcome wherever you go. You nevertheless need elbow room and won't put up with jealousy in any form.

If you try to be all things to all people, it won't work. As the Moon is full, you're too emotional about certain things, too close to whatever it is you're talking about.

Delightful colours are cumquat and cream. Lucky numbers are 22 and 63.
Nothing works out quite as you planned today, as you are low on energy. Wonderful dreams, Leo, but you also need to have your feet on the ground.

So resolve to be utterly realistic, especially where work partnerships are concerned. Realistic colours are pumpkin and ruby. Lucky numbers are 7 and 9.
With mischievous Venus now passing through your eleventh house, you are feeling friendly, laid back, detached and full of fun. You want space, freedom and independence in your social and emotional life, and really want a strong mate who is willing to let you go your own way. Where a loved one is concerned, you may be over-intense. Pluto in your house of romance deepens your feelings, bringing stronger passions, and perhaps a dose of jealousy. What a mixture! Appropriate colours are mauve and pastel shades. Lucky numbers are 12 and 17.
Money and security are the main things on your mind, Leo. It's well worth your while pushing yourself into doing boring things like the paperwork. Once you have that organised, not only will you feel better, you'll be able to spend with a clear conscience. At the moment you want everything at home and in your emotional life to be wonderful.
