Romance is taking centre stage, as Venus in Leo gives you the confidence to love freely and the courage to speak with your heart. After Venus's stay in Cancer the last few weeks, the planet of love is heating up areas of romance, pleasure, and affection as it links up with fierce Leo on 25th of August.
Leo, the fifth sign of the zodiac, highlights our self-confidence and self-expression as well as the romantic relationships that bring great pleasure to our life. As Venus makes her home-stay in this fixed sign, “love at first sight” might feel like a common theme in your dating world. The more confident and self-assured we are in ourselves, the closer we get to attracting partner(s) who meet our expectations. During this time, we’ll probably find ourselves attracted to partners who bring out our inner child and who you can just have fun with—say yes to casual dates and getting to know those who make you laugh and smile.
We may be feeling more passionate, warm-hearted and demanding. Also, there will be a strong need for love, to be admired, to crave physical touch, compliments, and gifts. Be wary of feeding into the ego energies of seeking external validation. It's important we don’t rely on others to fill the void. Fill yourself up with love, compliments, and treat yourself to little gifts.
Take the time to appreciate yourself, bring some new self care rituals into your daily routine – positive affirmations, mirror work, or a love letter to yourself. Our ability to express our love & feelings more confidently and boldly will be on the increase as well as a need to be more honest with others and ourselves.
In relationships, we may be craving more excitement and playfulness, we’re over being so serious and ready to stir up some drama and excitement in our love lives.
Venus also rules finances, and when in Leo we can be a lot more generous with money. A great time to treat yourself, pamper yourself, treat yourself like the royalty you are! It’s a really good time to work on building up our own confidence. Also, knowing we are loved and worthy of love. Leo’s love to show off, and if you are in a relationship you may really feel called to shower your partner with love, affirmations and gifts.
With Venus in Leo, there will be a need to be really grand, bold and spontaneous, wanting to be the best and showing others how amazing you truly are. Sexual desires may also be on the increase and it may be more difficult to separate sex from love at this time. During this transit we really just want to feel loved and appreciated. Leo’s are also quite romantic, so it’s a great time to really spice up our love life with a bit of romance and new adventures.While the energy of a fiery, confident Leo values the importance of looks, make sure that whoever is seeking you is in it for the real you. Hot girl summer is not all about prioritising partners who can wine and dine you but rather those who can validate your deepest feelings while recognising that you are the prize. Venus in Leo wants you to know that you can have it all this summer, if you play your cards right!
We may be feeling a lot more demanding during this time wanting more affection, attention, devotion, loyalty and honesty. We want nothing but the best for ourselves and won’t stop until we get it. It’s a really great time to set boundaries and set your expectations as Leo’s won’t settle for anything less than fabulous. This transit will be quite powerful, encouraging us to love ourselves and others more passionately, affectionately and deeply.
Everyone knows that Venus in astrology is about love, but Venus is also about the things we value, and, by extension, about money. Leo energy is flamboyant, royal, generous and luxury-loving, so this Venus transit brings an urge to spend like there’s no tomorrow. Fortunately though, there is a tomorrow, so unless you have very deep pockets indeed, this can be a financially difficult transit – watch out for stretching your credit to the limit, and don’t try to use money to buy love or affection. The world simply doesn’t work like that.
Creatively, this astrological transit favours the arts, so artistic or creative hobbies are likely to bring a lot of joy. There’s a youthful vibe around Leo too, so don’t be shy about letting your inner child out to play. On the other hand, do keep a tight rein on your inner diva. A bit of showbiz glitter will lift all our spirits during these few weeks, but we can do without the showbiz tantrums to match.
Venus in Leo is an astrological transit which feels good – it’s a creative, warm-hearted, joyful vibe, so don’t take life too seriously. As a zodiac sign, Leo is happy and vibrant, and so it follows that this transit too brings a lot of vibrancy and life.
However, the flip side of Leo in astrology is a certain arrogance, pride and over-the-top attention-seeking. If you’re single, you might want to dial down the in-your-face nature of this transit; let others seek you out instead of your pursuing them. Within an established relationship, this astrological energy wants to be in charge, but you can’t both compete for the upper hand. Work hard on give and take and try to ensure that yours is a partnership of equals.
Here's how Venus in Leo may impact your zodiac sign and how you can harness the power of this pleasure-seeking transit.

CAPRICORN ♑
Capricorn is not known for displays of emotion, but during this Venus transit you’re much more likely to listen to your intuition and your inner self than normal. Use this more sensitive vibe to your advantage by choosing to forgive someone who has wronged you. It’s a very passionate and sensual few weeks to be in love, but it’s also important to keep a close eye on your finances. Venus here rules debt, and someone wants to be repaid.
Having boundaries with those you care about is extremely important. Over the next few weeks, you'll find a way to create limits with people without the drama that is associated with setting boundaries.

Who says Capricorns aren’t sexy? The sexual side of you is ready to come out and play. Casual sex takes on a whole new meaning for you as Venus in Leo offers an opportunity for you to deepen your relationship(s) through sexual intimacy. That said, be mindful of who you choose to rumble in the sheets with (safe sex is great sex!).

PISCES ♓
Venus brings her love and compassion to your co-workers during this transit, Pisces, smoothing over difficult relationships at work and maybe improving your working conditions a little bit too. However, Venus is the planet of indulgence, and Leo likes the finest of things, so watch out for overindulgence in food and drink during these few weeks. You’ll have a sensitive stomach, so it might be a good idea to detox.
You're feeling a little bit lazier than normal, which is fine because you're a hard worker in need of a break now and again. Implement self-care into your daily routine and enjoy this time to have serenity in your life. Learning to take a step back is crucial.
As your work life begins to pick up, you want a partner who understands a healthy balance between work and play. When it comes to dating, it’s important that you schedule and prioritise your dates accordingly—and you expect the same. Inconsistency and cancelling plans at the last minute are grounds to move on to the next person. By the way, a partner who takes care of their mental and physical health is a huge turn-on. Getting outdoors and planning dates that involve physical activity will be a great energetic release from your work life—have some fun!
