Leo season is officially here, which means that things are starting to fire up for the zodiac’s boldest sign.
From July 23rd to August 22nd, the season welcomes a renewed energy and confidence, but don’t be surprised if this year’s most significant event – Uranus in Gemini – throws a spanner in the spiritual works.
Add in a cosmic overhaul courtesy of the corresponding mercury retrograde in leo and this season might just be your most significant, yet.
In Leo, Mercury is big, bold, and expressive. But when it’s retrograde, that confidence can tip into confusion. Think: spontaneous declarations of love you immediately regret, oversharing in the group chat, or receiving attention that doesn’t feel entirely… welcome. But that’s not all this season brings.
Below, we share everything you need to know about this star sign and what the next month looks like for you.

What Are The Personality Traits Of Leos?

Leos are known to be confident, bold and natural leaders. This star sign likes to be the centre of attention and desires to be loved and admired by those around them. Represented by the lion, leos are brave and incredibly loyal, while falling under a fire sign also means they’re passionate and intense.
At their best, Leos are magnetic, brave and strong leaders. At their worst, this star sign can be egotistical, dramatic and arrogant.
Which Signs Are Most Compatible With Leos?
Often energetic and loud, a Leo needs a partner who is able to match or subdue their boisterous nature.
Leos tend to gravitate towards other fire signs, such as Aries and Sagittarius, however, they can also find passion with a fellow Leo – if they’re willing to compromise to avoid a power struggle.
A Libra is also considered a good match, as they have the ability to balance out a Leo’s need for attention, instead smothering them with love and rationality.
Which Signs Are The Least Compatible With Leos?
When it comes to the least compatible matches, leos struggle to find compatibility with the considered Taurus while Scorpios can find Leos dramatics over the top.
What Does Leo Season Mean For Other Signs?
Leo is the only star sign ruled by the sun. During Leo season, the sign’s bright and radiant energy may encourage you to banish your imposter syndrome, embrace your passions and feel more confident in yourself.
It’s also the perfect time to put your projects out into the world and express yourself authentically – a purposeful shift that you just be might be rewarded for.
