Leo Monthly Love Horoscope

Feeling hot, hot, hot…or not, not, not? November’s got “Leo” written all over it, thanks to sultry Mars and lucky Jupiter in your sign. But while you’re turning heads and feeling frisky, you’ll also have to content with romantic Venus and communicator Mercury in a challenging retrograde until November 13.

Mars has been powering through your sign since late September, and until November 25, your magnetism is off the charts. Use this energy surge to make the first move or take the lead on where your relationship is headed. Just make sure your partner gets a turn in the spotlight, too.

On the 13th, diplomatic Venus concludes a disruptive six-week retrograde that started on October 3. This backspin has been churning up conflict and causing misunderstandings with family and friends. But today, as the planet of love and beauty resumes forward motion, you can get the peace talks underway and start bringing back the love. 

Venus will linger in Libra until December 4, helping to ease any lingering tension before the holidays officially start. In your third house of conversation, Venus makes it easier to clear the air (and flirt!) freely. Text first, plan a local date night or say what’s really in your heart. Then Venus returns to Scorpio and your fourth house of home and family, where cozy nights in and deeper emotional bonds take priority through the end of the year.

Ready for a little stability, without sacrificing the spice? On November 25, Mars moves into Virgo and your second house of money and values, where it stays until February 2. Love gets grounded, and you’ll want stability you can count on. Couples can map out shared financial goals or splurge on a thoughtful (but maybe not flashy) holiday gift. Single? Look for someone whose values match yours.

Heads up: before Venus leaves Libra, there’s a November 28 scuffle with wounded healer Chiron in Aries and your ninth house of beliefs. A conversation could touch a nerve, revealing an old story you’ve been telling yourself about love. With Chiron in reverse until January 6, it’s the perfect time to write a new script. Speaking from the heart can lead to a breakthrough.
