On Tuesday, Mars enters Cancer, a sign where it is in fall. Here, the planet of action feels far from comfortable, so our actions won’t go forward as directly; we will be driven by emotion and become much more protective of home, family, and what is ours, tending to react rather than to act.
The following day, the main event arrives with the aforementioned total Solar eclipse. Since it happens in its own sign, its impact will influence Leos with Sun, Moon, and Rising much more; a true cosmic shake-up that invites us to reset a fading identity, leaving behind a version of ourselves that has expired. In the collective, it could mark the start of a key renewal period in the upper echelons of power and in world leaderships or monarchies, a movement that could eclipse leaders unexpectedly or provoke the downfall of public figures no one imagines. The same day as the eclipse, the opposition between Mercury in Leo and Pluto retrograde in Aquarius perfects, a tense aspect. A struggle of power between individual thought and what the collective requires for its transformation.
On Saturday, the alliance between Mercury and Jupiter in Leo will become an excellent conduit for inspiration, expanding our creativity and opening the door to communication proposals that are highly fortunate and favorable. To close the week, and even with the afterglow of the eclipse, Sunday will require us to navigate a tense square between Mars and Neptune retrograde, an aspect that will demand caution and moving with care in the face of the risk of confusion, disappointment, or misunderstandings.
ARIES
The Solar eclipse in Leo comes to shake you completely in love. This event will raise uncomfortable questions: are you truly living for pleasure? Do you allow yourself to love without defenses? For you to be able to trust love again, it will be inevitable for an identity that keeps you from being vulnerable to fall away. By the end of the week, the tension between Mars and Neptune will inflame family frictions. It is very likely that at home they won’t fully accept the changes you are going through, which could spark disputes.
TAURUS
A sky event is coming that can bring a lot of movement to your home. With the Solar eclipse in Leo, it’s very likely you’ll have to deal with renovations, moves, or with the definitive closing of a family stage where old patterns and inherited beliefs will be eclipsed. Fortunately, the light will arrive in the middle of all this thanks to the conjunction between Mercury and Jupiter; this union could bring some clarity to solve the unforeseen events that may have arisen after this emotional blackout. Make space for the new!
GEMINI
If you’ve been wanting to clarify something with a brother or neighbors for a while, the Solar eclipse in Leo will uncover what’s underneath, though with the luck that, midweek, Mercury and Jupiter will shed a bit of light on that conversation or negotiation. Additionally, there will be a lot of movement in love matters; it’s an ideal week for stimulating dates where you can feel free, coming and going at your whim to enjoy your independence. At the end of the week, the square between Mars and Neptune can bring money misunderstandings with friends. Set clear boundaries!
CANCER
It’s completely normal if during the week you feel a lot of physical and emotional wear; having Mars in your sign, added to the energy of the eclipse, will require extra effort. This event could eclipse something in your finances to make you question whether you are earning what you truly deserve. Fortunately, the Mercury-Jupiter conjunction could help solve the eclipse’s disruption. Toward the end of the week, fatigue may be even greater due to the square between Mars and Neptune, which could bring misunderstandings in the professional realm.
LEO
The total Solar eclipse in your sign comes to shake your world up, opening the door to a total renewal in your life. Since the sign of Leo inaugurates its phase with the South Node, this event is key to releasing past roles that no longer represent you or that hinder your personal growth. However, this transformation will also directly affect your relationships; the same day, Mercury will be in opposition to Pluto, which will bring to light power struggles and latent conflicts with partners or significant others. It’s time to heal your relationships from the root!
VIRGO
On Wednesday, the Solar eclipse in Leo will hit your cellular memory and the unconscious directly; this cosmic event comes to reset you from the deepest, an internal earthquake that will ask you to spend time alone. Added to this is the opposition between Mercury and Pluto, which will bring tensions or power struggles at work that could affect your health. Your body will demand attention due to the heavy workload, so you will need to retreat to process so many changes. To finish, the week may end with some tensions and emotional wear in the realm of friendship.
LIBRA
The Solar eclipse in Leo could bring the end of a friendship or a project you are collaborating on; don’t get overwhelmed, for doors will open to alliances more in line with you. Everything related to travel will be amazing thanks to the trine with Uranus; even if last-minute changes occur, rest assured they will be for the better. However, at the end of the week, the square between Mars and Neptune will stir things up, causing stress and professional fatigue to impact your romantic relationship or generate tensions with partners.
SCORPIO
The Solar eclipse comes to completely reset your professional projection, closing a stage in your career to make way for great opportunities of expansion. In addition to this event is the opposition between Mercury and Pluto, which will bring family disagreements, marking a key week to reconcile changes at home with your work goals. On the other hand, the square of Mars to Neptune can completely throw off your routines, taking a toll on your body. Seek balance so that holidays don’t end up affecting your health.
SAGITTARIUS
The time has come to break the mold and dismantle a mindset that is already too small for you. Although this shift in perspective is painful, opening your eyes will bring you great inner evolution and the opportunity for an unforgettable journey of personal growth. You are transforming your inner dialogue deeply, but this week you will experience a conflict by continuing to cling to old beliefs; remember that we are what we think. By the end of the week, the Mercury-Jupiter conjunction in Leo will bring incredible news and great opportunities for expansion.
CAPRICORN
The Solar eclipse could give a good shake to your deepest emotions or to your bank account. Fortunately, the conjunction of Jupiter and Mercury could bring investment opportunities or even the possibility of receiving extra money. But this won’t be the only event that will move you, since the square between Mars and Neptune will generate a lot of tension in the personal sphere. Prepare to deal with frictions with both your partner and the family; these frictions could bring great emotional wear from feeling unsupported by either side.
AQUARIUS
The Solar eclipse will bring uncomfortable realities to light in your relationships. Added to this is the opposition between Mercury and Pluto in your sign, bringing more tension and disagreements with partners or your significant other. You need to find the balance between your personal transformation and the way you want to live your relationships from now on. The conjunction of Jupiter and Mercury will soften all that has been lived, paving the way for an improvement in communication. However, the square between Mars and Neptune can take a toll if you keep carrying everything on your shoulders.
PISCES
It is time to take care of your body and your health; something is not working in your day-to-day life and this Solar eclipse comes to tell you so by eclipsing an old way of working or nourishing yourself. The Mercury-Pluto opposition will require a significant release of the unconscious to manifest all these changes in daily life. On top of that, the Mars-Neptune square can be frustrating this week as you feel that you are not receiving the recognition you need. Remember that value isn’t external, but you have to give it to yourself.
