Leo

General
You’ve been waiting for 2012 for your whole life, Lioness. This year will not be short on drama and excitement, so one thing is for sure; you’ll never be bored. You may have heard that it’s going to be the end of the world as you know it, but you should be feeling more than fine. All this talk about end times shouldn’t have you concerned, darling kitten, because you’re totally ready for what’s coming. We’re merely moving to the next phase of human consciousness, and since you’re a fire sign who is always one step ahead, you probably dipped your paws into this wisdom in 2011. Uranus rules your relationship zone, but it’s been electrifying your house of long-distance travel since last year. This is where jaunts across the pond become life-changing opportunities for romance. The most important thing to remember is that your schedule is not your life, and your life is not your schedule. You may be offered a choice between adventure and work this summer, and you may feel like King Solomon as you make your decision. Tons of energy explodes into your social sphere starting in late May and early June. With Jupiter’s presence in this zone of your chart for the rest of the year, you’ll network your courageous heart out. Saturn’s entry into your fourth house of home asks you to reevaluate your early childhood or your current domestic situation. If you’re living with someone you’re not meant to be with simply because it’s too expensive to move, the universe may push you make change.
Love:
Lap up the loving energy pouring into your one-to-one relationship zone during January and February. Your fifth house of romance and pleasure is lit up with intense energy in early June, when a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse wakes up longings that may have been asleep for a few months. The Transit of Venus, one of the most remarkable aspects of the year, hits your friendship zone at the same time; so it’s very possible for friends to become lovers now. Since so much energy is focused in your networking zone from the middle of the year until the end, volunteering is a great way to connect with new people, including ones that you want to date.
Career & Money:
With Mars, the planet of action and speed, spending the first seven months of 2012 in your money house, prepare to be a perpetual cash magnet. You'll attract new income streams and have the power to grow your salary; be bold enough to ask for what you deserve. There's just one caveat: when Mars goes retrograde from late January to mid-April, recent gains may be seemingly reversed. During the retrograde, don't assume any changes to your income are permanent; all is in flux. Do watch your spending habits early this year -- you'll want all the pretty things you usually can't afford. 2012's other huge cosmic blessing comes from Jupiter, the planet of luck. This auspicious force remains in your career sector through June, and then spends the rest of the year in your goals' zone. Make those wishes, and follow up on every last one.
Friendship:
This is where your life is changing, growing and expanding exponentially this year, Leo. Jupiter, the planet of luck and abundance, enters your networking arena in June and stays there for a year. You’ll have rich, creative relationships with old friends and new friends; your contact list will definitely grow long. Do say yes to invitations to cocktail parties near the Transit of Venus on 5 June – one of the most spectacular days of the year for making your wishes come true with a little help from your mates.
Health:
With Pluto moving slowly through your house of health (from 2008 to 2024) you’re learning to balance your body’s needs with those of your insanely busy schedule. This summer, Uranus will smack up against Pluto in an aspect that will define the decade. Revolution will continue to spill into the streets across the globe, and you’ll be figuring out how you fit in. Don’t let your need for constant, instant drama affect your sleep schedule or eating habits. If you’re traveling abroad, be extra careful of your health; the excitement of it all can fray your nerves.
