Leo Horoscope Today — January 28, 2025

FireJul 23 — Aug 22Ruling Planet: Sun

You’re used to being the one who lights up the room, but today the room feels a little too bright. The Moon is in Capricorn in your sixth house of daily routines, health, and service, and it’s sextile the North Node in Pisces in your eighth house of shared resources and transformation. This is a day that asks you to work behind the scenes, to do the unglamorous tasks that no one will thank you for. And that’s exactly why you need to do them. The Balsamic Moon phase is about clearing the decks. It’s about finishing what you started so you can start something new without the weight of unfinished business.

Mars is retrograde in Cancer, lurking in your twelfth house of solitude, endings, and the subconscious. This is a difficult placement for your ruling planet. Mars here is like a fire burning underwater—it’s there, but it’s hard to access. You might feel tired, unmotivated, or strangely emotional without a clear reason. The Moon’s opposition to Mars today can bring old resentments or regrets to the surface. Something you thought you’d dealt with might come back for a final visit. Don’t fight it. Let it pass through you. This is not a day for confrontation. It’s a day for release.

Venus is conjunct Saturn in Pisces in your eighth house of intimacy, shared finances, and psychological depth. This is a serious influence for your closest relationships. You might feel the need to define a relationship that’s been in a gray area. Saturn doesn’t do ambiguity. If you’re in a partnership, you might need to talk about money, commitment, or boundaries. If you’re single, you might realize that you’ve been settling for less than you deserve. Venus sextile Uranus in Taurus in your tenth house of career offers a surprising opportunity: a professional connection that could turn into something personal. Be open, but be cautious.

The Sun in Aquarius is conjunct Pluto in your seventh house of partnerships, and trine Jupiter in your fifth house of creativity, romance, and self-expression. This is a dynamic alignment for your relationships. You might have a conversation that transforms how you see a partner or collaborator. Pluto strips away illusions. If someone has been hiding something, it will come to light. Jupiter’s trine brings a sense of expansion and joy, but only if you’re willing to be honest. A creative project or romantic gesture could take on new life today. Don’t hold back. Your heart knows what it wants.

By the evening, the Moon trine Uranus in your tenth house brings a sudden shift in your professional life. You might receive unexpected news about a job, a project, or a public recognition. Or you might simply have a flash of insight about your career path. The Balsamic Moon phase asks you to release the need for external validation. You don’t need applause to know you’re doing good work. But when it comes, let yourself enjoy it.
