This Month's Horoscope for Leo

Overview

July 2025 may bring slightly below-average outcomes for Leo natives. The Sun, which rules your zodiac, gives favorable results in the first half of the month but turns weak in the latter half. Mars, ruling your fortune house, will stay in your ascendant but isn't ideally placed. Mercury remains in the twelfth house all month and turns retrograde after July 18, potentially causing delays or confusion in decision-making. The most favorable planetary support this month comes from Jupiter, placed in your profit house, albeit in Rahu’s nakshatra. Venus, despite being in the tenth house (which is generally unfavorable), is in its own sign until July 26 and brings support to your professional life. After the 26th, Venus will deliver even better results. Saturn in the eighth house and Rahu-Ketu placements don’t offer much support. Overall, only Jupiter and Venus show strength this month, hence outcomes may seem slightly subdued across different areas of life.

Career

Venus, the tenth house lord, sits in the tenth house most of this month, offering professional continuity—especially since it is in its own sign. Despite delays or obstacles, your work will move forward. With the Sun in your profit house early in the month, you’ll likely take decisions grounded in past experience, improving professional output. Businesspeople are advised to avoid new ventures or experiments and postpone travel if possible. Foreign trade professionals can do well if they stay alert. Employees should tread carefully; Saturn’s position in the eighth house calls for caution, but early month Sun placement may win you favor with seniors.

Finance

Financially, the month may offer average to above-average results. While Mercury—your wealth and profit lord—is weak in the twelfth house, Jupiter’s placement in the eleventh house and the Sun’s early transit here support gains. After July 26, Venus moves into the profit house and brings a further financial boost. However, saving money may remain difficult. Mercury’s weak condition, along with Saturn’s aspect on your second house, may lead to unnecessary expenditure or a lack of financial discipline. Earnings are likely, but accumulating wealth may be a challenge.

Health

Your health will fluctuate through the month. The first half, with the Sun in a supportive position, helps you stay energized and active. However, during the second half, Mars, Ketu, and Rahu influence your ascendant, and Saturn’s eighth-house placement could lead to fatigue, minor illnesses, or stress. You may feel mentally and physically drained if you're not cautious. Pay special attention to your routine and energy levels during the latter half of the month.

Love, Marriage and Personal Life

Jupiter, the fifth house lord, strongly supports your love life—even if occasional dullness creeps in due to Saturn’s aspect. Minor misunderstandings may arise, but love will prevail. Venus also brings moderate support, especially for those in workplace romances. However, maintaining respect and emotional decorum is crucial. In marriage, things may be rocky. Your seventh house is under Rahu, Ketu, and Mars influence, and Saturn, the seventh lord, resides in the eighth house. This could lead to misunderstandings, emotional distance, or even health issues for either partner. Fortunately, Jupiter’s ninth aspect on your seventh house offers a stabilizing influence and can help resolve marital issues if efforts are made sincerely.

Family and Friends

Family matters may be tense. Mercury, ruling your second house, remains weak, and Saturn's aspect adds further stress. You might either experience excessive communication or a complete lack of it, leading to friction—especially after July 28, when Mars joins the second house. Expect potential conflicts unless caution is exercised. Sibling relations remain neutral, while household issues may crop up due to delays or broken appliances. Although not deeply problematic, domestic disturbances can affect peace of mind.

Advice

• Offer water mixed with kumkum to the Sun daily before sunrise.
• Apply a saffron tilak on your forehead regularly.
• Do not accept free items, even gifts—especially this month.
