Mercury in Leo

Mercury, known as the Messenger of God, will enter the sign of Leo on Thursday. Notice any placements in your Natal Chart in Fixed Signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius) as they will feel the frequencies the most. Mercury in the Fixed Fire sign is of benefit for all Fire and Air Signs, and provides challenges and growth opportunities for the Earth and Water Signs.

Mercury in a Fire sign is inspirational and outgoing. Leo wants to shine and be the star. Afterall, it is ruled by the Sun which is our local Star.   Mercury in Leo is theatrical, charismatic and creative. It is bold, confident, playful and highly expressive. Whereas Aries is the spark of the flame, Leo is the center of the fire. It burns steady and deep. Like all the fixed signs Leo can be deep, loyal and yet prone to stubbornness. The center of the fire will hold its shape and not shift or move as much as the rest of the flame. Fixed signs seek steadiness.

Mercury will be retrograde in Leo from July 18th to August 11, 2025. So from now until the end of August (due to the post retrograde period) we have time to explore the Leo/Aquarius Axis in our charts. We can bring more joy, creativity, generosity and excitement to our everyday life. Notice what placements you have in the Leo/Aquarius axis as Mercury is asking you to think about this area, get things moving and allow the transformative fires of Mercury in Leo to inspire you, challenge you and guide you forward.

As Mercury transits through the sign of Leo, we have an opportunity to be playful and creative. We can explore new ventures, hobbies and things to do that are fun and life giving. If you have been wanting to take a class, try a new hobby, this is a great time to get started. Mercury is movement. How can you bring more inspiration and fire to your everyday routine? How can you step out of your comfort zone and shake things up for the fun and joy of it?

Leo at its best teaches us to find joy and happiness. It shines the Light through its heart by being generous and giving. Mercury in Leo gives us an opportunity to express our light, our words, our actions with more joy. What gives you joy? What makes you smile for no reason? What makes you laugh so loud that your belly hurts? While Mercury transits Leo find more ways to feel joy flowing through you. And give back. Give more joy to others. Give a smile. Say good morning. Or just nod…I see you…I see your humanity. You can make someone’s day that way.

Another fun way to incorporate the energies of Mercury in Leo can be to change your look. Have you been wanting to change the way your hair looks? Your makeup? Your clothing? Your shoes? Change it up. Try something new. Another way can be to take a fun class, maybe something you would normally not do. Like taking an acting class or singing lessons.

Additionally, think of what would be fun to add to your daily work routine. I often hear from clients, how can I find my purpose? What if life purpose was about living life WITH purpose? What if you added meaning and purpose and joy to what you are currently already doing? What if you changed your perspective? Change the desk around. Decorate it. Take more walks and breaks. Start a book club? If you work alone, maybe create a book club or coffee club with your friends or family? Life is what we make of it. We have a tendency to pray and wait for the future. I’ll be happy when…and that when never comes. Use the frequencies of Mercury in Leo to create more joy and fun in your life. Time keeps moving without waiting for us to catch up. Create purpose. Create fun. Create joy. Stop waiting for happiness to arrive and start making happiness now.

Lastly, Leo teaches us about our heart. Listen to your heart’s longings during this Mercury in Leo season as Mercury is the Messenger of God. What message is God delivering into your heart? What makes your heart sing with joy? What makes your heart burn with passion and excitement? Fire is burning bright in our hearts this Mercury in Leo season. Pay close attention to the whispers in your heart…listen…It knows the way!
