Leo
Born between: July 23rd - August 22nd
The Leo symbol is a lion and the attributes are mimicked by those born under the Leo star sign as they are proud, strong characters who are passionate leaders which unfortunately may be perceived as bossy.
If you get involved in a discussion or intellectual debate you'll find it easy to air your views today. What's more, you'll manage to do so without sounding as though you're looking for a fight, and you'll want to listen to the other person's ideas as well. If you need to chase someone up because they've been dragging their heels, do it today while you can combine a direct approach with diplomacy. Advantageous colours are hazelnut and sparkling gold. Lucky numbers are 5 and 8.
This is a delightful day because you're feeling really cheerful and gregarious. It's great for being with some of your favourite people, especially if you're doing something enjoyable together. There could also be news of a forthcoming long-distance journey, whether you're the one who'll be travelling or someone is coming to visit you. Lively colours are plum and cream. Lucky numbers are 23 and 74.
Ask someone a question today and settle back while they give you a long, long answer. Yes, it's one of those days when people are extremely talkative and it's difficult to extricate yourself once they get going. But maybe you won't want to, as you'll hear information that fascinates you. You're in the mood to talk to people who live far away, but watch the phone bill if you're the one who makes the call. Auspicious colours are coffee and burnt orange. Lucky numbers are 17 and 64.
The atmosphere between you and the rest of the family is anything but restful this Monday. Someone seems to be on the warpath and they won't relax until they've had at least one good argument. This will be rather trying if you're on the receiving end of their bad temper, but there's a strong chance that you're actually provoking them in some way. Maybe you'd like an argument too but you don't like to admit it to yourself? Beneficial colours are emerald green and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 11 and 14.
Have a chat with a loved one this Sunday. You don't have to talk about anything very earth-shattering. You simply need to talk to them about whatever is uppermost in both your minds at the moment. You might also be able to help this person sort out a problem that's been bugging them recently. If you've got some spare time after all that, you'll enjoy getting involved in a puzzle, quiz, jigsaw or anything else that will test your brainpower. Lucky colours are parchment and oyster. Lucky numbers are 14 and 29.
The tensions of yesterday's Full Moon start to get to you today, creating a lot of fuss about some facts. Maybe you need to find the truth about something that has been confused until now, or you suspect that someone has been inflating and exaggerating their story. Once again, you need to keep calm and not create a major crisis out of a minor problem. Fortunate colours are golden honey and ultramarine. Lucky numbers are 29 and 57.
Today's Full Moon will have a big impact on your communications during the next two weeks. It might make you think seriously about something that's close to home, such as a child's education or a neighbourhood issue. This will also be a good time to clear up recent misunderstandings with someone so you can set the record straight. Throughout all this, do your best to remain calm and not to let anything get on top of you. Ideal colours are pale pink and mango. Lucky numbers are 27 and 54.
If you went overboard yesterday you'll want to make up for it today by being much more prudent and economical. You might even decide to return some purchases to the shops where you bought them so you can get your money back. Even if you didn't blot your financial copybook yesterday this is a good day for going through your accounts or balancing your chequebook. Positive colours are kiwifruit and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 6 and 44.
The more bored or fed up you feel today, the greater the likelihood of spending money to entertain yourself. And you won't be content with a quick trip round the supermarket or buying some petrol, either. Instead, you'll want to splash out on all sorts of impulse buys, whether you need them or not. Try to limit the damage if you're supposed to be saving your money rather than spending it. Calming colours are fuchsia and ginger. Lucky numbers are 21 and 9.
During the next few weeks you'll really enjoy getting involved in something unusual and thought provoking. This could be a topic or interest that completely captivates you, so you want to devote increasing amounts of time to it. Alternatively, you might become involved with someone who comes from another country or different walk of life and who has a big impact on you. Life certainly won't be dreary over the coming weeks! Favourable colours are silver and dark red. Lucky numbers are 20 and 32.
It's hard to work out what a certain person thinks they're up to, and they obviously don't have a clue either. They're being vague and might also be elusive, so you can't track them down or get hold of them when you want them. If you ask them any direct questions, be prepared for them to prevaricate or fudge the issue. You might as well forget the whole thing for the time being and stop wasting your time! Bold colours are almond and parchment. Lucky numbers are 29 and 41.
During the next few weeks you'll want to channel a lot of energy into your relationships. This means that you'll want them to go well, and you could get rather irritated if you think other people aren't putting the same amount of effort into the partnership as you are. You'll also lose your temper with people who you think are slower or more cautious than you at the moment. Do your best to only get angry when it's absolutely necessary, otherwise you'll be shouting at every opportunity. Propitious colours are charcoal grey and sienna. Lucky numbers are 35 and 51.
You're well able to stand up for yourself today but without going over the top and turning someone into an enemy. If you've hired someone to carry out some work for you, you'll be able to give them instructions without sounding bossy. Try to fit in some physical exercise at some point, even if it's relatively modest. You need to keep on the move in order to burn off your excess nervous energy. Fortunate colours are lavender and ginger. Lucky numbers are 11 and 50.
The emotional squalls and turbulence that you faced on Monday return to haunt you today, so watch out. Maybe the other person wants to get their own back in some way, or they're having another attempt at manipulating you into doing what they want. There could also be problems over money, with one of you using it as a lever or bargaining chip. You need to sort this out but do so without stirring up even more trouble for the future. Ideal colours are dark yellow and navy. Lucky numbers are 9 and 44.
There's a lot of emotional tension in the air today and it's bound to end in a scene sooner or later. Maybe you should hurry things along and clear the air quickly, so you can get on with the rest of your day. Do your best to be straightforward and honest, rather than confrontational and aggressive, otherwise you'll put the other person on the defensive and make them feel they're being attacked. And perhaps they are? Passionate colours are umber and peach. Lucky numbers are 16 and 13.
Get chatting to people who are on the same wavelength as you this Wednesday. You could have a fascinating conversation that makes you look at a particular topic in a completely new light, or you might get the chance to display your knowledge about something. If you've been toying with the idea of joining a club or society, you might be inspired to turn your thoughts into action. Opportunistic colours are aubergine and fawn. Lucky numbers are 31 and 60.
This is a good day for tackling any chores and tasks that you haven't had time for recently. They may not be very exciting, which could be why you've put them off, but they need your attention and the sooner you get them out of the way the better. Besides, you'll feel very virtuous when everything has been sorted out and you can relax, knowing that you've done your best. Favourable colours are caramel and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 10 and 34.
Take care because a certain person is doing their best to make you do things their way. They won't be very subtle about it, either, as you'll discover if they think you're disobeying them. This could easily turn into a battle of wills, especially if you're determined to give as good as you get. But does the situation really have to get this heated? Make sure you don't start something you can't finish. Energising colours are pineapple and jet black. Lucky numbers are 13 and 60.
Don't judge a book by its cover or someone by their outward appearance because you'll have a surprise in store. You might meet someone who looks very buttoned up and staid, but who turns out to be a real laugh, or it could happen the other way round. If you always do the same things each Sunday, consider varying your routine slightly simply to liven up the day. Beneficial colours are platinum and gold. Lucky numbers are 7 and 52.
There's some telepathic communication between you and a certain someone today. Perhaps you know what they're going to say before they even open their mouth, or you start to think about them just before they ring you up. This ability will come in useful if you're discussing a sensitive topic and you need to choose your words carefully. Trust your instincts to tell you what to say and what to keep to yourself. Opportunistic colours are champagne and magenta. Lucky numbers are 3 and 19.
Someone's tongue runs away with them today, turning a quick chat into a long, long conversation. You won't mind unless you've got something urgent to do and you can't extricate yourself from this person's ceaseless babblings. Or maybe you're the one who's got so much to say that you can't stop talking? This is particularly likely if you're talking about your latest craze or interest. Try to remember that not everyone is as gripped by it as you are. Fortunate colours are dark brown and brass. Lucky numbers are 27 and 27.
It's good to know that you can count on a certain person today. They're dependable and trustworthy, especially if you need to confide in them for some reason. Even if you don't have anything very earth- shattering to say, you'll appreciate knowing that you're rooting for each other and your relationship is built on strong foundations. Make sure you nurture it and let this person know how much you appreciate them. Fortunate colours are spring green and sable. Lucky numbers are 20 and 47.
Fancy spending some money? It's one of those days when you can't help going shopping or buying something over the internet. That's fine if you've got the money but not such good news if you haven't. There's a great atmosphere between you and a special person this Wednesday, making it the perfect excuse to do something nice together. Inspirational colours are silvery grey and marmalade. Lucky numbers are 11 and 8.
You're very sensitive to the moods of the people around you today, so be careful about the company you keep. If you're with someone who's very angry or irritable, you'll quickly absorb their mood. You might even find that they calm down and you get wound up, which won't be much fun. Ideally, you should spend time with people who are on your wavelength and who make you feel good about yourself. Fortunate colours are azure and taupe. Lucky numbers are 1 and 55.
Try as you might, you can't make much progress today. Maybe someone is putting up lots of obstacles or you're facing a difficult situation and can't find a way round it. Whatever is wrong, it's incredibly frustrating and is testing your patience to the limit. However, there is no magic bullet and it looks as though you must like or lump it at the moment. Maybe you need to rethink your strategy in some way? Auspicious colours are shimmering purple and apricot. Lucky numbers are 27 and 68.
It's a great day for simply getting on with whatever jobs are awaiting your attention. That could mean anything from being busy at work to clearing out the fridge, but it will be satisfying to know that you've achieved something. This is also a good opportunity to go through a bank or credit card statement and make sure it doesn't contain any rogue entries. Beneficial colours are lemon and cherry. Lucky numbers are 26 and 42.
Give your brain some exercise during the coming four weeks, especially if that means getting involved in intellectual or educational topics. If you've always wanted to learn more about a particular subject this is a great opportunity to start, whether you do it under your own steam or in a classroom. How about signing up for a distance-learning course or an evening class? It could broaden your social life as well as your brain. Expansive colours are sky blue and peach blossom. Lucky numbers are 5 and 28.
Get ready for a few surprises in a close relationship. Someone could sweep you off your feet and suggest doing something totally different from your usual Friday routine, or they could say something that leaves you reeling with shock. There's also a chance that you could be smitten by someone you meet today, and feel dazzled by their sexual magnetism and the chemistry between you. Should you leave it at that or take it any further? Favourable colours are orange and ivory. Lucky numbers are 34 and 60.
There is so much energy coursing through your body today that you don't know what to do first. It's important that you stay as active as possible, but equally important that you know where to draw the line before you exhaust yourself. Be careful if you're going to the gym or doing something very physical because you'll have a tendency to take things to extremes. You don't want to pull a muscle in the cause of getting fit! Uplifting colours are ebony and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 17 and 49.
You'll value having some time to yourself today, even if you can only snatch a few minutes here and there. It's quality rather than quantity that counts this Wednesday, so do your best to relax and unwind completely whenever you get the chance. A conversation with a loved one could turn into a session in which you confide your secrets in one another. Favourable colours are toffee and mandarin. Lucky numbers are 36 and 64.
You start the month feeling really good, so enjoy yourself! Close relationships work well today, whether they're with your partner or other members of your family, as there are few expectations of one another. Instead, you're happy to let people be themselves, and it's a recipe for success. If you've been thinking about a possible house move, this is a good day for taking things one step further. Steamy colours are sable and spearmint. Lucky numbers are 39 and 46.
