Top 5 Themes of Jupiter in Leo

 On June 29 Jupiter, the planet of luck, expansion, optimism and wealth moves from intuitive and protective Cancer to fiery and creative Leo, where he will be until July 26 2027. Jupiter brings luck to the part of our chart ruled by the sign he is in, and especially to those with planets in that sign. On a collective scale it brings ease and optimism to the topics the sign he is in rules. For example, the last 13 months while in the sign of Cancer, we have seen an emphasis on protecting our neighbourhoods, acting locally, and advocating for the safety of children. Juptier also represents the law and justice, so we have seen people work together to protect their communities from everything from ICE to data centres, and to push for the release of the Epstien files. We have also seen an emphasis on comfort, quiet hobbies like bird watching, baking and crafting, and a desire to make our homes a comfortable place to retreat from the world. Now with Jupiter moving into Leo, we are asked to come out of our shells and roar loudly. Below are 5 themes I see emerging for the 13 months ahead of Jupiter in Leo.

Astro Code Oracle

  1. Charismatic Leaders Emerge. Leo is the sign of the king or queen, and Jupiter in Leo years often see leaders that inspire others rise to the fore. Watch for leaders with an optimistic vision for the future to gain momentum now. Those with a vision for the future will inspire others and create movements. Leo is a sign with charisma and a sense of generosity, so I expect that we will see younger leaders with a positive vision emerge. People want someone to get behind and spearhead changes now. These leaders are not always politicians, but may be artists, activists or scientists. Expect to see more people speaking up and speaking out about issues important to them.

  1. Creative Expression. Leo is not the sign of the wallflower but lives to roar for attention. I expect to see more art, movies and music that is expressive, opinionated and flamboyant. Leo loves glamour and attention, so expect to see more bling and colour in fashion and aesthetics. People are looking to express their individuality now, rather than tone down to fit in. Leos are known for their manes so I expect big or dramatic hair to make a comeback. I also think we will see more big block buster movies, and big productions in music and theater.  There will also be more unique creative works emerging that give the established media companies and artists a run for their money.

  2. Optimism and Generosity. Leo is a sign linked to hope and youthful optimism. While there is a lot to be troubled by in the world right now, the move from Jupiter into Leo brings a sense of possibility and a desire to make the world a better place. When Juptier moves into Leo, it will make a sextile with Uranus, the planet of sudden change and technology, who just moved into Gemini. There may be hope around new technologies and scientific breakthroughs. Jupiter will also make a trine with Neptune, the planet of ideals, dreams and fantasy, who just moved into Aries earlier this year. The dreams and ideals we have for the future will feel more possible now that Jupiter is in Leo. This aspect of Jupiter sextile Uranus, trine Neptune and opposite Pluto forms a basket shape in July this year, which holds the opportunity for positive developments in the future for everyone.
     
  3. Fascists and Loyalists. Jupiter in Leo brings out charismatic leaders for the good, but also emboldens those who believe they are better than others. We may see leaders with authoritarian tendencies become more dogmatic or try to impose their will upon others without restraint. We could see more extravagant public works commissioned to glorify and feed the egos of leaders like Trump, Putin and their ilk. Followers of them may become more emboldened or seek to gain attention as they believe they will be rewarded for their efforts. Corruption becomes more evident now as authoritarians reward loyalty over competency.
      
  4. The People vs Authoritarians. In July we will have Pluto in Aquarius opposing Jupiter in Leo. Pluto in Aquarius represents the power of the common people which will be in opposition to those who want to fashion themselves as dictators. Rebellions and protests are more likely to emerge now. Centralized power will be challenged and questioned as people feel the gap between the ultra rich and everyone else grows. The other conflict is between technology like AI, represented by Pluto in Aquarius, and individual creative expression, represented by Jupiter in Leo. As the technocrats try to push AI on the public, many are resisting and finding greater value in authentic creative expression.

Full Moon in Capricorn - Harmony and Balance

 On June 29, 2026 we have a Full Moon at 8 degrees of Capricorn. Full Moons occur when the Sun and Moon are in opposite signs and are a time of heightened energy and emotion. In this case, the Sun is in intuitive and nurturing Cancer, and the Moon in ambitious and hard-working Capricorn. Cancer season is the start of summer holidays in the northern hemisphere. It's a time to relax, be at home enjoying a bbq in the backyard, or to go to your favourite beach spot. Cancer wants to slow down, revisit old memories and asks us to nurture ourselves and others. When the Full Moon in Capricorn comes along, we are asked to not forget about our ambitions and what we want to build in the world. How can we balance our work and home life? What are our ambitions for the second half of the year?

Moonology Oracle

 
This Full Moon is mostly unaspected, with only a loose square to Saturn in Aries. This shows a tension between our home and work life due to our self-imposed limitations. When it comes to balancing the personal and public, we may be holding ourselves back. Do we have self-limiting beliefs? Are we telling ourselves we don't have time, aren't talented enough for our ambitions or that we don't deserve self-care? Neither of these is true. This Full Moon offers us an opportunity to release old beliefs and to use a sense of self discipline to organize our time better so we can find a balance that works for us. 

The Sabian Symbol for this Full Moon is "An Angel with a Harp". This symbol speaks to harmony and faith. When we find the balance in our lives and structure our time and energy to align with our priorities, things in our life run smoother., There is a sense of being in the flow and walking our path in harmony. Self-discipline isn't a punishment or a about being a drill sergeant to ourselves. Rather it is about giving the people and things that mean most to us the time and energy they need. It's about prioritizing what matters to us and making time for ourselves a priority. This Full Moon gives us an opportunity to examine the structures in our lives and see if they are actually supporting us.

New Moon in Gemini - New Possibilities

 On Sunday June 14 we have a New Moon at 24 degrees of Gemini. New Moons occur when the Sun and Moon are in the same sign and mark the start of the 28-day lunar cycle. This makes it a good time to set goals for the month as the conscious mind (the Sun) and the subconscious mind (the Moon) are working together. It is like we are planting a seed of intention at the start of the lunar cycle for it to grow as the Moon waxes in the sky. In the sign of Gemini, this can be a good time to set goals around communication, writing, learning or teaching, socializing and for short trips. Gemini is an air sign that loves to talk, make jokes and to socialize. It also encourages us to gather and share ideas. As this sign can be somewhat quick and changeable, it is a good idea to focus on short term goals, rather than lengthy ones.

Moonology Oracle
 

This New Moon is unaspected, which gives it a lot of possibility and a sense of freedom. With no other planets putting stress on the lunation, it leaves us more freedom to act without restraints. There is a loose aspect with Saturn in Aries, which helps to give structure and a sense of realism to our goals. However, the aspect is quite wide and is supportive, rather than restrictive. This is also the first New Moon in Gemini since Uranus moved into the sign earlier this year. It is too far away to form a conjunction, but its co-presence in Gemini gives a sense of possibility and a desire to break out of routine and look for inspiration. This is a great New Moon to try something new or to make goals around shaking things up and doing things differently. There is a sense of innovation and experimentation now.


The Sabian Symbol for this New Moon is "A Man Trimming Palms". This symbol is about the need to prune and constrain wildness at times if we want to grow a healthy garden. It is the same with the goals we plant now as we cannot do everything at once as we will scatter our energy. It is also important that we have some kind of structure or routine so that we don't get carried away with an idea without any action. Ideas without practical efforts come to nothing and remain fantasies. Its good to shake things up and try something new, but remember that we don't have to reinvent the wheel or do things alone. We learn from those who have gone before and get help from others if needed. 

This is a great New Moon for setting goals around friendship, socializing, short trips and writing projects. It is a lighthearted New Moon and one that opens our minds to possibilities, and encourages us to have fun and try something new.
