Leo — April 5–11, 2026

Creative expression and self-confidence face some useful friction this week. The Sun-Saturn square challenges you to distinguish between legitimate pride and defensive vanity. If criticism has stung lately, examine whether it contains a grain of truth worth incorporating. Mercury-Jupiter connectivity midweek supports publishing, teaching, or sharing your ideas with a wider audience than usual. Thursday's Mars-Virgo alignment sharpens your critical faculties — use it to edit, not to tear down. A weekend Moon in Cancer brings unexpected emotional clarity about a personal aspiration you've been postponing.
