Leo Weekly Horoscope for the Week of October 5, 2026

On the one hand, the Moon's return to Leo on Monday is an ordinary monthly event and something that every four weeks is a valuable chance to check in and become more emotionally and intuitively engaged and aware. On the other hand, seven days after Mars returned to spend the next two months in Leo, this is going to add fuel to his passions, drive, warrior and competitive spirit and give you a better sense of where to channel this. Normally here for just six weeks, Mars is slowing ahead of a retrograde turn in the New Year that is not only keeping him here for two months, but in February will see him retrograde back in to spend another three months here. This makes this the first of many encounters between the Moon and Mars over the coming months, making this something that can be built up in layers. This is something that is always going to see the Moon clash with Pluto in your relationship sector and cross the lunar nodes, putting their policing of a balance between your own and your relationship needs in the spotlight.
