Leo Horoscope for May 2016

This is a paradoxical month for you, Leo, a time when you are charging ahead and also stopping still, filled with enthusiasm for outer events and simultaneously pulled to the inside, there to contemplate recent changes in perspective. With the Sun in sectors of your chart associated with outer world concerns and proclivities, this is a big month for going strong with your public persona, while the presence of Saturn in your creativity sector slows you down considerably and the retrograde of important inner planets further engenders deep contemplation of what is going on inside you. This contributes to your ongoing investigation of where you are truly headed. It is a juggling act to gracefully handle these two ways of approaching the world, and yet the universe is calling you to make a supreme effort. When you do, the rewards are great, especially over the long term. As the month begins, you are very aware of partnership considerations in your life, and the several ways that these impinge upon your own sense of yourself in a public or a professional role. This month is a time of being out in the world for all to see, and reveling in the sense of accomplishment that this brings to you, by means of both reputation and material reward. And yet it is also paradoxically a time of looking within yourself, as revealed symbolically by the recent retrograde of Mercury in semi-sextile to Uranus and to Eris, thereby representing discovering how to conceptualize the world around you in a fashion that you can feel deep down, not with ordinary logic but with an extra-dimensional sense of what feels right for you. As you share with close allies the mental victories of this cosmic timing, and there are many, an internal filter equally applies. It is this: that only those achievements that match what you hold inside you, in your own unique way, will truly satisfy you in the long run. Source : astrograph.com
