Leo horoscope for August 2027
Leo, August is lightly tense, and more of it is about you than anything else. The month’s main date is 2 August, when the solar eclipse falls in Leo itself — a solar eclipse is a marker for what is worth starting. From 2 to 16 August Mercury is in Leo itself. On 10 August Saturn turns retrograde, neutral for travel and study. On 17 August the lunar eclipse is tense for partners and agreements. All month Mars stays neutral for talk and short trips.
