Leo: Monthly romantic

You get a nice energy boost as the sun and mercury align in exciting, enthusiastic sagittarius and your romance zone on december 5. If you’re single and looking, this is the perfect time to put yourself out there and watch the sparks fly! If you’re already in a relationship, a more exciting vibe helps spice things up. When energetic mars goes retrograde in your ego-filled sign on the sixth, though, it could stir up some unresolved conflict or create an unnecessary power struggle. Communicating openly and honestly with a current partner or someone you’re trying to get to know better helps deepen your connection, especially if you’re committed to working on your own hang-ups and issues. Your main focus shifts to work and other responsibilities as your strong leader sun moves into hardworking capricorn on december 21, so love might take a back seat for a minute. This is an ideal time to think about long-term love goals that don’t need your immediate attention. On the twenty-ninth, asteroid chiron goes direct in like-minded fire sign aries, encouraging you to let go of any past hurts (like painful breakups or abusive treatment) and embrace your inner warrior. When did you stop fighting for what you want and deserve in your love life, leo? It’s time to reclaim your crown and wear it with pride again.
