This year's Leo season also comes with several notable astrological influences. According to astrologers, Mercury turns direct early in the season, bringing greater mental clarity and smoother communication after a period of confusion. Meanwhile, Jupiter has recently entered Leo for the first time in 12 years, a transit associated with optimism, creativity, confidence, and opportunities for personal growth.

However, the season isn't expected to be all smooth sailing. Astrologers also point to Pluto's opposition, which may bring power struggles, bruised egos, or important personal transformations.
