♀ Venus in Leo personality
In a nutshell, the Venus in Leo native seeks passion, respect and interdependence in their relationships. They are generous, romantic and warm like the sun, and attract others who love to create and play.
Venus in Leo is symbolised by the lion and not only are they fabulous (see the mane of gorgeous hair), but they take on the leonine qualities of loyalty and love of the hunt too.
Once a Venus in Leo has dazzled you, they'll want to keep the fire alive, but they'll fiercely protect you too and make sure you feel like you belong. Family is important to a Venus in Leo and they'll fight to the death for their loved ones.
Due to the forceful nature of Leo with its fixed fire energy, when Venus is in Leo, there can be a tendency for ego clashes – my way or the highway – and the Venus in Leo native can feel frustrated when things don't go exactly how they want.
This can cause the Venus in Leo native's experience of self-esteem, relationships and values to be dependent on whether or not they feel respected. The lion's pride burns passionately beneath every action, and they can ignite dramatically or fizzle out if they feel neglected or criticised.
Venus in Leo needs to have a purpose or place in society (or someone's heart) and when they feel appreciated and creatively fulfilled, this royal heart will spread sparkle and fun wherever they go, pulling up others with them and roaring their passion from up high.

♀ Prophecy + Divination | Venus in Leo Magic
Venus in Leo is a very extraverted placement so divination needs to take on a different colour. It's less about looking within and more about enjoying yourself and taking the signs and synchronicities as they come.
The fixed fire nature of Venus in Leo lends itself to pyromancy (fire divination). There are a few different types of pyromancy but if you've ever watched a flame dance and taken some meaning from the shapes, you're already familiar with the art!
To practice pyromancy, try fire scrying first. Start by relaxing and clearing your mind with some deep breaths. Ask a question if you want. Stare into the candle flame until your eyes become hazy and let your senses become attuned to the moment, tuning out anything else except the flame.
Take note of any shapes, images, sounds or thoughts that come to you, and enjoy it! Fire scrying can be a very relaxing type of meditation too.
You can also try your hand at capnomancy, divining from smoke spires, or spodomancy which is scrying patterns in the leftover ash or soot of a fire.
Since Venus in Leo is ruled by the Sun, any type of creative divination is also powerful at this time, including painting or drawing. Coloromancy is divination by colour and encromancy is divination by ink spills or stains. Both can be a lot of fun!
♀ Love Magic | Venus in Leo Magic
Venus in Leo needs to feel passion and connection and love lives require fun, excitement and sexual fulfilment.
If you're making love magic during Venus in Leo (or for a Venus in Leo native), opt for intentions like:
More passion, more sexual fulfillment, spicing things up, sex magic!, receiving appreciation, lots of attention, glamour magic, confidence, shared vision, support, creative approaches to relationships, finding a balance between leading and following, finding a partner who can "keep up".
Use correspondences like: Sunday, number 1 (the number of the self), fire, candles, the Sun, suit of wands, gold, orange, red, lions, summer, citrine, amber, chest, upper back, sunflower, calendula, lemon.
A love spell for Venus in Leo:
Choose your intention very cautiously. Venus in Leo magic is powerful so be careful what you wish for and make sure it's, a) something you really want, and b) something very specific to avoid vague/wrong outcomes.
In this spell, we will increase the passion between two people.
On a Sunday, take two red, orange or gold candles (the smaller the better as you'll need to watch them burn down) and carve or write the names of your two people, one in each candle.
Anoint them with an oil like clove or cinnamon, or lemon juice works well too. Rub the oil towards you not away.
Light the candles while singing or dancing to raise the energy and ask the sun to bless your work.
While they burn, watch the flames to see if you get any messages. The brighter and bigger the flame, the more successful your magic is going to be.
Let the flames burn out and know it is done. Dispose of the wax in nature with a word or two saying "the energy has been cleared" or something similar to cleanse the items of your magic.
Fire magic works fast so be warned! ;)

♀ Self-Worth + Glamour Magic | Venus in Leo Magic
The self-worth of a Venus in Leo is hard to miss! They can light up a room with their big presence and dazzle everyone around them with their confidence, warmth and sparkle.
A Venus in Leo, however, needs to feel like other people see it too, and they do well in groups of likeminded friends who they can dance, giggle and share with. Alone for too long, they can feel a little lackluster and might need to explore their identity in new and exciting ways.
Overall, the self-esteem of a Venus in Leo is pretty solid and they're never knocked down for long. They don't shy away from the spotlight and encourage those around them to stand up tall and shine too.
During Venus in Leo transits, we all get a boost in our self-worth!
This is the perfect time to practice some glamour magic, since you've got the power of the sun on your side. The sun rules our core self and what makes us shine from the inside out. Harnessing solar energy to put towards self-worth, confidence and appearances will make you magnetic with a capital M!
If you're making self-worth and glamour magic during a Venus in Leo transit (or for a Venus in Leo native), opt for intentions like:
BIG self-worth, BIG hair!, magnetic charisma, letting your natural qualities shine through, taking up more space (stop playing small), claiming your throne, showing off, impressing someone (or everyone), hitting the dancefloor, attracting lovers or clients, confidence in yourself and your abilities, communicating louder (and prouder).
Use correspondences like:
The sun in a complimentary sign (Aries, Sagittarius), gold, amber or citrine jewellery, big hair, loud style, sunflowers, sparkle, yellow, red, orange, lemon, sandalwood, clove.
A simple glamour magic spell for Venus in Leo:
You might know that you can make moon water, but did you also know that you can make sun water?
Get yourself a high quality oil like almond, jojoba, hemp or rosehip. Avoid heavy oils like olive.
Choose an essential oil/any of the following ingredients to add to your oil:
Chamomile, cinnamon, clove, frankincense, grapefruit, juniper, lemon balm, sandalwood.
Mix the ingredients in a glass jar while speaking your intention with confidence, then leave the jar out in the sun on a particularly glorious day.
Before night falls, take the oil and massage it into your skin while speaking your intentions again. Sing if you feel it!
Voila! You're fabulous.
♀ Money Magic | Venus in Leo Magic
If you have Venus in Leo (or are experiencing a Venus in Leo transit), your attitude towards money is "the more the better"! Unless you have an aspect in your natal chart that detracts, you tend to be EXTRA when it comes to money.
Venus in Leo likes nice things (their ruling colour is GOLD after all!) and they like to feel good about themselves. This means that they must be careful not to overspend or they can feel a lot of shame when they don't have the finances they desire, however, it does make them hella fancy.
More important to a Venus in Leo is the APPEARANCE of money. This might mean that they're pretty thrifty and know how to find a bargain that looks like a million bucks!
Venus in Leo is very generous and big on gifts. They'll put extra effort into choosing beautiful and heartfelt things that people will love. They're pretty good at receiving gifts too! They have a knack for knowing what you'd like and take great joy from seeing someone spoilt rotten.
Overall, Venus in Leo money magic is generous with a capital G, and a great time to invest, splurge or manifest the big bucks.
If you're making money magic during a Venus in Leo transit (or for a Venus in Leo native), opt for intentions like:
Luxury things! Gold, sparkles, jewellery, treating yourself, luck with investments, receiving gifts, giving gifts, unexpected income, finding cash, feeling fancy, manifesting dream items, manifesting things that are completely unnecessary but fun, money for friends and family, money for charity, creating BIG business.
A simple money magic spell for Venus in Leo:
On a Sunday, set up an altar to the sun. Find things related to Venus in Leo, e.g. sunflowers, gold jewelery, gold leaf, gold foil, red, orange, yellow colours, cacti, chamomile flowers etc. and add a picture of Goddess Lakshmi (goddess of wealth).
Every day until the following Sunday, offer something to your altar (incense, fruit, flowers, sweets).
On the Sunday, ask for something in writing (gold paper if you have it!) and place it on your altar. Sing a song that makes you feel joyous and say thank you (in advance) to Goddess Lakshmi for granting your wish.
Make offerings every day until 4 more Sundays have passed. If your wish hasn't been granted by then, repeat the ritual. If it has been granted, give thanks and offer your joy at this magical abundance.
♀ Healing Magic | Venus in Leo Magic
Venus in Leo magic benefits from the powerful strength of the sun, and in many religions, the sun is said to be the most healing energy available to us on earth.
Because of this, solar therapies are the most strong at this time: sunbathing and spending time outdoors is extra healing. However, be careful not to get too much sun, especially at midday. In Hinduism, early morning sun is said to be the most beneficial for our health.
The areas ruled by Leo are: chest, heart, upper back, and so healing these areas takes on extra potency during Venus in Leo transits.
A simple healing spell for Venus in Leo:
Every morning, speak positive intentions about what it is you wish to heal, into a glass of room temperature water, then drink it!
You can also speak intentions into your bath or shower, and nurture yourself while you cleanse too.
**disclaimer** Magic does not replace a doctor's visit! Any magical advice you take from me is as a supplement to proper medical care.
♀ Venus in Leo Talisman Magic
Activate the powers of Venus in Leo by forging a talisman during the Venus in Leo transit.
Talismans are usually made in the form of jewellery or small objects to carry around and reap the benefits 24/7.
Working with an astrologer (like me!) to find a perfect date and time will give your talisman the exact energy you want. This is "electional astrology" and you can book a consultation with me here.
Choose your intention: glamour magic, confidence, receiving easy money, nice shiny things, being seen and appreciated, feeling passionate and creative, receiving invites and compliments, great hair.
Then decide what it is you want to create. Gold is a symbol of Leo so making an item of gold jewellery is a fabulous idea.
If you want to upcycle/decorate something, be aware that sometimes talismans are unpredictable when they're not made new. The energy on the item already will become part of your spell (for good or bad).
If you want to use an item like that, cleanse it properly first!
At your elected time, set up your ritual space and create your talisman. Focus on your intention while making it.
Charge the talisman every Venus in Leo season to refresh the magic and keep the good times rolling.
We've reached the end!
