Leo Monthly Money Horoscope

May 2026

When Mercury and Mars left your financial sector last month, they didn't just end the most active months of the year on this side of the financial fence, the side where it is more about what you do with and how you manage the money you have, but all planetary activity here for the rest of the year. Even when after 13 years, Neptune left last March and two months later after three years Saturn left, within months they were back and spent the final four months of 2025 here. With both gone and not coming back for decades, this ended a near continuous run of planetary activity stretching all the way back to Uranus' return in 2003. However, not only will the Moon continue to return every four weeks, with its return from 11th May to 13th May bringing a chance to check in on money matters, but the lunar nodes are continuing to monitor a balance between money coming in and money going out. While not planets or even physical bodies, from January 2025 to July 2026, located in your two money houses the lunar nodes, the point in the heavens where the Earth's orbit around the Sun is intersected by the Moon's orbit around the Earth will keep things balanced. Especially when moving through your two money houses each month, the Moon passes through this zone. Meanwhile, with no planetary activity in your income sector until the second half of the year but things kicking off in July and then running for the rest of the year, this allows for a firebreak or time to keep extracting what you have learned and gained on the other side of the financial fence and completely exhaust the potential created. By the time Venus returns to your income sector in early July, you will be on top of money matters as you are ever going to be. In the meantime, while you are waiting for a powering up of activity on the career front over the course of May and June is a chance to first get things up to speed professionally. This is something the Moon will help you exploit when it moves through your income sector from 23rd May to 25th May. While something that every four weeks can sharpen your nose for money and act as a trigger, this time with Mars in his early days in your career sector.
