What Uranus in Leo means for you

Uranus was in Leo for people born around 1955 to 1962, and it will be for people born from 2039 to 2046.

Leo is about creativity, play, romance and the self, and Uranus changes all of these. The earlier generation grew up with rock and roll and television stars. They made individuality a value in itself.

If Uranus is close to your personal planets, you need to express yourself in your own way. You resist being given a fixed role. You may be attracted to performance, art or leadership that does things differently.

The challenge is ego, because being different can turn into needing attention. The strength is the courage to create something truly your own and to encourage others to do the same.

Leo is opposite Uranus’s own sign. This is called its detriment. Uranus has to work harder here to show its qualities.
