Sun in Leo, 2026
Sun enters Leo on Wednesday 22 July 2026, 19:13 UTC, which is in your time zone. It leaves for Virgo on Sunday 23 August 2026, 02:19 UTC, after 31 days.
Leo begins its solar month at 19:13 UTC on 22 July 2026, when the Sun moves on from Cancer. It stays for 31 days, entering Virgo on 23 August at 02:19 UTC. Leo is a fixed fire sign, and in the tradition it is the one sign ruled by the Sun itself, so the Sun is considered at home here.
The tradition treats Leo as the sign of creativity, play, generosity and the wish to be seen, with a fixed loyalty to what it loves. Astrologers read the Sun's passage as a season that emphasizes self-expression, children, romance and pleasure taken openly. Its shadow side is said to be pride. A modest suggestion is to make or share something of your own, a drawing, a meal or a song, without waiting for it to be perfect.
