Upcoming
Sun in Leo, 2028
Sun enters Leo on Saturday 22 July 2028, 06:54 UTC, which is in your time zone. It leaves for Virgo on Tuesday 22 August 2028, 14:01 UTC, after 31 days.
Arriving from Cancer on 22 July 2028 at 06:54 UTC, the Sun enters Leo, the sign it rules in the tradition. It remains in this fixed fire sign for 31 days, until it moves on to Virgo on 22 August 2028 at 14:01 UTC. The Sun never turns retrograde, so the passage is steady from start to finish.
The tradition reads Leo as the sign of creativity, play, generosity, pride and the wish to be seen. With the Sun in its own sign, astrologers treat these themes as especially clear: self-expression, children, romance and anything made for the pleasure of making it. The shadow side, in traditional terms, is a strong need for applause. A modest suggestion is to set aside an hour for a creative pastime, with no audience in mind.
