KTZ Daily Scopes April – October 2023
Skymates, in honor of retrograde and eclipse season, KTZ is taking a break from offering daily scopes. We’re resting, regenerating, and re-imagining. That’s what retrograde and eclipse season is all about, and as astrologers, it’s important that we practice what we preach. We’ll still share weekly/monthly scopes with you during this break. Subscribe to KTZ’s email newsletter (KnowTheZodiac.com/newsletter) to know when daily scopes will be back. You can also order my book, Signs & Skymates, as well as KTZ’s digital products on our site to deepen your astro knowledge. Remember: you are your own astrologer. KTZ astrologers Adela, Nisha, and myself are here as guides, but the answers have always existed within you. Thanks for the love and support.

KnowLeo September ’23 Scope
Key themes: Refining your focus, what really matters, health and vitality, accessing empowerment
Dear Leo, you’re officially out of your solar season but that doesn’t mean the world has to feel any less magical!
Reminder of this, is Venus ending its retrograde by stationing direct in your sign (September 3rd). If life’s been feeling a little wonky over the last few weeks, know that this is completely natural. We’ve had a predominance of retrograde energy, as well as a few more along the way. Yet, just like the caterpillar entering a dark chrysalis of primordial goop and transformation – you too will emerge as an even more vibrant and flying butterfly.
There’s still a little more untying of knots to go though, and you’ll feel this with Jupiter beginning its retrograde (September 4th) through Taurus. Jupiter retrogrades are interesting, to say the least. Because this planet rules lived wisdom, you’re invited into broadening your perspectives on the world, specifically through experience. As well as lived wisdom, Jupiter rules how we interpret our unique worlds, and come to our own sense of meaning. This sense of meaning is totally individual, and (ideally) one that widens, grows and evolves alongside us.
With all of the above moving through your sector of wealth, finance and career – you’re invited to look at what areas feel stale. Where can you invite energies of expansion and movement into these spheres? And how? The good (or bad, depending on how you look at it) news is, there’s no rush to figure it out. You’ll be working with this retrograde all the way through to December 31st of this year.
Our new lunar cycle begins with a New Moon in Virgo (Sep 14th), which lands almost on top of Mercury concluding its retrograde (also through Virgo). This beautiful energy will feel clarifying and gently uplifting. Because it activates your sector of health and nature, it’ll be worth using the comforting cosmic vibes to nourish your body and nervous system. Virgo has a distinctly pragmatic element to it, so identify and use whatever tools work for you; perhaps a certain kind of tea, more (or even less) sleep, swapping to spring water and so on. New Moon energy always invites us into creating and seeding something new. What do you want the next four weeks to look like Leo?
On September 17th you’ll notice more challenging energies arise with Jupiter retrograde forming a square to Venus in your sign. This could manifest as a closed door, rejection or obstacle coming through. Here, you’re reminded of your innate sense of empowerment, which in so many ways comes from being able to adapt to your circumstances. Remember, if one door closes, it’s because you are meant to take a different turn. Even though as a fixed sign, it may feel natural to keep pushing and trying to squeeze something into a solution – know that this is a place where you can waste a lot of energy. Instead, try and channel this momentum into broadening your perspective and seeing any and all new options. Trust and honor that’s what meant for you, will be.
Besides, it will pass. The Aries Full Moon (September 29th) brings more playful vibes as it illuminates your sector of romance, pleasure and inner child energy. This will be a time where movement feels particularly nourishing, so I encourage you to spoil yourself your way, break up your routine, and perhaps visit a place that you’ve never been before…
About Leo
Element: Fire
Mode: Fixed
Ruler: The Sun
Where You’ll Find Them: At an audition, taking a selfie, or building an empire
What They Avoid: Waiting in line, dealing with paperwork, following orders
Leo, the fifth sign of the zodiac, is all about spreading love, light, and glamour in the world. Ruled by the Sun, Leos are the center of attention, even if they don’t try to be. There’s something about Leo that screams “Look at me!”, and makes everyone stop and stare in awe and fascination. Leo’s symbol is the lion, and they have that natural royal aura about them that makes them natural leaders, inspiring us all to be our brightest, strongest selves. If there’s one thing that’s clear about Leo, it’s that they’re full of passion, power and ambition. They dim their light for absolutely no one. It may take them a while to get to this level of self-confidence, though.
Leo thrives in a career where they have the freedom to do as they please. Leos make great presidents, CEOs, entrepreneurs, celebrities, artists, stylists, and creative directors. They are also quite adept politicians, skilled at the art of persuasion. Leos often appear to be super confident, even if it’s a front, and this often helps them get exactly where they need to be at rocket speed. Don’t get it twisted though — Leo knows that it takes hard work and dedication to get to the top of the professional ladder, and they’re willing to put in the work. It’s just that their patience will run thin if they’re dealing with people who aren’t as driven as they are. Leo’s team must really be supportive of their endeavors, or else they’ll search for something new.
As friends, Leos are often the life of the party. They’re the ones you call when you’re feeling down and need a night on the town to lift your spirits. Leo does have a huge ego and can be quite prideful at times though, and it can be difficult for Leo to admit when they’re wrong. But ultimately, despite their sometimes self-centered nature, Leos have big hearts and are extremely generous to those they love — sometimes to a fault. Leos must guard against frenemies or people who have a hidden agenda. Luckily, since Leo has such a positive outlook on life, they tend to attract more genuine supporters than secret haters. However, if they do attract negativity, Leo must be sure that their own shadow side, such as their legendary competitiveness and jealousy, aren’t wrecking havoc in their lives. The key is for them to admit when their shadow is creeping up.
When it comes to love, Leo goes all out when pursuing someone who interests them. They love the chase, but they also love to be chased. Leo doesn’t have to play hard to get — everyone knows they are hard to get, and that’s because everyone wants them. Leo should avoid getting too cocky or confident though, because sometimes that can also cause problems in relationships if their significant other feels like they’re not enough for Leo. Leo’s standards are royally high, and they’re constantly seeking to be in a power couple dynamic with someone who keeps them on their toes. Deeply sexual and passionate, loving a Leo is the ultimate whirlwind romance. Wild and spontaneous, Leo likes to call the shots both in and out of the bedroom. They’re the type of ride you never want to get off of.
