Venus in Leo awakens your inner child – your star sign’s tarot love horoscope

Your inner child is activated by this transit so old habits or needs or behaviours may surface. Don’t suppress them. Listen to them, talk to yourself, ask what’s up, seek to find out what’s being missed or not provided.

You have needs. Your inner child is never that far away from the scene and drives much of your emotion.

Let the tarot guide you as to what your inner child needs from your relationships during this Venus in Leo season…

Aries

March 21 to April 20

Tarot card for Aries for Venus in Leo: King of Cups

Meaning: Your inner child is asking for someone to listen, care, and maybe even offer advice that makes sense and feels right. You want a rock to lean on emotionally and take the weight, let your pour out your stresses and strains without judgment or recrimination.

There’s a welling pool of feeling within that you have to release. Find an empathetic friend and tell them everything, let it all go.

Taurus

April 21 to May 21

Tarot card for Taurus for Venus in Leo: Eight of Cups

Meaning: Your inner child is asking for permission to give up on something that is not working out as you hoped.

Deep down, you know this. Deep down, you are scared of admitting defeat so you carry on pushing… but it’s a dead end, Taurus. Let it go. Stop trying. Move on to something else or face more outbursts and frustration.

There are better opportunities ahead if only you’ll stop dragging this dead weight with you.    

Gemini

May 22 to June 21

Tarot card for Gemini for Venus in Leo: Ten of Cups

Meaning: Your inner child is asking for love. You tend to play it cool, cover emotion with humour, and refuse to be vulnerable in front of anyone.

Enough of this play-acting. Be real. Share your true feelings. Show them you care. Ask for attention. Be in love, be loved, be loving. You are a loyal and passionate partner and friend and you’re at your best when you just let this shine out of you, when you release your softer self.

Cancer

June 22 to July 23

Tarot card for Cancer for Venus in Leo: Nine of Cups

Meaning: Your inner child is asking for belief. There is a dream or wish that you hope for and nurture but maybe you sabotage it or don’t believe it can come true. You get in your own way, you rationalise reasons it won’t work, you talk yourself out of believing in this.

Get out of the way, Cancer! Have faith. Make a plan of action to make this wish come true, it truly can. You are ready for this, you deserve this, and the Universe is going to gift you with good fortune. Believe in true love.

Leo

July 24 to August 23

Meaning: Your inner child is asking for peace and harmony. There has been tension, conflict, and pressure recently in your closest relationships and you’ve felt at odds with those you actually need to rely on and align with.

Come to resolutions, find compromises, agree to disagree, call a truce, bring things to a head and let them die down. You’ve been busy fighting and maybe gotten into the habit of it. Stop squabbling. Be quiet. Listen. Find peace.

Virgo

August 24 to September 23

You are seeking new friendships, and maybe a new romance, that lets you do all of this. Passion is a part of it, of course, but the desire to have adventures and explore the world with someone is a big pull too. You are a perceptive and creative person and you need a partner in crime to play with!

Libra

September 24 to October 23

Tarot card for Libra for Venus in Leo: The Fool

Meaning: Your inner child is asking for a fresh start, a clean slate, a new leaf. It’s time to turn the page in your relationship landscape and start over.

Maybe new people are needed, so welcome them in. Maybe some bonds have run their course and are turning negative, and can be pruned or cut. Maybe some connections have hit snags and issues which need attention, discussion, and processing.

Move things on. Change the scene. Freshen up the dynamics.

Scorpio

Sagittarius

November 23 to December 21

Tarot card for Sagittarius for Venus in Leo: Seven of Wands

Meaning: Your inner child is asking for protection. Something in a relationship is triggering an old vulnerability or tender spot. You feel attacked somehow and under pressure.

Fight back. Protect your interests. Withdraw from the relationship if it’s unhealthy or damaging, don’t put up with rubbish right now. Be a strong defender of your whole self and do what’s necessary to create a safe space and environment for you to thrive in.

Capricorn

Bring more play and adventure into your relationships, be humble and free-spirited, let others decide what you’re doing and lead the way. Invoke a few childhood hobbies or favourite pastimes.

Aquarius

January 22 to February 19

Tarot card for Aquarius for Venus in Leo: Nine of Wands

Meaning: Your inner child is asking for reassurance. There’s a relationship issue or obstacle you want to tackle but you’re worried it will blow up in your face. I promise it won’t!

Allay your fears, mitigate the risks, and get past this hump. You can handle whatever happens. It won’t be bad. It can be resolved and repaired much easier than you think. Don’t spend time overthinking it, just get on with it.

Pisces

February 20 to March 20

Tarot card for Pisces for Venus in Leo: Queen of Wands

Meaning: Your inner child is asking for a confidence boost. Something in your relationship landscape has knocked your confidence recently and your self esteem. Maybe a harsh word or passive aggressive attitude.

You are very sensitive to others. So, go hang out with your cheerleaders, your inspiring people, you caring friends and family. You are loved and adored. Remind yourself of that and that one little hard interaction doesn’t change all of that good stuff!
