QUICK & EASY ASTROLOGY
SUN IN LEO (July 23 - August 22)
The Sun is at “Home” in the vibrant sign of Leo, so one can confidently say that Leos are here to shine one way or another. Those born under this sign have a great opportunity to be positive, warm, affectionate, and generous thus expressing their inner light to the world. How easily a Leo manages to explore and express these abilities will depend on the level of self-esteem held within. Innate gifts of creativity and social grace are not rare, which can assist greatly in achieving whatever goals the Leo sun sets for themselves. Confidence and a willingness to lead often come naturally to those born here. Because of a need to be at the center, much like the ruling planet itself, a Leo is likely to thrive on attention and approval. If exercised in moderation, with discipline and mindfulness, this can be productive. However, if taken to extremes, this can manifest as a constant search for recognition from others that ultimately reveals an inner tension around the individual’s ego and self-value. It is not rare that beneath a seemingly confident and sunny exterior there is hiding an insecure lion cub. When not in alignment with highest ideals and motivations, Leos can become overtly selfish and dramatic, angered by the idea that they are not receiving something they feel they are entitled to. This sign usually grants its carrier a strong romantic nature, leading Leos to enjoy grand gestures and big gifts surrounding their affectionate pursuits. A Leo is likely to always be a child at heart, with a spontaneity and vivacity that keeps them perpetually young at heart. The ultimate lesson for those born under this sign is learning how to lead from the inner core as opposed to allowing aspects that crave recognition take center stage.
