Leo: The Lion

© Lisa Furze


Today, (July 22nd 2014) the Sun has entered the brilliant sign of Leo.  Happy Birthday month to all you Leos out there! I'd like to talk about the sign of Leo and the personality of a  Leo Sun because of the Sun's descent into Leo. 

The Sun is at home in Leo because it is Leo's ruling planet. It gets to shine in all it's glory when it is in Leo and that is why people with their Sun in Leo can seem like a burst of sunshine to others. Leo is the 5th sign in the zodiac and represents the fifth stage of evolution through the signs. Cancer is the first sign where we discover emotions and also the first sign where we take others into account and want to emotionally connect to them. After we have discovered our connection to others through Cancer, we want to be approved by them in Leo. This is the reason why Leos can seem to always want constant acknowledgment. They just want to be accepted by others, to know that they are special. Leos want to be in the spotlight and to have an audience because of this need for approval. They crave attention. It's a good idea for Leo's though to not put too much energy on getting attention and to instead focus it on uplifting others to help them to shine as you wish to do. Leos have great potential to uplift others and by doing so they can get the approval they desire. Leos can be very generous towards others and many of them have big hearts. They also make loyal friends and lovers most of the time. 
Leos have quite a knack for self expression, a dramatic flare and are usually very creative. These traits can spark a Leo's interest in the arts, particularly performing arts which a lot of the time they can be quite good at. They can channel their desire to be the center of attention by literally being in the spotlight! In fact anyone who has personal planets in Leo probably has some great potential in the arts. Leadership is another area where Leos can be in the spotlight. They usually have a very regal, noble air about them and make excellent leaders. Leos can also be pretty great at sports as fire signs are known for their energy and vitality. Whatever a Leo chooses to do though, I can assure you that they will shine! The Sun dazzles and shines in the center of the solar system just as Leos radiantly shine and dazzle in the center of all our lives. They are part of the Sun with sunshine in their hair and the rays in their hearts. 

I'd like to mention that Jupiter is conjunct the Sun right now, so that's really lucky for us all, particularly for Leos. If you'd like to know where you could have a bit a luck in your life check out your natal chart to see where Leo is in it. Remember in this month of Leo to shine like a beacon of light! ~
