On July 22, 2021, the Sun moves from the watery, cardinal sign of Cancer into the fiery, fixed sign of Leo. In some ways both signs have some characteristics that might be considered similar, such as the need for Cancer to nurture and its sensitivity, although Leo would change the nurturing qualities into caring and the strong desire to assist those in need. Leo is still considered sensitive and even emotional but can control these emotions easier than the ever-sensitive Cancer.
Most Leo individuals enjoy the limelight and enjoy being the center of attention. They truly enjoy being of assistance although can be a little too controlling for some, but their intensions are always good. They often feel they know what is best for others and do not mind sharing their ideas. Leos are willing to help others but also would like some recognition for their efforts. They try very hard and would appreciate a pat on their back for their efforts.
Leo can be dramatic and will not go unnoticed unless there are other factors in the chart suggesting otherwise. Leo individuals are strong-willed, stubborn, and often are found in a leadership role. If they are not in a leadership role, they likely wish they were. In many ways they feel as though they could do as good or better than their superiors. Approval from their superiors goes a long way and in turn a Leo individual can have respect for these superiors if they are motivated and success is part of their story.
Many Leo individuals are dynamic and energetic in their approach to life. They want to experience and live. They have a strong need to be part of any experience as they are not a spectator. Live and let live might be one of their slogans and failure is not an option. If you hurt a Leo, they will forgive but they will not forget. Hurt runs deep as they are ruled by their heart.
When in love they love with all their heart and their affection can run deep. They may have many suitors and those that are meek or timid are often drawn to Leo. Leo are a force to be recon with and there is very little that is halfway about them. As a friend they can be very loyal and their manners are considered stately. Leo is the lion, king of the jungle.
Those with their Sun in the later degrees of Leo may find this year that they may have had to make many adjustments and it will not have been easy. They have their Sun quincunx to both Pluto which speaks to the lessons of power and non-conformity and Neptune which has to do with degrees of vagueness and uncertainty. The placement of these two transiting planets will define the areas of life which are being activated.
Saturn has also been in opposition to those with their Sun in Leo in the early to mid-degrees. Oppositions always speak of others having an impact in what is taking place and Saturn although restrictive and known as the teacher, does insist on lessons that over time bring more solid ground often after some challenging conditions. In many cases we can certainly look to Covid for some of these conditions, although due to the challenging conditions from these outer planets Leo may have had a more difficult time than most.
Happy solar return to all Leo individuals.
