The Sun is lord of Leo as fire
expressed in a fixed form. It is through the sign of
Leo that each chart is illumined by the mighty Sun.
The fixed quality of fire allows for the path of Leos
to be illumined in a steadfast and inspirational way.
Leo is of Sattwic nature; able to be inspired toward
the things that are uplifting and that bring truth to
themselves and others. The natural power and charisma
of the Sun allows the native to attract what they need
to blaze a trail through life and be recognized for
it. The ability to sacrifice the lower forms of ego to
the higher forms of Self and truth are being learned
when the Soul enters Leo. Through generosity and
humility the inherently magnanimous nature of the Sun
is learning to emerge. This is the Sun that shares its
rays with all of creation. As being the source of all
light in the chart the Leo native is innately aware of
their own power and the power of others and may be
tempted to turn others into satellites, living to be
surrounded by weaker personalities who merely reflect
back a lower Self image. But as long as the Leo
functions merely to feel the lower personality, the
Sun may make them a petty tyrant and one whose large
appearance will likely express the largest of egos.
When the Leo remembers the highest Sun blazing forth
within, their naturally generous nature provides the
warming and uplifting light, which allows all to shine
in their presence.
The Leo native feels vulnerable letting
go of their powerful self- image and personality as
well as relaxing into life's ups and downs as shown by
the Moon ruling the 12th house. They will
overcompensate by projecting a strong, confident and
secure personality as shown by the Sun ruling the 1st
house. They may surround themselves with those weaker
in order to bolster this false sense of self -
importance and power.
