As a Leo, it is highly desirable for you to understand the influence
not only of your ruling planet, the Sun, but also the effect of
the other solar elements on your life. Understanding all these influences
and knowing when they will occur, means that you can cooperate with
their positive energies at certain times and avoid their negative
influence, at others.
The influence of the solar elements combine to provide the astrological
reading for a particular day, and the nature of the reading will
be greatly influenced by the dominant planet on that day as follows:
The Sun:
 |
|
The Sun, as your ruling planet, will always have the dominant
influence on your life, and the planets that follow provide
the secondary influence. The influence of the Sun includes
creativity, warmth, affection, self-esteem and the capacity
to enjoy life, as well as the immense vitality, stamina and
magnanimity that is traditionally associated with the classic
Leonine personality. On the dark side, natural self-esteem
may turn into pomposity.
|
The Moon:
 |
|
The Light Moon can heighten Leo's innate enthusiasm and the expression of positive energies, especially in the areas of leadership and organization and ardent sexual drive. However, the Moon is also associated with fluctuations and emotionality and during a period of insecurity, it may help spark the expression of negative energies in displays of a dogmatic mindset or arrogance.
The Dark Moon's influence is strongest when the Moon is on the same side of the Earth as the Sun. This is a potent combination for the sun driven Leo, and Leo's will need to guard against inappropriate self-expression.
|
Mercury:
 |
|
Mercury can serve to enhance your emotional energy and organizational
skills and your powers of concentration. However, in less
favorable conditions, it may negatively influence your tendencies
towards stubbornness and encourage a dictatorial stance.
|
Venus:
 |
|
Venus can increase your desire for indulging in the good
life, and may heighten your tendency to 'grand stand' or create
a scene. In advantageous circumstances, you can use the influence
of Venus to opt for diplomacy over bombast and begin to express
your appreciation and loyalty to work mates and loved ones.
|
Mars:
 |
|
Mars fits well with your organizational abilities, enjoyment
of life (especially your sex life), and the positive expression
of emotion, but where Mars has an influence, your tendency
to 'stage a scene' is increased.
|
Jupiter:
 |
|
Jupiter's influence may encourage you to 'show off' or become
bombastic, but in better circumstances, enhances your innate
optimism and expansive generosity.
|
Saturn:
 |
|
Saturn's influence brings a serious mien and may dampen down
your infectious approach to life, but this is unlikely to
be a serious problem for you. Saturn can enhance your intrepid
nature when things get tough, and help you to heed your 'inner
voice' when it counsels caution.
|
Uranus:
 |
|
Uranus may increase your capacity to lead and your independent
thought processes, but you may need to be alert to your tendency
towards arrogance. Uranus may have a somewhat disruptive influence
and you can experience stress. Disruption may bring significant
change, which is not always a bad thing.
|
Neptune:
 |
|
Neptune may influence your proclivity to dramatic expression,
and if it features in your birth reading, it can serve to
enhance your creative imagination. Neptune is also associated
with formulating your ideals and your dreams, and with your
spiritual development.
