In Leo, the Sun wants to leave a visible signature and share the warmth of what it creates.

Generosity enjoys being seen. With the Sun in Leo, personal expression seeks a stage, however small, where enthusiasm and creativity receive a response. Pride supports loyalty, but also makes the feeling of going unnoticed particularly sensitive, even among people whose affection is real.
