Leo
First, what does Leo even mean? Leo is the fifth zodiac sign, fire sign, fixed sign and masculine sign.
Leo Rising aka Leo Ascendant
The first house is all about you. You are the embodiment of Leo. You are expressive, independent, creative, affectionate and warmhearted. You would love taking a center stage and have enough charisma to grab others’ attention to you. You are unique, joyful, generous and strong. You would like to stand out and not be treated as one of the average Joes.
The first house rules your physical appearance. There are many other variables that shape your physical trait such as the placement of the Sun, aspects to the Sun, and planet in the first house if any. Generally speaking, people with Leo rising tend to have a large body with strong bone structure and well-defined muscles. Facial features are well-defined too. Like any other fire sign, you would find it easy to build up muscles. Physically and figuratively, you have a big heart.
You have a strong presence in your aura. It’s your energy that draws others’ attention. Leo is symbolized by a lion. Like a lion, you would have noticeable hairstyle. You would like to accentuate your hair in fashion styling. Your skin tone can be a bit reddish or orange.
Leo represents the heart and spine in a physical body. These areas are more sensitive than other areas of your body, so you need to pay extra attention to them.
The first house also shows your life path. Love is your key success factor. By allowing yourself to follow your heart’s desire, you will find the fast track to reach your destination. The more you live your life with optimism, love, affection and pure joy, the more you can thrive in multiple areas of life.
When you are emotionally and energetically aligned with who you are, you can be easily inspired and entertained. You can make bold statements and have a strong presence. You would make grand gestures and big promises.
Your optimistic attitude makes you a bright person. Your leadership quality shines from within, when you can do what you love. You can easily express your love, exchanging affection with loved ones. However, when you are out of inner balance, you would express the negative traits of Leo. In this case, you are prone to coming across as arrogant, egocentric, pushy, domineering and self-righteous. You may think that the world exists for your convenience.
You would tend to have a sensitive ego. Even though you make strong impressions as an independent, ambitious figure, you can easily get hurt when others invalidate your feelings. It is important for you to feed your soul, not your ego. As you increase your self-awareness, you can better discern what lights you up in healthy ways.
In this lifetime, you are aspiring to acquire wealth and status. You would be attracted to anything glamorous, noble, shiny, fun, and pleasurable. You are learning to enjoy your life, revealing who you truly are, and help others discover their own gifts by being a living example of who you truly prefer to be. It’s important for you to develop your identity and share your gifts with generosity.
The position of your Sun shows you in which areas of life holds the key to improve your overall life, develop your character and how you can best express who you are.
