Leo Ascendant

The Sun, ruler of your ascendant, endows you with some of your shine and you certainly never go unnoticed. You are ambitious, generous, tenacious and, above all, proud.

You have great self-confidence, like to be admired and do all you can to get other people’s attention. Irrespective of your age, you are always young at heart. You tend to over-dramatise the events in your life.

You enjoy directing people and situations and having the leading role in all aspects of your life. You are even capable of plotting, in order to be the ‘leader’. Although you are generous by nature, you prefer to use underhand means, even for the most minor disagreements. You pay great attention to your external appearance and personal space, in this way creating a pleasant atmosphere that can have a positive psychological impact on both yourself and others.

You tend to use the ‘markers’ of physical gestures as a way of expressing yourself to other people, either to entice them, to convince them or even to threaten them. Because the concept of love and, in particular, having others love you is the foundation stone of your ‘ego’, you instinctively use body language to attract the attention of those around you.

You are not interested in examining your identity introspectively but aim for people’s acceptance through continuous collaboration, as this increases your inner strengths. You aspire to working with other people towards humanistic, political or educational goals, in order to have the chance to distinguish yourself and be validated in the eyes of others.

You feel an urgent need to create. Whether it’s a work of art, a romantic involvement or a child. This need to create is related to the construction of the ‘ego’ and the sense of confirmation that success brings you. Above and beyond all, what you really seek is to lay solid foundations for your desires, your aspirations, your goals and your own self, to ‘put down roots’ in an environment that is your own ‘home’.

Love and faith are the driving forces that motivate you in everything you do, from even the simplest acts to your greatest efforts in your personal and professional spheres. When you feel that someone is in love with you and has truly earned your trust, then you devote yourself to them heart and soul. To love and be loved gives you the strength to do anything!
