If you were born between July 22 and August 23, congratulations. You are incarnated as one of the most courageous and brave signs of the zodiac. The fiery elemental of Leo, the so-called Zodiac Lion King. Natural leaders with a big heart but a tough exterior. It’s time for Leos to embrace their eccentricity and bring it out. Individualism will soon emerge as Earth’s main theme and is here to stay, so don’t feel guilty, lioness. Be yourself. Really you. It’s your job.
The natural gift of a lioness
In astrology, Leo is the 5th sign within the zodiac wheel, next to Sagittarius and Aries, it is the fixed sign of the Fire elements. And as the fixed sign, it’s here to maintain order, uphold justice, and in the ever-changing, fast-adapting world we find ourselves in, Leos are here to maintain the energy of stability, tradition, and structure.
They are ruled by the sun and are examples of solar qualities such as centrality, the radiance of joy and the steadfastness of the Self. Lions are here to lead the way in the maze of confused souls. They are here to exemplify what it means to be unapologetically yourself and walk the path of your future self, but most importantly, live without constant doubt. Without feeling guilty about being yourself and becoming more of yourself. Just be as you are. This is a Leo specialty.
Because you see that lower vibrational emotions, such as shame and guilt, hold us very behind in our spiritual evolution and are considered the lowest of the low within the emotional vibrational spectrum. And in the future, these kinds of emotions are what removes Mother Earth from her auric field. Feeling guilty for speaking your truth. You are ashamed to be your true self. This behavior leads to victim consciousness and that is the ultimate planetary virus. To not accept your true nature. To not be responsible for yourself and instead constantly leak from others. “Poor little me, poor little me.” Not good. Time for it to end. And Leos are here to eliminate this victim-like energy, through their example. Through their inspiring actions. Because of their simple way of owning everything they are, in every moment. It is very rare for a Leo to hold guilty or shameful vibes in their DNA. They are much more likely to hold other “negative” vibrations such as anger or willpower, but at least these are actionable emotions that can lead to a positive outcome. Unlike guilt or shame, which are passive in nature. This is important for a Leo to understand, because most other zodiac signs still carry such emotions (guilt, shame). So Leos are leading the way in this regard, helping the rest of us to transmute these aspects of our personality that most Leos have naturally transcended already.
What to focus on this summer as a Leo
There are many things you could do this summer, but we recommend that you go for it. Whether you finally build that social media account you’ve been thinking about for the past few months, or you do more of what puts you in the flow state and awakens your genius, it doesn’t matter. It’s about going public. Become the main point for others to observe and be influenced by. And this will have a double effect, a bit like the saying ‘two birds with one stone’.
- You will feel an insurmountable amount of joy when you finally develop the guts to walk your dharma, walk your path and go all in with that which brings you joy and makes you feel alive.
- Others will benefit from your energy. It rubs off. As one individual shines by being joyfully immersed in his craft, others are inspired and receive an internal transmutation that leads them to their own genius and gifts.
In this way you not only develop yourself, but you also gradually inspire others.
In addition, we recommend adopting a contemplative and adaptive attitude when it comes to this profession of yours, this passion. Allowing your consciousness to be internally situated so that you may be able to judge certain pivot points to occur along the way or certain roadblocks to be avoided.
You are here to be an example to the outside world, which is central, but you should not let your consciousness get caught up there. Keep it focused on the inner worlds and your self-growth. You do this by always returning to yourself, regardless of the experience, and never letting your consciousness rest on matter for too long without an inner, contemplative pause.
What not to focus on as a Leo this summer
Romance! Yes. You heard right. Don’t focus on acquiring a boyfriend or girlfriend, on dates, and the like. Focus on being the real you. Focus on your goals. Focus on your growth. Focus on your genius and your dream. Let joy and love flow in and out of your life naturally, without you seeking or clinging to it. Nothing is truly yours and nothing will continue with you. We are all just passengers traveling through it. The Leo energy is one of the few signs that actually has the natural intensity and direction to make that adventure happen. So don’t waste yourself in the religious pursuit of ephemeral things. Don’t waste yourself giving your all to something that won’t be there for you. Give everything that is always there. Give everything you can always rely on. Give your all, give your loyalty to what is loyal and will always be yours. And that is not a man or a woman, but something much deeper, much more loving than you can even imagine. Perhaps a topic for another article. But it starts with being focused on the right essence. On the right community. Only then can it appear in someone’s life.
And who knows. Maybe you get romance as a by-product of your focused path. Guess what? These are the best varieties. Love for love’s sake creates distortion. Same as romance. It’s not to chase. It is a by-product of who you are and your courage to show yourself to the world. And as a by-product, it’s not something you hang onto. It is something that you experience and eventually let go of. Clinging to nothing. Connect with nothing or no one outside your inner Source. It is an obligation that is not an obligation. Romance expressed is not romance. Love that needs to be revalidated daily through verbal comfort is not true love.
Be the wild bird you’ve always been
To remind. You don’t take anything with you when the time comes. So why cling to it?
Instead, leave your mark. Simply explained in the words of Carl Jung from Black Book 7:
“You’re too hot,
how can you radiate love?
You have it in you.
It does not radiate to others.
Look at your goal and not at love.
Then you radiate love.”
So then the question actually arises: what is your goal?
If you could choose one thing to achieve within the next five years, what would it be?
If you achieved it within the next five years, what would be the one thing that would make everything else easier or unnecessary?
What about in the next 3 years? 1 year? 6 months? 1 month? 1 week? Tomorrow? Today? Straight away?
Unlock your heart. Claim it back. And assess its needs and wants. Give yourself permission. And now get off of you and go get that thing. Dominate what you do. Therefore a lion is a lion. It’s quiet, chilling in the jungle in the shade, but every now and then the hyenas or other lions get a little snappy or do whatever, forgetting that there’s always order in the jungle. And if they stay too spicy or do too much of anything, the lion rises, from his shady tree and with one loud “ROOOOOOOAR” – silence. Everything becomes calmer. Everyone is reminded. People become obedient again. So.. my friend…
Are you ready to roar?
The jungle needs its king.
