Leo Season

Welcome to LEO Season 🦁, my favorite of all my time! My Sun is in Leo and with many friends and family with this placement or just Leo in their charts, I am surrounded by bold, courageous, big hearted leaders 💕 and main character energy. It is this time of year that I feel most alive and like my truest self can be revealed. Self doubt bubbles to the surface and my Leo Self laughs boisterously 😂 at how ridiculous it sounds. Obstacles come forward, and I am able to tap into the deeper part of me that is resilient. Risky choices are laid out before me and my courageous self steps up to the plate.

When the sun is placed in Leo, which it is in western astrology from july 22-august 22, our courageous, bold and resilient characteristics ✨ become our identity, since that it what the Sun represents. But as we know, we live in a world of polarity, so before we are courageous, we are usually faced with a challenge that will put us in a state of fear 🫣. During this month, notice what fears show up for you and what boulders come crashing down before you. They are not meant to impede on your future goals, but evolve you to strengthen your courage muscle 💪🏻 and build a greatest sense of resiliency.

Leo's are also known for being prideful 🌈. While having pride in your work is essential for growth, sometimes your ego can take it to the next level. You may think you are too good for an opportunity, relationship or experience and block yourself 😤 from a manifestation you are calling in. So how do you know if you are lowering your self worth for something or need to stay humble and accept what is in front of you?

Boundaries, boundaries, boundaries ✌🏼. If you have to forego things that are a non-negotiable for you, then, it is not meant for you. It can feel uncomfortable saying no to an opportunity that looks good. But if you are only accepting because you feel like you can't have something better, then there is deeper work to be done.

On the other hand, if the experience isn't exactly what you had originally visioned, it doesn't necessarily mean it is not for you 🧐. Extract the essence of what you really want in your future. Does this experience give you exactly what you need even if it shows up not originally how you intended? Are you still able to remain in your power when you accept this new opportunity 😊?

What's amazing about Leo Season right now, is that not only is the sun in Leo 🌞, but also Venus. Those who have Venus in Leo 🤍🤍, natally, is for people who have huge hearts that love to give generously and sometimes in grandiose ways 🎁. You may feel yourself getting swept up in a new romance during this time (July 11- Aug 4) or wanting to treat your partner in extravagant ways. Lean in to your 'extra-ness' 💁🏼‍♀️💰 in relationships and watch them flourish. Leo's also loveee appreciation🥳 and adoration, so drown them in the love language they need most right now.

Here is some spiritual wisdom for each energy type this Leo Season.

Pittas for Leo Season

This is your time to SHINE. Leo is a fire sign, ruled by the Sun, which is the element you are extremely akin to. Opportunities are buzzing all around you and creativity flows like an ocean wave current. You will have no problem making yourself busy during this season. In order to avoid overstimulation and burnout, be sure to carve out alone time and space for your non-negotiables. Remember, if your plans or opportunities impede on these, it is a no for you. Although saying no to fun plans can be devastating, remind yourself what benefits you receive from doing so. 

This is also a season where your inner critic may feel like her volume is just a little too high. Your desire for external validation may hit a peak, so it is important to keep your inner voice in check on what really matters. Sprinkle in a daily gratitude practice and time for more positive self talk throughout your day to tame your inner beast. The more you validate yourself of your success, you will release the need for others to give it.

Vatas for Leo Season

The cold emotion of fear is something you are not a stranger too. Lucky for you, it is Leo Season, where your inner lioness can roar at the sight of any little silly fear! This is a season to face your fear of being heard, claim your confident voice and share your truth with the world, no matter how 'out there' you feel for doing so. As scary as it may be, the more you own your eccentricity, the more aligned you will feel. 

This is also a season for letting your creativity run wild and I mean W I L D. Do something that requires some courage, as it will surely lead to much success and praise. No need to be apologetic here. The lioness does not care to please, she knows her worth and sits on her throne proudly.

Kaphas for Leo Season

If you have been feeling scared to take a leap forward, you can use the fiery energy of Leo Season to jump right through! Write down all your self doubts on a piece of paper and burn it in a fireproof bowl to help you release what is holding you back. You can use this metaphor whenever a self doubt comes up in your life and visualize a strong flame within you dissolving your doubts and worries.

Another way to maximize on this fiery energy is using it to assert your boundaries. If something bothers you, say it. If you have a want or need, speak it. Setting boundaries now when you are your most confident will make life easier in the months to come to execute your goals. Part of what holds you back from moving forward is pouring your energy into others and not yourself. So, if you setup a strong structure to put you first, making moves on your goals will feel like a cake walk.
