Tempting as it is to stick to certain personal goals and achievements that are important, the trick is to find a balance between those and the individuals with whom you are pursuing those goals, or possibly even who are challenging you. In every case, recognize how much you are benefiting from them.
Last-minute ideas, plans, and passions can turn an ordinary day into a glittering event
As a Leo and a fire sign, you have a talent for living life well—and not only do you manage to look great and live abundantly, you also manage to accumulate the good things that come from a life well lived, from memories to, often, gifts from others.
While this collection of both experiences and objects can be rewarding, at the same time, there is a sense that you’re carrying baggage around.
That isn’t the most important thing in life, except you can’t quite define what it is. That is partly because you’re living in a period during which people think so much about possessions and objects and clothes that they forget about the core meaning to life—which, of course, is your inner world, your feelings. This could be your feelings for others, but even more, it’s about your feelings for yourself, and that part of your nature that also reaches for something higher and more compelling.
And this is part of your challenge as a Leo, who on one hand,has lived, and is living an exciting life, but who also recognizes that there must be something deeper, perhaps something that is less easily defined.
Make that your goal, make that awareness your journey, and not only will you learn a lot each day, you will enrich your life in a way objects never could.
As you begin carefully to choose those with whom you spend time, you will also begin to realize that, while some people are merely a distraction, others add to your life in ways you are only beginning to understand. And that may make them some of the most important people in your life.
While you can focus on life’s celebrations, you can also do something different. You can take another approach to your well-being and make every day a party, a well-being party—one during which you do things that will make you feel better at the end of the day than you did at the beginning of it.
Tempting as it is to stick to certain personal goals and achievements that are important, the trick is to find a balance between those and the individuals with whom you are pursuing those goals, or possibly even who are challenging you. In every case, recognize how much you are benefiting from them.
If ever there were a time when it was essential to be cautious of those who are manipulative or who never think of others, it’s now. True, they aren’t always easy to spot. Still, if you think back to other individuals who had those traits, you’ll find it easier to recognize those who are similar in the here and now.
Leo: JULY 22 – AUGUST 21
Ruler: The Sun
Symbol: The Lion
Element: Fire
Flower: Marigold
Whatever you’re doing, you Leos have style. Being ruled by the Sun, your magnetism comes naturally, and being fire signs, you’re usually juggling your busy calendar while charming others. However, when you’re relaxing, you’ll do it with the conviction of your symbol, the lion. Your flower is marigold; your spice, golden saffron; and your trees are the heady, scented bay and the olive. Your stone is gold topaz, or simply wearing gold.
