Signing yourself up for a new goal regularly may seem like a crazy idea. But if you put it in your calendar, then instead of being worried about what you’re doing—and wondering what you could do that’s new—you will look at your calendar and realize it’s time for you to discover and embrace a new goal.
My instincts are so strong, I trust them—and am always glad I did
Life is full of questions. That is something you can’t argue with, but the tricky thing is that, as a Leo, and one of the fixed signs of the zodiac, the signs born in the middle of each season, you thrive on stability. You like to know what you’re going to eat during the day, you like to know what you’re going to wear. You like to go to the same restaurants—and possibly you even go on vacation to the same place.
While that’s comforting, every once in a while, it is vital that you have a shake-up, and it may well be that those around you are the ones who encourage you to do that. But that may end up with a power struggle, which you, as a Leo, always try to win. The secret is to realize that in allowing them to win—if you go along with what others want you to do—it is you who’s actually winning, because you are the one who will be benefiting.
The trick is to embrace the unknown and the unfamiliar and change. Do this in a way that doesn’t come naturally to you, but that, with a little effort and experimentation, you might not only develop a taste for, and you might realize just how much you benefit.
This could aide you in every aspect of your life—from the way you feel about yourself to the way you feel about others, and even to the way you feel about getting up in the morning.
Being one of the more fixed varieties of Leo, sometimes those around you seem to be determined to disrupt you and your life. They may come across as a bit of a bully. Yet deep down, you know they have your best interest at heart. Recognize that and let them win.
As a luxury-loving Leo, when it comes to taking care of yourself, that is, eating well and being fit, you like to be cared for properly. However, you also tend to develop a routine. The secret to this is to make that routine exotic, which means going far away to places that offer you proper Leo luxury.
Signing yourself up for a new goal regularly may seem like a crazy idea. But if you put it in your calendar, then instead of being worried about what you’re doing—and wondering what you could do that’s new—you will look at your calendar and realize it’s time for you to discover and embrace a new goal.
Few things are more exasperating than having decided to get all the facts in order, only to discover the actual situation you’re dealing with has changed. And judging by the current set-up, there will be yet more changes. Knowing that, waste no time on details. For now, focus on the big picture.
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.
