Every once in a while, you need to review your goals. You don’t think of this because you are so busy achieving them. However, if it seems to be the same goals again and again, it may be because it is time to say farewell to those and explore, then select and embrace a new set. You will be glad you did.
Asking for help doesn’t come naturally to me, but when others offer, I accept instantly
You are a fire sign, and therefore, very active, but also, your mind works overtime. It is a bit fiery, too. So while you have a busy body, you also have a busy head, all of which raises questions about when to stop, when to pause and reward yourself, when to rest and relax, and when to stop entirely.
Those questions are important ones, because often, you live life at such a pace you don’t even think of stopping. This isn’t just about rewarding yourself or letting others share their pride in you or admire what you’ve done, but it’s also about reviewing what you’re doing. The ironic thing is, while you, as a Leo, are probably a high achiever, you are also anxious about looking around you and considering whether somebody else may be doing something more interesting than you are.
Rather than envying them, talk to them about it. This is the real challenge for you: to recognize that the world is full of people who are doing different things. And while it is important for you to be proud of what you’re pursuing and achieving, and of your life with others, it is also vital that you share that with others and you hear what they have to say. Allow those around you—friends, family, and loved ones—to be your greatest teachers, and it will deepen the relationship for all of you.
You wouldn’t think that you’d have to learn to enjoy life with those you care about, but as a Leo and somebody who tends to be out there doing things, it actually is important for you to pause and appreciate how dear certain individuals are to you. This may be family, this may be friends, this may even be colleagues whose company you enjoy. Whoever it is, appreciate them deeply, and let them know you do.
For you, feeling well and taking care of yourself may have begun with simply being fit. But your particular variety of Leo nature needs to achieve a balance. This has to do with exercising your mind as much as your activities, which in turn may take you into areas such as martial arts or even yoga.

It isn’t until you encounter somebody who has no interest in being diplomatic that you realize how important diplomacy is. Yet the individual in question responds to forthright situations by nature, and consequently, needs to be spoken to in that manner. Adopt that approach, and everything else will be easy.
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.
