The Basics

With the Moon in Leo, your emotional nature is closely tied to your sense of dignity and a strong desire for recognition. You have a natural flair for the dramatic, and tend to express your feelings in a bold and theatrical manner. Your self-esteem and sense of self-worth are significant motivators of your emotions, and you feel most fulfilled when you are acknowledged and praised for your accomplishments.

Your creative spark is a driving force behind your passions, and you may be drawn to careers in the arts, entertainment, or other fields that allow you to express yourself creatively. However, you must be aware that your desire for attention and admiration can sometimes manifest as a sense of entitlement and a need to dominate others emotionally. To achieve balance, you must strive to be gracious and generous with others, while also valuing your own sense of worth.
