Moon in Leo
Modern
You feel generously and you need your care to be noticed and met, which is not vanity, it is how your heart knows it landed. You give loyalty in bulk and bruise when it is taken for granted. The work is steadiness when no one is clapping. At your best you make love feel warm, brave, and unmistakable.
Traditional (Hellenistic)
Leo is the Sun's fixed-fire domicile, so the Moon here feels through warmth, pride, and the wish to be seen and to give generously. The tradition notes the night-luminary sitting in the day-star's house. The gift is a big, loyal heart; the cost is a pride that bruises when the warmth is not returned.
Lean in — Give the warmth freely and ask plainly for it back.
Watch for — Sulk when the love you gave goes unremarked.
