Mars In Leo
Leo the Lion knows that life without enjoyment is no life at all. All work and no play makes us all dull. So when Mars moves through this fun-loving sign, we’re encouraged to not just recognize the positive moments, but to actually make time for more happiness, excitement, and play.
Mars in Leo is also a time to follow your heart. Leo rules the heart, and his enthusiastic passion is rewarded during this transit. Adopting the Lion’s confidence and courage helps us pursue whatever it is that sets our souls on fire. Outside of Mars in Leo, there are few chances to reach this level of creativity and eagerness in our lives, which is why we must relish this opportunity!
While confidence is a good thing, overconfidence can lead to trouble, and that’s definitely a risk while Mars is in Leo. We think we deserve the rewards without doing the work, and deserve unwavering respect whether we give it or not. Leo is a stellar performer, but acting the part isn’t enough. If you want to be admired, you must be admirable. If you want to be a leader, you must lead. If you want to be respected, you must be respectable.
Enthusiasm is contagious while Mars is in Leo but so is drama. We crave more attention during this transit, and when we don’t get it, we feel offended. Because Leo is the sign of expression, we won’t sit idly by. We need to roar to show how we feel, which could lead to one or two explosive situations.
The best lesson to learn while Mars moves through Leo is that the ego can be both a beautiful and a disastrous thing. We feel proud when our egos are fed, but offended when they are hurt or ignored. This transit offers you a chance to reflect on what ego means to you, and to balance the role it plays in your life.
