if you're a Leo mooner, or you know a person who has a Leo moon, have you found them to be very insecure, or lacking at social skills/not having confidence? I know 3 Leo moons, and they have all deemed themselves as not being a "people person" and tend to be quite shy in social situations or at work. but personally, they can be very lively. just not in front of other people. it seems like the moon holds Leo back, and doesn't let it to express itself fully.IP: Logged |

I have found them to over compensate emotionally or to use emotions to gain attention.IP: Logged |

no, most leo mooners i know have been the opposite actually.i really don't think the sign of your planet is set in stone. i really think your chart overrall influences how these traits of signs in planets come out. e.g. i know atleast 2 or 3 leo risers including my self, who arn't that sociable or lively. they are however if you warm up to them as a friend. i mean, i have venus in libra, now i can be really sociable, but i can also be the COMPLETE opposite. this is down to the aspects and the chart overrall. so i don't think you can generalize a planet by sign, only the aspects to it. some of the basic traits you can of course, but in terms of how these planets express there traits, i don't think it can be generalized. p.s., hows things with mr. leo sun?

thanks for the replies, guys.letram, things are GREAT with Mr Leo Sun, lol. i've never met anyone like him. he totally understands me, and i totally understand him. and we're soo alike it's insane. we have the sames likes and dislikes, we have the same type of personality. we get along so fantastic, there's loads of conjunctions and trines in our synastry. and there's no pluto-venus action going on, thank God! all my past relationships have had one, and it's been a strain on the heart. but, this guy is just so genuine, i still can't believe how compatible we are, and how i've managed to find someone like him. plus he's super hot, lol. he has long hair that is truly like a lion's mane, and his physique is perfect. love his hairyness lol. we've been on two dates, but it's never been awkward, it's like two friends that have known each other for years, hanging out + some extra flirtation going on.  haha, now i'm babbling, but i can't help myself  IP: Logged |

i have a leo moon, and i am usually quiet in public until i get to know someone. if i am in the mood, i will strike up a conversation with a stranger, but not often. i am quite shy. maybe my virgo asc. now, if i am with friends or family, i like to sing, dance, and act silly. i feel free with them. i cant say i am overly dramatic, though. i can be "dramatic" sometimes, but my feelings are sincere, and not to get attention.when i was younger, at times i may have over-exagerated, looking back, but those were my real feelings. if you hurt my feelings, you are hurting my pride. for instance, in my twenties, a boyfriend cheated on me, and i took all his clothes and threw them on the side of the road. not anything major there, but the thing about it was, i couldnt wait to get rid of him. but he cheated, so he hurt my pride. it definitely wasnt to get him back or get attention. but were my feelings real? absolutely.
now that im older, i try to tell myself, when needed, that everything will be okay, i dont need to make something, though unintentional, more than what it is. i have learned to have more faith.as a child, though, i used to throw some serious temper tantrums that were fake. my cancer sun mom went for it. i just wanted to scream and scream and get her attention and keep it. last year i had a terribly dreadful transit. chiron opposition my leo moon. i didnt think chiron held that much water. i think that was the worst transit ever. especially the circumstancs surrounding it. i really needed someone and all i kept hearing was "its not you, its me, but we can be friends" so depressing for a leo moon. i had to get tough after a while. so, yes, rejection can wound a lion(ess) heart. it can make us feel insecure.

yes, nine, generally speaking, we will do that until someone gives us the acceptance and love we need. alot of times we can be wounded but not show it. once we get what we need, we will be loyal and give the same in return til the end. IP: Logged |

no way! no one except maybe close friends, will know how we really feel. well, i must say my venus is in pisces, so maybe someone could tell. i can get a bit emotional, but never on purpose. i definitely try to keep it private. different reactions for different leos, i guess. IP: Logged |

Sounds like the Leo Mooners in my life, one Virgo Sun/Cancer Rising the other Gemini Sun/Taurus Rising. I wouldn't describe either of them as particularly insecure. Just as described so well here, they are guarded in public. But as these two are both in my family I get to see their full Leonine sunshine and humour. IP: Logged |

I agree with Lara.My sisters Leo Moon conjuncts her ASC (She's a Taurus Sun). She always seems to want to make things a competition for attention which can be quite annoying considering our 10 year age difference. I'm a Leo Sun (11th house, Aquarius Moon..chart FLOODED with Virgo.) and I'm not so out right competitive. She does have her good qualities. This is just her at her worst. IP: Logged |

I knew a Pisces Sun/Leo Moon female who was not exactly insecure, but every single conversation would get back on to her and her needs as the main topic. Always high drama and complained about everyone and needy. I took a step back and don't think she was really aware of just how much complaining she always did. Tiresome to say the least.I gave up this acquaintance/friendship for my own sanity. All someone needs to do is actually take the time to listen to what I have to say in the friendship and we have something to start with to be friends. All I ask. If it's always about them, I lose interest. IP: Logged |

not to get off topic, but i work with a libra sun.cancer rising and gem moon. she is the same way i have been working with her for over a year and it is so annoying that i actually get nauseous. im not being a dramatic leo either. she talks about herself nonstop. literally non stop. i really like her, its just that she knows absolutely nothing about me. i have to try to block her out. any time i try to bring up one small thing, she tells me about her and how it pertains to her.

As a Leo Moon, I can say that you will know when we're "insecure" when we are obnoxiously showing off and being the extreme center of attention.I think the "not being a people person" thing comes from that. I am a people person, but I wasn't when I was younger. When most people are insecure they keep to themselves, but I would just compulsively feel the need to be in everyone's face and be so "look at me" that it didn't help anything at all. It was great when people responded well, it was terrible when they didn't Thus, when they didn't, my ego defended itself by saying "people are idiots anyway, and because of this I'm not a people person"..
I think its different with ones chart though, and with age. My Moon is in a tight T-square with Sun, Pluto, and Mars...and quincunx to my Jupiter (chart ruler) so naturally, my responses were far more dramatic than others would be.

I know two people who have Leo moons and they both tend to be secretly insecure and they both cover up there insecurity/certain emotions with anger or over reacting.
One has a Leo Sun-Leo Moon conjunct and is part of a Leo stellium 12th house with Virgo rising; the other has Leo rising 12th house Leo Moon Aries Sun. In Sidereal astrology (lahiri or Fagan)I have a Leo Moon 3rd house. I tend to be insecure and socially awkward.

This is the way I think of it, having a particular sign on a planet demonstrates a certain type of energy, and whether that planet has negative or positive aspects that determines HOW it is played out. So maybe negative aspects to the moon makes one introverted, whereas positive aspects causes one to be extroverted? I don't know, just a guess!IP: Logged |

My impression of Leo moon is very warm, affectionate and generous .It seems like it has a childlike simplicity and honesty about it.
I have just known one ,though, so it is not a statistical sample  ------------------
It is either a lesson or a blessing ,Bruh. IP: Logged |

I know two leo moons:Friend: Pompous, self-righteous, but very generous, friendly, warm and sociable. Taurus sun and scorpio rising. Dear mom: She used to be shy when she was younger but not anymore. She's kind-hearted, gentle, warm, friendly, and generous. Needless to say, she's very people-oriented. Cancer sun and libra rising. Both friend and mom give love to get love. And they do it with gustto!  Both love compliments. In fact, all leo-influenced people love compliments. So, compliment them if you want them to open up. IP: Logged |

I have the Leo Moon (of course, everything is in leo) I have no bad aspects to my moon.. Unless you want to consider moon conjunct Sun and Mercury.. Im introverted.. It's hard for me to be around alot of people, especially if I dont know them well... But at the same time Im not shy.. If I want to do something I will.. I just prefer smaller crowds of people I know... I dont make new friends easily.. Its very hard for me to open up to people.. I dont like small talk.. I find it annoying.. Yeah I guess you can say Im insecure in a way, but at the same time, I have the pride, and if some one doesnt like me than its their loss..
I'm VERY FIXED... It's nearly impossible to get me to change my mind.. I think leo's in general are very insecure, which is part of the reason why we need so much attention, we need to be felt wanted, and needed... Hurting the leo pride will surely send a leo forever packing... Its very hard on the self esteem.... IP: Logged |
