[b]Could anyone share some tips on how to deal with those who have a Leo moon, please? Their drama can frequently be energy draining. Some don't even realize (or even care) how their drama affects others. I get along with Leo sun sign people well enough, but Leo moons are a whole other story. Anytime I've asked anyone with a Leo moon to tone it down, it gets worse.
God, you are so right on. #1 don't ask em to tone it down, it's just natural to them, so it's not fair to ask them to change their reactions, etc. I've struggled with this too. Really. #2 only thing that seems to work (for now) is to go out of my way with attention at some point, really piling it on when they're in an UP mood, but then draw a boundary to be able to pay attn to other people/things. It bugs em a bit at first that it's not all on them, but they quickly get the hint, and it quiets them *just enough* to let them know that it's not all about them all the time. The ones I've known are not keen on taking the low road if they're handled well so they quickly get the hint. It clues them in on it in a roundabout manner and it doesn't injure their dignity. I'm sure I could think of a better fix but for now that's that. Oh and I def compliment their appearance if I notice a change, if it's a sincere compliment. If I don't like it, I still let them know that I noticed a change. The worst for them seems to be being ignored or to treat them as if they have no authority, and if so then the dramarama begins. If you're good with kids you'll be good with Leo Moons. They need fun, playfulness, surprises, and good boundaries, ie: recognize when playtime is over. And acknowledge what they're good at, their strengths. In front of other people. It's no good if you 2 are alone. Or it's not as good lol. I just err on the side of caution and always give them their compliments where others can obv hear it.[/B][/QUOTE]Thanks, Lonake. That's helpful. IP: Logged |

my bf of over a year is a leo moon. what i have learned along the way. number one rule is never ignore them - they want to be acknowledged and noticed immediately. i swear he gives me 15 minutes to respond to texts and then gets upset he's being 'ignored.' they thrive thrive thrive on attentiveness and compliments. they are very dramatic - when they are telling stories or in a group they definitely thrive on attention and seek audiences. it makes the men, imo, seem like flirts, but it's just the way they are - always seeking people to admire them. they just come alive with compliments on anything - appearance, strength, intelligence, etc. i basically wooed my leo man with compliments. they have a lot of pride and don't want to look stupid, especially in front of others, but also when alone with you; they want to look good and be right. very generous and romantic - they like to give (and get) gifts and enjoy romance a lot, so wine, chocolates, walks along the beach, spending all day cuddling in bed, etc. all that is not cliche with leo moon. they like to look good and have good hygiene too - appearances are important and that includes the clothes and hair, etc. overall i find my leo moon guy to be pretty great although he is definitely the needy one in the relationship and i have to work to keep him satisfied with compliments and attention. they are stubborn too - once they make up their miind about something you cannot change it or sway them easily. and i find that they like to experience the same things over and over again (like foods, movies, songs, fave places, etc) - perhaps because of the fixed nature of the signIP: Logged |

Lmao Seriouscat. Hahaahmm  I love leo moons! I know how to handle them at their worst and best. I agree they can be tiring---but oh so exciting.  My moms a moon in leo and sometimes she'll just talk about useless subjects when everyone else is exhausted in late hours of the night. She can get real immature sometimes. Or when viewing a movie in the theatre (different leo moon), whisper and poke and laugh, just to have the attention he needs. Leo 5th house sign of attention/expression needs attention from a child. I think this is really beneficial for them!  I think ignoring them when theyre seeking drama is the absolute worst action one can take. If attention makes them feeling comforted/emotionally secure than denying them of this isn't going to have their emotional needs met! Unless you're a sun in air/fire, then forget that. You probably suit their needs already.  Lioness: "If he's to loud instead of saying be quite or lower ur voice.
Say you sound so sexy when you talk with your soft voice.. It's such a turn on for me..
I betcha his voice will be lower most of the night"
Haha, this is cute. I will definately try this!  -----

I am a leo moon guy. You can ask me to tone it down. Y not? Yes it might be hurtful kinda like asking a Virgo to stop "nagging". (just an example btw and iv asked that before of Virgo partners before knowing astro so I know it can be hurtful since part of it is the essence of the sign. Feel free to use another word for nagging btw. If it's not a partner don't worry about it so much. We have lotsa people we can get attention from. If it's a partner I guess it might not work out coz we want the most from our partners. But still don't worry. I'm sure there is always someone willing to take it in a heartbroken leo moon.

MY ADVICE.TIP: Concur with them, allow the attention even if you have to become very straightforward or silly about it like any other fire sign would. Excessive compliments, bold gestures, humorous honesty, parties, the best of the best. Treat them like a queen! Now get in the zone! They to you are VIP, ace, the big shot, the big cheese, the apple of your eye, celebrity, super hero, famous person, superstar, notable, worthy, luminary, immortal!  From experience, they can go from acting like a child to acting like a queen depending on whether they're needs are being met or not. Usually they have a lot of friends/dress pretty-- they find ways to get their attention, so its not usually an issue.
I'm a Sagittarius Moon, btw.

Hi Lonake I would, but I'm shhhyy. 
Because of this reason, It was really difficult for me to write that. lol.
Maybe in the future when theres another thread I can help you out. Or if you have an email we can talk in private about such matters. I always adore having an Astro buddy. ------

okie, my take:1) Admiration
2) Attention
3) Praise I'm a Leo Sun btw. The Leo Moons I know are so warm hearted, romantic and earnest how can one bear to tell them to stop the drama when all they want is (1),(2) & (3). My mom has a Leo Stellium(6planets in Leo). I observed that she is only dramatic when she did not get the attention she needs. She married my dad, a Scorpio Sun who has Scorpio Stellium n only Pluto/Mars/Saturn in Leo. I guess Dad's Saturn in Leo is drenching cold water over her Mars/Pluto/Venus/Sun/Jupiter. I feel sad for her the more I know astrology. IP: Logged |

Understood, but a Leo Sun is not a Leo Moon. Leo moons might want admiration, attention, and praise, but it's done with drama, from what I've experienced. From the responses I've read and experiences I've had with Leo moons, this drama tends to be carried out rather immaturely. People have asked about my personal planets to see how they can try to advise. Of those who appear to praise individuals with Leo moons, I'd be curious as to what synastry they have with them that would indicate a proclivity toward such praise. (I'm not actually asking, I'm just curious.) You mentioned your mom has a 6 planet stellium in Leo. I take it her Moon isn't in Leo since the moon is not a planet. Feedback is appreciated, but the focus here is Leo moons. I do appreciate your input just the same. Thanks.

^^ You can goggled the information but what I can offer my understanding is below based on just isolated Leo sign in planets. You have to link the information provided and come to a conclusion yourself. Moon - represents a person's emotional make-up, unconscious habits, memories and moods. Leo in Moon means that their emotional blue-print is based on Leo-ish qualities - whether in good spirit or bad mood. They are emotionally happy when they are center of attraction, entertaining and they respond emotionally well to those who gives them attention/praise/admiration/loyalty. They are emotionally attracted to leo-ish qualities. For Leo Sun, stroking their ego is the way to their heart but may or may not touch them emotionally if one does not respond to their moon blue-print. For Leo Venus ladies, they expresses love in a Leo-like way - dramatic, romantic and attention seeking. When a woman in Leo Venus is in love, she displays Venusian qualities, that is her love blueprint. For a man with Leo in Venus, he will like to date leo-ish quality woman as that is what he finds attracttive. A Leo Moon Man will find anyone who touches his moon more emotionally familiar and comfortable than someone who touches his venus. Okie, you get the idea.. so you can go check out the other planets in Leo Anyway, I find Leo Moon ppl adorable cos I have Sun in Leo, my moon/venus/pluto/mars will most prob sextile their Leo moon. Maybe your emotional blueprint / conscious ego blueprint has some clash with the Leo Moon friends of yours, which is why you find them annoying. Honestly, it really has nothing to do with their moon in Leo more than how you do not find that pleasing  IP: Logged |

hello, Just read through the whole thread...and thought as a leo moon to jump in. (Saggie sun and mercury). Ignorning me is the worst thing you can do to me. I love little compliments, make me feel happy and noticed. Drama? Only explosive if being lectured to, or something is not fair (maybe libra venus/mars influence), or I feel I am not being listened to. Actually I can not always be right in what I am saying and will only admit this, if the other person is calm. My leo sun friend told me the other night "calm down" in a neutral tone cause I was tired and felt like he was winding me up just to prove a point. But his measured tone and patience did allow me to calm down and not be so caught up in the heat of the moment. I think leo moons in general are fun loving,loyal, warm hearted people and its the blending of the energies I think. I have close friends with pisces moons and am aware of their sensitivity.

Sure, well with me it's been the case that their Moons are always in my 1st and they are often trine my Sagittarius placements in the 5th. The interaction between those 2 signs in those 2 houses naturally inclines to high spirits. Sometimes it's also been the case that their Moons have been conj my progressed ASC. But I have chart elements other than those mentioned that are not 'kosher' with la Lunar Leo and that, dear friend, is the rub.IP: Logged |

As others have said, Leo moons want their needs to be acknowledged, so just say something like," I understand that you are upset about__________. I'd like for us to discuss this as adults. Do you want to talk about__________ now or wait later until you are calmer?"In my experience, this calms them down quickly. IP: Logged |
