This proud and indomitable Moon indicates a soul who expects to be looked up to and admired. There is a strong need to be special. In the past, this soul has been an important personage. If sufficient homage is not paid, this Moon is the drama queen of the zodiac.

THE DIVINE CHILD
Leo is the divine child incarnated onto the earth to bring joy and sacredness. This sign carries the archetype of the ruler and of the child. The two need to balance each other out. The innocence and joy of the child prevent the soul with the Moon in Leo from becoming too autocratic to step off the throne and play.

PRIDE AND PREJUDICE
The soul with Leo Moon has so often committed the sin of pride. Hubris, taking on or testing the gods, arises out of overweening pride. This comes out of inflated self-importance. This overbearing soul may have believed it had a god-given right to rule. Neglected and ignored, it stands on wounded dignity and becomes stand-offish and dictatorial. A vital lesson is that of humility. Leo has strong opinions and the soul with this Moon has deeply ingrained beliefs that may have created prejudice and bigotry in the past.

EMOTIONAL NEEDS
This fiery sign has strong instinctual needs, the most powerful of which is to be special. Leo craves love – this is the sign of the heart. For Leo, sex is an expression of a very particular need: that of being intimate with another soul. The intimacy is not equal – Leo wants to be looked up to, adored, and made to feel special. With adoration, Leo responds with great joy and the playful aspect of the sign emerges – but woe betide a partner who injures the Leo pride. There is a childlike part of Leo that responds to attention and flattery, and the Leo Moon soul has a need for creativity and self-expression. In the past, the soul with this Moon has played many emotional games. It can be manipulative, will certainly have flirted and played with another’s heart, and has been involved in power plays of all kinds. This soul has been exploring power in all its manifestations. But Leo is also related to the heart and this soul has been working on opening the heart. The positive side of the Leo Moon is warmhearted generosity of spirit and a benevolent authority that aids rather than imposes.

LUNAR FOOD
Admiration is essential sustenance. To be looked up to and adored is vital If this homage is not received, the soul sulks and becomes a drama queen. But power also feeds this soul. The test is to make it empowerment for all rather than power over everyone else.

MOTHERING EXPECTATIONS
What this soul seeks is a warm, affectionate mother who can be looked up to as a positive role model – and who can act as playmate and entertainer. What the soul expects, and dreads, is the “queen bee,” around whom everything has to revolve and who demands constant attention from her child.

ANCESTRAL INHERITANCE
The ancestral inheritance from Leo is power and pride. The family is all-powerful and proud of its place in the world. Even when poor, the family is proud – and may be too proud to ask for, or accept, the help it needs. Part of the lesson for this soul may be to accept what is offered. Leo is also a generous sign, and where there is sufficient, the soul learns to give. Warmheartedness features strongly in the ancestral line, even in poverty, and here the soul can learn that giving is not always a question of money. Opening the heart allows generosity of spirit to flow.
