I am a Leo Rising.My moon is in aquarius so it falls into my 7th house which is ruled by Uranus.
Who else is a Leo rising?
I have noticed that even though,we seek unconventional love and are extremely generous when it comes to our partners or friends or family,we also got a little problem with getting attached-at least,I do-
When I see oceans of feelging I instinctally retreat or start running away.What about you?

I'm also a leo rising. I definitely can relate- oceans of feeling and I want to retreat, but its also what I crave. Moon in libra so I can relate to your 7th house moon.. I think as leo rising, you want to display the best self (sun) so what's your sun sign? I am a cancer and find that I fit the archetypal cancer traits. I think leo rising has a lot to do with confidence boosting. I've met quite a few timid and insecure leo rising people. Unless he's an Aries... Might be different.

Moon in the 7th means you naturally need that other person. You desire to have a relationship and get the security from it. Especially as a leo rising you probably give more than is necessary to make that other person feel good. You're a pleaser, but in an unusual way, but warm still. It's interesting you saying you want to retreat, because Aquarius moon is detached. When it comes to emotions, these people can be totally abrupt and frank which might make others feel as though you are inconsiderate of their emotions. If its in te 7th house though, I feel that wouldn't be so strong in your composition. Maybe you have a unique and unusual expression of relationships. Maybe not so traditional relationships. Also, I found with leo rising people is that relationships tend to be eclectic in terms of cross-cultural/racial mates, or an age gap of around 10+ years, or both!

Not sure if you can deduce how one would feel in a relationship unless you know other things in the chart like the moon, venus, etc.

I agree with everything that you said..That's like describing me lol
I'm also a Cancer Sun conjunct mercury,venus conjunct mars in gemini.
I do like..soft relationships that are cute,feelings flow ,no extreme outbursts of intensity(I can't deal with that even though I'm a hades mooner)Maybe that's the reason I'm so attracted to sagittarius and aquarius people.
I don't have a confidence problem usually but when I do,I cover it up at any cost.
I have sun square saturn which does mess with my inner self but then saturn trines my asc and I literally have no idea what's going on lol

That might be your Cancer sun. I'm a Cap sun, and even with a Pisces moon, I don't deal with oceans of feeling too often. (Sounds kind of fun, though ) I get emotional, but it's not a huge determinant in how I engage with people.

I have a singleton sun and Leo rising...my ASC is probably trine Jupiter, Venus, and Neptune, sextile Pluto and Mars. I don't have the exact time, but I feel these aspects must be involved because my energy feels huge, boisterous, and friendly (but maybe a bit too loud.)

My ASC makes me feel like a drama queen even when I am sitting all alone doing nothing.

I do keep people at a distance, not because I fear an emotional tsunami in getting close to them, but because I dread the heartache of possibly losing them later. I doubt it's obvious to most people that part of me is totally withdrawn and uncommunicative (8H moon) because I put on such a show up front and open up about some things in great, colorful detail. Like a circus, you know?

You're a Cancer? That's why you have oceans of feeling. I'm also an Aquarius Moon, but my Moon falls into H6!

Any ways, I sort of have issues with attachment I guess. I'm really flaky and don't put too much weight on attachment. I can detach and float away easily! It's easy, idk, to not put all this meaning and importance on commitment. If I wanna leave something, then I just leave it - simple as that.

But any ways, about instinctualy fleeing from oceans of feeling, I don't really do that. It depends I guess how I feel. Am I up to tackling someone's ocean of feeling? Do I think they're worth it? Or do you mean my own oceans of feeling? In which case I don't really get oceans of feeling...I'm a Scorpio Sun, I suppose it's more like fireworks of feelings. Fast, bright, and short-lived!

Me too! It's just a comfort thing for me. I don't fear losing people nor do I fear closeness - I'm just a breezy-hearted person.

First what is a singleton exactly and how we calculate that?:P

Second,it's not me who has an ocean of emotions,I actually do not.But even if I do I will never show it.
I don't think it's my Sun that causes all the fuss,it's probably my Moon Square Pluto that drives me crazy.
I usually only express feelings in poems that I write-have been told my poems are hair raising.

I'm a Leo Rising and I don't retreat, as long as I'm not being smothered. It's not the feelings I fear, it's the lack of autonomy. This is probably my Sag energy at work that demands autonomy and imparts a positive attitude (and "don't worry about spilled milk, the cat will come along and lap it up"). And I have enough other close ones and hobbies that perhaps I don't feel as vulnerable as some others do because I don't place my eggs in one basket so to speak.

My mom is also a Leo Rising, but I think her Scorpio (with some Pisces) make her feel especially vulnerable and she seeks to be the one in control. She may be generous in a manner of speaking but its very calculated and not done out of honest generosity. I think if she came to like someone too much that she'd hate 'em for making her vulnerable, but despite her alcoholism she seems to have a Scorpio iron will when it suits her and I doubt such vulnerability would afflict her often (though I know she does feel lonely at times, and her Gemini energy also makes her seek out others).

You can always publish your poems down in the Yellow Wax and the Ants forum.

*hint hint*

A planet can be a singleton for several reasons:

quote:
If a planet happens to be the only one in an element, quality, or house type, that planet is a Singleton and it can funnel all of the “energy” of the horoscope. This planet is often the most important one in the horoscope. In other words, if you just interpret the position of this one planet by sign, house, and aspect, you will get to the “heart of the horoscope”. The effect is the same as if that planet were the only one on one side of the chart.

My sun is a singleton because it's the only planet or luminary in an earth sign. I mentioned it because I've read that singleton suns may behave like Leos (since the sun rules Leo.) After searching a good ten minutes, I cannot find the link where I read that, however. So, best to ignore it, I might be mistaken.

Also, our sun signs probably affect how we deal with loss. The Caps I know tend to work toward permanency in much of what we do (that's Saturn's long reach) and this applies to relationships. To borrow your analogy, I have many baskets (friends) but don't want to lose any. Even the friends I hit a dead end with and don't want to talk to anymore...I miss them, in certain moods or sometimes just in dreams.

Astro.com pegs me as Sag dominant, I have Sag Venus-Neptune and also love my autonomy to pieces. Maybe that's a factor, too.
