LEO is fixed so it has staying power, when it goes after something it does not give up until it reaches its goal. Aries is good at initiating things but does not always have the staying power but leo can also indulge and just want to have fun and play but even leos like this often turn their creativity into success and make something useful with this side of them.

My answer is LEO, they often climb the latter and make it far bc they persist and have confidence.

I think most fixed signs are lazy sobs, Aqua invents stuff so that it does not need to work hard, Taurus works hard so that it can laze around, Leo just sits...

I'd say Aries only because you mentioned "go getter".

I'm a Leo. My father was an Aries.

My ex-wife was also an Aries.

A go getter to me, means initiating action.

They may not stay the course.

I'd say an Aries initiates actions more than a Leo.

Scorpio HAS to quit work because everyone is trying to destroy them there?

Your take is so therapeutic, I felt guilty for being a Virgo and so lazy but with my Leo influence, it all becomes clear, I am just a big cat 😊

I am lazy at home but hard working at work. MC in LIBRA, IC in ARIES...

Venus conjunct Mars in Leo in the 8th.

2H rulers: Uranus and Saturn

Saturn conjunct Pluto in the 10th house

Jupiter conjunct Uranus in the 12H (house someone gives themselves away selflessly)

I guess my Lazy Side comes from LEO and my hard working side comes from Saturn in scorpio conjunct Pluto in Libra and Jupiter conjunct Uranus in Saggy.

I have always worked hard (frustrating my laziness in the process, what a tragedy lol) and I never really had anything.
Every hardship I've encountered though? Fell right on my lap without me asking anything ^^

From my experience I feel aries works hard bc they need to survive and value independence. Leo works hard bc they feel passionate about what they are working for, if the passion inst there they will be lazy.

Both go getters, difference imo Aries will pursue unexpectable things meaning go getter nature is pioneering.

I think the Aries energy is more of a go getter vs leo. I'm being bias with an aries moon but nonetheless in my experiences aries anything (sun, moon, Mercury, etc) have a certain explosiveness. They're more proactive and reactive as well. But I do see their flames being short lived. Aries are more of a sprint. Ask questions later and just do.

I find Leo to be more of an endurance run. They're go getters too if ignited properly and more of a longer burn. They're more prideful so they hold back more imo. They have a deep passion which makes them be go getters.

But how much energy is exerted with a no holds bar approach more often and initially, I say Aries.

Also I agree Leo is more of a cat that likes to attract the energy rather than exert if it's not needed.

If its a question of Aries Vs. Leo without other placements to consider then i'd say Aries energy because the Aries will charge right it into it.

...But when it comes to Aries Sun, Leo moon and Leo Sun, Aries moon I think it's a draw.

I know a Leo sun, Aries moon and an Aries sun, Leo moon female.

The Aries Sun, Leo moon went from undergrad->phd in exactly 6yrs, non-stop.

The Leo Sun, Aries moon girl is just finishing her masters. But credit must be given to the fact that her dad is an a$$hole and gave her no financial support even though he could have, its made her stronger thought and determined to succeed.

As a Scorpio moon 6th house, that is pretty accurate! I can be very loyal to a place I work.
I worked at a place from 2010-2016. This place showed me that it was possible to work with people who are normal, nice, sometimes friendship and at least neutral! It does not need to be a sorority, I just need mutual respect, get paid so I can do whatever I want outside of work. It really wasn't the people that pushed me out. It was the lack of hours. I after I earned my associates. I could not work 15 hours a week. Though my last year I worked with an awful teacher I just said if I don't find a new job over the summer I just ask that I am put in a different room.

2016-18: Was the most toxic hostile work environment I have ever experienced. Within the first month I was already looking on indeed.com. I put up with it for the holiday breaks. And I told myself to put up with it cause I will move next year. (bf ended not being ready) So the second year was the last straw. I decided I had to get out of there Nov 2017. And it took me 10 months to get a new job. I have never felt more unwelcomed by people in my entire life! There were good people there, but I was isolated from them pretty much, and was stuck working with all the jerks. My last year was very "I have to get out here!" People supported me, but people were like you can't just quit. You have to get another job.

2018-? I love my co-workers. My first assistant was friendly but also overbearing. It was complicated, we has a friendliness but she also drove me crazy a lot. The boss has pushed me to the point where she is on my list for being a garbage human being. I reached my breaking point. In January/February. I was on the verge of rage quitting. One of my co-workers talked me out of it. Thanks to her, I have stayed there. She basically stood up for me.

But I am so tired this. I am not sad about social distancing because in the last 5 years there is always one garbage person who ruins the whole work environment for me. I am enjoying my space from working with garbage people. I have been pushed to the point where welfare queen sounds appealing. I really feel like after what I have been though, I am not missing out and asking the universe to be a stay at home mom.
My experiences have me feeling like. If I am frugal with my spending. I do not need a 40 hour work week. Valuing my time is greater than impressing people for being such a hard worker. 2018 had me decide I need to at least work 20 hours. I was at 30 hours with my teaching job.
Working w/ garbage people though motivates me to do more with my life. Like if everyone was good enough at my 2016 job...I would not be working towards a bachelors right now.
It seems like I will be having powerful work related astrology transits until retirement age. Maybe in my next life I can be a socialite. haha! Or a cat.
My boss drove me up a frickin wall that I decided to get my bachelors done this summer instead of the fall.

Aries. You can sense their impatient firing energy. They always do something. (I know only one lazy Taurus/Aries). All other Aries cannot sit still long enough. However, It’s not always reasonable. I think they often need somebody to point the good direction for their energy.

Great quote. 😊 I hate work place conflicts. I’m trying hard to put my nice Libra on, but for some reasons, somebody always has problems with me. (Pluto in 1st square MC). And with all my people oriented placements, It pretty hurts.

We had an internship in one class. There were couple people I could feel strong Pluto vibes from them. I thought they gonna have problems (+ myself, of course). And indeed, we all had some problems with people trying to put us down and bad mouthing. It probably destroyed my liking of this occupation.

I feel your pain. Some think I’m lazy for not wanting to work full-time on a regular job. But my 6th house in Aries. And I was trying hard, but never saw my efforts are appreciated or reimbursed.
And I decided I should be one in power (I guess it’s my 1st Pluto idea 😊 ) or income should come from different sources.

Librapurr: Yes I cannot stand conflict in my work environment either. If I do not vibe well with someone and I have to work closely with them, I need to get out of there. Or if someone has a supervisor role to me and they abuse their power, that can be difficult. I have to go to a different department or get out of there.
I want the work dynamic to work so bad it takes so much to finally put the person on my **** list.

I have found Marie Dubuque's youtube videos to be super helpful to me. She does a lot of advice videos on social relationships.

Yes there were many times this school year where I did not feel appreciated and respected at all. I am baffled at people who want to put down people who are doing jobs no one else wants to do. I am the only teacher who has the heart to teach a 2 1/2 year old classes. And one of the only teachers who is willing to do aftercare. Because of how I was treated this year, I decided to say no if asked to do anymore after care days.

Yeah that is the worst feeling when it's like I put my self through college to be treated this way???
I expect it at entry level jobs and did not act overly shocked if someone did not favor me a lot.(My first job out of HS was a minimum wage cleaning job in a cut throat city with high crime rate) But in schools in wealthy areas? It makes me so angry.

Wishing you well on your work relationship journey.
The planets have been making me work very hard in this department. (Neptune transit 10 house, Jupiter in my 6th a few yrs ago, and all the Capricorn planets squaring my sun back and forth this year)

My Libra Sun sister had a narcissist boss for 3 years. She was pretty much looking for a new job the entire time. My sister was fine working part time at her new job once it was over. Now that I think about it my sister has butted heads with supervisors a lot. She experienced Pluto square Sun transit early, Neptune squared her Saturn, and Neptune transit 10th house. Her job make her pretty miserable during this time.

Pluto in the first house sounds fun but I'm sure it takes time to master the energy.

Pluto is in my 6th house cojunct moon and Lilith. ayeyieyie.

There have been 4 leo presidents and two Aries presidents.

Aquarius and Scorpio were the two most popular among the 44 US presidents.

Virgo and Aries were the rarest signs.

And.....

With notable billionaires including Ralph Lauren, Stefan Persson, Liliane Bettencourt, Alice Walton, Libra is the star sign of 27 famous-wealthy faces. Following closely behind is Pisces, with 22 billionaires, including Bernard Arnault, Rupert Murdoch, and Michael Dell.

Cancer, Taurus, Leo are the signs of 20 billionaires, ranking them joint third. Famous faces include Richard Branson (Cancer), Elon Musk (Cancer), Mark Zuckerberg (Taurus), David Koch (Taurus), Larry Ellison (Leo), and Sergey Brin (Leo).

Gemini and Aries are the signs of 15 billionaires each, including Jim Walton (Gemini), Steve Ballmer (Aries), and Mukesh Ambani (Aries).

My Leo Sun mom is pretty driven! My mom can be viewed as the most successful out of her siblings. She like her oldest brother would win spelling bees in schools. She would get solos in music class. Straight A student. She bought a car when she was 16. Her parents were surprised because I guess 16 year old's can't really own a car but somehow she did it.
My mom had no problem being on her own as soon as she was old enough. She did not do the whole university life thing. Instead she just worked where could and rented around. Met my dad working when she was 19. She gave him an ultimatum in her 20's which moved my dad to propose to her.
By 27 my mom was on top of the world new, house, new baby new car.
My dad was the bread winner in the 80's and 90's. My mom decided to go to college for OT so she became the bread winner in the early 2000's and has been ever since.

I thought I would mention my mom has Capricorn moon as the driving force. Leo gives her the sunny friendly personality. And her virgo mars and venus make her enjoy helping others. My mom does not like having fancy expensive things she prefers helping people with her money and giving it to churches and charities.

Loved hearing about your mom, the car thing made me laugh and loved it.

I would probably love her in person with sun in leo and venus in Virgo.

Btw my director is a Leo with moon in Capricorn.

Haha yeah, my mom was also kind of a rebellious trouble maker in the family too. When she was 13 her parents did not know what to do with her, and she had to live with her well off Grandma on a farm. Her grandma bought her a car when she was 14 and would let her drive it around unsupervised for little errands! It seemed to be good for my mom, and I think she had an extra special bond with her grandma because of it.

I love the combination of Leo Sun cappy moon and mars and venus virgo.

I had a childhood friend with this and visited her a few years ago!
And sort of dated a cutie with this placement in HS

My fiance has the Leo Sun Virgo mars venus placement (gemini moon though)

and my precious nephew has mars and venus virgo (libra sun though)

Oh and then there is me...an Aries Sun.(plus Leo IC and S. Node) I've come a long way but still feel like I am getting my act together.

I'm 30, a teacher, engaged.
My game plan right now is to
1. Finish school (in August!)
2. House/rent hunt. (Needs an upgrade on living situation)
3. Plan wedding

I feel I can't focus on 1 or 3 until 1 is completed. So I can feel like I have tunnel vision in college. While its important to keep my focus I still must live a little. I keep a to-do list for the little things that usually get back burned. For example I am finally getting new tire rims on my car. (This has been an issue for about a year and it is finally getting taken care of.)

I don't seem to accomplish anything early or the average age when most people do. But in the scheme of things does it really matter?
I am totally frustrated with still living in an apartment for almost 4 years now. But at the same time I do not need house repairs and yard work on my plate with school plus fiance being gone a lot. But I am fed with not having in unit washing the most. Also living in an apartment is super annoying with recycling and garbage. I am ready to have a garage or back porch to keep it in to not clutter or stink up the place.

I once applied for four jobs in the same day and got offered all of them.
I feel like jobs, school, and home stuff, and spending choices is the most go getter area of my life.
I feel like with social/romantic relationships, they need more refinement. You have to put your self out there, but need to respect the other person's free will and boundaries.

I also will do law of attraction if I feel powerless and want change. So I guess that is like indirect go getting. Or other occult things.
