North Node in Leo
The North Node in Leo grows by stepping into the light. Blending into the group comes easily, with the South Node in Aquarius; the growth is in your own creative voice, and being loved for it.
At a party you are the one making sure the quiet guest has someone to talk to. Ask you to stand up and give a toast, and you suddenly remember something in the car.
You have the North Node in Leo and the South Node in Aquarius. Aquarius gave you a gift for the group: fairness, friendship, a cause bigger than yourself, a cool head when feelings run high. Leo asks for the one thing the group cannot give you, the chance to be singular.
Safety in numbers
You are generous with everyone and private about yourself. Your ideas go into team projects with nobody’s name on them, and you are faintly embarrassed by people who want credit. Underneath, a performer has been waiting a long time.
Your name on it
Growth comes through making something and showing it. A song, a painting, a business with your face on the website, a speech at a wedding that makes the room cry. It comes through play, through children if you have them, through falling in love without taking notes on yourself.
Put one thing you made where people can see it, and let them praise it without changing the subject.
Warmth in front
The friends stay, and the causes stay. You give them more once you stop hiding behind them, because a heart shown in public is what a crowd remembers. The Sun rules Leo, and where it stands in your chart is what you are proudest of.
