Okay, so I’ve been diving deep into astrology lately, and I wanted to understand myself better. I’m a Leo sun, Sagittarius moon, so I started there, with “leo sun moon sagittarius”. I figured, why not document my little journey of self-discovery?
First, I just Googled the phrase. Just to see what’s out there, you know? A bunch of stuff popped up – some general descriptions, some forum posts, even a few YouTube videos. I skimmed through a few articles. It’s all pretty basic, like “Leos are confident, Sags are adventurous,” that kind of thing. I wanted to go deeper.
So, I decided to break it down. First, the Leo sun. I started making a list of all the Leo traits I could think of, both the good and the, uh, less good.
- Confident (sometimes overly so!)
- Creative
- Warm-hearted
- Loyal
- A bit dramatic (okay, maybe a lot dramatic)
- Love being the center of attention
Then, I did the same thing for Sagittarius moon:
- Adventurous
- Independent
- Honest (sometimes brutally so!)
- Optimistic
- Restless
- Philosophical
Then, The key move I think it is that I looked at how these two energies combine.
Mixing the Fire
It started to get interesting when I thought about how these signs interact. They’re both fire signs, which I already knew, but I started to see how that plays out in me. The Leo confidence gets amplified by the Sagittarian optimism. The Leo creativity gets a boost from the Sagittarian thirst for new experiences. My fire became brighter after this step!
But it’s not all sunshine and rainbows. The Leo need for attention can clash with the Sagittarian need for independence. The Leo stubbornness can be intensified by the Sagittarian bluntness. Realizing it, I started to see these patterns in my own life – times I’ve been overly dramatic, times I’ve pushed people away because I needed my space, times I’ve said things I probably shouldn’t have.
So, what did I do with all this? Well, I started journaling. I’ve been writing down situations where I feel like my Leo sun or Sagittarius moon is really taking the wheel. I’m trying to be more mindful of my reactions, to understand why I’m feeling a certain way. It’s a little experiment, kind of like, being my own personal astrologer.
It’s still early days, but I feel like I’m starting to get a better handle on myself. It’s not about changing who I am, but about understanding my strengths and weaknesses, and learning to work with my astrological makeup, not against it. It will be a long way to go, but I am so excited for it!
