Okay, so I’ve been diving deep into astrology lately, and I got really curious about what it means to have Leo Sun in the 12th house. I mean, Leo is all about being the center of attention, right? And the 12th house is like, the hidden realm of secrets and solitude. Seems like a total clash, so I had to figure this out for myself.
My Experiment Begins
First, I pulled up my own birth chart. Just to be sure, you know? Yep, there it was, Sun in Leo, smack-dab in the 12th house. Okay, game on.
I decided I was going to really feel this energy. So, I started by just observing myself. Like, how do I actually behave? Am I this big, showy Leo, or do I shrink back? The truth is, it’s a bit of both.
The Observation Phase
- I noticed that I do love to shine, but mostly in private. Like, I’ll put on a whole performance for my close friends or family, but put me in a crowd of strangers? Nope. I clam up.
- I noticed that I do a lot of internal creating. I started to make art alone.I realized I’m way more comfortable expressing myself when nobody’s watching.
- I also realized I spend A LOT of time daydreaming. Like, epic sagas in my head, where, of course, I’m the hero. Classic Leo, but all internal.
Diving Deeper – The Journaling
Then, I started journaling. Every day, I wrote down how I felt, what I did, and especially when I felt that Leo energy trying to burst out, and when I felt it being pulled back by the 12th house vibes. It was messy.
Some days, I felt this huge urge to be seen, to share my ideas, to just be out there. But then, I’d immediately second-guess myself. “Is this too much?” “Am I being too dramatic?” “Will people judge me?” It was a constant tug-of-war.
The Breakthrough (Sort Of)
After a few weeks of this, I started to see a pattern. The more I honored my need for solitude and inner work, the easier it was to let my Leo Sun shine in a way that felt authentic. I didn’t have to be the life of the party to be me.
I started sharing my creative projects with a small group of trusted friends. Baby steps. And guess what? They loved it! It was like, by embracing the hidden part of myself, I could actually let the light out in a more controlled, comfortable way.
Still Figuring It Out…
Honestly, I’m still figuring this whole Leo Sun in the 12th house thing out. It’s a journey, not a destination, right? But I’m definitely learning to embrace both the spotlight and the shadows. It’s about finding that balance between being seen and being true to my inner world. It’s like, I’m the star of my own private movie, and that’s perfectly okay.
