Okay, so, let’s talk about this whole Sagittarius Sun, Leo Rising thing I’ve been digging into. It all started when I was trying to figure out why I’m such a walking contradiction sometimes.
First, I got this astrology app. Put in my birth details and bam! There it was: Sagittarius Sun, Leo Rising. Sounds kinda cool, right? Like some sort of fire sign superhero.
Then I started reading. Lots of reading. About how Sagittarius is all about adventure and freedom, and how Leo is all about being the center of attention. It felt like reading about two different people who were both somehow… me.
I began to observe myself. Like, really observe. I noticed that I do love to explore. I’m always the one planning trips, trying new things, kinda like that Sagittarius vibe. I’ll try some new food I’ve never heard of, or spontaneously drive to a nearby city just to see what’s up. I always thought this was normal, but I guess not everyone is like that.
- One time, I decided I needed to learn how to surf. Just like that. Booked a lesson, drove to the coast, and spent the whole day getting tossed around by waves. It was awesome!
- Another time, I signed up for a pottery class on a whim. Ended up with a bunch of wonky-looking bowls, but hey, I had fun.
But then there’s this other side of me. The side that loves a good compliment, that thrives on being in the spotlight, that maybe – just maybe – enjoys drama a little too much. That’s where the Leo Rising comes in, I guess.
My friends often tell me I have this “big personality”. That I light up a room. To be honest, I never really saw it that way until I started this whole astrology deep dive. But yeah, I guess I do like to be seen. I like to make people laugh. I like to feel like I’m making a difference. I always thought that was just, you know, being a decent human.
Putting it all together
So, how does this all play out in real life? Well, it’s… interesting. I’m that friend who’s always up for an adventure, but I also want to make sure everyone’s having a good time and that I look good doing it. I’m the one who will give you the honest truth, but I’ll also be the first to cheer you on when you’re chasing your dreams.
It’s a constant balancing act. Sometimes I feel like I’m being pulled in two different directions. But I’m learning to embrace both sides of myself. I’m learning that it’s okay to be both the wanderer and the performer. It’s what makes me, me. And honestly, I wouldn’t have it any other way. It keeps things interesting, that’s for sure. I may do some stupid things from time to time because of my impulsiveness and recklessness, but at least I can live with myself, right? So yeah, this is my journey to figure out my own personality.
