ALMUTEMVenus in Leo
Venus represents what you love, what gives you pleasure and the things you value. In Leo, it expresses itself with warmth, pride and a longing to shine.
In Leo — fixed fire ruled by the Sun — Venus walks peregrine, without dignity of its own, and clothes itself in the pomp of the Sun that reigns there. Affection becomes broad, loyal and theatrical, a lover of splendour and of recognition. It inclines to a generous and faithful love, that gives itself entire but demands to be seen and honoured; the desire of union seeks nobility, declared devotion and the brilliance of the court. It gives a taste for pomp, for festivities, for kingly ornaments and for the pleasures of showing and being admired. The concord here harmonises with magnanimity, sweetens with warmth and largeness of heart. It tends to a haughty and radiant beauty, of lordly bearing. The danger is pride: the star of pleasure would always be the centre, and the love that demands applause may grow cold when the audience is wanting. But where it loves, it loves with loyalty and greatness.
