Okay, here’s my blog post about “Sun in Leo, Pisces Rising”:
So, I’ve been diving deep into astrology lately, trying to figure out my own chart and what it all means. And let me tell you, it’s been a wild ride! Today, I wanted to focus on what I’ve learned about having a Leo Sun and a Pisces Rising.
The Initial Spark
I started, like most people I guess, by just Googling “Leo Sun Pisces Rising.” I found some basic info, but it felt kinda… generic. You know, the usual stuff about Leos being confident and dramatic, and Pisces being dreamy and sensitive. It didn’t really click. It described general traits, but not how they interacted within me.
Digging Deeper
I knew I needed to go beyond the surface. I started looking for forums, maybe some Reddit threads, where people with the same combination were talking about their experiences. Bingo! That’s where the real insights started to appear.
I found some people talked about it, and there is an internal struggle. Others call it a fun combination. I feel more related to the first option.
Making it Personal: My Experiment
I decided to take a more active approach. Instead of just reading, I started tracking my own moods and behaviors. I grabbed a notebook and, for a couple of weeks, I jotted down:
- How I felt throughout the day (energetic, withdrawn, creative, etc.)
- How I reacted to situations (did I take charge, or go with the flow?)
- What kind of activities I was drawn to (social gatherings, solitary projects, artistic expression?)
The Results
Okay, this is where it gets interesting. After a few weeks, some patterns started to emerge. I noticed that I definitely have those Leo moments of wanting to be the center of attention, to shine, to lead. But, almost immediately, my Pisces Rising would kick in, making me feel self-conscious, or like I was being “too much.”
For example, I volunteered to lead a project at work (very Leo!), but then I spent the whole time second-guessing myself and worrying about what everyone else thought (total Pisces!). It was that push and pull I’ve read about. I realized that my Leo Sun wants to express, to create, to be seen, but my Pisces Rising wants to merge, to connect, to feel things deeply.
I started to be more kind to myself, allowing that sensitive Pisces part to just be, without judgment. I can be bold and sensitive. It’s not an either/or situation. It’s a dance.
This whole process has been super enlightening. I’m still learning, still observing, still figuring out how these two seemingly opposite energies play out in my life. It will take time, that’s for sure!
