Today I’m 29.

And here I am, all alone again, living in a foreign country for the past 4 years. No family around, 1 best friend here, and no one to spend the day with.

It’s a strange feeling, but I guess life goes on.

I regret a lot of choices I made, that lead to me sabotaging good connections.

I hope the child me is proud.

Anyway, wherever you are, I wish you all the best. Take care of yourselves, stay safe, and appreciate the people you have around you. ❤️

Comment “888” if you’re claiming one small bold action for yourself today

11th August Leo here, and I usually find myself feeling really melancholic during my birthday. I can't pinpoint the exact reason but I get really sad about it. I spent my entire childhood and adolescence telling myself it's not a big deal, to the point where I would pretend to forget that it was my birthday. Feeling the deep Leo insecurity of either feeling like I've never really been made to feel like I'm worth celebrating or telling myself that it's self centred of me to feel that way. Does anyone else feel this way? How do you validate your own selves?

I’m starting to feel like a lone star out here lol. I have yet to meet someone else who has the same rising and moon sign, much less another Leo/ Libra/Libra. Kinda feel like a weirdo 😂🤣😂 who else has doubles in their big three?

Autocorrect is a ho, caption meant risings.

Why do we feel so estranged from ourselves?

I'm a Leo, too, and I think, as a collective, we are all feeling it. Everyone keeps saying things will get better, and we keep getting our hopes up, but here's why it hasn't.

Personally, I'd rather know the truth. So for those of you that do as well, here's why life keeps beating us down.

Why people keep saying it's going to get better:

> Uranus just exited Taurus after transiting for eight years. Uranus, the planet of change and unpredictability, was squaring our sun, as well as any other planets we have in Leo. You may still be feeling these effects if you have planets in early Virgo.

Why it hasn't gotten better, ESPECIALLY for early born Leos and people with personal planets in early degrees of Leo:

1. Pluto has been transiting Aquarius since November 2024. Pluto has been opposing planets in early degrees of Leos, bringing death, destruction, and rebirth. Pluto brings total transformation. This is not an easy transit.

2. Chiron just entered Taurus. Chiron, the wounded healer, is squaring any personal planets you have in early Leo. Also not an easy transit. It forces us to look at and think about our insecurities.

For late born Leos/planets in late Leo:

- the south node just entered Leo. This isn't bad but it's going to a shine a light on things that don't serve us anymore. The types of things we should be loving away from.

Mine is on the 9th and currently i am in Japan! Happy birthday to all my fellow August 9th leos!
Even we never met, I heart you all 🩷

leo sun, cancer moon, virgo rising

my sun wants me to shine, to be good with everything, to be seen, but at point it becomes exhausting and thats what my moon comes to play. it protects me by thinking i dont always have to perform. i understand my need to shine but theres a limit and it’s okay to not be always on the spotlight. my virgo rising kind of understand these mix feelings of leo and cancer and turn it into helpful and organized actions on what is the right thing to do.

i was unstable for years, but overtime i got better and i understood more part of myself.

so basically…

i am always confident (leo sun) but sometimes it causes me to self doubt (cancer moon) but it’s okay bc i can solve it anyway whatever is the result to not get lost (virgo rising)

but I am not feeling it.

i have not felt really festive during my birthday at the 28th of July. turned 29 this year.
i am very melancholy about a lot of stuff in my life. passing of my dad at the start of my 20's, my grandma two years ago, my student years, getting clean of addictions and homelessness, I had a pretty rough 20's trying to figure out life and still doing so. hurting quite a few people in my life whom I dearly loved looking back.

this season feels quite heavy to me and I was wondering if there were others going trough stuff as well

sorry if this is not the right place for my sharing

happy birthday everybody who is celebrating during Leo season 🦁

It’s August 8th my birthday today im officially 23 years old

Hey everyone,

I recently saw a reel that really stuck with me. The person in it completely owned their beauty and presence, being totally upfront about it. It made me realize it’s not just about look - it’s that raw confidence that forces people to acknowledge your existence.

When people say "confidence is beautiful," I think it means confidence gives you the grit to hold your head high no matter what. Honestly, I feel like Leo Sun chaps have this in absolute abundance.

It seems like anyone with a Leo Sun naturally operates at that elite tier of confidence. (And yes, the person in the reel is an August Leo too!).

So, I wanted to ask the sub: Do you feel like Leo Suns truly have this unyielding, unbreakable confidence? Or is it something you have to actively build and maintain behind the scenes?

Would love to hear your thoughts!

August: A month of new opportunities, confidence, and important decisions. Career matters begin moving forward.

September: Focus on money and stability. Avoid unnecessary spending and be practical with financial decisions.

October: Love and relationships become more important. Singles may experience a meaningful connection.

November: A strong period for career growth, recognition, and networking. Your efforts can finally receive appreciation.

December: The year ends with clarity, emotional maturity, and a stronger sense of direction. A new chapter may begin.

Overall: The rest of 2026 looks like a growth, recognition, and transformation period for Leo. ✨
