Midheaven in Leo in the BirthChart

Having one’s Midheaven in Leo can make people feel (and wish to feel) more special publicly, as if they needed to seek a special place in the sun where their own light can shine for the benefit of all (and for general admiration too). Leo is the sign most connected to the Sun and in its best form incorporates some of the positive aspects of this King star of our solar system, such as vitality, creativity and abundance.

I can shine if I want to

The House 10 deals with career and social position and whoever has this positioning in their birth charts always seems to be wanting (or attracting) people's attention in public life. And when Leo energy is at its best, it is really worth looking at, as the individual may always be trying to do something new, trying to play a leading role in society, never just an extra.

There may be a strong need to lead, to be in charge, as well as a great deal of talent and probably an artistic touch besides, which adorns all the creations of their careers. The need to be special, to do things with love or to leave a legacy in some manner can be satisfied through a vocation where these people themselves are their own guide.

Increased generosity

Having Aquarius at the bottom of the sky in one’s birth chart can entail a certain psychological need to improve the world in some way. Such positioning can cause these people to help other people to express their own special qualities and their own light, as a coach or facilitator, or they can also have an appreciation for participating in charity works as a volunteer or developing the potential of young people in parallel with their own career.

They just need to be careful, for if Aquarius’s idealism is distorted by some tense Leo qualities, the combination may give rise to megalomaniacal and vain enthusiasm that is not beneficial either to them or others. Leo needs authority and true authority is the result of experience and knowledge. There can be great lessons throughout life that revolve around the achievement of genuine authority and the understanding of humility.

The ideal is not to try to force everyone to share a personal view of how things should be. By getting rid of their Aquarian coldness at the base and activating the most affectionate and generous impulses of their Leo energy at the top, these people can achieve excellent integration that generates a dynamic of very good creativity and a natural authority, providing an image of leadership without much effort being undertaken.
