Happy Leo Season — A Time to Remember Who You Are

Guess who’s a Leo? 😌 (Hi, it’s me.) But this post isn’t just about Leos. It’s about something deeper we can all tap into right now: the energy of truth, self-expression, and fierce-hearted love. And yes, Leo season happens to bring all of that to the surface in the most radiant way.

Leo energy gets a lot of attention, and rightfully so. Ruled by the sun, Leo is about vitality, creativity, and bold authenticity. But what many people miss is the tenderness underneath all that fire. Leos aren’t just confident and loud — we feel deeply. Our big energy comes from even bigger hearts.

We tend to see the people we love as extensions of our own soul. We root for them, protect them, nurture them — not out of duty, but out of instinct. We’re often the first to say, “I’ve got you,” and truly mean it. That kind of loyalty doesn’t come from ego. It comes from love.

We’re the cheerleaders, the late-night listeners, the ones who believe in you even when you don’t believe in yourself. But here’s the other side of Leo: we’re sensitive too. We feel hurt when trust is broken. And while we may not always say it out loud, if something crosses our inner line, we’ll quietly and completely step away.

Leo energy doesn’t like drama for the sake of drama. It likes truth. And that includes the truth of knowing when something or someone no longer aligns with the heart. That’s not cruelty. That’s self-respect.

So What Does Leo Season Mean for Everyone?

Leo season, which runs from late July to mid-August, invites all of us to reflect on what it means to be seen — truly seen — and to show up as our whole selves. This isn’t about performing or seeking validation. It’s about aligning your external life with your internal truth.

Here’s what Leo season asks of you:

Where have you been dimming your light?
Not the curated version of you, but the honest, alive, untamed version. Leo season is an opportunity to stop playing small and to step back into your natural radiance. Not to impress anyone, but because you exist, and that’s reason enough to shine.

Who or what do you protect like family?
Leos are fiercely loyal, not to everyone, but to those who’ve earned a place in their heart. This is a good time to reflect on your circles. Who do you show up for? Who shows up for you? What kind of protector are you?

How do you release your fire?
Fire needs a channel or it burns everything in its path. Leo energy is passionate and bold, but it also teaches us the importance of directing that energy with intention. Creativity, dance, movement, laughter, leadership — these are just some of the ways we can transmute fire into light.

What would your life look like if you led with love?
Love for others, yes. But also love for yourself. Leo season reminds us that loving ourselves isn’t selfish. It’s foundational. It’s what helps us love others more fully, more clearly, and more honestly.

As a Leo, I used to think I had to be “on” all the time. The life of the party. The helper. The protector. But as I’ve matured, I’ve come to realize that Leo energy isn’t about being loud. It’s about being real.

There is strength in presence. There is power in softness. There is fire in boundaries.

So whether you’re a Leo or not, this season is for you. It’s a time to step into your courage, speak from your heart, and stop apologizing for being who you are. It’s also a time to be gentle with yourself. To listen more closely. To rest when you need to, and roar when it’s time.

We’re all here to evolve. And that evolution, at its core, is simply a return — a return to who we’ve always been beneath the noise, the fear, and the conditioning.

Let Leo season be your permission slip to remember.
