For starters,

I am so sick of taking care of my monthly contact lenses, I prefer dailies but the monthlies have brighter colors. Apparently going through a big ass bottle of solution EVERY month means you're doing it right vs it lasting you an entire year.

I am so sick of trying to maintain luscious tresses, I have become very methodical in every aspect, even from the moment water touches it in the shower. Pre-shower/during shower/post-shower prep and shit. Silk pillows and scrunchies, microfiber towel, to the material of the comb, IT NEVER ENDS.

I am so sick of wearing my big ass custom nightguard that dry out my mouth by morning, I wear it alongside retainers (cause I will cut a bitch if my teeth shift), so I constantly have to clean that shit in the morning too. I use retainer tablets but doc said the nightguard can get ruined so I have to manually clean it with a brush! This is on top of regular brushing, flossing and mouth washing which already take up so much time itself.

My husband and I have become sloths lately to where after dinner we usually watch something before bed but if we're too tired, we cuddle to sleep because we're so fucking tired to brush our teeth and do the whole dental hygiene ritual shebang so we will just fall asleep cuddling (this is important, it can't just be basic falling asleep, basic falling asleep makes me feel sad and unwanted, I am a needy bitch and get lured with cuddles).. and then wake up at like 3:30 fucking AM and then I'll drag my ass and his to the bathroom to brush, floss and mouthwash before going back to sleep. Because the feeling of nightguard/retainers in an unbrushed and unflossed mouth just feels gross to me. I bet a lot of people do that tho. Eck.

Sometimes I just want to be in sweats without having to worry about any of the shit above and be able to go a whole week without brushing my hair like dudes but by then knots and a bird's nest will have resided.

I can go on and onnn about the struggles. I'm constantly cautious of the ingredients in every meal I have so they don't break me out, especially on weeks where I have social events to go to. It took years and basically my entire adolescence to figure out the issue, so I sure as hell will not let it win anymore!

Sometimes I do wonder if I make my life unnecessarily difficult for myself. But don't know how to stop it.

I'm a bit confused as to what this thread is about, but I'm Leo Mars, an incredibly strong placement of it in fact-

Gives me great acting abilities.

In a soulmate, I'd like to date someone who's looks are just as good as their personality. As in I value both looks and personality, and I think most people do, really. Some just say they don't care about looks at all to save face lolol

Leo Mars is probably what makes me attract a lot of Fire Sign people, even Leo Suns and also Pisces people somehow.

Break out as in acne? Go to a doctor and ask for the generic version of epiduo. Its like $ 20 and lasts three months. Apply it to where you break out at night before bed, wash it off in the morning, dont wear it out in the sun or you'll tan like instantly lol, and your skin will be clear af in less than a week.

Is it less harsh than tretinoin? I was prescribed that when I was younger and told the acne was hormonal. That ended up being a huge lie. I can get the usual small breakouts during certain times of my cycle but nothing like the horrible cystic acne that I used to suffer from. I discovered I breakout from shellfish or any seafood heavy diet… I used to eat A LOT of seafood. Once I stopped, it’s like I became a whole other person… not a single cystic acne ever again. I don’t know if that’s better than dairy allergy.

My north node is Leo.. it’s literally the only Leo placement I have so I have a long way to go, but I do want to learn how to enjoy the finer things in life. Lol

I’m really bad with nodes. My north node is in Scorpio in the 12th house and yes it is as depressing as it sounds so I rather focus on my more shiny placements. Like my Leo placements LOVE being pampered and spoiled. It’s ridiculous. I don’t want to let that go ya know. I still have to get into getting massages. I don’t ever have enough time. Leo energy is so self-centered. Just simply start by loving yourself to bits! Believe you deserve it all and make sure you do!

I personally find Leo energy in one’s chart very strong, especially when it’s in personal planets. The energy is often associated with attention seeking, wanting the spotlight, neediness, egocentrism/narcissism, arrogance, childish, fixated with looking in the mirror, regal, elegant, playful, loyal, etc. I just wanted to see how Leo energy manifests for others. Any nitty gritty dark parts mostly. For me I can be too fixated on how I present myself to the world which is why I trouble myself with unnecessary superficial things on a daily basis. I often strive to dress my best whenever I go out. These things end up getting me lots of attention or any form of adoration/praise. My Leo placements thrive on that. What’s funny is I find all this behavior of mine very fascinating as I’m also very introverted and usually feel intolerant of people easily (probably due all the opposition to my Aqua placements).

When I was in grade school I was very drawn to theater out of all activities. It felt so empowering to me. The idea of considering trying for a local theater gives me lots of mixed feelings.

Is Mars your only Leo placement? I have that placement too and I find it makes my anger very fiery and harsh but then a few hours later I’m totally over it.

My closest friend has Sun, Mercury and Pluto in Leo

I call her the “Queen” 👸especially when she wears her shiny gold pumps😀

We were in the pub once and i shouts “make way for the Queen” 😂

Her Virgo rising looked mortified.

She is quite vain and touches her hair a lot when she’s talking. Very particular about her appearance .

She’s great fun and we laugh a lot together 🎉

What did you do to your aquarius sun?!!! You even talk like Leo 🤣

Btw I have Lilith in Leo, sun and mars in 5th house, that's as close as I can get to a Leo

Hahah. What's funny is growing up I was extremely reserved, shy, cold and quite insecure. A total full on Aqua. It wasn't until my early 20s that the Leo moon kicked in and its been taking over since. A full 180 like my sun opposite moon. I now LOVE to be dressed my best head to toe and have peoples' eyes on me at outings! I also have a Leo mars closely conjunct the moon.

I honestly don't care or have that anymore. I always knew I'd live a life fighting personal demons. No one tells you those demons can still manifest themselves into those you deeply love, even after you fool yourself into believing you won. Which is fucked.

All that is your Scorpio moon talking 190% . The pandemic has kind of changed me. I feel like it’s really important to not take life seriously and just straight up always be cute. You feel? Nothing else matters anymore!! There is no point to anything!! Just be cute and smile and make others smile with your cuteness!! Come embrace our inner Leo whiff me c:

Real talk tho, how exactly would you say these demons have been manifesting themselves into your loved ones?

Leo Moon here……I tend to complain a lot about petty stuff. Woe is me. I seriously have nothing to complain about, but will do it anyway because that’s just what my damn Leo Moon does apparently to get attention. Or maybe I’m just a horrible, ungrateful person and it has nothing to do with my Moon or astrology at all.

Btw….I hate my Leo Moon!


You're too hard on yourself. The right person will give you as much attention as you need.

A complaint is just an unheard request because you aren't happy about something. When you can find the words to let someone know exactly what you desire, instead of nagging or complaining, things can get better.

I'm sure people would also say I complain a lot but I don’t consider them petty! If I’m complaining about it, it must be very very relevant 😁 Using annoyance hasn’t really been my tactic to get attention as much as vanity has been.

I used to hate it too and be ashamed of it, I probably still am because others with it make me cringe. I cope with it by knowing all my personal planets and rising opposite and square it to oblivion so that just makes me more edgy ya kno 🤣

I'm a Leo mars

Self Centered; Egocentric; Anti-Authoritarian; Emotional; Demanding; Arrogant; Attention Seeking; Territorial; Never Forgets.

Pretty accurate. I'm not too vain though. I am confident and can act like a "know it all" but I readily admit this.

If I don't know something, then tell me so I can put it in the vault for next time.

I’m a Leo Mars too. Now what’s weird is I love constructive criticism on me and anything I do, however I hate when someone tries to tell me I’m wrong, like I end up getting very defensive about my perspective and/or intentions. Idk I’m still trying to understand it. Also I easily get over things, not to be confused with forgetting, oo I never forget. Like let’s say you’re someone close to me and we fight nonstop for an hour over something… another hour later I just wanna play like a rollie pollie. Holding grudges/staying upset is no fun. That’s Scorpio/water sign territory!
