Mars is the planetary
ruler of Aries. When Mars is in Leo it uses its energy/force to activate the
Leo nature. Leo is the natural owner
of the 5th house. Having Mars in Leo is the same as having Mars in the 5th
house.

Most of this is fairly accurate, but I argue that fiery, dynamism, energetic, strong, aggression, drive, body and muscles, physical activity, and masculine all definitely belong to BOTH Aries/Mars AND Leo/Sun.
ReplyDeleteLeo is the sign of the mighty LION and the SUN is the most powerful planet and governs vitality, general strength, energy, and health. And both are definitely strong, masculine, muscular energies. Leos can also have a very fierce temper as well.
So I hope this gets edited to properly reflect Leo's and the Sun's own strong, muscular and active energies.
Thanks!
I agree to a certain degree. Leo can be very powerful and authoritative, but it is also prone to sensitivity. A Leo's ego is not as strong as an Aries. An Aries doesn't need their ego constantly stroked.
DeleteI strongly disagree. The claim that Leo has a more sensitive ego than Aries is a modern claim that has been unsubstantiated.
DeleteAries is the baby of the Zodiac and the most unevolved sign. As such, ARIES is actually the sign that constantly needs approval and a parent's watchful eye. Leo is the teenager and as such is a bit more confident than baby Aries.
Leo is also a fierce and powerful LION as opposed to Aries' often unsure and sometimes meek ram (sheep family).
Another fact that modern astrologers constantly forget is to just look at the weak/awkward placements of the signs. A lack of ego or emotional sensitivity/vulnerability would show up as a weal Sun or moon placement, of which Leo has neither. So the signs that actually ARE not as confident or emotional vulnerable are: Aquarius and Libra (weakest placements of the Sun) and ironically, Scorpio and Capricorn (weakest placements for the moon which rules emotions and the inner self). Leo has no such weak placement for either planet and in fact is the strongest placement for the Sun thus indicating the strongest core.
It should also be remembered that Leo rules over wild and solitary places like forests, mountains, deserts, caves, and forts. This means that both they enjoy the outdoors and their alone time and is proof that they do NOT constantly need their ego stroked. They also don't always need luxury and in fact, Aries was the "luxurious sign " in medieval astrology while Leo was referred to as one of the "strong signs" (alongside Scorpio and Aquarius) and the only fully "feral" sign.
It's a shame that modern astrologers have bought into the baseless misconceptions that have no backing in ancient or medieval astrology or even has no backing in the astrological system itself which points to Aquarius, Libra, Scorpio and Capricorn as the least confident or most emotionally vulnerable signs.
Leo is a LION and is ruled by the almighty Sun. And like the Sun and lion, Leo does not have seek approval for its strength or skill from anyone, its power speaks for itself.
