Sun in Leo with Moon in Virgo and Cancer Rising Personality Traits:

With a Leo Sun Virgo Moon, you are discriminating, analytical, and discriminating. The outward show of leadership and aggression masks an inner nature that is cautious and somewhat hesitant. Rather than gaining the power and prestige you crave through active leadership, you seek influence through mental endeavors. Forsaking the sword, you reach for the pen.

The Leo Sun Virgo Moon combination is somewhat paradoxical: Your Leo Sun wants status, recognition, and authority—but your Virgo Moon requires the stability and security of a less risky role.

As an individual with a Leo Sun Virgo Moon, inhibition often keeps you from taking on the position of leadership you feel you deserve. In addition, your desire for attention and admiration must also compete with your need to be of service to others. But, for the most part, both sides of your nature work together harmoniously. Although you may not be a dynamic executive or administrator, you still manage to voice your opinions and use your organizational skills to command power from behind the scenes.

If you have a Leo Sun Virgo Moon, if you have one flaw, it is that there are times when you can be highly judgmental, even arrogant, in your opinions and assumptions. Although your observations are usually uncannily accurate, you tend to be a little too outspoken in expressing them. It’s little wonder you so frequently alienate people.

Having a Leo Sun Virgo Moon, you channel much of your Leo ardor and enthusiasm into work, and living up to the rigorous demands of that Leo ego can make you a workaholic. If you cannot lead them, you will out produce them. A too exacting perfectionist, you may push yourself too far. Try not to be so hard on yourself, or you will lapse into states of hypercriticism, agitation, and acute anxiety—and you may project your frustrations onto friends and associates. Instead, use your rigid moral code to inspire those around you.

With a Leo Sun Virgo Moon, socially, you are outgoing, charming, and congenial, and, although you long to be the life of the party, the center of attention, Virgo’s emotional reserve holds you back. It’s difficult to fully let go of those inhibitions, perhaps because of guilt about indulging too heartedly or allowing yourself too much pleasure.

Professionally, the Leo Sun Virgo Moon combination is ideally suited to journalism and communications, in addition to pursuits that require mental acuteness and detailed analysis. Although you work best in a structured and well-organized framework, it is important that your sense of independence and courage be allowed some freedom of expression.

Romance may be difficult for the Leo Sun Virgo Moon individual. Sensual and outgoing Leo struggles with inhibited Virgo. Your sense of honor and ethical Puritanism may cause confusion when you encounter changing sexual mores.

If you have a Leo Sun Virgo Moon, you search for the ideal partner with whom to share a lifelong relationship, but with such perfectionist standards, choosing the ideal partner (much less finding one) can be a quixotic quest. Once you do become romantically attached, learn to curb your criticisms and cultivate tolerance.

Keywords For A Leo Sun Virgo Moon:

Cancer Rising

If you have Cancer Rising, you are very sensitive to emotional signals from other people. You have extraordinary insight into human motivation. There is a reserve about you that is sometimes difficult to penetrate, but underneath is a warm, affectionate, loving, and giving nature.

With Cancer Rising, you are adaptable to different kinds of people even though you are not liable to make instant friendships. It takes a while for you to let someone get really close.

Cancer Rising individuals tend to moodiness, and others may not always find you in a receptive frame of mind. Sometimes you can be crabby and impatient and exhibit a snappish temper. You are touchy, and others have to be careful of what they say lest they hurt your feelings. Your sensitivities are so heightened that you sometimes take offense where none was intended.

However, with Cancer Rising, this same sensitivity is what sets you apart from the crowd. You possess great imagination and awareness. Many Cancer Rising individuals are extraordinarily gifted as writers, poets, and painters. Because you are so tuned in to the nuances of other people’s motivations, you are able to absorb what others are feeling and thinking. You pick up opinions, thoughts, facts from all around you and, being very clever and practical (as well as visionary), you are able to put all this information to work for you.

Cancer Rising individuals are also clever with money, prudent and cautious, and have a native shrewdness in business. You know how to make wise investments and where to get the best value. Though you usually have to climb the ladder through your own efforts (rather than the efforts of others), you are likely to accumulate material success as the years go by.

You won’t hog the spotlight, but on the other hand you want public recognition for your talents. With Cancer Rising, acclaim and applause can be hard to come by, so you tend to have a way of feeling sorry for yourself. You complain that the world does not appreciate you, but your complaint is usually an effort to win reassurance that quite the opposite is true.

As a Cancer Rising you have obstacles in your path, especially when young. However, as you surmount each difficulty and succeed (Cancer Rising has great tenacity of purpose), you become stronger and more self-assured.

If you have Cancer Rising, you are likely to have a round expressive face, pale luminous eyes, slender arms and legs, and a rolling gait to your walk. Your body may be thickset through the middle, and you are prone toward putting on weight as you get older.

The Moon, which rules Cancer, is very prominent in your birth chart. The influence of the Moon bestows kindness, imagination, sympathy, deep emotion, an ability to cherish and protect, a retentive memory. It also encourages laziness, inconstancy, restlessness, passivity, and untidiness.
