At the heart of the Leo message this season is a powerful truth that requires some investigating: Nothing can hurt us. Not because we are invulnerable, but because we are willing to feel everything. Emotional resilience is not about avoiding pain, it is about feeling every emotion.
When we are not afraid to feel anything, nothing can truly hurt us. If it hurts, we can handle it because it is all just feelings – our own feelings. And that changes how we frame everything.
When we are no longer afraid of certain emotions, we stop avoiding them. We stop creating stories to justify them or run from them. They just are.
This is not about rejecting any emotion, but embracing them all. Even the so-called negative ones - shame, blame, guilt - they all have their place. In fact, some of the most destructive behaviours in the world come from people who refuse to feel these emotions. Imagine if they allowed themselves to feel shame, how much harm they could avoid causing. Emotions serve a purpose. They are guides, not enemies.
So we ‘Investigate’ to question the stories we tell ourselves about how we feel. To be curious about what emotions really mean, rather than relying on muscle memory or conditioned responses.
Hawthorn oracle:
"The fulfillment of your love
Awaits you,
That which you long for
Like the water of life itself.
Glimpse the sacred marriage!
But do not search outside
For what you cannot find within."
This is about doing things from love, not searching for love. It is about reframing everything from the inside out. Leo is still at the centre of the solar system, but this is not about self-importance. It is about emotional boldness, about holding the space for everything and everyone.
‘Into the Lonely Woods’ offered the perfect card for an 8th house transit: ‘Our Shadows Are Beautiful’.
The transformation happening now is about integration, not rejection. Our shadows are not enemies. They are a part of us, waiting to be seen, waiting to be loved. This is about emotional courage, about daring to feel it all.
This is Leo’s ultimate act of bravery. To be bold enough to feel everything. Because when we are willing to feel it all, nothing can hurt us.
This emotional resilience is part of Leo’s Pluto quest. Pluto’s journey through Capricorn forced Leos to confront toxic productivity and unhealthy routines. But now, as Pluto moves into Aquarius, the focus shifts to relationships. Leo is ready to build dynamic, authentic connections that reflect a new sense of balance. This transformation is not just personal but collective. Leo’s shift toward balanced relationships invites the world to rethink connection and community. More on this in the Pluto quest below.
