My father - Leo moon and Leo rising my mother - Leo moon my youngest brother - Leo sun, Leo moon middle brother - sun in the first house Me - Leo rising. Whatever doubts I had about astrology before then, when I saw the uncanny similarities between our charts, all those doubts dissolved. In the family I was raised in, Leo was king, although I didn’t know what that really meant until I became obsessed with astrology and tarot in my late twenties and reviewed the birth charts of my parents and two brothers. When you enter a room you secretly hope everyone will stand up and sing a few stanzas of the Hallelujah Chorus!” Personal Observations of Leo: Whatever you do, you do with a flair for the dramatic - everything about you is theatrical. Self-assurance surrounds Leo people…While others wait in the wings, you bask in the spotlight. Whatever kingdom it is (home, relationship, business, creative project, etc), you are unquestioningly ruler of this kingdom. Quote from an Expert: Joanna Martine Woolfolk writes about Leo (in her book The Only Astrology Book You’ll Ever Need): Negative Characteristics: Autocratic, boastful, braggadocious, bullying, childish, cruel, egotistical, narcissistic, pretentious, overbearing, status-conscious, vain. Positive Characteristics: ambitious, assertive, bold, confident, creative, dignified, dramatic, generous, idealistic, optimistic, romantic, self-assured. Ruling planet: the Sun - center of our solar system (although many Leos, unsurprisingly, consider themselves to be the center of the solar system). Leo (July 23 - August 22) is the second fire sign in the zodiac, the fifth sign overall, and rules the fifth house (the fifth house rules sports, children, creativity, romance, fun, the love you give, and love affairs). Note: B.O.T.A stands for Builders of the Adytum, a mystery school still in existence today, founded by Paul Foster Case.
A significant difference from the Rider-Waite version, the woman is pictured opening the lion’s mouth, where the R-W rendition shows her closing the mouth. The B.O.T.A version of the Strength card.
