Esoteric Leo: Your Love Quality

Living From The Heart.

Do you remember the super strength that Superman had? It was the ability to direct all the powers of the universe to attend to his needs, and still be gentle in his use of his strength. He knew the source of his strength, acknowledged it, and used it compassionately because he had overcome the beasts within his own nature, and therefore could not be ruled by his little ego. He was so centered in love that it allowed his strength to operate more justly. It is a fine balance to be able to direct so much power with generosity of spirit, to be praised for doing so much good yet remain humble, to be available to anyone that requires help, without becoming self-absorbed.

The Sun represents this image, and as a Leo our task is to manage the beasts within ourselves with loving understanding that suggests to the subconsciousness that we would not abuse our powers. As the beasts of passion are mastered within, by keeping our pride in check, we awaken to the awareness of being an expression of that power.

The more we use the “big stick” on our own passions and desires, the more strength we receive to overcome temptations not in harmony with our self-image, and the more courage we will be given to overcome our obstacles. Being an expression of powers that are not ours, and being open to an infinite source of love, balances the pride that wielding this kind of power can create. Since creating is connected with the reproductive energy, so too, do any hang-ups or extreme attitudes toward this energy hinder our growth. To truly live from the heart is to imagine an image for ourselves as being something more than merely human, and passion “mastered” is the force that will take us there. The way to master passion is to surrender to an image of the universe as having the full control (Neptune exalted in Leo), and us as an expression of its loving kindness. (Sun as ruler)
