"This zodiac sign has been sapped of their life force for years. Literally years," as astrologer named Evan Nathaniel Grim explained. In August, that all changes. As the spotlight shines down on them, this astrological sign remembers how truly special they are. When they believe in themselves, anything is possible.

Life hasn't been easy, Leo, but this month, you are finally getting a reprieve. The New Moon and Solar Eclipse in your sign fall on August 6, marking the start of your major comeback. With the Sun and Jupiter also in your sign, the positive qualities of Leo are emphasized. We're talking traits like confidence and star power.
"When you put yourself front and center, when you let your creativity shine, you get rewarded," Grim said. "You're no longer hiding off to the side of the stage. That was so Saturn in Pisces for you."
It's as though your life force is finally returning, and you're feeling better than you have in a long while. You were never meant to live in the shadows, so embrace this energy and stand in the spotlight. Be your authentic self and believe that is enough, because it definitely is.
Life is getting way better for Leo now that the Sun is in your sign.
We're in the middle of Leo season, and of course, that means great things for you. The Sun rules over your sign, so you have an unshakeable commitment to finding and sharing joy. You always make an effort to surround yourself with what and who make you happy, and in August, that jumpstarts your comeback.
"For some of you, that's gonna mean returning to an activity you did as a kid. For others, that's opening the guitar case and humming a tune," the astrologer explained. "Or maybe your relationship's been dry as a bone, and you finally wanna take your partner on a date. Perhaps you're a performer, and you haven't hit the stage in a while, and you finally get the opportunity to put on a show."
Overall, it's about letting yourself have fun and spend time doing the things that bring you joy. Play is an important part of life, even if you forgot that fact for a while. It's easy to get distracted by work and all of life's responsibilities, but the Sun in your sign reminds you why you are really here.
The South Node in Leo challenges you to seek validation from within.
At the end of July, the South Node moved from Virgo into Leo. The South Node represents what must release in order to grow. In your case, this is about letting go of your need for external validation, and finding it within yourself. Sure, you like to perform, but as Grim put it, "you don't want self-consciousness or cautiousness to outweigh your need to express your essence."
Be authentic and make bold moves, without caring whether or not other people will approve. Perform for your own sake, and not because you want applause. You are in the midst of a major comeback, but you must remember who you are and what you deserve.
"Recharge your engines, get that rocket fuel, and hit the next level," Grim advised. You're entering a powerful new era, and it's going to be big. Go forth like the stars you are!
