Pisces sun Leo rising, you find comfort in the accumulation of your daily victories despite a chronic lack of confidence you suffer from.

Your self-esteem is a powerful motivator, very positive if it doesn't turn into megalomania and if you don't stubbornly cling to rigid opinions. When something strikes your conscience, the impact is profound; you immediately connect it with your ideals.
Capricorn sun Leo rising, you overflow with great ambitions, love for a job well done, and exorbitant demands on everyone, including yourself. You try to fill your inner solitude by seeking a reliable and, above all, warm partner to brighten your daily life. When you have taken sides for an idea, a goal, or a person, you put your honor at stake to motivate yourself and win.
Sagittarius sun Leo rising, you have the bearing of a grand nobleman, your gait is regal, your nobility natural, your contagious enthusiasm, and your high ambitions.

You aspire to a life of independence or a position of responsibility because you find it difficult to see your talents drowned in the crowd.

Qualities and flaws alternate between professional efficiency and sensitivity, business acumen, but also critical thinking...

Your broad-mindedness coexists with meticulousness to, at best, achieve a fulfilling balance in all areas.
