Born at this point in Leo season
Born in the opening stretch of Leo, this person arrives while summer is still building. Plans made in that early warmth can feel bigger than the room allows. Years later, they notice they wanted to be seen before they knew how to ask. Their steady warmth is real, but so is the pull to hold back when the crowd gets loud. Both pulls belong to the same person.
