Born at this point in Leo season

Born early in Leo, this person arrived while summer heat was still building. Fire gives them a wish to be noticed for real effort, and the fixed quality makes them loyal to choices once made. Saturn in the background adds a habit of checking the work before calling it done. When a friend suggests a bold new plan, they say yes with warm confidence, then spend the first week testing every step until it holds their weight.
