A North Node in the Leo sign of the Leader: "My soul's path to fulfillment”
A life's mission as seen through the eyes of the Leo sign of the zodiac...
What's your Soul's Path?
"My soul mission is to be a Leo!"
What does that mean? Well, before I answer that question, I
guess I should first present the ‘official’ version of the Leo Sign
North Node position and what it means for the individual who ‘owns’ it.
According to my friend and colleague Linda Brady, in her book "Discovering Your Soul Mission," a Leo North Node individual is the Spiritual King (metaphorically speaking). Proud,
regal, domestic, and a leader, those who have the sign of Leo
representing their Soul Potential honor and respect themselves, are
inspirational, and have a powerful presence. They are joyful,
spontaneous, and playful, yet they can be sophisticated at the same
time. Another Leonine quality is having confidence in leadership and
teaching others to do the same. Archetypes include:
• the actor;
• the leader;
• the child;
• the inspired commander;
• the sun;
• the male lion.
Can you relate to the description above? If
yes, good for you! That means that you’ve begun to move toward your
soul mission, or in other words, toward your North Node Potential. If however, you can’t relate to anything I’ve just said, that’s OK too. Remember,
you may not immediately identify with the description of your North
Node because it does not correspond to what’s familiar to you. Rather,
it signifies who you need to be and the energies your soul wants you to
bring into your life to make it more fulfilling.
Note: If you’re feeling a bit lost and have absolutely no idea what I’m
talking about, I strongly recommend that you first take a look at the zodiac compatibility
article. I think it’s important to go over the basics so that you can
get the most out of what you’re reading here. Just a suggestion!
OH...if you’ve already read the zodiac compatibility introduction, then
skip this suggestion. :-)
So...back to your original question – What does having a Leo soul mission really mean? Do you want to hear the long version or the short one? That’s what I thought! :-) OK then, for now, we’ll just begin with 10 key takeaway points.
As you look them over, I want you to think about how you can begin to
incorporate these ideas into your life. Don’t rush and try to do
everything at once. Take your time...try them out one by one...and you
will see yourself ‘blossom’ right in front of your eyes.
1. Be brave.
2. Connect to your heart, don’t ignore it and choose to depend solely on your mind.
3. Identify with the ‘child’ within.
4. Explore your creativity.
5. Don’t be afraid of love.
6. Inspire and lead others through your acts of courage.
7. Let go of the need for detachment...the Air (Aquarius) will still fill your lungs while you allow Fire (Leo) to fill your heart.
8. Surround yourself with people who love you, admire you, and believe in you.
9. Incorporate Leo symbols into your daily life to remind yourself of your Leo mission.
10. And most importantly, become the ‘Spiritual and benevolent King’ that you are meant to be!
Now, if your significant other is the one with the Leo soul mission, then it will be your job to help him develop and materialize his potential. You can start by filling his life with the energy of all things ruled by the Leo sign. Surround his living space with
Leo symbols
...feed him
Leo foods
...take him on
Leo vacations
and fill his life with any other Leo Sign trinkets that you can think
of. Do anything and everything you can to remind him of and support him
on his Leo journey. It is one of the greatest things that you could ever do for him – a gift of a true soul-mate!
Now, if you have the desire and will
to do that for your mate, good for you. And please don't worry if
you're feeling a bit overwhelmed and unsure of what to do next, that's
perfectly natural. This
stuff is sometimes too much even for the seasoned professional. So I
congratulate you for simply being here and having the desire to try.
If you find that you do need a little help, a little help is what I have for you. The
spiritual path report
can answer most of your questions regarding your mate's personality and
would be a great tool to have as you work on supporting his journey
from an Aquarius South Node (soul pattern) to a Leo North Node (soul
potential).
Having a clear idea of who your
partner is on a personality level will make it that much easier to
figure out where he's headed on a soul level. Translation: less work
for you! ;-)
Once you feel comfortable, and are
ready to proceed, take a look at the table below and try to identify
the specific Aquarius sign traits he’s trying to leave behind and the
Leo sign traits that he’s trying to master (table below compliments of "Discovering Your Soul Mission"
by Linda Brady and Evan St. Lifer):
Aquarius sign: (old patterns)---------->Leo sign: (new possibilities):
• Overly logical……………………………………….............Whimsical
• Too detached………………………………………............Self-confident
• Oblivious……………………………………………...............Leader
• Intolerant…………………………………………….............Dramatic
• Meddlesome…………………………………………............Generous
• Cold…………………………………………………...............Fun-loving
• Remote……………………………………………….............Courageous
• Repressed……………………………………………...........Commanding
• Impersonal………………………………………….............Exuberant
• Radical……………………………………………….............Heart-centered
• Opinionated…………………………………………............Inspiring
• Too unpredictable…………………………………...........Dignified
• Erratic………………………………………………...............Influential
• Aloof ………………………………………………................Willing to act
As I mentioned before, if you look over this list and notice any of the
Leo traits peeking through your man’s personality, it will be your job
to support them. For
instance, if he comes home one day and tells you that he wants to
become a mentor for a child – support him. If he decides that he wants
to build an airplane in your back yard – support him. If he wants to
take acting lessons – support him. If he wants to play a game with you
that he just made up – support him. If he wants to start a company that
he feels will represent his vision – support him. You get the idea, right? SUPPORT HIM!
Once the both of you decide on, learn how to, and commit to doing that
for each other, there will be no question in either of your minds that
you have found your ‘true’ soul-mate, the soul-mate of your life!
Are you ready to surprise
your man in ways he never could have imagined? Want to create an
environment where he can really flourish? Wonderful! By utilizing the
insights provided below in combination with your own imagination, you
will not only succeed in inspiring him, but will also simultaneously
reward yourself as well.
Let’s get started!

I know that after exploring
all of these links, you’ll feel a bit overwhelmed. I realize that it’s
quite a bit of information to absorb all at once. But I assure you that
it will be well worth the effort. Incorporating
‘little Leo reminders’ into your daily life will not only help you move
closer to the Leo soul’s mission, but will undoubtedly assist you in
discovering true domestic bliss! Try it and be the judge yourself!
There is one other important point
that I’d like to mention – something that applies to both you and your
partner (depending on which one of you has this nodal
position...possibly the both of you). You
might recall that I initially said that part of the Leo soul mission is
to move forward, away from the Aquarius South Node characteristics.
But, I would like to clarify that and let you know that it doesn’t mean
that the positive Aquarius traits have to be discarded. It took
lifetimes for you to develop the person that’s here today, hard work
that shouldn’t be ignored or forgotten.
The key is to fuse the positive traits that you brought with you from the past with the current ambitions reflected by your North Node position. The
point is to develop a personality that’s truly integrated. Our past is
as much a part of us as our future, so be wise and use all the ‘gifts’
that you’ve accumulated – the world needs ALL of you!
The following is a list of ‘trait combinations’
that I started for you. It combines two traits from each sign leading
to a holistic integration of both polarities. I want you to use the
words on the list to remind yourself of the type of person you want to
become and for harnessing the unique Leo mission that you’re here to
fulfill.
Please don’t think, however, that
this list says it all. I want you to continue adding to it until it
describes ALL that you want to become. Once that’s done, you can refer
back to it anytime you feel a bit lost or off track. The
road is not always without bumps, so be patient. You WILL become the
YOU that you’ve always dreamed of – I have faith in you!
You can begin by combining within yourself the...
• Aquarius sign of Philanthropy with the Leo sign of Leadership to become the ‘Philanthropic Leader’
• Aquarius sign of Individuality with the Leo sign of Inspiration to become the ‘Inspiring Individualist’
• Aquarius sign of Inventiveness with the Fun-Loving sign of Leo to become the ‘Fun-Loving Inventor’
• Aquarius sign of Tolerance with the Dignified sign of Leo to become the model for ‘Dignified Tolerance’
• Aquarius sign of Friendliness with the Leo sign of Generosity to become the ‘Generous Friend’ to all
• Aquarius sign of Social Activism with the Commanding sign of Leo to become the ‘Commanding Social Activist’
• Intellectual Aquarius sign with the Heart-Centered Leo sign and become the ‘Heart-Centered Intellectual’
• Aquarius sign of Idealism with the Leo sign of Exuberance to become the ‘Exuberant Idealist’
• Imaginative Aquarius sign with the Leo sign of Leadership to become the ‘Imaginative Leader’
• Aquarius sign of the Truth-Seeker with the Faithful Leo sign to become the ‘Faithful Truth-Seeker’
• Progressive Aquarius sign with the Enthusiastic Leo sign to become the ‘Progressive Enthusiast’
• Intellectual Aquarius sign with the Expansive Leo sign to become the ‘Expansive Thinker’
• Independent Aquarius sign with the Creative Leo sign to become the ‘Independent Creator’
• Aquarius sign of Originality with the Influential sign of Leo to become the ‘Original Influencer’
• Aquarius sign of the Truth-Seeker with the Leo sign of Courage to become the ‘Courageous Truth-Seeker’
The rest of the list is up to you to finish!
Sorry to leave you hanging like
that. But in order for me to go deeper into your specific motivations,
I need to know your exact birth data. Otherwise, I would be no
different than the tabloids – offering you information that that
describes not only you, but also the other millions of people born
under the sign of Leo as well. Wouldn’t be too enlightening, would it?!
If you want to learn more about your unique truth, check out the
spiritual path report.
You'll be pleasantly surprised.
Well, that’s it for now.
