August 12th Zodiac

August 12th is a date with a certain mystery to it, rewarding one with intense feelings and an important family story that is to illuminate their own inner world. It is a time when things should be initiated only when our souls are ready to face the challenge and the consequence of the moment, and tenderness is to be built even if there was none in the first part of life of those born at this time.

August 12th Horoscope

The call of such entities in the planetary row of those born on August 12th is intensely linked to their emotional state prior to all other factors. They will seek personal satisfaction and happiness at any cost, and easily end up wounded if they rush into relationships that they aren’t really ready for. When in touch with their emotions and deeply nurtured and supported in their primal family, these Leos have a chance to connect to others on a deeply spiritual level, while remaining in a constant state of childish joy, relaxed and ready for the world to come to them.

With two Suns set in their second planetary row, conflicts may arise with authority figures and matters of respect for others and self-respect will turn out to be their most important guidance in time. Their lives will be rich with emotion that is to be protected from influences of ego battles and other people's projections that really shouldn’t be taken personally. As they raise their own awareness to a higher plane, the outer world will reply with a smile and they will reach the position that they deserve.

Love and Emotions

Love life of Leos born on August 12th is their most vulnerable and most rewarding point, and even though we cannot see Venus in their planetary row, their relationships play the most important role in their lives. To connect with their partner completely and without restraint, they have a task of cleaning their emotional world and their waters, what ancestors left as non-pleasant and in ways dismissed, and this could push them into strange relationships with partners that nobody expects them to choose.

As their heart is cleansed and their vision clears up, they find partners to build a home with, those who will support their deepest emotional states, even if they aren’t well accepted by the rest of the world. Their frailty is an issue on its own, and it should be approached with extreme care or they might push themselves too far and stay too long with partners that don’t make them happy. They need someone gentle and touchy, while at the same time passionate enough to follow in their pace and understand their sensitivity behind their fiery appearance.
