How these two meet

Leo and Leo: the accusation neither of you has made, and eleven years of not being bored.

The accusation neither of you has ever made, and that you have both assembled in private, is that the other one needs it more.

It is not true and it is not false. What is true is that there is no audience in this house, and you each built a life on the assumption that there would always be one somewhere in the room.

So the two of you go out a great deal. Not because either of you is shallow: because a room with other people in it has been the only place either of you could give the other one what they came for.

The Sun does not move off its centre and it never turns back. It is one of exactly two bodies here that never goes retrograde, and there is no second ruler in this house to argue with it. Two Suns, one wheel.

And here is what has been going on in the kitchen at eleven at night, when there is nobody to perform for: neither of you has once been bored of the other one. That is the whole of it. It is not a large finding and it is the only one that has held for eleven years.

What would it take for one of you to be the audience?

For one of you, the work is watching the other do the thing, at home, with nobody else there, and saying so afterwards.

For the other, the work is doing it anyway, at home, in the smaller version, and not apologising for the size.

And a third: the accusation is going to keep assembling itself. Say it out loud once and it stops being a private document.

Two Suns and no second body anywhere in the house, and after eleven years the finding is that neither of you has been bored, which is small and unglamorous and is not going to make anybody envy you, and it is the thing that has actually held.

The same thirty degrees

Nought degrees apart, because it is the same thirty degrees of sky. Two people under one sign share an element, a modality and a ruling body, and the wheel offers nothing here to negotiate. That is the whole situation: no friction built in, and no counterweight either. Whatever this sign does well happens twice over, and whatever it looks away from, nobody in the room is built to notice.

The ruler

Both halves of this page are the same thirty degrees, so there is only one body in it: the Sun. It is one of exactly two things on this wheel that never turn backwards. Over a century of ephemeris the Sun does not retrograde once, and neither does the Moon; everything else does, some of them for a third of their lives. There is no second ruler here to argue with the first, and no reversal to slow it down.

When Is the Sun in Leo?

These are the real dates, calculated with the Swiss Ephemeris rather than the fixed calendar most sign pages repeat. All times are UTC.

A sign is still a general lens: it says nothing about where your Moon or your Venus actually fell. A synastry report reads your two real birth charts against each other, with the aspects that are genuinely there.
