It is important from an early age to give him the opportunity to experience leadership, decision-making, and to teach responsibility—but without forcing it. His mission is connected with making new decisions and being creative. This is important for all zodiac signs, but especially for Leo. Already in childhood, he can be allowed to make decisions in situations appropriate for his age, so that his choice does not bring problems. This can be done through play—creating small challenges and letting him make decisions, so he sees the consequences of wrong actions (it is necessary to explain the situation). It will be very beneficial to teach the child to find non-standard solutions to complex situations. He must not be afraid to express his opinion.
Parents should praise their child for independence and courage, and tell him that he is unique and unlike anyone else. This will help avoid aggression when he feels he is not trusted. Also, he should not be called selfish. It is good to ask for his advice more often, as he is very inventive.
Such a child will benefit from engaging in sports that require self-expression and wearing bright clothes. This will help release energy, while his strength will be demonstrated through sports. Leo needs to feel like the leader, so team sports are not very suitable for him.
Awards and medals should be displayed in the child’s room, delighting him and instilling self-confidence. Such a child may overestimate his abilities. Another possible issue lies in expressing feelings toward others, as the child may lack empathy and warmth. It is important for parents to show by example how to express compassion toward those who are suffering or have been hurt. This way, the child will learn to take responsibility for others, developing his leadership qualities.
Criticism hardens Leo. If you need to correct him, do it privately; otherwise, it will cause trauma. Leo needs to hear that everything will work out for him, and if it doesn’t, nothing terrible will happen.
Compliments for Leo: “You are my sunshine.” Leo himself is a source of light for himself (not only for others), so he must know that he will succeed.
Ascendant in Virgo in a Child’s Natal Chart
Virgo is an earth sign ruled by Mercury. Such a child tends to analyze everything, explain things correctly, and draw conclusions; he has an aptitude for natural sciences.
It will be good to attend a math or biology club, a modeling or engineering club, and play games that develop creative abilities and logical thinking (puzzles, LEGO, construction sets).
This child can be entrusted with money, as he will not waste it on nonsense. From early childhood, it is necessary to instill responsibility for material values.
Virgo likes to dig into himself and into small details; he may withdraw into himself. It is necessary to discuss conflicts with the child, explain their nature, and analyze the details and causes of conflicts.
Difficulties in relationships with others are possible when the child finds it hard to connect with them. Such a child is often cautious, unable to be open and warm. Let him invite peers to your home. Organize such meetings more often. This will help the child loosen up, start smiling, and lose his guardedness. Also, various excursions and trips will make him more sociable. Take the child more often to concerts, movies, theaters, picnics, and other places, because Virgo tends to stay home too much.
Such a child needs to be taught to do nice things for people, to say kind words, and to show care in small matters. He must be taught personal hygiene, develop household skills and ingenuity, and be accustomed to manual labor.
