Characteristics of a Leo-Virgo Cusp
If taken individually, Leo is ruled by the Sun, and Virgo is ruled by planet Mercury. However, in this case, both Leo and Virgo are ruled by the Sun and Mercury. According to ancient Roman mythology, Mercury was the messenger of God, who was quick and was known for strong logic and analyzing capacity. Thus, communication was his forte. The Sun was believed to be the center of the universe; the core of existence, which explains the social, fun-loving, and enthusiastic nature of people born on this cusp. Leo's foremost need is to create, and Virgos try to bring their talents and skills together for the good of others. A mix of the practical and earthy qualities of a Virgo, when coupled with the highly intuitive and fiery traits of a Leo, gives an interesting blend of the two, often the one who keeps his/her light within.
