What these decans are read as
The second decan of Leo is read as carrying a touch of Sagittarius and Jupiter. The warmth wants to travel. These Leos tend to teach without meaning to, to love big gestures and long trips with a partner, and to get restless once the applause turns into a routine.
The third decan of Leo is read as carrying a touch of Aries and Mars. It is the Leo who would rather act than pose. People here tend to defend their own at once, to pursue openly in love and to choose work where they can win something and see that they did.
What the number 3 adds
Numerology reads a birthday that comes to 3 as the mark of a talker and a maker. It tends to mean an easy way with words, a need to express what you feel, and some trouble finishing what stopped being fun.
