The Moon influenced by Leo, which is also linked to the element of fire, leads individuals to take on roles of leadership, organization, and control in various areas of life, be it at home, work, or in social circles.

If they don't get enough of it, they may feel undervalued, lonely, or like they have failed.
People with a Leo Moon have a need for pride and ego nurturing. In romantic relationships, they tend to be dramatic. While they give warmth and show great affection, they expect unwavering exclusivity and constant attention. If they don't get the attention they desire, they can feel threatened.
