The Sun enters Leo, zodiac sign of the Good Father, on July 22nd. But what does Good Father mean nowadays in a world of gender fluidity, sperm donors, and single-parent households headed by women more than men? Is it even relevant anymore? Let’s face it: not all dads are good – just like not all kings are just and not all leaders know where they’re going, but that doesn’t stop us from wanting them to be that way. We all want someone to look up to. Someone to be the bigger person, to take the high road, and to sit down with us and explain why bad things happen when they do. A Good Father shows up. He protects, provides, and guides – and perhaps more importantly he sets his children up for success by making sure they have the know-how to make in the real world. Hopefully you had a father like this, but even if you didn’t the Sun in Leo is here to remind you that you can be that for someone else. Be the person you were always meant to be. It’s the best example you can set for yourself and the people who rely on you.
