Leo
Your psychological nature is powerful and full of self-confidence. You are a leader whose strength and nobleness command your entourage??s respect and adherence, with unchallenged legitimacy. Your ability to order, the prestige and charisma that emanate continuously from your person inevitably put you, under the spotlight, wherever you go.
With this Ascendant, you come across as proud, determined, willful, loyal, solemn, generous, ambitious, courageous, heroic, full of vitality, creative, confident, seductive, happy, daring, majestic, honest, magnanimous, charismatic, responsible, noble, brilliant, radiant, dramatic, affectionate, full of humour, demonstrative, swaggering and self-confident. You can also be domineering, conceited, touchy, authoritarian, stubborn, intolerant, self-centered, irascible,violent, and nonchalant.
How true is this for you?

I'm satisfied with mine as well. However, I've noticed something unusual in it, because I was always quite intense for many people around me, until I immediately saw the aspectual connections with other planets. In other words, my Ascendant conjuncts Orcus, who has a square with Pluto and a trine with both my Mars and Jupiter. Pretty infernal, huh?
Now, who is Orcus?
"Orcus was named for the Roman god of death, whom the Greeks called Thanatos and who is sometimes identified with Pluto. Orcus is a god of the underworld and punisher of broken oaths. His name was used to describe the underworld."
"Astrologically, Orcus seems to indicate the following: popularity, populism, private effort, the grass roots (according to Jonathan Dunn); bringing death (according to Chryss Alexander); also, audacity, boldness, "seizing the day," questioning or challenging, dissent, predatory, ravaging, corruption, a fallen state, heavy or strong retaliation, having something to say, giving up or giving in."

Pretty true for me but it contadicts my cancer moon ways so I can seem like a totally different person once you get to know me. I'm always noticed which can sometimes make me uncomfortable but having Leo rising is great to have where job/career is concerned. I never have problems finding work and people automatically trust me. Not letting my moody tendencies effect me negatively is a chore sometimes...
Leo as a rising sign still has the "center of attention" touch that the sun sign does BUT it is turned a bit more inward... as in, yes, we still are very conscious of how we appear and present ourselves but there is more of a self-conscious quality to the presentation. Always *hyper aware* of how we are coming off to our public...
This placement definitely helps with my confidence. Not only does this placement help me stay positive, but when life brings me down, I always get back up ten times better than before. This placement definitely helps me balance my Scorpio sun traits lol Here's a nice statement for Leo Rising people:
???I have the right to express my unique, individual creativity and spirit, and can do that without denying others the right to express theirs.??
Enjoy expressing yourself!

I often hear that I seem super tough and confident but only very few people know that I??m very shy. Once I was walkin through the club and others were saying that I walk like a proud sexy lioness??_ I just thought to myself ???WTF r u talkin about 1. Off I was so concentrated to not fall down in these heels (sag mars) and 2nd I was just focused to make it to the table so I can finally sit down and drink my beer ??? but thanks anyways LOL?? haha
Well I can have quite an attitude/temper, mostly I??m smiling hella bright, my laughter is damn loud and I love to entertain others, not afraid to take the lead. But then when it comes to love??_. I??m super shy
