Leo Sun, Capricorn Rising: a grey suit hiding gold
Presenting to the board you walk in serious, data in order, with a tone that sounds ten years more experienced than you are. Your Capricorn Rising makes you look mature, distant, someone who needs no flattery. Then, right as you finish and someone says good work, your Leo Sun gives you away: the smile lasts one second longer than the character allows. That is the moment they see you.
People take you for cold and self-sufficient, when you work so hard because you want the applause to be deserved. This mix wins where seriousness opens doors: finance, management, institutions. The advice: do not wait for the title before letting yourself enjoy praise in public; thank compliments with a warm sentence instead of changing the subject, because the stiffness you consider professional makes people stop recognising you, which is what you need most.
