Born on August 1

Leo

First through the door and happy in your own company, you leave the path easier for everyone who follows.

Sunflowers fill their kitchen every summer, and the rest of the place has the same bright, open-handed feel: doors open, music on, compliments handed out freely.

Decisions don’t hang about with them. Born on the 1st, they weigh things up, choose, and then make the choice work, usually by approaching it from a direction nobody else had considered.

Their pride in their friends is loud and generous, and they show it openly, so the people close to them always know exactly where they stand: firmly in the front row, being applauded.

A gift idea for someone born on August 1

Give a secondhand deckchair a coat of sunny yellow paint, for the warmest spot in their garden on long summer afternoons.
