The third decan of Leo represents a time of intense trials. The triumph seen in the second face of Leo shifts into a spirited battle to maintain what has been earned. Achievement alone does not guarantee stability—one must defend their position against opposing forces both internal and external.  Strength of spirit does not depend on physical might or favorable circumstance, the unconquerable heart emerges only in the absence of such comforts—when allies are gone, when the enemy is near, and the body falters. The third decan of Leo represents inspiration—it lifts spirits and boosts morale. As the most enduring of inner resources, courage is called upon when one’s reserves are nearly exhausted and standing firm against resistance is paramount.
