What it means
Praise in childhood was scarce, and attention had to be earned; so creativity and self-expression are built slowly, through mastery. Mature recognition is lasting.
The flip side is fear of being ridiculous and restraint in joy; it is hard to boast even about what you earned.
Not about you if showing yourself and your successes is easy and pleasant for you.
How to check it on yourself
Check it against your past — write your answer down before you look at the chart.
If you have Saturn in Leo
What should match. Remember three of your successes. At least two you talk about little or with caveats, even though you could be proud of them.
When it’s not about you. You talk about two of the three willingly and loudly — then this is not about you.
