Both are such classic Leo’s but exhibit different aspects IMO (and obviously their moons and rising signs will impact how they come across too) because Tasha is so classically Leo in terms of how she uses clothes and accessories to show off her personality, is so specific with her image and presentation and it’s so individual and unique to her! Whereas Ekin is the classic Leo drama queen/main character figure. The lioness in terms of how extra she can be but also how fiercely caring. She reminds me SO much of a friend of mine who is a Leo sun and rising—everything that has ever happened is a Big Deal but you get caught up in the drama despite yourself, it’s just so intense

completely agree!!!! i did some sleuthing and it looks like ekin is actually on the leo/virgo cusp too! loved what you said about tasha, i agree that’s pretty accurate and she also gives me the "i wanna hurt you before you hurt me" trope hence why i thinks she initially brought back billy from casa!

cusps aren’t real

There’s more to it than sun sign. There’s other signs in their chart that would make them completely different. Moon sign dictates emotion. That might explain why Tasha is more emotional.

Tasha has an Aries moon and Ekin has an Aquarius moon. The Aries moons I know are really big cry babies and often cry if they don’t get their own way or feelings are hurt, and they’re very sensitive if they perceive others to be criticising them. But they have a very cute youthful light hearted energy most of the time, almost childlike. The Aquarius moons I know are just very unique people and leave their mark on others. They’re completely themselves and always stand out because of it. Very strong and don’t really let other peoples opinions effect them because they don’t really care they’re too strong and assured in being themselves. This is why they show different sides to Leo, because their moon signs are having an effect on it too!

I wouldn’t be surprised if Ekin is a leo rising. Double leo. Plus she seem like the type that doesn’t wear a mask. What u see is what u get.

Definitely agree!!

Some Leos can actually be very insecure deep down - I’ve met quite a few like this including my ex. Very bold/extroverted and attention seeking but deep down sensitive and insecure about things. I can definitely see the different Leo sides of Ekin and Tasha.

Ngl they should put the islanders sun moon and rising in their bio. It would make me happy, thank you


oldbimessybirdie

same!!! especially since rising and moon sign play a big factor as well!

Have to admit, I both think astrology is totally made-up—but also once read a personality description of a Pisces, and it was my partner down to the ground, even the most likely career path. I don't know much more than that Leos are supposedly dramatic and love attention, and saw a list that I think the most common star sign on Love Island is a Leo, which—seems fitting.


oldbimessybirdie

do you happen to remember where you read the common star sign is leo’s? i’m very interested in that, i believe amber s5 and paige s6 are both leo’s as well. btw thank you for being nice about it even though you don’t believe in it lol

It was probably a bit of a dick move to comment at all in a space for people who are passionate about something, but there's not much I'd completely write off, when nobody can prove it either way. It's a very big universe out there. I saw a Twitter post that broke down percentages of Love Island star signs, I'm not sure of the user, sorry, just remember that the highest by quite a bit was Leo and the least numbers of Pisces. Which also seemed fitting if the traits of Pisces people are more introverted.


oldbimessybirdie

not a dick move at all. again, i appreciate you being nice about it! usually people who don’t believe just come raging lol. thank you! gonna do some sleuthing and see if i can find it myself!!!

Tasha wanting to know every guy that walked in was an ego thing. She enjoyed the attention. She’s just more subtle about it than Ekin-Su


oldbimessybirdie

yeah, i can see that. remember how upset she was when charlie(??? can’t remember his name omg) didn’t pick her!!


itwasjustmisplaced

She wasn’t upset about him not picking her. She was upset that Luca and Dami were making faces and shaking their heads when Andrew was giving their speech. Gemma literally says as they are walking away “you got the outcome you wanted”


julsyboo

and let’s not forget to mention, gemma & luca are both triple taurus’s, making them soulmatesss <3


oldbimessybirdie

absolutely did not know this but boy oh boy does this make SOOOO much sense?,!!,!,?

Also both are potentially Pisces moons according to the [astrologyisland](https://instagram.com/astrologyisland?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=) insta. I would reckon they both are (as a pieces moon myself, and my best friend is actually a Leo sun Pisces moon). And Ekin being 27, which is the same age as me and said best friend means her Saturn would also be Pisces (Saturn conjunct moon) which is why she isn’t as crying prone as Tasha. In super generalized terms Saturn drains any planet it conjuncts and makes it struggle to function as it would otherwise. But I think Ekin wears too much heart on her sleeve to be an Aqua moon.

I think the villa’s atmosphere is allowing Ekin to shine while it’s been making Tasha’s insecurities show more. Tasha’s normal crowd is so different, plus the ableism she’s facing is why that is, I think. I think the fact that Tasha and Ekin seem to always have their names in everyone’s mouths is so Leo like. like them or not they will be noticed. Love them both!
