An uplifting ray of light...
I have never been able to corroborate the sense of sunshine bursting through 'just after' a storm in leo 16. In line with that image, one can easily imagine a storm such as a thunder storm that arises quickly, dominates the heavens and passes quickly.
And we all have seen and experienced this many times.
But suggestion, 'just after a storm' has never really shown in any way I can attest to. I would gladly hear from others who can attest otherwise.
What seems to be the consistent theme here is a pervasive influence.... much like a heavy storm system that moves in for days. Low lying clouds, rain and scarcely a hint of movement. Then, after all seems to be shrouded in a heavy blanket of darkness, a rent in the clouds appears letting in a brilliant ray of sunlight.
Supporting this take on Leo 16, is the opposing degree Aquarius 16 "A big business man at his desk". This symbol is about pervasive influence. The 'desk' image calls in convex and concave spectral influence: something can be magnified or microfied (is that a word?).
The disc shape is like the skies heavily laden with cloud cover. The 'sunshine' like a pinpointed ray of focused light that breaks through.
Another theme, following the childbirth motif from the preceding degree-symbols, would be postpartum depression. Think of the mood of days upon days of heavy cloud cover. The mood says it all.
