Leo
(July 23 to August 22)
Leo is a Fire Sign
This is the sign of exuberance, denoting powerful personality and born
leadership. Both ambition and idealism are present under Leo, for the
brilliance of this sign reflects the grandeur of the governing planet, the
Sun. But Leo, as well as being high-minded, can be high-handed. When
persons of this type fall victims to their own shortcomings, the result
can prove disastrous. Worse, it is usually not noticeable until after the
crash. There is little of the negative in Leo. That is what makes this sign
deceptive and sometimes deceitful. Leo people are impulsive, generous,
and brave, quick to follow their own intuition. Their success is
furthered by their own marked influence upon all persons that they
meet, often winning over those who oppose them by their sheer
magnetic qualities. Leo people insist on charting their own course and
do so with an inherent vigor.

Leo is Fire to the core of the Sun! Fire brings a desire to create, innovate, and lead. The sign
radiates mega-confidence. Of course, the Lion must have an audience. Without applause, what
else is there? The fixed motivation adds self-reliance, a characteristic that works well in
leadership positions. Leo is a formative energy, with the ability to consolidate and stabilize. Fire
can rage out of control, so it helps to balance self-confidence with humility! Leo needs to
become a humble but lovable lion. The playfulness associated with Leo can regress to childish
demands for attention, as opposed to healthy recognition and encouragement. Leo benefits by
allowing peaceful receptivity to surface. The mature Leo exudes big, beautiful heart and sheds
sunshine on all who care to enjoy this bold spirit.
Personalities
The Positive Side of Leo:
Often Leos make good leaders. They seem to be good organizers and administrators.
Usually they are quite popular with others. Whatever group it is that he belongs to, the Leo
man is almost sure to be or become the leader.
The Leo person is generous most of the time. It is his best characteristic. He or she likes to
give gifts and presents. In making others happy, the Leo person becomes happy himself. He
like to splurge when spending money on others. In some instance it may seem that the
Leo’s generosity knows no boundaries. A hospitable person, the Leo man or woman is very
fond of welcoming people to his house and entertaining them. He is never short of company.
The Leo person has plenty of energy and drive. He enjoys working toward some specific
goal. When he applies himself correctly, he gets what he wants most often. The Leo person
is almost never unsure of himself. He has plenty of confidence and aplomb. He is a person
who is direct in almost everything he does. He has a quick mind and can make a decision in
a very short time.
He usually sets a good example for others because of his ambitious manner and positive
ways. He knows how to stick to something once he’s started. Although the Leo person may
be good at making a joke, he is not superficial or glib. He is a loving person, kind and
thoughtful.
There is generally nothing small or petty about the Leo man or woman. He does what he
can for those who deserve. He is a person others can rely upon at all times. He means
what he says. An honest person, generally speaking, he is a friend that others value.
The Negative Side of Leo:
Leo, however, does have his faults. At times, he can be just a bit too arrogant. He thinks that
no one deserves a leadership position except him. Only he is capable of doing things well.
His opinion of himself is often much too high. Because of his conceit, he is sometimes rather
unpopular with a good many people. Some Leos are too materialistic; they can only think in
terms of money and profit.
Some Leos enjoy lording over others-at home or at their place of business. What is more,
they feel they have the right to. Egocentric to an impossible degree, this sort if Leo cares
little about how others think or feel. He can be rude and cutting.
Romantic Sun Sign Profiles
Leo Introduction
The creative and romantic Lion rules the Zodiac's House of Pleasure, insuring that any romp with
this cat will include sensory as well as sensual delights. The playful Lion loves fun and is a
supremely social animal. If Leos can act out their fantasies on a public (even private) stage, all
the better, for those born under this sign truly believe they're the star. As befits the King/Queen of
the Zodiac, Leos are leaders. Their powerful presence, as well as staying power, insures them
success in their conquests. Romance is also a princely quality for the Lion, and those who
ensnare this passionate animal may well be rewarded with a wonderful and inventive lover. Like
the ruling Sun, which is at the center of the universe, Leos love to have the world revolve around
them.
Leo in Romance
Affairs of the heart will quickly take on a 'me first' quality with the Lion, since they truly believe
they are the best and must come first. Leos love to feel good, as befits royalty, so they will
respond exceptionally well to pampering and flourishes. While Leos love to be admired and
adored, they can also take the lead in romance, since they believe their strength and power will
win the day. When the Lion gets going, watch out! Passionate fireworks will fly, since these folks
know how to turn on the charm, and the heat. Since all the world's a stage to the prancing,
dancing Lion, fun, excitement and a little razzle-dazzle are all part of their repertoire. Leos are
willing to gamble where romance and love are concerned, since losing is not in their vocabulary.
Leo in Relationship
A relationship with the daring, yet devoted, Lion will rarely prove dull. This showy cat may need to
be lavished with attention, but can also ravish a lover with riches in return. A slow, smoldering pas
de deux, which leads to mutual bliss, is what the Lion would love from a partner. The fiery Lion
requires a lover who can keep up with them and certainly one who can match wits. If not, the risk
of boredom and flight is a big one, since Leo has very high expectations. A partner who can
understand and indulge the Lion's need to be the center of attention will be a keeper for this regal
cat. The ideal Leo soul mate understands the pleasure principle and will work hard to keep their
mate satisfied.
Leo in Love
The strength and amorous prowess that Leos possess makes them a natural leader in the dance
of love. This cat may want to rule, but it also wants to be admired, which makes for a love filled
with sexual tension. Even so, the Lion's generous and giving nature makes certain that a lover
will feel special. The Lion may test a lover from time to time in their quest for answers about love:
What is it really? How can I feel it the most? The one with the best answers to these questions
will surely make this cat purr. Love is a most attractive state for Leos, since the pleasure,
attraction and fun of the game are all qualities which make the Lion glow.
Leo and Sex
As befits a Fire sign, there is a great physicality, white heat and ardor which emanates from the
Lion -- in the right circumstances. The Lion wants action first and foremost, and if the moves are
being made on them, all the better. When Leos are being made love to (slow, steady love), they
are flattered into a state of ecstasy. This kind of approach will help create a Lion who is a very
confident lover. Leos are utterly aroused when a partner revels in their beauty and aura and tells
them how wonderful it is. As their gracious gift, the Lion will show their partner just how much that
Leo is a Fixed Sign, and Pisces is a Mutable Sign. Pisces doesn't need to be the boss; when they
are given a task and a way to help out, they enjoy working as hard as they can to do their part.
They get their greatest satisfaction from bettering the universe. Leo, on the other hand, is the one
who comes up with ideas in the first place and assigns roles to the others. Both enjoy working for
the underdog, and their lack of conflict over roles helps Leo and Pisces get along and work on the
same projects with great results.
compliment meant! The Lion loves seduction and foreplay, and a well-placed mirror or two would
be nice, too, since that flowing mane and cat-like quality are begging to be watched.
What Leo Needs
What the King/Queen of the Jungle wants more than anything else is to be fawned over. Being a
devoted sort, the Lion will return this gesture in kind, making a partner feel special, indeed. A
lover with the right, vibes who comes bearing gifts, exudes class and remembers that it's nothing
but the best for this stellar cat, is clever and wise. The one who can bring out the true Lion, which
is often hiding behind the glare of white lights and preening to an adoring crowd, will do both of
them a favor. In the end, Leo's lover must always remember who is number one, and act on this
all the time.
The Leo lover is giving and devoted, and lives for the pleasures that life can bring. One of these is
putting them squarely in the spotlight, where they believe they truly belong. Anyone willing to
bask in the Lion's warm glow is in for a red-hot time!
