Leo Zodiac Sign

About Leo Zodiac Sign

Wherever they go, a Leo feels the spotlight on themselves! So this Sun-kissed fire sign may feel the urge to put on a good show. With their natural flair for the dramatic, and impeccable sense of style, there’s often a Leo shining at the center of the party.

But feeling like you’re always on can be quite exhausting. If you’re a Leo, cut yourself a little slack. Even Hollywood stars get a laugh from their blooper reels. Playtime is what you need to recharge your batteries. Find a place where no one is watching — or where the audience will love you regardless.

Leo in Relationships

If you’re in a relationship with a Leo, showing how much you value their gifts is a way their heart. There’s something regal about these folks, so if there’s something you need, pretend you’re asking the king (or queen) for a favor. They are usually generous souls, if they don’t feel like they’ve been given an ultimatum.

Other fire (Aries and Sagittarius) and air signs (Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius) are Leo’s natural playmates — they help keep your energies sparkling. Earth (Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn) and water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces) are more challenging — earth signs can feel too heavy, and water signs too moody. Nevertheless, you need them for a well-rounded package — maybe as your manager or publicist.

Leo Astrology Keywords

    Hi,

    While I do like some of your website, I find it disappointing that your keywords for Leo are overly soft.

    Leo is not just “caring, warm, generous, creative” and all that other soft stuff. They are also aggressive, fierce, determined, courageous, temperamental, powerful, dynamic, and protective.
    It’s symbolized by a mighty lion, not some show kitty. And its supposed “ego” is no more “fragile” than any other sign.

    Modern astrologers need to stop the double-standards of letting those of other signs provide feedback when defending their signs but then calling Leos “fragile” and “egotistical” for doing the same, especially since I couldn’t help but notice that Aries, another sign that craves attention
    and is considered the “baby” of the Zodiac was described as “powerful” rather than “fragile.” Seems a bit hypocritical. Modern astrologers need to understand that lions will attack if wronged.

    Leo is symbolized by a mighty and fierce lion, not a show kitty. So its keywords should be just as fierce.
    Lions are stronger and more powerful than a scorpion or ram and that should be acknowledged.

    And the Sun bestows strength, courage, energy, willpower, dominance, and health, not just ego or creativity. It’s the most powerful force in the solar system. So if anything symbolizes power, it’s the Sun…not Mars or Pluto which are both far weaker planetary bodies.

    Leo rules the Strength Tarot Card and the 5th House which includes sports and athletics (not just the exaggerated creative arts).

    So there’s a lot of Leo’s strengths, boldness, and fierceness that were left out. I hope more of Leo’s fiercer qualities can be included.

    Thanks!

    Hi,

    While I do like some of your website, I find it disappointing that your keywords for Leo are overly soft and exaggeratedly to do with the “drama” thing.

    Leo is not just “caring, warm, generous, playful, creative” and all that other ridiculously soft stuff.

    Leos traits should be: aggressive, fierce, determined, courageous, temperamental, powerful, dynamic, and protective. It’s symbolized by a mighty LION, not some show kitty.

    Leo combines the energy of a fire sign with the strength of a fixed sign.

    And the Sun governs overall strength, intelligence, fire, destructiveness (the Sun’s power is FAR greater than tiny Pluto’s), health, identity, courage, and energy.

    Also, Leo’s mostly modern association with the 5th House is also exaggerated since it was a House governed by Venus, not the Sun. And it’s associated with sports, games and athletics too, not just the exaggerated theatre and children. (In fact, Leo and the Sun were said to bestow infertility!)

    I really hope Leo’s page gets edited to better reflect its power and ferocity rather than the grossly exaggerated “kitty” traits modern astrologers seem keen to force on it. But then they hype up the supposed “power” of a tiny arachnid.

    Thanks for listening.

    Thank you for standing up for Leo. I have a Leo ascendant.

      Cool. Glad you agree. Hopefully then Leo’s page can be edited to better reflect that strength.

    As a Leo with lots of Pluto and Scorpio in my chart, I have to defend that “little arachnid” you describe!
    The Sun and Pluto have one key thing in common: they are both absolutely relentless.
    The Sun appears daily and gives us light without EVER asking whether we want it. Even hidden behind the thickest cloud, it’s THERE in the daytime. And it doesn’t go away until day is “done”.
    Invisible little Pluto grinds away at her current obsession, never asking what it is that YOU want – she decides for you.

      Pluto is exalted in Leo, but tiny Pluto os no match for the behemoth of power that is the Sun.

      Cool. Glad you agree. Hopefully then Leo’s page can be edited to better reflect that strength.
