The Sign
Leo is characterized by the lion, a symbol of pride, dignity, and nobility. Perhaps more than some other personality types, Leos can be deeply wounded by an insult or personal slight, yet their generosity and good nature can make them very forgiving.

Positive Sides
Leos are both impulsive and emphatic. They are at home with absolutes, edicts, and flamboyant proclamations. They are assertive as well as clever. Despite occasional fragility, Lions are confident--in their own ideas, their methods, their talents, and their expertise. Leos at their glorious best are great hearted, passionate, generous creatures. As befits their regal natures, Leos are devoted to high ideals; they are honorable, conscientious, courageous, and daring. Traditionally, the Leo personality is famous for its magnificent charm.

Negative Sides
Leos can be demanding, domineering, insensitive and destructive. They risk drowning in insensitivity, egocentrism, and materialism, lacking both the desire and the capacity for spiritual development.

The Ruler
Ruled by Sun itself, they are natural leaders. Leos are sometimes accused of being arrogant or stubborn, but in fact it is their confidence and persistence that produce success. Even when things don't go as planned, Leo's inborn grace may save the situation.
