With
proud Leo as your star sign, the Sun blazed
in a masculine sign on your birthday.
The Sun in astrology stands for our essential
nature, the true stamp of our character.
The fifth sign of the Zodiac, Leo is ruled
by the life-giving Sun, the lord of our
solar system. A fixed (strong and solid)
sign, Leo governs will and authority.
It is a fire sign, which means Leo people
are grand, confident and generous, although
you tend to be egocentric and can be somewhat
overbearing.
The Sun, the ruler of our inner nature,
is enthroned in Leo, the sign of its own
house, or rulership. This energy is thoroughly
regal, the lion being the king of beasts,
for proud Leo regards himself as the natural
centre of attention - and confidently
expects others to step back and pay homage
when his bushy mane is displayed in the
limelight...
Glamorous Leo enjoys a thoroughgoing
love of life and all its pleasures. As
the Sun bestows light and life without
favour, the benefactor of every living
thing on this earth, so you, genial host
and natural entertainer, get inordinate
pleasure from helping others enjoy life
as much as you do.
Enthusiasm, generosity and your sunny
disposition inspires the affection of
many friends and admirers, while turning
those with less popular personalities
green with envy. Though full of ambition
and enthusiasm, Leo has to admit to a
lazy streak and, given the opportunity,
will take the easy way out, especially
when a situation offers little fun or
glory. This is something lazy, luxurious
Leo needs to watch.
Determined Leo, a fixed sign, can be
rather stubborn and resistant to imposed
changes. In many ways this is a plus,
for it gives you the stamina to accomplish
things in life, due to your tenacity.
You can stick with projects when other
more easily distracted souls lose concentration
or interest. This stubbornness, which
you prefer to think of as consistency
and determination, is, however, dictated
more often than not by your ego.
It is easy for pleasure-loving Leo to
become addicted to rich food, and as the
cat gets older you find yourself putting
on weight. Your gregarious nature makes
it hard to enjoy or stick to boring, solitary
physical fitness routines, but you may
not mind dressing up in flashy gym outfits
and joining an exercise class. Dancing,
swimming, and tennis are your favourites,
though you are quite keen on sports of
all kinds. Playing to the grandstand when
starring on the field is an everpresent
temptation, but perhaps you ought to remember,
in team sports even the king of beasts
is still supposed to be part of a team.
Arts and crafts, theatre groups, philanthropic
societies and religious organizations
attract your interest and participation.
Leo rules the back and heart, so people
with Leo active in their charts are subject
to over-exertion, general problems with
stress in the back and ailments of the
heart. You have a strong constitution
and can usually overcome your problems,
many of which are of your own making,
due to overindulgence.
Best colours are gold,
royal purple, and orange. Leo rules metallic
gold, and your birthstone is the sardonyx.
An appropriate representative of Leo's
versatile, creative personality, the intriguing
sardonyx is a variety of agate that exists
in many colours and can be cut in many
ways. One of the special ways it is used
is in making cameos. Flowers for Leo include
the showy dahlia, yellow lily, red poppy,
marigold, sunflower, and heliotrope.
