| The Lion (July 23 - August 22) |
| Yes, Leos roar! They love being the center of attention and often surround themselves with admirers. To remain in the proud kingdom of a Leo, their admirers have to think like he or she thinks, believe what he or she believes and hate and love who he or she hates and loves. To a Leo, this is loyalty. In return, Leo the king (queen) offers generosity, warmth, and compassion. Leos have an innate dramatic sense and life is definitely their stage. Their flamboyance and personal magnetism extend to every facet of their lives. They seek to succeed and make an impact in every situation. It is no surprise that the theater and allied arts fall under the rulership of Leo. Don't ever argue to change the opinions and beliefs of a Leo. As a fixed sign, they stand firm in their belief systems. They have found what works for them and don't understand why their beliefs may not work for someone else. In general, they are optimistic, honorable, loyal, and ambitious. Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis was the physical epitome of a Leo female with her compelling eyes, thick hair, and regal bearing. Leos generally benefit from low-fat diets because one of the weakest parts of their bodies is the heart. Exercise, even if on the light side, is needed to channel some of that abundant energy. |
