Leo
24. july to 23. august
Personality
Physically it is related to the heart and back. It is said to have a masculine nature, and is therefore more extrovert in its energy.
As a Fire sign, Leo is connected with the principle of identity, and as it is also classed as a fixed sign, planets placed here have a stabilising effect, conserving and building individual character. There is a strong creative manifestation and self-expression connected with the sign - planets placed in Leo act in a dramatic way and need to experience themselves reflected in their surroundings.
When planets are expressed negatively in this sign there will often be pride, narcissism and self-importance. When expressed positively there is a warmth and joy in being, and a playful, romantic nature. This sign is associated with children, charisma and entertainment.
Planets in Leo act with authority and power, exerting a compelling influence on others. Greater balance can be attained if the capacity to see oneself objectively is cultivated.
