"I Express" is the main drive for a Leo, the great lion. Expressing the self under various circumstances is, by and large, the life mission for this noble, dignified and outgoing Sun Sign.
An Overview of the Leo Personality and Character
It's all about pride and leadership for the Leo, the person born under this astrological sign needs respect in order to have a normal balanced outlook. A lion that goes unnoticed is not a happy cat. When a Leo feels unappreciated, it's equated with disrespect. There is a need to able to shine in front of others, whether in a large group or a small group.
As great fans of romance, Leos also have little trouble expressing what their heart feels. Displays of affection and flowery talk are second nature, even to the more shy types. A mixture of playfulness, showmanship and pride are the trademarks of a well developed lion.
Zodiac Sign Leo is Good at Leadership
Most Leos are also natural leaders or show strong leadership potential, feeling right at home as the boss is often the case for the Leo. Possessing great organizational skills and knowing how to tactfully direct people, this sign usually deserves to be in a position of authority.
Not everyone has the gumption to delegate authority and do it with an ease that gets people moving. That is part of the Leo gift – instinctively knowing how to think large, which is a plus when the big picture needs tending to. Someone has to be the natural-born boss of the Zodiac and the king of the jungle seems to be a good fit.
Being a fixed sign, Leo brings a fixed mindset or manner of doing things. A great stamina for big projects is often evident in this sign. Leo seems find his way through complex filing systems, then, in turn, he simplifies it for others. Organization, perseverance and vision are key for the Leo.
The Leo Loves Attention
A Leo who grew up in an inhibited household may overcompensate, ultimately becoming a showboat. Sometimes great entertainers are raised this way, and they end up in the spotlight as they break the chains of a suppressed childhood. In other cases, overbearing bosses, or drama queens and drama kings are the result. One way or another the energy of the sun needs to shine. With the Sun as the ruler of Leo, it will show itself as a full healthy stream of sunlight, or through a more awkward course – still somehow managing to shine it's way through crevices.
Learning to accept others' points of view more readily is something the lion needs to develop. Being more self-oriented, the Leo often finds it a challenge to become a better listener. Friends and lovers of the lion may also at times, be flabbergasted by the cat's need to order others about. Leo needs to know, that not all of the people in their circle want to be led. It's better to let go of the reigns with some folks.
Astrology Sign Leo is Outgoing
Leo, as a general rule, makes a better host than guest. As a host, there is a certain comfort with being in control of the spotlight because there is a better chance that they'll be seen, appreciated and remembered. Some of the most exciting parties are thrown by this flamboyant sign. Famous Leos include Kevin Spacey, Mick Jagger, Sandra Bullock, Whitney Houston.
