The sign Leo is ruled by the Sun. 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 experienced 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.
Your relationship to your father has direct relation to your degree of
self-confidence. Although you can be warm, gallant and charming, you have a strong need to
dominate in partnerships and have a tendency to be attention-grabbing
precisely because of insecurity in this area. You are romantic, and not averse to the occasional
affair to give your ego the shine it needs. Great challenges in your
life occur in connection with your sense of identity. In these periods of crisis you will tend to
radically change your image. Your exaggerated sensitivity to the kind of
impression you make on your loved one makes way, as you mature, for a stronger sense of
self-security based on inner convictions. It is at these times that
false pride and elitism bite the dust, and your natural nobility emerges.
