Ruling Planet: The Sun
Your symbol, the lion, the king of
beasts, has long been equated with your ruler, the Sun, king of the planets.
Only the sun, the vital life force and the superstar of our solar system, emits
light. You're naturally inclined to be in the spotlight on stage -- center
stage. You project the confidence, nobility, strength, virility, and courage of
the lion. Like the kings and queens of old, you feel it's your birthright to be
in the center of affairs, with all others dependent upon you for leadership,
guidance and solar energy. You love the enhanced sense of self that wielding
power gives you, and you'll create ways to gain the position of leadership you
feel you deserve.
Your keyword is RECOGNITION. You're happiest when others acknowledge your
abilities, power, magnificence and authority. If they do, you'll be able to
establish your place among the elite of the hierarchy. In your world, you make
the rules, expecting everyone else to follow them if they wish to play your
game. You're capable of expressing yourself in all your resplendent glory and
make an even wider impression, which is your motivation. Taken to an extreme,
your natural tendencies could lead to excessive egotism and the will to dominate
and conquer without any concern for the welfare of your "subjects." The warning
signs to watch for are stubbornness, dogmatism and biting sarcasm.
Possible Negative Aspects of the Sign Leo: Getting all upset and angry with others when things do not go the
way you fully expected them too, your own worst enemy,
egotism, losses in income from unwisely speculating.
