Leo Traits & Personality...

Picture
Self-conscious and self-aware, Leos care deeply about how people see them, so they over-analyze themselves trying to make sure they are at the very least, likable and accepted and at the most, attractive and popular. This introspection causes some people to see the Leo as self-absorbed. That's all right. They just don't understand what's going on in the Leo's mind. The fact is, Leos just care about how they are seen through other people's eyes, and they want people to like them.  
 
Leo will try to win people over by putting a lot of effort into their looks or by directing their effort into a skill, talent or education, and then of course, there are the Leos who do both. 
Regardless of how they choose to shine in this world, there are two types of Leos, the introverts and the extroverts. The more introverted Leos will shine. They will have some talent whether it's creative or intellectual. They won't be the dramatically dressed, life of the party Leos, but they will have their own arena where they show their talent. It could be anything from an advanced college degree, to painting or cooking. The extroverts are the ones who dress to catch attention, talk loudly, dish out compliments and flirt. Though no Leo will ever out-flirt a Libra, they will come close. While Libras flirt to be attractive and play the game of luring you for sport, Leos flirt to satisfy their egos. Leos also enjoy sex, which is often enjoyed as a result of the flirting, because it is the ultimate in being accepted and liked by another person.
After all, doesn't everyone want to be liked? To Leo, this truly universal goal just seems so obvious. Well, maybe Leo is just more honest about it. Honesty is highly valued by Leo. It is very difficult for them to lie. This isn't to say they are above it, but it causes extreme discomfort for them, and truly goes against their grain.  Unfortunately it can also cause them problems. They are sometimes too honest about things. When this honesty is directed at you, it can hurt.  But, on the other hand, they are also the sign which is most honest about themselves. Because they are so self-aware, they will be the first to acknowledge their faults. Besides, it would be uncool to deny a fault that is obvious to everyone and run away from the truth like a baby. Leos need to be cool. It's part of being liked. 
Although some of the more confident, extroverted Leos can be a little overwhelming with their big hair, loud voices and sometimes dramatic fashion sense, they are genuinely nice people. To achieve their primary goal of being liked, they try hard to be nice and make other people happy. Their honest nature is refreshing and they want to have fun. ​​They are generally lighthearted and don't take things too seriously. Leo is happy when everyone is getting along and enjoying life. This is especially true with the men, while the women can be somewhat more serious.
Like lions, the females are responsible for the killing of food and caring for the young. They have to be more serious because they have important things to accomplish. Leo women do have that edge to them. The fun has to stop if it gets in the way of responsibilities. They are strong-willed and in-charge. They accomplish their goals with persistence and perseverance, and although the men are also strong-willed and in-charge, they will push the limits when it comes to fun. Fun is very high on their list of priorities. Often, Leo men will take a little more time than most to move out of their parents' home or marry a woman who may be a little older, who is extremely competent or is just willing to support them in some way. This way, they are free to grow their hair, dabble in art, see shows or do whatever else they find interesting. Somehow they are able to pull this off.
 
But, should we expect less from the sign ruled by the sun?  Yes, it's true. All of the other planets do revolve around the sun, and Leos do seem to have a way about them that reflects this dynamic. But come on, it's the sun!  So don’t judge them too harshly on their, let's call it self-awareness, and enjoy their gregarious, fun loving and honest ways. They offer the power and warmth of the sun. They will stick up for you, compliment you, love you, take care of you and show you a great time.

The Difference Between Leo Sun & Moon...
Picture
Prod a Leo sun. Antagonize them, and challenge them. Unless you are an obvious threat, it takes some effort to get a reaction from them. First, they will assume you're being playful or just kidding. Press them harder. You'll see a seriousness develop in their eyes. Press harder yet, and finally, they roar. Try this with a Leo moon, and notice the difference in reaction time. The Leo moon doesn't mess around. They react quickly. The defensive, self-protective nature of the moon in the sign symbolized by...(Click to read article)
