Leo - The Lion (July 23--August 22)
Yourself.
You are most concerned with expressing yourself and gaining approval
and admiration, a key phrase for you is - I will - since you are
determined to show your power to the world. You want to shine forth
and be in the spotlight even as you treat others in a generous way.
You are likely to find fortune finds you out and offers you a chance
to be at the centre even when you feel trapped or in obscurity. You
have a strong urge to create, both children and thoughts and projects
so that you give of yourself to bring this about. In love you are
ruled by the heart and follow your desires, there is a strong
attraction to the opposite sex. With money you seek it as a means to
achieve your goals and for you the means justifies the end as long as
it meets your own approval though not necessarily that of society.
You can be recklessly brave and are liable to be over frank or
outspoken which will lose you friends and bring about disagreements
where you will not give ground, you only concede where you will not
lose face. Your seek a noble role and power which makes you glow and
you will do whatever is required to show you are worthy of holding
responsibility. You express pride in the way you move, act, dress and
think but if you do not achieve the authority you seek you can become
lazy, sulky and unpredictable.
Friends and lovers.
You have the ability to enjoy friends and lovers for a lifetime, a
handshake means what it says to you, and a romance can last just as
long once you are committed, for once you fall for someone there are
no half measures, you give all and you expect all, you take love
seriously and your natural dignity prevents you indulging in mere
flirtation, there is your need for affection but you are capable of
giving just as much back in return. Though you know many people and
love to mix there is still a part of you which stands aloof and keeps
you standing out from the crowd, you get along with them but you tend
to follow the formalities when it comes to friendship. In love no
such reticence occurs, you are loyal, trustworthy and capable of
producing an intense relationship where there is a subtle glow at
work.
Sex drive.
You love with a fierce devotion, setting your love on a pedastal from
which they are likely to fall when they fail to measure up to the
role you have allocated for them. You like to call the shots in bed,
or wherever you decide the sex should take place, part of your wish
to appear lordly and commanding, but you give both protection and
generous amounts of yourself in love, you want to be admired and
respected. You are by far the most romantic and passionate of signs
when you have discovered someone you consider worthy of your loyalty.
In early life you may be less fortunate in love through impetuous
affairs but when you find the right person you can make them feel
they are really special while having sex through the royal attention
you lavish on them.
