LEO MAN: SNAPSHOT
Brawny
Mesmeric
Indomitable
Faithful
You are ruled by the Sun, a masculine planet, which signifies authority, verve and intensity. You’re hugely charismatic and captivating, and love getting adulation. You are also a big-hearted individual who showers loved ones with encouragement and wealth, but because of your Lion-like character, you demand an equal measure of responsiveness. Socially, you enjoy an eclectic mix of temperaments and have a fondness for elegant environments. On the whole, you’re a secure individual who is in control of your emotions.
Leo-born individuals are well-proportioned and usually athletic in build. However, it would be wise to make physical exercise and diet a regular part of your daily regime. You exhibit a good measure of sex appeal, but you can be quite abashed about it. Being ruled by the Sun, you seek exhilaration in all your pursuits, including relationships. You can be unusually passionate about children, sports and entertaining exploits.
You are pure and childlike in your affection for others, but your dark side reveals itself in opinionated stances and arrogance. You’re also enormously compassionate and tender. As one of the most regal signs of the zodiac, you possess natural valour, confidence and an optimistic frame of mind, and you refuse to stoop. Come hell or high water, you hold your head high, which many perceive as pompousness rather than courage.
Your personality is governed by strong zodiac elements, which makes you very exacting, and you make demands of others who may not have an inkling of your thought processes. You have a knack for pushing people beyond their comfort zone and helping them realise their own potential. Of course, you are thinking about their best interests, but few will be receptive to such intensity.
You may exhibit a streak of impulsiveness, but you can blame this on your imaginative mind and keen desire to share your light-bulb moments with the world. Your self-confidence is high, especially when compared to other signs of the zodiac. This may spark silent resentment when you find that others are obstinately closed to your perceptive insights.
You should practise patience and tolerance, Leo, as your exacting and aggressive demands can backfire on you. As the saying goes, ‘you can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink’. Let it go; others may not be as thirsty as you.
There could be occasions when your staunch philosophical beliefs get in the way of forging healthy relationships with others. Such obstinacy can mean the end of relationship. Try to find a delicate balance between discernment and effervescence.
NURTURING LEO
In marriage, you express your love by nurturing your spouse and offspring. You’re generous with joy, encouragement, support and pleasure, which your loved ones benefit from. You also want to see your partner and family live without any strain, and you work relentlessly towards that end.
When it comes to children, you’re strict as well as compassionate. However, employ care when dealing with your offspring. Some would rather be led gently than prodded fiercely. Your sense of protection is never governed by ego; it is there to enable them to succeed in life through hard work and tenacity.
You’re the epitome of courage, conviction, optimism and selfconfidence, and you are a role model for those around you. Your personality is a mixed bag of enthusiasm, competitiveness and aggression, and you see nothing more clearly than the route to realising your goals. Though you’re perceived as rigid and obstinate, you are just persistent and uncompromising when it comes to executing your plans.
LEO WOMAN:
SNAPSHOT
Gracious
Even-handed
Truthful
Imaginative
Glitzy
Leo women are ambassadors of elegance, poise and friendliness, and they have enormously refined tastes. They clearly exhibit the prowess of the Lioness, their ruling totem. Like many felines, you prefer the solitary confines of your world. Although you can be a trailblazer in solitude, it would be a waste of your brilliance and protective instincts, which make you a multifaceted and fascinating woman.
You have the ability to forge a sensational connection with children because you are a child at heart. This youthfulness allows you to remain young even as you grow older. You thoroughly enjoy companionship and revel in the company of both men and women. Blessed with inner charm you are an expert when it comes to quirky rejoinders and witty repartee, and you indulge in conversations as long as they don’t bore you.
SEXY AND POWERFUL
Leo women exhibit a remarkable degree of sex appeal and draw men quite naturally. But men can be intimidated by your lioness-like authority and resilience. When it comes to choosing a partner, find someone who can match the inherent powers of your character.
Your candour can catch people off guard. It throws them into confusion and they will struggle to find a plausible comeback to your straightforward and, at times, blunt demands or responses. No other zodiac sign epitomises the adage ‘what you see is what you get’ better than you, Leo.
Just as the Sun is the focus of the solar system, you too aspire to be in control wherever you go, whether it’s the school canteen or the board of a big company. Regardless of the circumstances or scale, you refuse to be relegated to a lesser position. You are determined to achieve remarkable highs in life. This desire is not fame-driven. Instead, you are fuelled by your desire to contribute to the world at large.
When it comes to fashion, you love to buy clothes and accessories that reflect your flamboyant and striking personality. You like to experiment with different looks and stand out from the crowd. Your true joy comes from securing a bargain, and you unabashedly haggle to get a price that puts a smile on your face. You ride high on your self-esteem, and even when an invitation calls for casual attire, you show up impeccably clothed and groomed. It is not in your nature to don an unkempt look, even during sleep!
As an individual, you are gracious, hospitable and overflowing with warmth. You find your comfort zone wherever you go, and it’s usually elegant and slightly luxurious. Like a lioness, you love to be admired and you like to find the perfect setting that enhances the
