Leo Nature | Rashi Characteristics, Personality, Description, Nature, Traits | Indian Astrology

Your sign Leo is the most masculine sign of the Zodiac, fittingly symbolised by the Lion. You radiate power and majesty. You are born leaders, and like to be associated with people of great social standing. However, you are warm spirited, eager to leap into action and are driven by the desire to be loved and appreciated. You are full to the brim with latent strength, which you can summon up at the mere sight of your prey. You are also very ambitious, and strive to reach the very top in your chosen field. Being party people, you love being the centre of attention. You can be very touchy, and don’t take lightly to criticism. Ironically, you yourself can be arrogant at times and hurt other people’s feelings. However, at the core, you are soft, and go to great lengths to help others out of their predicaments. In relationships, though you are unlikely to compromise on your independence, you will be a caring partner. You greatly appreciate beauty and are naturally attracted to beautiful people.

Leo Key Planet: Sun
Quite fittingly, your key planet is the Sun, who lords over our solar system. The centre around which other heavenly bodies revolve. It is the Sun which spreads light throughout the planetary system, and the prime source of all energy. Astrologically, the Sun represents our will. It’s like the fuel that fires each of our individual furnaces and gives us cause to live. The Sun being your key planet suggests that you are the nourisher of all life in the world, but, equally, you have the power to annihilate all creation.

Fifth House: Children
The Fifth House is directly related to children. So when you spot any child-like feelings and emotions in your nature, you can safely say it is the influence of the Fifth House. Even when you are older, it influences your nature and is manifested best when you fool around with children. In fact, all self-expression and creativity stems from this sector. Besides, this is the House of Romantic Love. Truly, the Fifth House could be called the House of Enjoyment. 

Leo Element: Fire
Your basic element is Fire, and you are known for your energy and warmth. The warmth will not deplete over time. Your energy can be contagious and it engulfs others too. However, just like Fire doesn’t plan its next move, you too can be unpredictable in your actions. You possess and exert strong leadership qualities and hence, often are natural contenders for leaderships. You are intense just like Fire, and never feel satiated. 

Leo Strength:
Your biggest strength is your confidence, and its power is such that in your presence, others feel confident too. Your other positive qualities are determination, empathy, loyalty, and you can be a great source of motivation.

Leo Possible Weakness:
There are certain negative traits that mark your character. Your love for admiration often lands you in the midst of sycophants who can harm you. You don’t take kindly to criticism.
