Leo Personality Traits

Leo (July 23 - August 22)

Leos work at their maximum vibration when they give off heat. < br />

After establishing our home foundations, the sun transforms into Leo, the second fire sign of the zodiac. While Aries`s role is to strike to trigger action, Leo`s role is fire to resist the flame.

And for Leo to keep the, Leo needs an audience .

My mentor and muse refers to the Leo flame as a bonfire. Ultimately, Leos want to create warmth, build communities, and set the stage for fabulous entertainment. Leo energy is creative, explosive and theatrical, and for these heavenly lions to shine, they must perform. The highest vibration of Leo is achieved when this sun sign can inspire people through artistic endeavors. Sure, there might be some drama, but hey, this is showbiz.

1. A magnetic personality

Leo is blessed with charisma, people seem to just be drawn to them. This not only gives them an effortless ability to make friends, but it makes it easy for them to make fans. Leo has the aura of a natural performer and many of them are able to make that into a career (see: A-list lions like Madonna, Jennifer Lopez, Demi Lovato). And there`s a very specific source for their star power.

2. A desire to share the wealth

Since they`re so sociable, Leos tend to have pretty expansive friend groups—and those friends often consider Leo`s nurturing spirit and generosity to be among their most admirable traits."This is a zodiac sign that would give you the shirt off their back, and buy a round of drinks for everyone at your local dive bar," says astrologer Leona Moon. "Leos express their love and gratitude with grand gestures and dramatic displays of affection." And this extends to their sense of romanticism, too. "Leo`s are very heart-centered and show this through their generosity—which also makes them excellent lovers," says Crysler.

3. An innate creativty

We usually mark water signs as the zodiac wheel`s artists, but not so fast. Leo has excellent vision when it comes to making an art project or performance deeply memorable and captivating...and they know how to execute it with a flourish. "A Leo`s inner world is bursting full of creativity—in part, their self-confidence encourages Leos to bravely try new things and artistic pursuits," says Moon. "Sure, Leos are the natural actors of the zodiac with their flare for dramatics, but their self-expression and creativity can be channeled in many ways."
