Leo ♌ The Lion

The Leo personality

Leo is ruled by the Sun, and you did not miss the memo. You walk into a room like there is a soundtrack, and somehow there usually is. Under the glitter is a huge heart: you are generous, protective and the first to hype up your friends. You need appreciation the way plants need light, and when you do not get it you wilt dramatically, and loudly. You are also far more sensitive than you let anyone see, which is why compliments matter so much.
