He falls in love readily, then finds it hard to sustain the emotion. For him, falling out of love is as simple as falling out of bed.Don't make the mistake of thinking Leo man is casual about love. He isn't; in fact, he sees love in practically mythical terms. To him, a love affair is never minor or mild or murky. It is high drama; it is a grand passion. No one else in the zodiac can more easily make you believe that you and he are the first, original, quintessential lovers in the world. The woman who wins his favor moves instantly to center stage. The spotlight is on her, she radiates in the bright circle of his admiration. It's a heady experience to have a Leo lover. Then suddenly the lights are turned off, the curtain falls, the play is over-and she doesn't know why. And he won't explain. Most likely, it's because Leo was in love with a mythical creature of his imagina­tion-a beautiful adoring princess completely ful­filled by him. When the real woman supersedes the myth, Leo gets on his white horse and rides off. Leo man likes a woman to cater to his every whim. Yet he would be surprised to hear himself described as demanding. He doesn't see himself that way at all. He thinks he is openhearted, trust­ing, asking nothing but what he is entitled to. If told that he sometimes asks too much of those close to him, he simply wouldn't understand how. After all, why should anyone refuse him? In pleas­ing him, they please themselves. A true democrat, he believes everyone is equal-equally ready to serve him.If this sounds like an overweeningly self-assured type riding for a fall, look a bit closer. Underneath Leo's surface majesty is a sensitive, vulnerable man who needs reassurance-and praise. Praise is as necessary to him as food and drink.In sexual relationships he won't voyage beyond the farthest limits of the known to find a new continent of sensuality. He's a cautious navigator who sticks close to charted waters. On the other hand, a woman will never end up with a sunken wreck.. If you rub his mane the right way, Leo the Lion is a marvelously affectionate, cheerful companion. He is kind, strong, generous, something of a spend­thrift but usually successful in business. A woman who gets this flamboyant, magnetic overachiever with the sunny disposition has only one problem. Somehow she has to teach him that the sole object of his adulation does not have to be himself.

While dealing with a Leo man, be sure of one thing - you will never find him alone. He will always be amongst a group of people and, more often than not, he will be the center of attention. He is not the one to waste his charm in empty air; there will always be an audience admiring him. This is the key to a lion's heart - attention, appreciation and flattery. If you want to get close to a Leo male, become his audience. In case you have fallen in for the quiet, gentle lion, don't be fooled. Behind all this calm is the fire of an August-born.

Try dominating him even a slightest bit and you will see the fireworks. His personality traits include generous doses of chivalry, courtesy, gallantry, care and warmth. You will not require too many preparations to make a Leo guy fall in love with you. Candlelight dinner, moonlit night, sensual music and lots of romance - that's it! He will instantly fall in love with you. Infact, romance is something without which no Leo can survive for too long. He needs the constant love and attention given by a lover.

Leo men will be extremely generous while courting. You will be showered with roses, given gifts every now and then, taken to the best restaurants and be loaded with love letters, sprayed with sensual perfume. You will think that you have fallen in love with the most amiable person in the world. Now, comes the real part! Once you have entered his den, you will have to be his forever. A Leo man is extremely possessive of his loved ones and as far as you are concerned, you belong to him and him only.

He can get very jealous, very easily! Even a playful look at another man will send his jealousy meter to the topmost point. When pushed too far, he will send that man thrashing to the floor, if not the hospital. If you said you would be gone for two hours, be back in one hour and fifty-nine minutes. When a Leo male becomes unreasonable, it is advisable to pamper him and get your work done. His vanity may at times come in the way, but then, you will have to subdue it with love, care and your own stability.

Most of the Leo men do not want their wives to work after marriage. It is because they want to be the primary interest in the life of their partners and cannot stand anything else taking that place, even if it her job/work. A Leo guy will always pamper you with the best things in life and he will expect you to turn out looking stunning beautiful, when you go outside. Now, after you have managed to swallow the initial hiccups, you can be sure that you have the most devoted husband in the whole world.

Just remember to respect him and he will be generous in all respects - love, money, care and everything you want. A Leo man is not one of those who forget to say 'I Love You' till the next anniversary. You will be showered with attention and compliments every now and then. He will also remain faithful to you, though he may look at the pretty faces every now and then. However, don't take that too seriously and leave him. He will be very hurt and may go to the extreme of faking a heart attack to get you back.

Your part of the responsibility is to make sure that the romance never goes out of the relationship, even after the kids have come. Don't ever sideline your Leo man, not even for the kids. Then, he will remain contended and will play the perfect protective father to the children. He may not be very good with finances and this is where you will be required to provide some stability. There is a gambler streak in almost every Leo male and he will have to learn to keep it under limits. He is very good at repairing things around the house and this part of his characteristics profile may come quite handy to you.

He has a very bad temper and it will be displayed when you show him disrespect or indifference. Then, he can turn hotter than a burning furnace. Apart from that, he has a very cool demeanor. Leo men make wonderful, warm and loving fathers. In this area also, they demand respect and it is again your duty to ensure that the kids do not forget their manners. Always remember that a Leo guy secretly fears being ridiculed and his pride is just a veil for his fears. So, make sure to keep him nourished with love, care and respect. You will be rewarded with a loving husband, who will never let you be lonely again!

The gambling instinct is inherent in all Leo natives and this will also apply to their attitude regarding affairs of the heart. These are individuals who tend to take risks and, sometimes, they will make mistakes.
Indeed, many Leo subjects marry more than once. Being a Sign governed by the Element of Fire and ruled by the brazen Sun, the glorious optimism and warmth of Leo attracts similar type partners. When young, this Sign has no time or patience for the more timid sweetheart and those ruled by Leo will spend a great deal of time juggling with romantic prospects. Leo wants a partner of whom he or she can be proud. Thus, these natives are prone to fall in love with someone they admire. No sacrifice in the name of love is too great for Leo individuals but, once the loving has stopped, then any partner will need to beware since this Sign can be totally unforgiving once crossed. This may sound rather terrible but, in truth, it is not. Leo subjects are proud and sunny souls who radiate warmth and happiness, but they are often not sufficiently subtle to suspect the presence of unhappiness in those who are close to them. In short, they frequently fail to realize that all is not well in a relationship.

Leo natives are warm and supportive souls whose affections will continue to grow stronger the more they feel their partners care about them. Dramatically romantic, these natives are unafraid of romantic displays. However, since it is inherent in the Leo nature to judge self worth on what surrounds them, these subjects may be somewhat cricital of a partner's qualities, talents or appearance. While the personal values of Leo individuals will provide great self-confidence, these natives are continually disappointed in the actions and motives of others. Thus, they are somewhat destined to be disappointed in love at least once during a lifetime. Therefore, in matters of the heart, Leo subjects should be careful to exercise the greatest care and prudence in the selection of a life partner since any mistake in this area could mean the unhappiness of a lifetime. Any marriage while this native is still young...or one taken in a hasty manner...is inadvisable. Indeed, any form of long-term relationship should not be entered into by the Leo individual until he or she is well-settled in life and then only with a partner who is on an equal plane...both socially and intellectually. Nonetheless, that having been said, a Leo native will always come up fighting.

In brief summary, any relationship with the daring yet devoted Leo native will rarely prove to be dull. There is a need here for the Leo partner to be be lavished with attention, but he or she will reward any mate with riches in return. A slow and smouldering union which leads to mutual bliss is probably most desired by Leo individuals and they require a partner who can keep up with them and match their wits. That being absent, the risk of boredom and flight is great, since Leo has very high expectations. A partner who can understand and indluge the need of Leo to be the center of attention will be the one to stay the course and the ideal soul mate must understand the pleasure principle, being prepared to work hard to keep this Leo subject satisfied. In short, a Leo partner is rather high maintenance. He or she craves attention, nurturing and pampering. A mate has to not only be personally strong in himself or herself to enhance the partnership, but must also be willing to occasionally stand in Leo's shadow. Leo individuals will protect those they love to the very death and will be both generous and expressive in a long term union...provided that union is constantly stoked and fed. At their best, Leo partners are protective, adoring, playful, inventive, generous, supportive, sensual, warm and joyful. At worse, they are possessive, jealous, controlling, cold, cruel, selfishn, egotistical and self-serving.

The typical Leo trait i.e. of looking for attention is visible in Leo man as well. He wants to be the center of attraction and get noticed by people all the time. Leo man is a go-getter by nature. He is always very optimistic, independent and totally confident about his life. He is generous with affection as well as money Leo males have an aura of charisma surrounding them and always appear assured and assertive about their thoughts. They adore doing things in style and want their life to be full of excitement.

Leo men are dominating. They love to be in bossy and commanding positions. They might also have traits of playboy, especially if wealthy. A Leo male takes nothing seriously and hence, can be irritating at times. He is extremely possessive, to the extent that he may feel offended even if his wife talks to another male. A Leo man can be a hypocrite and also bully others. If left on his own, he can turn into a true tyrant or dictator. He loves to show off and wants to have permanence in life, the latter turning into stubbornness at times.

There is an urgent need to get noticed in Leo males. The worst thing you can do to them is to ignore or overlook them. In such a case, they can become very insecure. Leo men love flattery and pampering them is the best way to get anything done. Leo and independence are synonymous to each other. They also love taking responsibilities and would execute the task with perfection. A Leo male is fond of power and loves to have superior positions in life. He will also contribute in works of charity and take pleasure in working for advancement and uplift of humanity.

The Leo type is the most dominant, spontaneously creative and extrovert of all the zodiacal characters. In grandeur of manner, splendor of bearing and magnanimity of personality, they are the monarch's among humans as the lion is king of beasts. They are ambitious, courageous, dominant, strong willed, positive, independent, self-confident there is no such a word as doubt in their vocabularies, and they are self-controlled. Born leaders, either in support of, or in revolt against, the status quo. They are at their most effective when in a position of command, their personal magnetism and innate courtesy of mind bringing out the best of loyalty from subordinates. They are uncomplicated, knowing exactly what they want and using all their energies, creativeness and resolution to get it, as well as being certain that they will get whatever they are after. Their followers know where they are with Leonians. Leonians think and act bigger than others would normally dare; the ambitiousness of their schemes and idealism sometimes daunt their followers, their practical hardheadedness and ability to go straight to the heart of any problem reassures those who depend on them. If Leonians meet with setbacks they thrive on the adversity.

On the whole they are powers for good, for they are strongly idealistic, humane, and beneficent. They have powerful intelligence and are of a broad philosophical, sometimes religious, turn of mind. Those who are devout may become very obstinate in upholding traditional beliefs and will cling tenaciously, but with complete sincerity, to practices and doctrines which liberal thinkers regard as absurdly out-of-date. These will be found as the 'lions' of industries, and in the forefront of the cutting edge of technologies.

Their faults can be as large in scale as their virtues, and an excessively negative Leonian can be one of the most unpleasant human beings imaginable, displaying extreme arrogance, autocratic pride, haughtiness, and excessive hastiness of temper. If jealously suspicious of rivals, they will not hesitate to use cunning, lies and trickery to discredit them. Self-centeredness, greed for flattery, boastfulness, and bombast, pomposity, snobbish superiority, and overbearing, and intolerant disdain of underlings; to whom they will nevertheless delegate the carrying out of minor details in their grandiose schemes, and from whom they are not above borrowing immoderately if an occasion necessitates it. Any of these can be characteristic of Leo.
Add to them a passion for luxury, a lust for power, unlimited sexual lust, and emotional indulgence, and a character emerges that no one would want to know either in public life or private. But their pride may go before a fall, as uncontrolled impetuosity is likely to bring them low. Fortunately it is rare that a Leo is so undisciplined as to give way thoroughly to this list of vices, and their tendencies to them are usually balanced by an innate wisdom. Those who are afflicted with them also have the intelligence it takes to consciously and actively overcome them.

In professional life they do well at any vocation at which there is room at the top. As politicians they are content with nothing less than a powerful position in government. In business they may be the chairman of their company's board, or at least directors or managers. They are excellent organizers and overseers, often laying the groundwork for new projects. If from the artisan ranks of society they will aspire to become the boss, partly because they are ambitious by nature, partly because they dislike manual labor, preferring to take charge of others doing it. If artistic, Leos can become stars of stage or screen (their bent is serious rather than light drama), maestros as musicians where they will gravitate toward the grand instruments or activities, such as the organ or conducting of orchestras and as painters; anything grand in conception and scale appeals to them.

In his or her relations with others the Leo type is open, sincere, genuine and trusting. Outgoing, spontaneously warm hearted and plain spoken, though never lacking in kindliness, Leos are more disillusioned than the average if let down by those they trust. They are not good judges of character and are inclined to favoritism and an exaggerated faith in their followers which too often ends in disappointment. They have a strong sex drive and are so attracted to the opposite sex that they find it hard to be constant; they can be so intensely sexual as to become dissolute. They may have numerous love affairs for their love of pleasure and beauty is liable to drive them from one attractive partner to another. They are very much inclined to deceive. Their marriages may fail for the same reason, yet they are sincere and generous to their lovers while love lasts, and will remain attached to their homes so long as it is run for their benefit. They demand service but are incapable of giving it.

PROBLEMS THAT MAY ARISE FOR YOU, AND THEIR SOLUTIONS

As with all sun signs, we all have unique traits to our personalities. When these traits are suppressed, or unrealized, problems will arise. However, with astrology we can examine the problem and assess the proper solution based on the sun sign characteristics. As a Leo you may see things below that really strike home. Try the solution, you most likely will be amazed at the results. If you find yourself on the receiving end of the negatives below, it is because you are failing to express the positive.

Problem: Getting all upset and angry with others when things do not go the way you fully expected them too. This kind of reaction to a problem is what causes a lot of marital discord and unhappiness.

Solution: You should never base all of your expectations on what you should get, but rather base them on what you can give to, or do, for those who are in your sphere of influence. You will find you have a more peaceful and happy home if you do this.

Problem: You are sometimes your own worst enemy, especially so when you are striving for attention in such obvious ways that you turn off the very people you sought to impress.

Solution: The first place to start is to stop trying to gain attention; give people the chance to notice the real you. Decide what it is that impresses you and you will then know what to do to impress others.

Problem: Egotism, to the extent that you may be the Leo who thinks no one is quite as good at things as you are and the people around you are made to feel small through your habit of comparison.

Solution: What the higher minded Leo has is a sense of self worth and of greatness, this is corrupted when you let the ego get out of hand so you should learn to walk tall by looking up to those that are 'taller' than you are.
