Leo (July 23 - August 22) - On the path of inner light Personality traits, love, career and spiritual practices
Posted in: Zodiac
I have always felt a special connection with the sign of Leo. Perhaps because it contains the fiery passion that we all long to experience - and because Leo teaches us to dare to be ourselves, without fear.
In this post, I will go through the characteristics of Leo in detail, their spiritual world, and show some spiritual practices that will help you connect more deeply with this powerful, yet heartfelt energy.
🔥 Leo personality traits - when the Sun shines within you
Leo is ruled by the Sun, which says a lot in itself. Such people are confident, proud, creative and full of vitality. But don't be fooled by the outer brilliance - deep down, Leos are sensitive and often yearn to be truly seen and acknowledged.
✨ Strengths:
Charismatic leader – a natural leader who inspires others.
Generous and loyal – gives everything when they love someone.
Creative – a true artist who can dream big.
Optimistic and life-affirming – able to see the light even in the worst situations.
🌑 Weaknesses:
Ego and excessive pride – has difficulty handling criticism.
Acknowledgement addiction – tends to become dependent on how others see them.
Dominance – can be too controlling, especially if they don’t feel safe.
💛 Leo in love – passionate, loyal and spectacular
When a Leo loves you, it’s hard to miss. For them, love is not just a relationship – it’s a way of life. They love with all their heart and soul. At the same time, they often put you to the test, as they need attention, recognition and the fact that their partner really sees them.
What does a Leo expect in love?
Respect and admiration. Love language: praise, gifts, surprises, passion. Deep emotional and physical connection. A partner to look up to – but one who stands by them, not behind them.
Dark side in a relationship: They can be prone to dominance.
They get offended easily if they don’t get enough attention. Sometimes they expect more than they can give.
💼 Leo at work – born to lead
For Leo, work is not just about making money, it’s about self-expression. They can only perform well if they feel meaning and passion in what they do. It’s important for them to be seen, appreciated, and if possible, to be in some kind of leadership role.
Ideal work environment:
It gives them free rein to their creativity. Their performance is recognized and rewarded. It gives them the opportunity to be independent and show off.
What are their strengths?
Communication, performance, stage. Art, design, fashion, marketing. Management, leadership, coaching.
