Your Leo Ascendant

Your Leo Ascendant indicates that you're an individual who is likely to have a strong physique and lots of physical stamina. You are very stubborn and find it extremely difficult to break undesirable habits and behavior patterns. However, your tenacity and stamina can also be wonderful assets. When you get involved in something, you hang on long after everyone else runs out of steam, and you inspire others with your devotion to ideals and principles.

Leo indicates energy and enthusiasm. Once motivated, you seldom hesitate to act. In spite of your energy and enthusiasm however, you can also be inclined to physical laziness. Your natural enthusiasm is responsible for overabundance and a tendency to overestimate everything. When buying various personal items, for example, you often acquire far more than you need. Though often rash and hasty, your passions are sincere.

Leo is ruled by the sun, ruler of willpower and egotistical drives. It indicates the conscious or subconscious need to dominate, especially in Leo Ascendants with more aggressive personalities. You want to have the last word in everything, and may come to believe your opinion is the only one worth considering. The negative potential for Leo Ascendant individuals is evidenced in those whose ego-driven personalities turn them into manipulative, power-oriented demagogues. Though most Leo Ascendant individuals are apt to be outgoing, you are not necessarily aggressive or loudly gregarious. Your personality will be greatly influenced by the nature and strength of your willpower and ego involvement. If your willpower and ego are not strong, then neither is your personality apt to be assertive. No matter what the rest of the world may think of you, it is meaningless compared to what you think of yourself. Intense self-absorption makes it hard to accept guidance from others, and you may feel taking or asking for advice from others is a sign of weakness. You enjoy associating with others who make you appear at your best. You have great generosity, and your warm, friendly approach wins many friends, as well as inspires the envy of others with less popular personalities. Life will rarely be a routine existence.

You are apt to be very creative with special talent or ability in art, music, or the entertainment and communication industries. Overwork, anxiety, heart problems, lower back pains, and ailments connected with overindulgence are your most likely physical complaints.
