The Lion has always been a symbol of power for people. Bravery, courage and noble meaning is readily associated with the lion, his significance in prehistoric times is something we can only imagine, for example as the model and inspiration to the Egyptian sphinx. A lion sees himself as a leader and demands to be placed at the top, both socially and at work.

Leos often have a grand way about them, and are appreciated because of their generosity and warm-hearted nature. Pride and attitude though can sometimes result in a wasteful behavior. Pride can also make it difficult for him to change when he has made his decision or formed an opinion about something. When he is confronted with resistance or is attacked he does not back up one inch.
