What will May 17 bring you?

Throw off hindrances from the past, use this freed-up mental energy to begin new projects and develop a more creative approach. Don't be afraid to start afresh in personal relationships, revive friendships instead and rid yourself of long-standing encumbrances. This may cause some confusion at first but eventually pays off, your inner sense of calm helps.

Love

Try to avoid saying things you don't mean during any disagreements, instead react calmly and thoughtfully. When this seems difficult, you realize you can’t engineer or control the outcome of every situation you're confronted with. Try to be more understanding and view the argument from your lover's perspective.

Career

Recurring problems require attention and need your full concentration. Don't ignore mounting difficulties or avoid dealing with them straight away. Strive to appraise the situation objectively, in a business-like manner. Don't be afraid to break new ground. Everything soon looks different, far better than it appears.

Erotic

You feel like having a hot affair. Well, go ahead! You have enough opportunities for getting close to someone. Take the decision and set up the situation. Take care, though. You might feel flattered and get ahead of yourself in your erotic fantasies, but end up being left lonely and dissatisfied instead.

Leo personality traits

In addition to the daily horoscope which clarifies what is in store for you as a Leo, you can read here about specific characteristics of Leo. Being a Leo you are sensitive in life, an image which a Leo as an animal does not seem to radiate so much.

The animal is seen as the king of the animal kingdom. As a Leo, you also appear strong and proud to others. You like to give guidance in an open and clear way and rarely ask for help, because you think you can do everything yourself. You seek recognition and can feel hurt easily.

You protect the loved ones around you and like to be in the spotlight. At times, you can be quite lazy and this is in stark contrast to the leadership role you exude.

What is the Leo zodiac sign?

According to Wikipedia, the constellation Leo represents the Nemean lion from the Greek legend about Hercules. It was Hercules' first task to kill this lion. After Hercules accomplished this task, Zeus is said to have given the lion a place among the stars as a tribute to Hercules. Read more about the meaning of the Leo constellation on Wikipedia.

Leo in love

Love plays an important role in relationships that a Leo enters into. Romance and passion play a major role and as a Leo you like to have someone next to you to support you. Without a partner you are a little less powerful in life, because your partner makes sure that you feel strengthened in your daily routine.

The female Leo is elegant and likes to make a good impression, even if she is in a relationship. The male Leo, like a lion, radiates strength and self-confidence. This is experienced as very pleasant by the partner. As a Leo, you can enter into a relationship just fine with Gemini or Pisces, but also with a Sagittarius or Aries.

With Capricorn, it can clash, because both star signs want to take the lead in the relationship. An Aquarius is looking for equality in the relationship and this is also difficult for you as a Leo to deal with.
