Hi all, does anyone other Leo feel this way?

It started when I started following some Leo astrology pages on Instagram and I was shocked by the Leo pages for a few reasons.

1. How egotistical, just plain vein and self centred the going theme was. Even the “positive” attributes of Leo still seemed pretty bad. Being a leader (aka being bossy) etc

2. How everyone seemed to agree and reflect what was being said!

3. The traits I recognised in myself.

This was a real eye opener for me because I always considered myself a considerate person, even my job reflects that. It may sound silly but it really got to me! And I don’t take pride in the star sign anymore, I see it as a flaw in character. I started recognising a few of these traits and I don’t like it, and now when I meet with other Leo’s, I recognise these traits in them. Just feeling down about it! Does everyone see me as an egotistical assprinkle*? How can I look out for these and not be this person with these negative traits? It sounds dramatic but, am I doomed into not being a truly ‘good’ person because of it? Thank you.

Every sign has bad traits. Don't let it affect you. You don't have to care about what others think. Friends and loved ones will accept you for you.

Random people with opinions who don't like the traits of a particular sign should just stay away from them.

Their bad opinions aren't your problem.

Compatibility is what matters.

Those who matter, don't mind!

Every sign has its "negative traits" as well as good.

Leo is big hearted, giving, loving, and sensitive.

I am one as well

I dont let it bug me because I know I am who I am at heart regardless

Whats the rest of your chart

Thank you 😊 think I needed to hear this. What do you mean the rest of chart?

i miss having lunch with my leo friend.

he'd endlessly talk about himself, often whine and he'd take forever to eat. it's interesting to realize that you kinda develop traits of each other when you grow up together.

now i'm just bored on dates whenever a guy just wolfs down his meal. i don't find it disgusting like most but i prefer how people actually savored their meal and how it can stretch on for hours. probably the only family activity i like unless my libra uncle or gemini aunt's in attendance.

Think of the zodiac signs as a collection of personalities traits. There is a spectrum of expression. On top of that positive and negative scaling.

The proper usage of astrology is the concept that you are not a "leo" sun, you just have dispositions to those behavioral traits. Use astrology for introspection not to define yourself.

Those people might share the same qualities you do but that doesn't mean they are you or you are them.

Your on the right track.

So what sign would you rather be, a robotic Gemini?

Look at it this way. At least leos don't get hated on.

At least geminis don't get hated on!

-sincerely,

The sign everyone hates

Are you referencing your sign gets hated on or Leo? Cus if its the former I don't know of any capricorns that gets hated on. Maybe cheated on. But not cheated on by me cus I have nothing but the utmost loyalty to cheat on this cap lady I'm with now.

I don't know maybe its just me people hate on. I honestly never know people showing any love to Geminis. Can't possibly think of a time when any gems gets loved on.

Oh ok I get it now. I had to study that last line for a long time to catch on.

Ok I'm out. I haven't had my caffeine yet and my head is kinda in the clouds right now.

Just because Leo and its traits are not compatible with SOME signs doesn’t mean they are incompatible with everyone. There are signs that love Leos vivacious and upbeat personality.

Friendship wise I have the most Leo friends. Love my Leo gfs. 🥰They are a riot!! So much fun to hang out with.



Did you get rid of the double Leo bloke? 🥴
