Are Leos Revengeful in Situations of Betrayal

Leos value loyalty and pride, and they may seek revenge if betrayed, especially if their trust is broken. However, their response depends on personal circumstances and emotional strength. Some Leos may forgive and move on, while others might seek justice or retribution to protect their dignity.

Leo rules the heart so are leos revengeful ?

Suppose if you were friends with someone, with whom you shared your personal , were always there to help and support them. If the friend betrays you due to some reason (suppose breaking a promise) and the friend back stabs you, hurts you in some way, slanders your name to everyone (making you look bad even though it was never your fault), and tries to get revenge on you.

Would you forgive and let it go ? Break off the friendship forever ? Or get revengeful because after all, you trusted this person. What about your pride ? How would you handle such situation ?

I agree, if a friend completely betrayed me... they're no longer a friend. It's not a matter of pride or ego, it's a matter of trust and loyalty. I both value and offer loyalty above most everything else, and once broken there's no fixing it for me.

I would walk away from that person, completely cut them out of my life and never look back. I wouldn't accept any apologies or attempts at reconciliation. I tend to stick it out to the bitter end so when it's over for me, it really is over.

Revenge as a norm (or on a usual short-list of fitting responses) doesn't quite mesh with being Sun-ruled...

... when righteous indignation will do just fine.

LMAO! This is perfect.

Even with the strong Scorpio moon and Scorpio Pluto I find it hard to actually go out of my way to get revenge.

Like it was mentioned I simply disown someone who betrayed me. I'm extreamly giving, and normally I'd even forgive an enemy if the timing was right.

The only real way to destroy your enemies is make them your friend.

Honestly, If that person did something that horrible I would just disown them all together. I am a good person and the people that know me will know that person is full of it. No need for revenge unless that person hurts someone I love. Then I would walk over hot coals just to lay the smack down.

This is what I wish I did. Betrayal is my nuclear launch button. I try to be a good person. I do. Often I give in to my favorite deadly sin. Wrath. (sometimes Pride) After being wronged, truly wronged, specifically after trying to do right, I have laid in wait for the perfect opportunity to rain down hell. Ive waited months to enact my revenge. Its something I struggle with personally. Having gone done that road, yes it can be satisfying. But only temporarily. Be careful in what you let yourself divulge.

This is also often a result..

^^This^^. We can forgive but we will never forget. Things will never go back to before once damage is done.

If someone broke my MacBook id scream at them and go into a rage for like 5mins then forgive them. If someone betrayed me I'd break it off. Very quickly and run away not looking back. Us Leo's hate being upset and negative so we try to get it over and done with. The only time I'd prolong something is if they hurt my family or friends and Id totally crush them and make them suffer. Maybe it's my Scorpio rising that does this 😉. I'm leo moon as well as sun, Venus, Mars and a long list to follow.
