The fiery spirit of Leos is the result of the domination of their ruling planet,
Sun. As per astronomy; Sun is a star, not a planet. However, as far as astrology
is concerned, it is deemed to be a planet, that too the ruling planet of Leo sun
sign. It is believed to have been named after Apollo, the Roman Sun God. Sun
lends an energetic, lively and forceful personality to the individuals born
under the Leo zodiac. Their qualities are seldom repressed and their plans are,
more often than not, put into concrete action.
Sun-ruled people are inclined towards acquisition of knowledge and artistic
achievement. The planet infuses in them a great degree of optimism, which
encourages them to accept failures as only temporary setbacks in the road to
success. This quality is often visualized by others as symbolical of their
exceptionally good luck. Such individuals are full of self-respect, honesty and
loyalty. They have excellent communication skills and tend to have a very
attractive personality.
The negative traits associated with the people dominated by the ruling planet of
Sun include the tendency to overlook small matters and lay emphasis on
individual fame, rather than high achievement. This may lead to a demanding,
overbearing, egocentric, thoughtless and insensitive personality. They may also
become too proud, insensitive, arrogant and imperious. If such traits are
displayed for too long, they may totally overshadow the gifts owned by these
individuals. Sun governs the self, aim, spirit, will, power, strength and order.
Along with generosity, it imparts qualities like creativity, self-respect and
honor. The influence of the ruling planet is mainly on how a person will express
himself, how he will conduct himself and what direction will he take to
accomplish his goals. The items related to Sun are marigolds, daffodils,
