Leo Rashi
Simha is the fifth of the 12 rashis, a Fire sign of fixed quality ruled by the Sun. Simha natives are confident, generous and born to lead, proud and big-hearted.

Leo man and woman
Below is the general nature of Leo men and women, across temperament, career, love and health.
Leo Man
Confident, generous and fond of leading, he stands out in any gathering. Big-hearted, but he must master ego and the hunger for praise.
Leadership and management, politics, entertainment and films, government, and his own business suit him. He shines where name, honour and leadership are found.
Passionate, generous and devoted, he gives his partner regal love and pride. If he watches ego and the wish for praise, the bond stays warm and loyal.
Leo rules the heart and upper back. Watch the heart, blood pressure and the upper spine. Spirit runs high, so guard against too much stress and too little rest.
Leo Woman
Confident, radiant and generous, she lives by her dignity and identity. Big-hearted and loyal, though she watches ego and stubbornness.
She shines in leadership, entertainment, fashion, media, and event or management-related work, wherever honour and creativity meet.
Passionate, generous and wanting respect. A partner who honours her dignity and walks as an equal suits her best. Both should avoid clashes of ego.
The heart and upper back are sensitive. Watch the heart, blood pressure and back pain. Regular exercise and staying free of stress keep her health good.

Leo's confidence and leadership bloom in work with name, honour and command. Leadership and management, politics, entertainment and films, government, creative fields, and their own business suit them. They would rather lead than work under someone.
Money
