3 Reasons Why Leos Have Such Fiery Personality

If you know someone born under the Leo zodiac sign, you may already know that they have fiery personalities.

Do you ever wonder why?

Why are these folks so feisty? How come they’re always burning with passion in everything they do?

Friends, here are 3 reasons why Leos have such fiery personalities.

1. Leo is a fire sign.

First of all, Leo is a fire sign. You see, all zodiac signs belong to either one of the 4 elements: water, fire, earth and air.

And luck has it that your Leo friend fell into the passionate, lively bunch of the zodiac.

Fire signs like Leo possess an explosive kind of energy. It can comfort and bring warmth, joy and color to your life.

On the other hand, the uncontainable energy of fire signs like Leo can also hurt you. It’s not that fire signs are always out to cause chaos and destruction. It’s just that Leos can sometimes be too blunt, reckless, short-tempered and irritating. But that’s just how they are.

2. The Leo sign has a fixed modality.

Each zodiac sign has a certain modality. There are 3: cardinal (initiators), fixed (sustaining), and mutable (adaptable to change).

Leos have a fixed modality. What does that mean?

Remember how Leos are inherently passionate, exuberant and over-the-top? Well all of Leo’s dominant traits are reinforced with its fixed modality.

As a sign with a fixed modality, Leos are often stuck in their ways. They tend to disregard other people’s opinions and put greater value in what they think and how they feel. Because of this, they are almost always slow to change and are sometimes perceived as stubborn and selfish.

3. Leo is ruled by the sun.

The final underlying factor to Leo’s fiery personality is its ruling planet: the sun.

Yep, that’s right! Leos harness their energy from the center of the universe, giving them full energy and a very strong personality. Being ruled by the sun also makes them optimistic, generous and attractive.

But just like how all the planets revolve around the sun, Leos also think they have to be the center of attention. This could come off as being arrogant, egocentric, and overbearing sometimes.
