Your fire is a summer fire. It is incandescent, absolute and burning. You do not accept or with great difficulty, mediocrity in feelings, half measures, mitigated relationships. In you, the passion must burn for you to find your full fulfillment. You have a great need to be loved, appreciated and surrounded. Deprived of this, you feel completely lost, abandoned and very lonely.

You have a lot of coquetry and you like jewelry. You have a great need to be surrounded and admired. Often your personal magnetism and charm help you with this, but when it is no longer the case, you suffer greatly. You always set yourself high goals. Some of your qualities favor success, but when you encounter difficult obstacles, you still don't know how to overcome them.

To be really good, you would have to succeed all the time. You have the capacity for this, but your flaws sometimes block you at the first difficulties. Then, you sink into silence and nothing you do is effective.

Your temperament pushes you in these critical situations to "save face" which does you more harm than good. You can't be perfectly lucid and face the facts. You cut yourself off from others and since you hate loneliness, you don't see the chances that life can offer you. In these situations, your ascendant plays an important role. It helps you out. The Lion that you are easily straightens the mane.

Your relationships with other signs:
With other Leos, it can be sparks. One of the two will then have to make concessions to the other and it will not always be easy. Your relationships can be of the spectacular opposition or deaf dialogue type.

On the other hand, you can surround yourself with signs such as Cancer and Aries who will often be ready to understand you or admire you. In your private life, Sagittarius can be a very good contact. However, beware of air signs, especially Gemini, because with them it can be all good for a period of time then, very quickly, the fire can break out and ruin everything.

This brief analysis, without pretension, can help you to better conduct your existence. Learning to know yourself better allows you to take full advantage of your strengths and minimize your weaknesses.

People who succeed in their existence are often people who have consciously or unconsciously taken full advantage of their assets, advantages and strengths, while knowing how to dominate at the level of their weaknesses.
