Sorry, I didn't want the bitter state I was in when I posted to cause a leo-bashing fest! I'm almost completely over the DRAMA(just a few intermittent scorp moon emotional "flashbacks" now and then). Leos are wonderful, loving, caring, and can make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. The pure, burning, powerful love of fixed fire can move mountains! My mom is a leo and she's a devoted, kind and giving person. But it does seem like leos are bad breaker uppers. My mom left my dad after 17 years of marriage by falling in love with another man...plus my dad is a scorp..ouch! I think leos just sometimes forget that the rest of the world exists, they get so focused on what they are doing they lose sight of everything else. IP: Logged |

One last comment on this subject...Leos seem easy going and happy all the time, but don't be fooled into interpreting that as meaning they lack self respect. They may take the barbs and slings and arrows without batting an eyelash (water off a duck's back), but believe me... they're taking it personally. They're simply not going to give you the satisfaction of knowing that though. You've misunderstood their intentions and their character and therefore, you're foolish. You're no longer on the A list. But you won't know it. They won't change the way they act toward you immediately. Don't want you to know that you've affected them in anyway. You'd think butter wouldn't melt in their mouths, they're so cool. But you've been banished. It's a slow, gradual parting of ways, without a mention at all of the insult you hurled or the attack on their character and why it bothered them. So, if you've really wounded their pride, you probably won't know it, and therefore, you won't get the chance to redeem yourself eithor. But you'll know you've been banished in time.IP: Logged |

Leo's make powerful enemies...I try not to make ANY enemies... but yet there's always someone out there trying to manipulate my friends or me. I set them straight once, but if their underhandedness continues... they become enemies of the state... Although I've tried to rekindle a friendship amongst two of thyne enemies, being nothing but cool to them. Turns out they kiss my arse to my face yet still telk da shiz behind my back, oh wells... Over it!  IP: Logged |

Personally, I wouldn't do something hurtfull like flaunt my interest in a new lover in front of an ex, unless I was deliberately aiming to HURT! And the only reason I would do that, is if they inflicted considerable hurt on me first.Even still, that's not my style. On the other hand, if the relationship was clearly over, and I was ready to move on, and I was somewhere where there was a person who I was getting into in a big bad way, and an ex happened to be there as well, perhaps an ex with whom there was some "bad blood", or hard feelings with , I wouldn't hold back paying attention to the new person to spare the feelings of the ex. Because at that point, I would assume that they had no feelings of affection left for me anyway, so why would they care? Would they be worried about MY feelings if the roles were reversed? Doubtful.

I think i let the strength of my attraction blind me to a fact i've always known, i just don't get along with leos. I'm on dec 21st, cap cusp, and i have cap rising and mercury in cap. When i meet a leo i usually think, "wow this person is such a huge phony they make my skin crawl." My leo started saying "i love you," on our first date, which is complete ******** , heh. Kudos to an leo/cap couples who have actually made it work. My mom leo married a cap and i have no idea how but they are happily married. I think its because hes extremely passive and will tolerate her endless self related anecdotes LOL. I'm kind of going into a new topic here, oh wellIP: Logged |

Yes, she is the strong silent type, for a Saggie that is. But the sign 'Taurus' squares my sun, moon, merc, venus, & mars, so our relationship has had it's "challenging" moments, if you know what I mean. But I love her dearly inspite of all that  IP: Logged |

I agree the "I love you" syndrome is pathetic in Leos.I remember telling a Lioness I dated "I love you" after two months, it made her ecstatic... I was young and had no idea what the words meant back then. But then this more recent Lioness just admitted to me in an email that "when dating a guy tries to rush thru to the I Love You so much and would do anything for you" part... psychotic? I dunno... Needy? I think so... As for Caps & Leos getting along, yeah there's friction there, that's for sure. It took me awhile to figure out my Cappy homeboy. I just have to realize he has his point of view too and that I need to listen to it... even if it takes him friggen forever to get it out, lol  PS - So what's up with Taurean Moons? Why the comment? I used to date a Taurean Moon, could use any advice  IP: Logged |

Well, LL you have Taurus rising, is that right? So, naturally you'll tolerate Taurus's better than the "typical" Leo. Taurus moons are very much at the mercy of their emotions, and you can only hope their emotions are conducive to the wellfare of those around them. They have to heed them. But that's a good thing when they love...if they're emotionally stable. I knew a guy with manic-depression who was immune to the meds available for it, and I believe it was because of his made-of-stone Taurus moon. (that's MY theory, but I do realize I'm not a mental health professional)IP: Logged |

I agree with you that taurus moons are resitant to drugs. I knew a couple who were heavy into illegal drug use and it had seemingly NO effect on them whatsoever, and these were strong drugs! I don't think taurus moons are at all aware of their emotions, or if they are, reluctant to admit their negative ones. When i ask the taurus moons i know how they are doing i ALWAYS get the same response, "fine."Just a little update on the original topic i posted on. The leo actually called me on sunday, after blowing me off and lying to me he still has the nerve to call me? I was out though, on a date with a new guy i met, a cap with cancer moon...a real sweetie so far. Now i've got the upper hand on the leo. Muhahhaah IP: Logged |

"Muhahaha..." lol  So you have the upperhand, eh? Well g'luck keepin it!  About Taurean Moons... Would it be a safe assumption to say; they are very emotional and feel very deeply, but only "show" little, if any, of this emotion? IP: Logged |

Lost Leo, my sis is a Taurus Moon, and she has a lot of emotions, we were always tangling as children. She does not like anyone to probe her feelings, she will tell you what she feels, but she likes some softness too. I think if you are gentle and not so pushy she will tell you her feelings. Taurus moon needs a lot of reassurance, she needs to feel loved for her brain, not her body, and told how smart, and accomplished she is. Taurus moon women are really into their careers.I made the mistake of telling my sister I loved her because she was so beautiful, right away she was PO'd. She said that's all you think about, I have a brain too. She is so pretty people do not see her thoughtful side but she is very deep and mystical. When I want to know how she feels, I just guess. Usually I am right but I am never blunt or sarcastic or bitter. She takes it to heart. I write her letters and send cards, it's amazing how the small things really count. Her husband does a lot of small thoughtful things for, such as buying scented candles and putting them by her bed at night. He has a Libra moon which helps. Personally I can be a little too, straight to the finish without any softness, and when I mean beauty I mean the experience I am having with that person. Taurus moon needs to feel emotional, and needs to be a in a positive place financially, emotionally, mentally to be in a relationship. Otherwise it can turn ugly and resentments run deep. My sis would always start arguments when she was mad but never finish them. It was up to me to drag it out of her, whatever was wrong. Now I don't feel guilty about it, I'm her family and so she knows I will never be hurt enough to leave. Otherwise Taurus moon as trouble with releasing toxic anger and boundaries, affection is really, really important. If my sis's husband hasn't been affectionate with her in a few days she is really sad. She was the most affectionate baby I ever saw. Complete opposite of this Cancer/8th house moon, who got crabby the more she was touched. My advice for Taurus moon, do a lot of touching. I know it's the Taurus moon with her because her rising is Aries, in the 12th, and her sun is Sag so she is a lot more thoughtful than me, even if I am a Taurus Sun. Taurus Moons, think about everything, you have to think about her all the time when she's not around. It's like that song by Aretha, You better Think about what you're trying to do to me! Think! Think! No Freedom with the Taurus Moon, you had better be ready to give it UP! She is amazing at how honest she is about what she wants in a man. Me? I'm the type that gives a man my number and then ignores him and wonder why he doesn't call or if I want him to call in the first place. Natasha IP: Logged |

My Taurus moon mom is the kind of person who, at family gatherings, just sits still and looks around the room, but not really looking at anything in particular. Kind of day-dreaming. But if you sit next to her and strike up a conversation, she's happy to let you tell you story. Mostly just saying things like "oh, my...is that right?" "Well, you better be carefull with that", and stuff like that. She's not a spazzy, animated Sagittarius. She's very wall-flower like. But she laughs easily, and is always agreeable. She was very affectionate when we were kids too.IP: Logged |

She's not a spazzy, animated Sagittarius. She's very wall-flower like. But she laughs easily, and is always agreeable. Contrary to what most people believe, we are not always spazzy nor are we all animated. Not even those of us with Fire moons. BUT....we do have our moments. I have very reserved initially and get extremely focused on my work for the most part. Even my younger bro, A Sag with a Scorp moon is very quiet and reserved, until he feel comfortable, but even then he can be very quiet.
I sit back and take in the situation and depending on the comfort level, I will either jump in or just stay in my own world. The truth is, I am quite shy and sometimes wish I could blend in without having to be conversational. That might be my Virgo rising talking though. One of my good friends is a Sag with a Taurus moon. He is sooooo sweet and I do love talking to him. He always has at least 5 things going on at once. He amazes me.  IP: Logged |

I was back-reading and came across this: "They may take the barbs and slings and arrows without batting an eyelash (water off a duck's back), but believe me... they're taking it personally. They're simply not going to give you the satisfaction of knowing that though. You've misunderstood their intentions and their character and therefore, you're foolish. You're no longer on the A list.

You'd think butter wouldn't melt in their mouths, they're so cool. But you've been banished."- Lion: that is like the BEST explanation I have ever heard, right on key, perfect! It also kinda adds to the argument that Scorps & Leos are actually quite similar...  IP: Logged |

Pidaua- I have to disagree with you about sags being spazzy and animated. All the sags i've met are i'd at least qualify as speedy and demonstrative, if not completely susceptible to spastic attacks of flailing arms and talking far too loudly. I would definitely qualify 90% of the sags i've met as jumpy, impulsive, and spazzy. I'm a sag with scorp moon, and yes i will usually sit back and say nothing until i feel comfortable, when once i reach that threshold, i'm cracking jokes every 30 seconds.To Lost Leo and the other leos that responded: I think its hilarious that all the leos take the side of the leo i mentioned. What do you guys all belong to a club or something? IP: Logged |

Sooooo, true and yes I can be spazzy. I do not flail my arms about. I do trip over things and get so excited about what I am talking about that I can trip verbally and physically, but I don't make sweeping gestures with my arms. I also don't speak loud unless I am addressing an audience. I just don't need that attention, but it's like I said earlier, there are times I wish I could just blend in, but that just doesn't happen ( I am not trying to be immodest, but it is true). I do have a kind of deep throaty laugh and I don't hold in when a joke or something funny strikes me. My brother is a teacher, so maybe he gets his fill of center stage up while addressing his students. Maybe is it cultural as well as astrological. I have a few Sag Uncles, one who is very animated and goofy and the other is so sensitive and quiet. He is funny, but is more observant than anything. It could also be that my brother and I were raised my a Cancer mother and a Capricorn father, both with Cancer moons. At any rate, when I was at a work party a few months ago, my coworkers - who have known me for 4 years - were astonished as to how much I laughed, joked and talked. I usually only reserve that for people close to me.  IP: Logged |

My sag friend is one of the most laid back people I know. He's got cancer rising w/ aries moon. He's very fun, one of the few people who can make me laugh, but he does it in a subtle manner. He's philosophical about everything! He's also a Buddhist and does yoga everyday, so maybe that's why he's calm.
