Are leo's known to lie or do they tend to be truthful?

Honesty is something that just kicks me, because I can be too honest. But Leo Suns with Pisces moon are a different type of Leo than the usual ego-centric Leo. I do know a Leo Sun with Leo Moon, I really like her a lot but she is so dramatic, but she is even honest, sometimes in a boastful way, but still very honest.

Now Libra Suns on the other hand are not too keen on honesty, especially the men!

missneptune, you make it sound like you have a monopoly on being a leo who's not ego centric because you have a pisces moon?

Sorry you have trouble with leo's, but I am more likely to hurt your feelings with the truth than blow smoke up your butt with a lie. If I am in the wrong, I can admit that without a lie too.

Geminis are much better liars than leos, so are aqua's, matter of fact I have known libra's and cappy's to make up some huge type stuff and just tell it as true. Aries are the biggest bullshitters I ever met, mosty to promote themselves.

Your statements are so very general. If a black man stole from me, would I then say, why do black men all steal? Would that be right? Would that be fair? I don't think so.

ANd of course the two leo's chimed right in that think they are somehow better than other leo's for whatever reason. Thier moon or something. nothing personal libralove, I still like you.

Yeah, Sunshine_lion you go girl!

I really don't like generalizing Sun signs, actually... There are so many factors besides the Sun, Moon, ASC., ETC. Unfortunately you have to be a pretty advanced astrologer to notice every detail, so I sometimes generalize the zodiac signs.

I think leo and aquarius are two of the more truthful signs... having said that i'm blatently truthful and i'm taurus/aries so maybe all of us have it in us to do both?

sunshine, no offence, but your statement referring to me is completely off what i was saying.

i haven't made out im a better leo than any other leo, i simply felt missneptune was implying all other leo's are ego-centrics unless they have pisces moon, which is rubbish., so how on earth am i, by feeling that way, implying im better than any other leo's? in any case, it doesn't really matter what you think i was implying, i know i wasn't implying im better than anyone, i just didn't like being labled a 'typical ego-centric leo' because i don't have pisces moon, and that statement in its self is egotistical about ones self.

as for liars, i don't think sun signs are the most potent way of making a good liar, its probably aspects.

im a very honest person, and i also obsecure the truth a lot.

but anyway.. charlie, any sign can be a liar, you can't generalize leo's based on 1 when theres millions of each sign amongst eachother.

that would be like me saying all taurus are slow, is that true?

no biggie libra love, I just know leo's negative traits are something you find distasteful. No Ones negative traits are pretty. no exceptions. we all have light we all have darkness. it doesn't matter.hope you have a great day all.

Never known a Leo lie.

Does exaggeration and tall stories count as straying from the truth? A Lion of my close acquaintance would be offended at the suggestion of being anything other than strictly truthful. However, in the urge to be proved right, the person who knows what's best, etc.

I don't think we can fairly castigate a 12th of the world as being prone to untruths.

The figure is far larger.

I've seen an evasive Pisces squirm when put on the slab, I've watched a crafty Gemini weasel his way out of trouble with clever words, and I've caught out an Aqua adjusting the definition of veracity. And so on around the zodiac.

Libralove09, I wasn't implying that Leo Suns with Pisces moons are superior, just that they have deflated egos, being the opposite of the usual generalized by standard of an inflated ego. In fact I get really annoyed at the descriptions that Leo moon gets, but sometimes I believe these people have more of the negative traits of Leo than the Sun sign, if you get my drift? Sometimes I feel like astrology can be too subjective, so its really difficult to pin-point everything.

I've known some Leos that lied. They were very good bullshitters. However, I've also met many honest Leos. There are liars and honest people in every sign. No sun sign is inherently more truthful or more dishonest than other signs.

Everyone tells lies (no matter how big or small). Whether it be to get themselves out of a situation or to manipulate or to not hurt someone's feelings. Have you ever had someone you know get a terrible haircut or wear a horrible outfit or do something you didn't agree with? Did you tell them the truth, or work your way around it?

Leos are too magnanimous to lie. It's beneath them to do so.

They are a Fire sign. Fire is Spirit. Spirit is Truth. Just think of the other Fire signs Aries and Saggitarius. They can blurt out and be blunt with the Truth. Leos are slightly more tactful, but only slightly

Hah, this is a tricky one, because if I say "I'm always honest", how can you tell if I'm being honest?

Anyway, as a Leo Sun/Cancer Moon, I make it a practice to be honest all the time. I don't mean blunt, rude, or hurtful--but the daily practice of satya. I try to be honest with myself, even when it's really scary or hard.

I think most Leos are pretty honest folks. We are openhearted and loyal, and that lends itself to honesty.

probably the qn shld be wht kind of lies, and in which way, and in what cicumstances different signs will lie

sorry i find such qns which simply ask to assign a very basic human behavior to signs to be v naive

i disagree missneptune, i don't think any moon sign deflates a leo's ego, some placements might help hide the ego though, but its all there.

and it felt like you were implying that your pisces moon makes you a better leo because it 'deflates' your ego for you, that statement its self was quite egotistic, its not the first time for you either lol...

Is there any reason why people start to get so intense over question's about astrology? I am aware that sun sign's can be vague. I didn't come on here to be attacked. I simply asked a question whether Leo's are known to be liars. I know you can't generalize one sign that way. I just don't understand why people are so quick to go into argumentative attack mode. Forget I even asked. Clearly no one is interested in giving any insight and just want's to attack me for asking a simple question.

CHARLIETHEBULL, don't let yourself be irritated or annoyed too much - same has happened to many of us: That you ask one simple question or post a simple reply to a thread ... and all miraculously everyone seems to get everything wrong ...;-) Don't know why this happens - it happened to me before, just a "bad vibe" in the air for a moment or so...

Concerning your question: I have come close to many Leos (especially Leo-guys) in my life - I met different kinds of Leos - also one awful liar amongst them. (Funny thing: The liar openly and "honetsly" admitted to be liar ... which made things even more absurd...)

Guess I understand what you want to say - that no Sun-sign alone can determine whether a person is determined to be a liar or cheater or not.... I believe, really everyone can be. But I guess, each Sun sign might carry its own motivation/reason for lying. For Leos ... maybe one could say ... they'd do anything to glamourize themselves, to gain and protect their "number one"-rank on the center of the stage, they' d rather apply lies in order to appear "interrsting" than they'd risk to come up as "dull" or "boring" (this would be their greatest fear).

Other star signs would have other motivations for lying, maybe. Like: Cancers to protect their emotional turf, Libras to evade any discussion, etc...

In my own experience: Strong aspects between natal Sun and/or Mercury to natal Neptune are indeed an indicator for ... say ... having a creative approach to truth, honesty and reality;-) Not always is the lying well done with these folks, sometimes it is easy to detrace. I've come to know a few people with their Suns/Mercurys squaring their own Neptune ... and they have been really helpless liars, in different ways. Sometimes they desperately believed in their own lies ... not necessarily with a bad intention behind that - just: dreamers who refuse to see and tell it as it is.

My recommendation would be: If you meet someone whose Sun and/or Mercury is cj., opposed or square their own Neptune, beware, be careful - and just take everything with a grain of salt. These people cannot trust themselves, really - neither can you trust them to 100%. One must learn to "read" these people properly.

Also I must add that Libran influence ... doesn't really help, as far as honesty goes. Too much "wishy washy" going on here (at least for my taste), extreme evasiveness - something one must be willing and able to cope with - Libras: So tyring - you ALWAYS must read "between the lines", they are NEVER open, in my experience. This goes for Libra-Mars especially.

Huge "honesty"-factor have all Sagittarian-placements, in my experience.

I'm sorry Libralove09, if I came off egotistical. I was just recalling from my own experience that the few Leo Suns that I know are very honest, and it seems that if the Moon is more compatible with the Sun, than Leo's energies are more prominent and apparent being both good and bad qualities.

I was thinking that a deflated ego has to do with not feeling comfortable with oneself especially the Leo energies, when let's for example one has a water Moon. I know someone else that has Pisces Sun and Asc., but she also has Aries Moon, she comes off very Pisces like, but than will suddenly have these outbursts of Aries qualities, anyways my point being that it seems like it takes longer to adjust to let's say a Fire Sun with a Water Moon.

But what seems to be more apparent is when someone has two very different elements or signs for the Sun and Asc., because it seems like others can more visibly see the contrasts between the two.

CharlietheBull, I didn't think you were deeming Leo Suns a certain way, after all everyone has experienced a different person that may have a Leo Sun or whatever, who expresses themselves as a complete liar or a person who is very honest...

"Strong aspects between natal Sun and/or Mercury to natal Neptune are indeed an indicator for ... say ... having a creative approach to truth, honesty and reality;-)"

I've noticed this too.

"i dont think lying has anthing to do with any sign...its a moral value....why shld it be a function of any sign?"

I actually do think that, whatever their intentions, different sun signs face different moral challenges. To put it sweepingly, the Fire signs have to be careful not to be arrogant, the Water signs have to be careful not to be manipulative, the Air signs have to be careful not to be unreliable, and the Earth signs have to be careful not to be a drag.

In my experience, some signs do tend to be extra-honest...like Tauruses and Leos.
