I'm definitely a leader. I may not be a good one, but I'm thrust into that position often. I don't like anyone telling me what to do.

I think being a leader may be shown by the chart,to some degree.
Randall,you have Pluto in the 1st house.I think Lonake does,too.
I would call her a leader,also.

Any leader will have people who agree and people who do not.
The MORE important question is how many of those could actually lead?
Very,very few,imo.

I recently heard a man I really respect address the same issue.
His has a Bible college and teaches on the radio and TV.
People are always coming up to him TELLING him how to do it better.
He says," What have you done?"
Most of these people have never even run a business but they want to tell HIM what to do.
He is the one who says "Opinions are like noses. Everyone has one and they usually have a few holes in them" lol

I'm flexible. Most often I am a leader- by nature But I also know when to follow orders (at work) and lead by example

I dunno but I'm assertive! I don't mind following. I'll lead when I feel like it tho, or if everyone else is being stupid (incompetent, passive).

Depends really, there is nothing worse than a wannabe "leader" who knows little about something trying to act as if they do.

Then there are times when ones knowledge or diplomatic skills are called for a leadership role follows.

I'm a loner. I follow my own lead. In relation to others, I'll follow if the leader knows wtf they are talking about, but am not fit to lead others well myself.

I'm a pathfinder. I pave my own way and I fly solo. I may pick a select worthy few to fly with me, and I ditch everyone else.

Cap sun with 12th house Leo....

I'm leading from the shadows, or trekking out on my own...

Been told quite a few times that I simply cannot follow... the law, instructions, direction...

lone wolf + solitary goat

there's really no finding the aurea mediocritas when it comes to this matter in my eyes. I'm always leaning towards extremities, for the sake of progress.
