BTW, one book I highly recommend for anyone hoping to master the essence of signs is Steven Forrest, The Inner Sky.
Rather than looking at signs as collections of static (and often unrelated) personality traits, Forrest talks about each sign as having a goal, or "end point." His is one of the few books that takes a dynamic approach to planets, signs, and houses. Each has a mode of operation that works well, along with potentially dysfunctional expressions.
Leo at its best is playful and generous. At its best, Leo is a natural leader, loyal and able to attract loyalty. Dysfunctional Leo becomes arrogant or bossy. Within limits, we have the capacity to focus on the empowering interpretations.
