The dark side of Leo

Sin of pride

You have a reputation for having an XXL ego, so it’s not a crime to love yourself. The Leo is without a doubt the most conceited of the zodiac, and its beauty is matched only by its intelligence.

Gaining the respect and admiration of crowds is written in the genes of the king of the zodiac; it cannot be otherwise.

Proud as possible, Leos are capable of anything to save appearances, and thus maintain the high opinion that others have of them.

Avoid being arrogant or dominating conversations and interactions. Learn to become more aware of yourself in order to enhance the positivity that you are able to show to others.

The difference between pride and arrogance

Pride and arrogance are alike. However, there is a difference between the two that you should know.
The proud have a reason for their excessive pride (their human qualities, their achievements, their wealth), while the arrogant naturally thinks himself better.

For example, a famous sportsman who gets angry because he has not been recognized and forced to wait in a waiting line, shows pride. On the other hand, a teenager who refuses to queue like his comrades, because he considers that his time is more precious than theirs, is arrogant.

In fact, you could say that unlike the arrogant, the proud have some more reasons to be unbearable.
Aside from this, their flaws are the same. They have the same signs, have the same drawbacks and undergo the same treatments.

Pride breeds even more pride and prevents the positive

If your partner or someone close to you acts out of pride, it is very likely that you will end up doing the same thing, being sick of fighting for it to change.

It is true that we often act out of pride to protect ourselves, because it is very difficult to stay the course in these kind of situations that are rich in emotions. These proud people are gradually locking themselves in and widening the gap between them every day.

They will then only be able to feel resentment. There is nothing more destructive than suffering because of your pride and not seeing your own wound.
