Leo Career & Money
July 23 – August 22
How Leo works, earns, leads, and where the wheels come off.
Leo Work Style
Leos thrive in any field where the work is visible and the audience matters. Performing arts, entertainment, hospitality, fashion, marketing, brand building, sales, politics, teaching, and any leadership role that lets them be the face of the project. They are also unusually good at coaching and mentoring, because they love watching other people shine on a stage they helped build.
Ideal Work Environment for Leo
They can struggle in jobs where their contribution is invisible. A Leo doing important work behind the scenes for a boss who takes the credit will not last. They don't need to be famous, but they do need to feel seen by the people whose opinions they respect.

Leo and Money
The romance, the dinners, the gifts, the shoes, the apartment with the good light: it all adds up. They are also unusually generous, picking up the tab and helping out friends who are short on rent. The Leos who do well financially are usually the ones who learn to put a fixed slice of every paycheck into savings before they let themselves see it, because if they see it, they'll spend it on someone they love.
