Leries

**SIGN OF THE TENACIOUS**

LE\* [OLIVE CASTE] // \*RIES [DERSE + TIME]

The alternative sway of Leries is Lerist, and the opposite sign is Aquago.

The official website defines Leries in three segments: sign class, lunar sway, and aspect.

Olive Signs are, by and large, incredibly agreeable people. They are generous and enthusiastic, ready to offer help to anyone who needs it. Luck plays a large role in their lives; Olive Signs have a knack for being in the right place at the right time. And even in the case that their luck goes bad, they can ride rough patches out without falling too far into depression or hopelessness. That said, Olive Signs are most comfortable with things that they are familiar with; new places and ideas often alarm them, resulting in a dogmatic insistence that their way is the right way. They can be quite bossy and domineering, although that usually comes out of a genuine belief that they know best and can help the ones they care about. They are extremely faithful friends and lovers, ready to drop everything and go into helper mode. However, if their trust is breached, there's no going back. No one can hold a grudge like an Olive Sign, and they aren't afraid to just pick up and leave if they decide something isn't working for them. Romance and companionship are extremely important to them, so even if they get hurt, their hearts remain open.

Derse Dreamers have personalities marked by a distinct and restless skepticism. Whatever their waking circumstances, chances are they will live in a state of dissatisfaction. Rebellion is in their blood, manifesting whether they are fighting back against a fascist dictatorship, or the most recent trend in casual footwear. Derse Dreamers are cerebral and self-aware; they have a far better grasp on the landscape of their own minds than on the world around them, which they can find alienating and confusing. But as so much of their identity is built on control, they will do their utmost to hide any insecurities, often with false humility or self-deprecating humor. They may be inflexible and pessimistic, but they are also great problem solvers, facing conflicts head-on with shrewd, calculating minds. They see one true path among an infinite snarl of wrong ones. They tend to be introverted, but if you win their trust Derse Dreamers are extremely powerful allies. However, they find sincere vulnerability difficult and will often keep people at arm's length. Letting go and living in the moment is hard for a Derse Dreamer; they constantly look toward the future and analyze the past.

Those bound to the aspect of Time are fighters, full stop. Their lives are often marked by struggle, not so much because fate has it in for them, but because they are fundamentally incapable of just accepting things as they come. They value action over passive acceptance, even if that may not be the wisest or safest choice. Don't try to tell a Time-bound to sit still and look pretty. They are very goal-focused, and tend to value the destination over the journey, and you won't find them making that journey in any traditional sort of way. To quote cheesy posters found on many a guidance counselor's wall-"impossible is just a word". If you need a miracle, they are who you call. At their best, the Time-bound are empathetic and relentless problem-solvers. At their worst they are ruthless, defensive, and impulsive.

Leo (from the Greek Λέων) is the fifth (5th) of twelve (12) western zodiac signs. It takes inspiration from the zodiac Leo "The Lion", and people born within the months of July 23rd to August 22nd are known to be a Leo. The zodiac Leo is one (1) of six (6) positive signs, one (1) of four (4) fixed signs, and one (1) of three (3) fire signs alongside Aries and Sagittarius. The sign ruler of Leo is Sun, the detriment is Saturn, the exhaltation is thought nowadays to be Neptune, and the fall is thought nowadays to be Pluto.

The six (6) positive signs (Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius, and Aquarius) are known as the signs with a Positive Polarity. This is in reference to the energy that the sign holds. These six (6) signs are traditionally known as the active, Yang, expressive, or "masculine" signs. The positive signs also include the fire and air triplicities.

The three (3) modalities or modes in reference to a sign is talking about the position it can be found in during each season. The four (4) elements manifests in three (3) modalities: Cardinal, Fixed, and Mutable. They are also known as the Quadruplicities, because they are grouped with four (4) signs in each group, one sign of each element. Each of the three (3) modes also have specific traits that the signs grouped to them hold or example. Fixed signs are known for their resistance to change, great willpower, and inflexibility. The Fixed signs are Leo (fire), Scorpio (water), Aquarius (air), and Taurus (earth).

The four (4) elements (Air, Earth, Fire, and Water) are attributed to the twelve (12) western zodiac signs, and each group corresponds to a specific group of traits often found in those signs, along with a personality type that was proposed by the Greek physician, Hippocrates. These groups are known as the Four Element Triplicities. One of these groups is Fire which has been known to house the traits of Assertive, Drive, Willpower. According to Hippocrates, the Fire element correlates to the Choleric personality type. Choleric people are described to be Neurotic Extroverts or Unstable Extroverts, which means that they tend to be touchy, restless, and agressively optimistic.

Leo people are confidant and creative, they embody the spirit of a Lion and they know that they have the ability in them to be as dominant as the lion is known to be. Leo might have a little bit of an ego, but they do really care about the people around them and they're always striving to be the best version of themself that they can be. They're self aware and they know their flaws, but this doesn't stop the Leo from taking on the problems of everyone around them while suppressing their own struggles and insecurities. They are warm-hearted people who try to live life to the fullest and they only want everyone else to have a wonderful time as well and will often go out of their way to make sure everyone else around them is comfortable and having a great time.

Leo is the type of sign that needs constant love and reassurance so relationships with signs like Libra, Gemini, Aries, and Sagittarius work the best because these signs are willing to give their all to their partner. Aquarius is also a good match for the Leo because the two of them "complete" the other and fill in whatever they believed they were missing and thus, the Aquarius and Leo are an unstoppable duo. Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn could also prove to be a good match for the Leo as they often can provide a "down-to-earth" experience and view on the Leo's problems and help them work through whatever they're going through. Signs like Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces remind the Leo that not everything is about them and might sometimes bring problems or conflict to their relationships. In reality, no sign is truly a bad sign for the Leo as they can get along with mostly everyone.
