The proudest sign of the zodiac, as a regal lion, you love attention and adoration, purring like a pussycat, you love to be stroked and praised, it feeds your ego and gives you the support you need.
If you are ignored or treated badly, you roar loudly and fiercely to get attention. This may intimidate others, until they learn that beneath the aggressive and fearful growl is a pussycat that just wants attention.
