Quick Fact:<\/h3>\n

The Leo zodiac symbol comes from, the myth of the Nemean lion, which was slain by Hercules, as one of his twelve labors of penance. It was specially known for its skin which was impervious to all kinds of weapons, which is why Hercules wrestled the lion with his bare hands and strangled it to death.<\/p>\n

Known for their confidence, ambitiousness, and determination, Leos are highly spirited people, who are constantly pushed by the desire to excel and outclass everyone else.
