Leo celebrities

Leo is the fixed fire sign and the only sign ruled by the Sun, which passes through it at the height of the northern summer. It is associated with warmth, pride and performance: the sign that gives generously and likes the giving to be seen. Astrologers read it as loyal and hard to overlook. Its symbol is the lion.

In 2026 the Sun is in Leo from 22 July to 23 August (UTC). The dates move by a day from year to year, which is why a birthday at either end needs the year and the hour to settle its sign.

StarMap has birth charts for 520 well-known people with the Sun in Leo, listed here with the best known first. 37 more were born on a day the Sun entered or left Leo and are left out, because the sign then depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.

Signs are computed from each person’s birth date and place with the astronomy-engine ephemeris, checked against Swiss Ephemeris. Birth data comes from Wikidata; a Moon sign is shown only when it holds for the whole birth date, and a rising sign only with a verified birth time. StarMap is for entertainment and self-reflection.
