If you’re a Leo wondering why people dislike you purely based on your vibe or star sign, there is a simple reason.

Francesca explained it's all down to envy… quite simply, everyone wants to be you!

She said: “Leos are hated because it’s all about them and also they are the most attractive.

Jealousy is an ugly trait but unfortunately, you bring it out in a lot of people, Leo.

Leo is a hot fire sign and ruled by the Sun, which represents the ego and self-expression.

Francesca said: “You’re so hot and special, there’s a slight amount of jealousy towards you.

“The Sun and ego are strongest in the sign of Leo and bright stars attract the most attention and jealous eyes.”
