About Leo Emoji
Usage: Astrology accounts lean on it, and late July through August brings a surge of birthday posts. It shows up in bios as shorthand for a personality the writer is claiming, often half-jokingly. The jokes about Leos being self-absorbed are made as often by Leos as about them, which is itself on brand.
Encoded in Unicode 1.1 in 1993 with the rest of the zodiac. The constellation is among the few that genuinely resembles its namesake, and its brightest star, Regulus, sits almost exactly on the ecliptic, which means the Moon passes in front of it regularly.
