Some people born on this day have a psychic gift, unusual in a Leo, and because they are often temperamentally unsympathetic to this area of the psycheology, the gift may be surpressed. This is as foolish as it is to ignore any talent. Spot the tendency early in youth with the usual signs - thoughts of someone you haven't seen for a long time, the telephone rings and it's them, or, with children, second guessing their opponent in snap to an unusual degree.
It will rarely develop to its full degree in people born today, but sensible individuals hone their psychic talent and make use of it. July 31 is particularly interested in money. Both sexes get over anxious if they feel they haven't got enough, or can't treat themselves, or somebody they love, to something they feel they deserve. Yet July 31's clever hunches are often famous, and particularly useful in making deals, laying bets on horses or even just having a go in the lottery or at bingo. Never use it to take a big risk or when you feel desperate, because these emotions will muddy the clarity of your talent. But if you stick to little things, you will be pleased at what comes your way.
Both at work and in private July 31 is characterised by marked generosity of spirit. This, coupled with great charm, makes both sexes sought after companions, lovers and colleagues, although they can make it hard for unpleasant bosses, because another marked part of this psycheology is an extreme sense of honour. Anyone transgressing is likely to be taken to pieces very thoroughly, and without fear.
If such confrontations result in the departure of this creature for another job or way of life, so be it. These people, more courted by the world than courting, have no difficulty finding other jobs, changing careers, or establishing a completely new, enjoyable way of life.

Leos are great animal lovers and July 31 in particular is a doggy sort of person. People born on this date often have iron constitutions and new medical research now shows that pets actually contribute towards good health. Latest studies have established that stroking or cuddling an animal reduces health risks by lowering heart rate, blood pressure and cholesterol levels and boosting immunity to illness. Even watching goldfish reduces blood pressure by up to 15 per cent. Medical workers at Buffalo University, New York, have discovered that when dog owners solve mathematical problems and give public speeches, their heart rate and blood pressure rises less than when non-doggy people do the same.

You are quietly ambitious and determined to make your mark in the world.
