Leo The Lion
July 23 – August 22
Born to shine. Born to lead. Born to love with the full, generous force of the sun.
A fixed fire sign, ruled by the Sun.
The height of summer. Lammas approaching. The fields golden, the light at its most generous, the world given over to warmth and the full, unguarded expression of life in bloom.
In ancient Egypt, Leo marked the season of the Nile's flooding, the annual miracle that made civilization possible.
The Sphinx watches the horizon from the Giza plateau, lion-bodied and eternal. Leo carries that energy.
The guardian. The one who stands in the light and holds the center.
Ruling Planet: Sun
The great luminary. It moves through every sign, marks every season, and governs the conscious self.
Element: Fire
Tejas in Sanskrit. Pyr in ancient Greek. The illuminating element.
It warms. It creates. It draws others into its orbit.
Chakra: Solar Plexus & Heart
Solar Plexus. Personal power. The courage to act from your own center.
Heart. The capacity to love at full strength. Leo's greatest power.
Tarot: Strength (VIII)
Not force, but the quiet power of the self that has made peace with its own nature. Paul Foster Case connected Strength to Leo, to the courage that comes not from dominating the lion but from loving it into stillness.
