Happy Birthday to the Lions - All our Leo Friends

Happy Birthday to the Lions - All our Leo Friends

Posted by Heather McConnell on 15th Jul 2021

If you were born between July 23rd and August 22nd, you are a fierce Leo lion! In Greek mythology, the Leo constellation is associated with the invincible Nemean Lion. The Sun rules this zodiac sign, taking the lion’s natural courage to the maximum level. Leos are also infused with the Sun’s happiness and humor. Just like Aries and Sagittarius, Leo is a Fire sign. This element draws out emotional warmth, and being friends with a Leo is like being wrapped in a cozy blanket. Leos are a very self-aware sign. They are willing to spend the time to discover themselves and their desires, and they will use their overflowing energy to pursue their goals relentlessly. Leos love the limelight. Their ambition causes them to seek fame and success, sometimes to the detriment of those around them. Leos know their worth; while this quality keeps them from being taken advantage of, it can also lead Leos to become arrogant and stubborn. Because they are creative and passionate, Leos make excellent leaders, just like their “King of the Jungle” namesake. These strong leadership skills, however, mean that they tend to bristle when they are not in control, and many Leos chose to pursue careers in management or self-employment. An appeal to Leo’s generous, loyal nature always wins out. Deep in their hearts, Leos seek to rule to achieve the highest good for their community.

Everyone can benefit from the lion’s courage, positivity, and confidence. Leo may be your Sun Sign, or it may be affecting you somewhere else in your natal chart. Maybe Leo boosts your career through Jupiter or lends fidelity to your love life through Venus. No matter how Leo affects you, working with crystals can unlock your inner lion!
