Leo Symbol Myth
The Leo zodiac symbol is the Lion, named by the astrologers of the old world for the stellar constellation this sign refers to. The Lion's astrological symbol goes back to Greek mythology when, in a heroic mythological battle, it was identified with the Lion that Hercules conquered. It has been a sign of triumph, confidence, and bravery ever since.
There are several bright stars in the constellation of Leo, one of which is called Regulus, which means 'the little king' and gives some of the mystical and regal connotations to the sign of the Lion. In Latin, Leo means "lion," being, through translations of ancient astrological texts, the official name for this sign in western astrology.
Leo Season
The Leo season starts on July 23 in the western tropical zodiac, beginning with the middle and height of summer in the Northern Hemisphere. This is the time of year when the sun, the planetary ruler of Leo, is at its full power, warmth, and light. The archetype of Leo radiates proud "solar" confidence, heart-felt bravery, and is connected to the celebration of the summer fruits.
Leo in Fixed Mode
Leo is the second of the four fixed zodiac signs, both of which, in the central period of the four seasons, possess an elemental force of resilience and stability. Leo begins Summer's middle and height, the symbolic source of the assured, well-established, and maintained confidence of this sign.
Leo in Fire Element
Fire, the lightest, brightest element, is Leo's element, thought by ancient astrologers to be akin to the stars' divine light and the sun's essential, life-living rays. In the fire aspect, Leo's affinity for leadership, success, self-promotion, and courage are kindled.
Leo: Domicile of Sun
In classical astrology, only one sign was regulated by the sun, and so is the natural planetary ruler of Leo. Here, in this regal, radiant archetype, the sun has full affinity and potency, being able to be as proud, performative, and vital of a planetary force as it likes to be. It positions the Lions at the centre of life and in the midst of their families and communities, with the sun as the centre of our solar system.
In Leo, the sun is found in the charts of brave, frequently dramatic and imaginative individuals, who do not mind taking leadership or being in the foreground. The sun is linked to our core expression of ego in more modern, psychological forms of astrology, giving people with this sun a reputation for having a solid, well-developed sense of self.
Leo: Ruling Body Parts
Leo is the heart of the zodiac, and the heart, chest, spine and lower back are regulated by this star sign in turn.
No wonder they've put a warm heart into it, the Lionheart lot! They also have dibs on the backbone and are strong and courageous.
