Man

The Leo Man

The Leo man wants to be proud of the person beside him and to show them to the world: to his friends, his family, even at his aunt's birthday. In astrology the ruler of the sign is the Sun, and when he is in love his warmth can be felt from across the room. Once he has chosen, he is faithful. He needs to hear that he is valued; sensing it is not enough.

The Leo man is the favourite uncle of every child in the family and knows how to play seriously: the fifth house, which tradition gives the sign, is the house of play and of children. There are always guests at his place: the big table, good music, friends until late. He cares about how he looks and sees nothing funny in it.

Woman

The Leo Woman

The Leo woman walks into a room and the room notices. Her partner has to enjoy this without competing with her. She loves generously and celebrates the successes of the people close to her more loudly than her own. In astrology the fire of a fixed sign burns long, and her feelings do not cool easily. She does not beg for attention: when she does not get it, she quietly pulls back.

The Leo woman is the one who sings first at karaoke and then gets everyone else up. Her gifts are well thought out and a little more expensive than they need to be. She keeps her word and her friendships for years. Once she has made a decision, other people's opinions rarely change it.

Stones

Stones for Leo

The Leo stone is onyx in one of the old Western lists of the zodiac; in the other it is sardonyx, onyx with reddish-brown bands, and chrysolite, also called peridot. The modern list of birthstones by month gives August peridot, sardonyx and spinel, and most Leo birthdays fall in August.

Onyx and sardonyx are banded, and cameos have been cut from them since antiquity: the light layer becomes the image on the dark ground. Peridot and spinel are transparent and are worn in rings and earrings. The link between a stone and a sign is symbolic, and each school describes it in its own way.
