Flowers of Leo
Flowers that turn their faces with the sun as it travels through
the skies, such as the sunflower, the sweetly scented heliotrope,
or cherry pie, and the scarlet pimpernel, belong to the Sun, and
so to Leo. Your herbs are the warmly scented chamomile and golden
saffron, cinnamon, rosemary, angelica and lemon balm. Your trees
are the bay and the juniper, as well as the orange and lemon.
Your essential oils are orange, lemon, neroli, made from orange
blossom, petitgrain, made from citrus leaves, and juniper, which
are refreshing and stimulating for Leo, as well as lemon balm, chamomile
and rosemary, which strengthen and soothe your fiery Leo nature.

The Jewels of Leo
Leo, the sign of high summer, is ruled by the life-giving Sun and amber,
which was believed to be the essence of its sunset rays, congealed by
the sea and thrown up on the shore, is its stone. Wearing amber brings
the warmest most generous side of Leo to the fore. It is also a symbol
of empathy with others and its use as jewelry as a lucky, talismanic
substance, dates back to the earliest days of ancient Greece. The fiery,
passionate ruby, symbol of the heart, which Leo rules, also belongs
to the Lion, and is said to ward off negative emotions and give spiritual
strength.
