Leo - Legends and History |
|
|
|
The lion is a symbol of kingship and
masculine power - and of the sun which rules the sign of Leo. It
was worshipped in ancient Egypt, as its entry into Leo in the heat
of Summer coincided with the annual flooding of the Nile. Regulus,
the star which marks the Lion's heart, was worshipped as the ruler
of the heavens throughout Europe and Asia as far back as 4000 BC.
It brought riches, glory and power.The stars of Leo, which form
a 'reversed question mark', lie between Cancer and Virgo on the
zodiac band. |
