Leo’s Stones Reflect the Light of your Ruler – The Sun
Happy Birthday Leos! For those of you who were born from July 23-August 22, there is an abundant choice of stones for you to work and play with. Traditionally, your sign works with yellow stones that reflect the light of your ruler, the sun.
Tiger-Eye is an amazing stone with its bands of flashing light. The gold Tiger-Eye resonates with your sunny self and will strengthen your personal shield. Any color of this stone is protective and facilitates constructive manifestation of your strong will but the golden variety combines the energy of the earth with the sun to create a grounded and yet an extremely high vibration. It is a wisdom stone that would assist those called magik or wizard to create an aura of invisibility or to work with the art of illusion. A shape-shifter’s stone, if you would. If you wore this or carried it on the right side of your body, the effect seems to be enhanced.
The blue Tiger-Eye or Hawk-Eye as it is sometimes called, works with defining higher levels of information, clarifying truth, seeing through murky or distorted situations. It is an excellent stone for dealing with judgment because it gives you a clear eye to see through things that logic might say that is just the way it is. Where the gold Tiger-Eye would make you invisible, this would help you to be clearer to yourself.
Another of the sunny stones is Topaz. This stone would give those in the sign of Leo the push to move in a new direction. It would overcome limitations and help you to gain the recognition you crave. Topaz is a stone the powerful desired to wear for it demonstrated that they were in control of their wisdom. This helps you to recognize your own inner riches as well as drawing to you the support you need. It is a soother of fears and draws divine wisdom into the soul area (solar plexus).
Another attribute of the Topaz is the ability to overcome exhaustion, revitalizing your energy, which is great for a sign that has a tendency to work and play hard. This stone can be worn for long periods when you are very involved in something.
As with all stones, be sure to purify and recharge them regularly. Here is a reminder for a quick and easy way to do that. Purchase Pyrite ‘dust’, place it in a container, add pure water and you will have a mixture you can use for quite some time. Hold your stone under running tepid water and then swish it back and forth in the Pyrite mixture and dry. Your stones are ready to use again.
Happy journey!
