Leo (23 July - 22 August)
Leo is not at the mercy of its ruling element, fire, but actuates it. As a sign of the Sun it is impossible not to notice a Leo, they are the center of the world, radiating light and power. They can’t even endure if this is not the case, just as their birth stone Ruby. They correspond the archetype of a “good ruler” and Ruby just enhance their dignity.
They are stable, strong leaders who can overcome all situations, and are even able to move huge masses with their vast energies. They are equitable and bounteous and by dint of Ruby they can use their vast energies as a creative power, and avoid becoming a despot. This stone attracts abundance which is rather welcome by Leo who love standing out of the crowd, even as external appearance, love adorning, blazoning themselves and their surroundings.
Many literature mention Peridot as a benevolent stone for Leo that fortifies stately power, while increases their perseverance and stabilizes their power. The joie de vivre radiating from Peridot contributes living their primal drive “I am here, I am well, I emanate power” stably. With the stone’s frequencies creation becomes natural, it will give them a lead on expressing themselves clearly even eloquently.
Citrine, also the gemstone of the Sun, has very similar effects, complementing with powers needed to manifest new ideas and plans. Its influences, transmitting self-awareness, optimism and gaiety are in perfect harmony with Leo’s basic attitude, at the same time fostering Leo’s leader qualities to couple with commitment to humanity. Citrine, just as Ruby, attracts abundance and wealth.
Aquamarine can come to help those Leo girls, who are often made break of their leader qualities to connect their primer resources asserting their self-confidence. Blue Calcite promotes them likewise to realize their own energies and power.
Leo usually have an opinion about everything. To express it prudently they can surely turn to Amethyst. Beryl will also impart wisdom facilitating rightfulness that is indispensable for Leo often in leading position.
Sapphire, this regal gemstone, also promotes Leo to experience power as highly refined service, moving them towards divine power and wisdom. Yellow Sapphire is especially blissful favoring comprehensive perspective, the realization of consistencies. Just as Citrine, yellow Sapphire also attracts exuberance.
However, sometimes even Leo’s energies can run low, but the can be recharged with the help of Garnet, regulator of energy. This gem will fill them up with fresh power and keep them in movement.
And above all, Serendib gems bear all the energies characterizing Sri Lankan people so well: the lightness of heart, joy, hope and good will.
We hope that our pursuit of utilizing the power of gems in artisan, designer jewels can contribute to enrich the life with new powers beyond beauty of their owners.
