Gemstones for Leo

The signs of the zodiac have their origins in early civilizations that observed the night skies to help determine the arrival of the best planting times. The movement of the sun into the constellations would happen regularly throughout the year, often signaling seasonal changes.

Stories and myths arose around these groups of stars, mostly to do with animals or heroic deeds by the gods and goddesses. These tales helped pass knowledge from generation to generation in the days when very few could read and write.

The zodiac then progressed into a fortune telling custom as people felt that there was a strong connection between the cosmos and human activity. Part of this custom was connecting the signs of the zodiac to colors, elements, personalities, gods and gemstones.

We have selected two fantastic gemstones to represent the Leo – peridot and citrine.
