Why does a lion represent the Leo sign?
The sunny Leo sign is known for craving attention and its natural inclination to claim the spotlight. Based on that alone, it’s not too surprising that one of the most fabulous big cats—known for its roar and flowing mane—represents the sign. However, ultimately, the representative was dictated by the stars many years ago. The Leo constellation tells the tale of Hercules and the Nemean Lion. In this myth, the monstrous Nemean lion was the foe, and Hercules slayed it as the first of his Herculean tasks. The lion in the sky is believed to be Zeus’ acknowledgment of his heroic deed.
