Celebrating
the Season of Leo-July 23-August
22
Intensely
bright zinnias sway in summer breezes
creating waving fields of neon pink,
deep luxuriant coral, vivid red
and orange, sunflowers reach towards
the sky bending their faces to drink
in the warmth and life. Vegetable
gardens begin producing their bounties
sending out bushels of sun warm
tomatoes, zucchini, eggplant and
more.
This is the season of the Lion--bold,
sun-filled, radiant, extravagant,
nourishing and beautiful.
Nature promises theatrics and drama--in
heat waves that sink in for extended
stays, in house shaking thunderstorms,
in dazzling sunsets and awe inspiring
sunrises.
We're surrounded by the wealth of
the planet, indulged by her gifts,
pampered and nurtured by her promise
that as long as the sun shines bright
during the summer...everything will
be all right.
It's a season to celebrate the wonders
of the Leos in our lives AND to
honor the Leo within ourselves.
It's a perfect month to embrace
the gift of life that we have been
given and to allow our personal
gifts a chance to shine at their
brightest.
Extravagance, joy, hope, playfulness,
abundance, courage, self-belief,
self-confidence, an appreciation
for luxury and the opportunity to
indulge ourselves in a healthy bit
of self-pampering--these too are
the gifts we're being offered.
