V. LEO, THE LION V. Fifth sign of the zodiac; second fiery sign; second fixed sign
ОглавлениеThis is the sign of the central will, the inner consciousness, beyond the brain mind. The life forces of the fiery triplicity starting in Aries are in this sign matured, directed, and controlled, and the chaos and disruption of the life energies brought into more harmony and order. Stability of the life currents, and the transmutation of consciousness from head to heart, is shown in this sign; the work of nourishing, preserving and sustaining being one of the chief Leo characteristics. This is the sign of power, vitality and organising ability. It is the principal focus of the Prana or Solar Breath, hence gives the greatest stability of life and more ‘Vril’ or Vim than any other sign.
In contrasting the two fiery signs, Aries is the centre of heat and the creative forces, and Leo that of vitality and generation. Its most distinguishing characteristic is the desire to give, or to rule, with a fondness for lavish outlay, and the instinct of loyalty. It is the sign of organisation, and concentrative energy.
