Lion Signifies
courage. The lion symbolizes the astrological sign of LEO, which rules the
heart. Courage originates from the heart and from an individual's sense of
personal authority. One who acts truly from the heart is capable of
leadership, achievement and the kind of success that encourages the
accomplishments of others.
The female hunts and kills prey, feeds the group and takes
care of the young. She is the nurturing force in all senses. The male roars to frighten prey and force them toward
the lioness, who waits patiently for the right moment to attack. Although the male is the group's protector, he
doesn't look for confrontation nor attacks needlessly. He only acts when challenged and will fight to death in order
to protect, but in reality he prefers the easy, peaceful life.
Lion's Medicine teaches us the magic of group interaction, of group energy. It also teaches us the secrets of
silence and patience. Patience is to pay attention to detail. Lion suggests that we examine ourselves closely in
order to understand our strengths and weaknesses, and to wait for the proper moment to act and take full
advantage of a given situation.
Learn from Lion the proper way to use power and strength. Stay calm and still, sure of your power. But if
necessary, don't hesitate to fight for the things you are interested in.
