Leo, the fifth astrological sign, is associated with the constellation that bears its name and the legendary Nemean Lion. This animal, the size of an elephant and tough leather like that of a crocodile, was considered invincible by the inhabitants of the region. But Hercules managed to strangle him and ripped his skin with his hands, using it as a garment. Hera, queen of the gods and enemy of Hercules, transformed the Lion into the constellation we see today. People born between July 22nd and August 22nd are considered typical Leos. Furthermore, Leo forms with Aries/Aries and Sagittarius the triplicity of the Fire signs, and is one of the four fixed signs along with Taurus, Scorpio and Aquarius.
