Zodiac Gift Guide: Leo

To help you find the perfect birthday gift for that special someone or for yourself, we've teamed up with Emma Howarth, founder of Mystical Thinking to create our Zodiac Gift Guide.

Leo (22nd July - 21st August)

Big-hearted Leo is like sunshine for the soul. Open-minded, gregarious and totally at home in the spotlight, the zodiac’s lion has serious star quality!

This larger-than-life sign is ruled by the sun, lives for languid summer days and loves getting the party started. Indeed, head off in the direction of sundowners, sunsets and festival vibes and you’ll likely find Leo at the centre of it all.

All this sunshine energy makes gold the obvious starting point for Leo jewellery. Think shiny bold statements rather than delicate trinkets and you’re on the right track.

Leo isn’t afraid to stand out from the crowd or be the first try out a trend: charm-laden anklets, bejewelled sunglasses chains and eye-catching pendants for the win.

Leo Season Vibes

Leo season means high summer, high vibes and high hopes all round. It’s a great time to take five, appreciate how far we’ve come and step up the indulgence factor a touch.

Leo loves to look and feel good so harness some of that fire sign energy into putting yourself first. Soak up some sun, splash out on a new look, invest in your wellbeing and turn every minor event into an excuse for celebration.

Leo energy is brave and bold and unapologetic – and it definitely knows its worth. Go get that big dream. Reach for the stars. Believe in better. And leave all the dull admin tasks on your To Do list till next month.

The July 24th full moon in free-spirited Aquarius adds the right kind of fuel to the party season fire – if you’re ready to switch up your social life now is the time to try something new. And if putting yourself to the top of the priority list feels better than you thought it would, the Leo new moon on 8 August is the ideal time to set some seriously feel-good intentions. It’s time all of us turned up the fun factor and got some lust for life back.
