Leo The Lion

In today's society, constellations are known as a group of stars that when viewed from our planet earth, form a pattern that we can see at night with the unaided eye. There are also groups of constellation families; such as the Ursa major family, the Perusues Family, the Hercules Family, the Orion Family, the Bayer Group, the Heavenly Waters, the La Caille Family and finally the most known constellation group; the Zodiacal Family. The zodiacal family consists of the zodiac constellations signs. These signs usually describe your personality and who you are as a family. The constellation, Leo, is my zodiac sign, and in my particular interest for it depicts who I am. The Leo constellation is the twelfth largest constellation in the night sky and

Other symbolic attributes for a lion are strength, courage, power, royalty, dignity, authority, dominion, justice, wisdom and ferocity which I believe are all attributes displayed by Pericles in both his political and military career. Ancient Greek symbolism for a lion is the protector of the home and Pericles really showed that in the battles protecting his beloved home, Athens.

The constellation I chose was Camelopardalis. This constellation represents my favorite animal, the Giraffe. Unsurprizingly, this constelation does resemble the Giraffe in appearance. The name this constellation bears comes from the Greek, and has three meanings: leopard, Giraffe, and camel. Camelopardalis can be seen best in the month of Febuary. However, it is not terriable visable. Overall, Camelopardalis is only a 4th magnatude consellation. There are eight other constellation in the vansinity of Camelopardalis.

The symbolic meaning of lion embodies strength but it is also a creature of the night when it searches for its prey. The lion is also used as a metaphor for Lucifer multiple times in the Bible.

Through History social injustices have been a normal affair without much leadership to correct it. Even though our great country is nine months away from her two hundred and fortieth birthday little has changed. While many champions of a movement start out with good intentions they still usually fall victim to the political machine, and its vices. Politics is the last line of defense for righting society’s wrongs, but the division of what is right, and what one thinks is right for them is closing. Something as simple as a bathroom is questioned from a gender equality standpoint.

The clouds turned eerie and dark, as lightning struck beautifully, and the thunder roared loudly in the sky, welcoming the new king of the Lionheart Kingdom, King Leo XVI. Leo was a fortunate and young cub born in the wealthy side of the kingdom. He was chosen to be the king because his grandfather, Leo XIV had died. Leo was still a young cub, and he still had so much to discover about the world around him. He was not the typical lion who was brave, courageous, and audacious; he was more of a lazy, indolent, and an indecisive lion. As soon as he became king he moved into a paradisal and heavenly palace called Leon, where everything is what any poor animal could ever dreamed of. And what is a king without a queen? Leo decided

Gemini is the constellation I have chosen to use in my essay. The reason for that is my zodiac sign is Gemini, and it's the constellation I am most familiar with. Gemini is composed of several stars, the most popular being Pollux and Casper, the two 'heads' of the constellation. The greek myth where Gemini is orinated from is of two twin brothers -the stars- Pollux and Casper. The constellation is seen between the constellations, Taurus and Cancer.

In this Dystopia the focal story is on Leo who is a brave man that stepped up to care for his aberrantly bulky family after his father passed away. Granting, in his world his family is actually common size. His mother barely cares for her family since her husband died, so all the pressure it put on Leo. Regardless of it being a burden, for Leo he handles it with exceptional maturity, as if he has been an adult since he was thirteen. Thirteen was a distinctive year for Leo because it was when he received a chip inserted into his wrist which was a tracking device for the government called the Bodhi. The central theme of the dystopia is that the Bodhi won the civil war and got rid of currency. The fine line between dystopia and utopia is that the Bodhi started out with noble intentions, but as the years progressed they began to become greedy and power hungry. By the time Leo is nearly an official adult the Bodhi have taken considerably from the families, so it is becoming increasingly tough to survive. For this reason, a rebellion is beginning to form called the Benjamin’s. Leo first learned about this group from a man who lives down the street from him who used to be a member of the Bodhi. This man left because he felt as if what the group was becoming was unethical. He exposes much of this information to Leo. This older male character is significant because he leads to Leo’s captivity later on. Despite having knowledge of the Bodhi, Leo has become complacent with life because

Additionally, it is a known saying that it is bad luck when a cat passes you trail and since a lion is a type of cat i thought it tied in perfectly. Lastly, a lion is a symbol of strength which helps us get out of our

Furthermore, since lion cubs are thought to be born dead until they are brought to life by the lion roaring over his cubs on the third day, Leo also symbolizes the Resurrection; God wakes Jesus after three days in his tomb. By drawing directly upon core events in Christianity, the lion directly teaches the Word of God through nature and contains special meaning. Moreover, Leo’s other natures provide examples of men should carry their lives: just as Leo will not attack a prostrate man, allows for captive men to depart, and is not quick to anger, people should be patient, slow to anger, and quickly forgiving of

Majestic, noble, and brave, this famous iconic wild animal on the planet has captivated the people since the beginning of time. They are most feared by other animals thus, known as the king of the jungle – no other than the lions. Member of the genus Panthera, the lion is one of the big cats in the Felidae family.

The lion perfectly describes the characteristic of authority. The lion's large size, full mane, and resonating roar strike terror in the hearts of other animals who call the African Plains. Even their nickname "the king of the jungle" illustrates their supremacy. The lion was well-respected during ancient times and even worshipped as a god by several early civilizations. For example, the Egyptians had the lion-themed goddess Sekhmet which means “The Powerful One” who was the goddess of war and Tefnut who was the goddess of moisture or rain. Also the Romans had a lion-like god called Chnubis. Chnubis is described as a snake with a lion head. Since the sphinx, a combination of a body of a lion with the head of a man,

It is the seventh zodiac constellation. The mythology of Libra comes from the ancient Babylonians and Greeks. Long ago, they saw Libra as part Scorpius. Libra was seen by them as the claws of Scorpius. Another ancient society also saw Libra. The Romans to them was the goddess of justice. The ancient people related Libra with balance. This is because on the fall equinox the Sun crosses over Libra and this happens when there are equal hours in the day and the night. The Hindus used stars in this zodiac constellation as a guide for their calendar. “Alpha Libra is a wide double which culminates at 9pm June 17th” Libra is one of the last zodiac constellations to be discovered. Sagittarius was first seen in India and Egypt but not analyzed or named until it could be seen by other ancient
