Leo Birthstones
Leo is the fixed sign of the fire element. Heart warming Leo starts on 21/22 July - 20/21 August. Leo is ruled by the Sun, so Leo birthstones come in bright colours - yellow and red, just like the Sun - Red rubies. Another important crystal for Leo is Sunstone which speckles just like the Sun. As the signs do not start on the same day and time every year, it is important to check ourfree birth chart if you were born on the cusp (the beginning) of a sign and check where the Sun was at the time of birth.
