Leo Rules the spine, the back, and the heart. The heart is associated with warm emotions, the back with courage. Leos have robust constitutions, supple spines, and good coordination. They are usually excellent dancers and athletes. Leos often push themselves so hard that they suffer strain from overexertion and nerves. Their upper back tires more easily and they are also subject to pains and pressure around the heart. Leos are noted for their longevity.
Leo's ruler, the Sun, has always been associated with the heart, back, and spinal column. It also influences the spleen and the entire body's vitality. The sign of Leo is characterized by growth, vitality, and good health. As a rule, Leos live healthy lives, however, they must learn to slow down in later years to avoid the risk of heart attack.
Leo's cell salt is magnesium phosphate, which keeps the motor nerves in top functioning order and is also necessary to the formation of the skeletal structure. Foods that contain this element so important to Leos are whole wheat and rye products, almonds, walnuts, sunflower seeds, figs, lemons, apples, peaches, coconut, rice, seafood, beets, asparagus, and egg yolk. Foods rich in iron, such as spinach, raisins, and dates, are recommended for Leo. Plums, pears, and oranges can help reduce heart strain. Leos should consciously cut down on fatty foods.
Leo is also a fire sign. Fire rules the function of internal combustion or digestion—the burning up or absorption of food. Fire also purifies the system by burning off toxins, viruses, bacteria and fungus. Fire signs easily fight disease. Their constitution naturally tends toward high temperatures. and you must learn to eat correctly and cut down on fatty foods.
Leos with Excess Fire
Excess fire can be impatient and angry, or internalizes it into hypertension, heart problems, ulcers or inflammations. Excess fire is brought back into balance by foods that are cold, moist and heavy, or slow-burning foods that ground energy. If you have excess fire than you should preferably eat grains and root vegetables and avoid red meat or spicy food.
Leos with Low Fire
When your fire is low, it may be hard to burn off or fight disease. Digestion and absorption of food are inadequate. Eat foods that are hot, light, dry and aromatic. Avoid cold foods. Specifically you should eat lemon, yoghurt, mustard and avoid dairy products and meat
