Take Centerstage



Excerpt from ZodiacSpells by Lexa Roséan

A spell that will draw all the attention you desire! Perfect for careers in show business.

Ingredients needed: pumpkin seeds

The Leo always attracts the spotlight whether desired or not.

Jacqueline Kennedy Onasis is a perfect example of a Leo always standing in the sun. It’s no wonder she always donned those big black sunglasses! Paparazzi scrambled to capture her image and bring every private moment to light. The whole world was obsessed with watching her. Marilyn Monroe was born a Gemini but she died a Leo (Aug 4) and her death propelled her image forever into the public consciousness. Fidel Castro is another Leo whose fame and rule have not diminished. Each year he remains constant as the rising sun even after the fall of communism. The Leo can not help but take center stage!

Scattering pumpkin seeds around a yellow candle is the Leo spell for success. Pumpkin seeds represent fertility and will help spread the word about you or reinforce your positive image. Yellow or gold is the color of the sun, (your ruling planet)and represents light and attention. Carve your name into the candle and surround with the seeds. When the candle finishes burning, gather the seeds and toss them outside into the grass on a sunny day. This magical action will help to center and spread your success. The Leo can perform this spell on any Sunday to increase their natural starlike quality.

Other signs pursuing careers in show business or needing to draw attention to themselves in order to achieve success should perform this ritual when the Sun is in Leo (July 23 - August 22).
