The Nemean lion
The Nemean lion had a hide that neither arrows nor swords could pierce. Defeating it was the first of the twelve labours of Heracles, who strangled it with his hands and then wore its skin. Zeus put the lion in the sky.
Leo is one of the few constellations that resemble what they represent: a head shaped like a sickle and a long body. Its brightest star, Regulus, means "little king" and marks the lion's heart. Its ruler is the Sun, and tradition links the sign with loyalty and the wish to shine.
Myths come in several versions. This is one of the most widespread.
