- Sign: Leo
- Colour: Gold
- Element: Fire
- Stone: Rhodochrosite
- Metal: Gold
- Planet: Sun
The Week of Authority. The Leo 1 period takes Authority as it's central image. This period can be likened to the beginning of the mature adult life as an individual turns thirty. Confidence can run high at this point if the doubts and uncertainty of the first Saturn return (age twenty-eight or twenty-nine) have been resolved. Beginning the process of establishing oneself as an authority in a given field can be a focus at this time and an absorbing task.
