The Leo Zodiac sign got its name from the myth of Nemean, a fearsome lion in Greek mythology. The Nemean Lion was a monstrous beast with impenetrable skin sent by Hera to terrorize the city of Nemea. 

Hercules, as part of his twelve labors, was tasked to kill this beast. After a fierce battle, Hercules succeeded and wore the lion’s hide as a cloak. Zeus honored the lion’s might by placing it in the sky as the constellation Leo.
