The Sun entered Leo II, The Laurel Wreath, at 3:09 am EDT on 2 August 2022. Associated with temporary honors and short-term successes that don't translate well to long-term achievements, the season has the planet Jupiter as its administrator — a kind of fun-loving, generous master of ceremonies that likes to hand out participation trophies to all and sundry, and thank everyone in his speeches.
The ancient Egyptians and the Egyptianized Greeks of Alexandria saw these ten days as having a different ruler — the crying Isis, mourning over her husband. Her tears, they said, filled the Nile valley to its highest possible point; these ten days at the beginning of August were often the height of the Inundation, the annual flooding of the Nile River.
