The Leo Cards and Their Food Archetypes
Soufflé - Strength
This isn’t a card about brute force or dominance. The soufflé asks us to explore a deeper kind of strength - the inner alchemy that comes from gentleness, patience and knowing when to let things rise. {Where is softness more powerful than force in my life right now?}
Summer Fruit - The Sun
Juicy ripe and deeply nourishing. This card reminds us that joy is not frivolous, it’s essential. The Sun in Leo encourages a bold ripeness of expression. {What feels ripe for celebration? How can I let myself be seen?}
Roasted Mallow - Ace of Wands
A fresh flame. An invitation to spark up something new and delicious. Say yes to something that excites you even if it makes you sweat a little. {What are you excited to light up , even if it burns a little messy?}
Chili - Five of Wands
This card has some kick. The Five of Wands represents spirited competition, creative tension and a little bit of ego in the kitchen. Spicy doesn’t have to mean exclusive. There’s enough to go around. {How can I use a little heat as fuel instead of a fight?}
Omelette - Six of Wands
The Six of Wands in Leo season is a victory lap. There’s an art to receiving applause. And it’s simple, really. {What praise do I need to receive instead of deflecting?}
Lobster - Seven of Wands
A card of healthy boundaries and sticking to your guns. This Leo season you might feel tested or like you have to prove yourself. But the Seven of Wands reminds us: sometimes the most powerful flex is just standing your ground. You’ve earned your place at the table. {What’s worth holding your ground for, even if it’s not popular?}
Ratatouille - Page of Wands
This card reminds us that joy is a skill. The Page of Wands is the wise inner child learning how to taste test, leap and make messes without shame. {Where is curiosity leading you right now?}
Paella - King of Wands
Big flavor. Big presence. Big vision. The King of Wands is about leadership that’s infused with passion, purpose and charisma. Cook for a crowd, light a fire under your creative vision and trust that your boldness will inspire others to follow your lead. {How can I be bold and grounded in how I share my gifts?}.
