Happy Birthday to the Zodiac sign of Leo!  Do you walk like an Egyptian, love to say Hatshepsut when you sneeze, and love all things Pharoah? We thought you might, and so do we, which is why when we found a range of Egyptian Zodiac Necklaces a few years ago, we decided that we would definitely have to stock them as a totally cool and awesome alternative to the usual Zodiac signs.

The Egyptian dates are different to the traditional Zodiac, so there is some overlap between the signs. Our Anubis Necklace, for example, is mostly for Leo but also overlaps with the early Virgo dates.

Each Pendant has it own "meaning" to the sign which is printed on the themed card packed with the Necklace. So Anubis is the "God of the Future" and anyone born during these dates is said to be sympathetic, sensitive, strong and spirited - which just about covers every Leo I have ever known!

The whole range of Pendants, with different Gods and Goddesses, are made from lead-free fine Pewter, are etched with Egyptian heiroglyphs, and the associated birthdates on the back. The enamel shimmery golden colour represents the Sun God, Ra. And they come with a nice black cotton adjustable Necklace which you young trendies can wear as a choker, or just dangling ... and you can find all of our Egyptian Gifts & Jewellery here.

So "Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh" as they say, and continue walking in a sideways manner with your hands at right angles to your wrists. I must admit, it's a bit difficult carrying the shopping in this position - it's a wonder the ancients didn't starve ...
