There's a magic to how the world transforms each month—the light shifts, the colors change, and a new energy emerges. As creatives, we're constantly inspired by these seasonal rhythms, and as color lovers, we delight in the unique color palette that every month has to offer.

That's why today, we're thrilled to launch our new Zodiac Palette Series! This year-long journey will celebrate the energy, characteristics, and color story of each season through an astrological lens. As each Zodiac rolls around, we'll be releasing a special color palette designed using the Palette Scout deck. We've formatted the color palettes into free downloadable backgrounds for your phone and computer, so you can carry colorful inspiration with you wherever you go. 

We're starting things off by welcoming Leo season. 

The Leo Mood:

Planet: Sun

Element: Fire

Flower: Sunflower

Gemstone: Ruby 

Recommended craft for a summer afternoon : Wildcat Needlepoint Patterns

Vibes: Golden hour shadows, flower fields, fireworks, overflowing bowls of cherries

The Leo Palette:

Daylily 3 and 4, Flame 2 and 3, Hibiscus 1

Leos are known for their warmth, affection, and loyalty, and this analogous palette shines with the radiance of the sun and a Leo’s fierce heart. The colors in an analogous palette sit tight on the color wheel, and create a feeling of cohesion and harmony — only fitting for a Leo who stays close to the pack, and remains loyal to their pride.

Download these images and use them as digital backgrounds for a dose of Leo energy all year long!
