This Egyptian zodiac card features Geb, the earth god of ancient Egyptian mythology. The illustration presents him in a uniquely approachable way. He's depicted with dark wavy hair, wearing a green feather headdress and traditional Egyptian collar jewelry in turquoise and orange tones, along with a simple white loincloth. The setting shows him in a temple with vibrant wall paintings of Egyptian deities and hieroglyphic columns. Geb was the "God of the Earth" in Egyptian mythology, literally representing the physical ground beneath people's feet. He was often depicted lying beneath the sky goddess Nut, with their separation creating the space for life to exist. As an earth deity, he was associated with vegetation, fertility, and the nurturing aspects of the land. People born under this sign (February 12-29, August 20-31) are described as having traits that reflect Geb's connection to the earth and its nurturing qualities.
