The Lion of Judah: What It Really Means in Rastafari

Discover the deeper meaning behind the Lion of Judah and why the lion remains one of the most powerful symbols in Rastafari. This documentary explores the lion’s biblical origins, its connection to Ethiopia and Highly Selassie, and its role as a symbol of African sovereignty, spiritual authority, courage, protection, and resistance against Babylon. It also examines how the lion appears in Rastafar eye art, locs, reggae culture, and modern merchandise and asks whether commercialisation is weakening its sacred meaning.
