FULL MOON IN LEO

Leo is the ruler of true love and with its full Moon, there is an old folklore tradition that says you can find out your true love under its light. Before going to bed, stare at the full Moon, braid your hair together and focus on love. Go to sleep without speaking a word to anyone (no texting either). According to legend, you will dream of the one you will be with.

“The Moon is plump with positive energy. There are no negative aspects to this Moon. Yeah! This is a celebration Moon. A reward for the hard work and intense striving that you have done.

“The Moon is coupled with Jupiter in Leo. They are opposing the Sun in Aquarius. Uranus is the modern ruler of Aquarius. He is in a positive position with both lights (the Sun and the Moon.)

“There is more good news here. Jupiter and Uranus are in a fantastic formation with each other. This positive energy is magnified at the Full Moon. This could be one of the best Full Moons of the year.

 “Jupiter is king of the gods. He is the largest planet in our solar system. Jupiter expands whatever he touches. He makes you feel good. This is an excellent Full Moon to be creative. You can expand your business. Your work may improve. Your creativity can grow.”

“…The Leo Full Moon is in a trine (beneficial aspect) with Uranus. You could make positive changes in your personal life. For instance, you may encounter new relationships, new friends and/or a new love. New friendships formed now may encourage you to be your authentic Self.”

“…You could change your personal habits like quit smoking. This would increase your health, well-being and vitality. You could make positive personal changes in your home. This would make your life easier and more effortless…”

“The best part of Leo is the inner child. You are to nourish and protect your childlike innocence. You are to be open to new ideas and fresh perspectives.

“Be curious about life. Be engaged in the magic of the moment. Be in your heart.

“Let go of the need to criticize and judge. This will kill your creativity. Instead, allow yourself to make mistakes. It is the only way to learn what works and what does not work for you.

“The magic word is ‘try. ‘Try something different. Try and observe your mind and heart open.”

“This Full Moon occurs at 15* of two fixed signs, called a critical degree.  15* of the fixed signs ties into the Law of Karma—this gives the potential for evolved souls to fulfill our destiny and teach others.  What a blessing for us now, since this is exactly what we are being called up to do.

“The Sabian symbol for the Sun at 15* Aquarius is: Two Love Birds singing and flying joyfully around one another.  This symbolspeaks to the blessings we receive and the bliss we feel when we connect with our Spirit/Self. 

“There’s a sense of free-spirited enjoyment, a faith in happy outcomes and the ability to speak from Love and the heart.  When we know and live our higher Self and ideals, we live in bliss.

“The Sabian symbol for the Moon at 15* Leo is: A loud and colorful circus parade snakes through city streets.  What a beautiful image of fun, magic and mystery invading our cultural consciousness! 

“It’s hard to repress the energy of life seen here as a circus parade, even in the midst of constraints and duty.  This symbolizes a call to bring our creative expressions of these mysterious life energies back into the culture.  We need to tell our stories to the world! 

“This is a noisy Full Moon! The Moon is conjunct Jupiter, loud and proud in Leo and trine to Uranus. It feels as though someone is sounding a trumpet – like Gabriel announcing the day has come.

“It’s a call, a wish, a dream, a desire. Leo is the sign of self expression, creativity, children. Leo loves to be seen and with the Moon conjunct Jupiter, it would be hard to miss this show.

“Uranus is pressing for a dazzling finale, a sweeping bow and a brilliant smile. But maybe you aren’t sure if you want to take centre stage. Those old feelings of failure, stage fright, performance anxiety come back to hit you in waves.

“The Moon is at the apex of a boomerang yod with Pluto in Capricorn sextile Chiron in Pisces at the base. There’s a chance here to heal your demons – the ones who tell you that you will fall flat on your face in front of everyone. The ones that tell you everyone will laugh. These are the voices that whisper even when the crowd is applauding and telling you how well you did.

“…Because the little child in all of us wants to be praised. And those of us who were perhaps criticised too harshly as children, who grew up not feeling good enough, these old demons are hard to exorcise. Their insidious whispers resound even after applause dies away.”

“…It’s about being spectacular by just being who you are. Pluto quincunx to the Full Moon has an abiding fear of being found out or caught out. Jupiter is saying believe in yourself. Chiron feels vulnerable with all those people staring at him.

“There’s a tendency to go overboard in an effort to make an impression, to over-promise because you think that people need more than you have to give. The trick is to speak your truth. Give only what you have but be generous with it. Let people take from it what they will.

“Take five people to the theatre, each will come out with their own understanding of the show. Life is pretty much like this too. You can only do your best and then the rest is in everyone else’s hands.

“At this Full Moon, this is a time to celebrate your achievements. Maybe you need to take the spotlight and face those fears. Perhaps there is something you’ve been wanting to do but it could be uncomfortable. This Moon says give it a try – in fact, it’s shouting.

“‘Go on, you can do it!’

“Uranus would love to show off your unique talent or perspective. Bearing in mind that Uranus is the ruler of opposite sign Aquarius, there may be an element of shaking things up, doing something you don’t normally do which effectively shines a light on you.

“Perhaps you decide to put yourself out there, despite what everyone else might think. It’s scary (Pluto) and it might hurt (Chiron) but with protective Jupiter nearby, you may walk off that life stage feeling just that bit bigger than when you walked on.

“Listen for the fanfare.
Take a bow.”
