Full Moon in Leo, 2/5/2023


On February 5th at 10:28 AM PST the Moon is full in the sign of Leo. This is a culmination of all the hopes and wishes cast on the New Moon in Leo back on July 28, 2022. That was a time where Summer was strong and creativity was potentially peaking! Now we look back at what we dreamed of doing, what we possibly wanted to manifest in our lives dealing with our loved ones and how we support them through their own becoming. We were encouraged to see ourselves as creators in our life, and find our own power, talents, and strength.


Leo is ruled by the Sun, the luminary that supports our solar system. Leo the lion is the king of the jungle, and likewise Leo rules their domain. The energy is strong, regal, with a sense of authority, usually well deserved. Or so they think. Leos are the heart of the zodiac, and can be very loving and generous. Leo is the second fixed sign of the zodiac, being the second month of the summer season. It is when it‘s hot, really summer, solid and sure. It‘s when you want to plant yourself in a lawn chair with a cool drink and just sit. But when this Sun sign is ruling the Full Moon, it lends itself to all things emotional, what we’re sensitive to, what we want for security. In this sign, rather than lean on others, we look to ourselves to become who we were born to be.


Have you followed the path set up for yourself back in July? At that time the Sun was strong, giving us the energy needed to accomplish our goals. But now in the middle of Winter, we can imagine this energy when sitting by the fireplace, or a bonfire, warming ourselves through the Dreamtime of Winter. We can focus on our own creative potentials, improving them through reading, studying and practicing our crafts. Living with the seasons in the most productive way to our goals. We have some planetary influences helping us along.


Every Full Moon we have the Sun and Moon in opposition. This time the Sun is in Aquarius and the Moon is in Leo. Two fixed signs, strong in their own ways. Aquarius is all about our friends, groups we belong to, and common beliefs and/or purpose where teamwork is required. It is a sign of the individual within a group. Leo is more about the self and growth as an individual. So these areas of our lives are under the magnifier asking us to balance these opposites. On this occasion, the planet Uranus in the sign of Taurus creates a T-Square between the two. With every T-Square, two planets or luminaries are opposite each other, then a third one forms a 90-degree square with both of these luminaries or planets. If you look at an astrological chart that involves this aspect, you can see how it appears like a T when this takes place, giving it its name. The planet that is at the bottom of the T, in this case Uranus, shows the way to work with these fixed energies. Uranus inspires excitement, change, and discovery, and cannot tolerate a routine or lifestyle that offers little in the way of surprise or challenge. Excitable, spontaneous, and enthusiastic about anything new, you may be perceived by others as being too impulsive, especially in personal relationships at this time. It won’t be easy for you to make or keep commitments, since you don't know how you will be feeling from one moment to the next. Emotional freedom is key now. Your domestic life can be very unstable now due to these transits, but your focus will be in the right place thanks to Uranus. Keep in mind you sit on the throne of power in your life, and keep an open and flexible mind.


The Sun and Moon have favorable aspects to Mars in Gemini. This planet that rules our physical energy brings us positive, vital, active energy. In the sign of Gemini we wish to communicate our deepest feelings and do something about them. We can deep dive into our thoughts and consider clearly the direction to follow in order to be most fulfilled. And, as of February 11th, Mercury moves into the sign of Aquarius, broadening our horizons with the help of this Air Sign. Our mind and communications will take a profound turn from


Capricorn to Aquarius, helping us to elevate our thinking into a more humanitarian and purposeful direction. We can use all of these powers to help us on our path to enlightenment and our fullest potential. Take the initiative to clear the past and take the less beaten path to success.
