LEO FULL MOON- The Me vs. the We

Full Moon February 12th at 24 degrees

The Full Moon always represents a culmination or completion energy. Let's review what has brought us to this point. What intentions were set into motion two weeks ago during the Aquarius New Moon at 9 degrees on January 29th? What has swiftly unfolded since the Aquarian ruler Uranus left retrograde and stationed direct in Taurus on January 30th? And more importantly, what has dropped into our higher conscious awareness this week?

• 2/9: Sun conjunct Mercury at 20°- Cazimi affect, the ah-ha moment

• 2/10: Mercury in Aquarius square Uranus direct at 23° Taurus

• 2/11: Sun in Aquarius square Uranus direct at 23° Taurus

As we review these aspects that have been unfolding before this lunation and setting the stage for growth, what breakthroughs in our perceived reality have started to unfold? How can this new emotional awareness lead to a more empowered sense of Self?

The Leo Full Moon is opposite the Sun in Aquarius, conjunct Mercury, with powerful Pluto looming in the far reaches of the sign and opposing the Moon. Leo is ruled by the Sun which represents our authentic Spirit; what brings us joy and honors our presence. The opposite end of this axis of our emotional self and others is our community connection and how we co-collaborate to create a better world. This representation of our personal expression opposite the societal expectations is set for a radical upgrade under the influence of this bold lunar culmination. This is due to the fixed sign T-square from our luminaries to Uranus in the grounded Earth sign of Taurus. We can expect shocking information leading to disruptive and chaotic occurrences to come in, literally and metaphorically. Personally and on a global scale. We can feel the Earth move under our feet as our sense of security and self-sustainability is radically shaken. These internal jolts of intense emotion can provide a creative opening as a higher understanding of possibilities and liberation fill the once solid yet now empty spaces. The highest vibration of available energies can return us to a place of sovereign power and authenticity as the awakening comes in. The Aquarius Sun influence can illuminate the areas we are disassociating out of fear of not being fully seen. Finding the elevated understanding of our need to balance these polarities is of the essence. Leo energy is a go big or go home archetype that can now support a return to the sovereign spark of our Spirit personified.

This radical Leo Full Moon can provide an emotional shift in how we see ourselves. If we can open our minds to the higher perspectives we can operate in the higher frequencies of personal expression and healthy confidence. Remember, pride cometh before the fall! Let's resign to rise independently as well as together. A powerful change can occur within as a result of the overwhelming chaos. Personal alchemy 101 is the ability to control the chaos and if there were ever a sign with the power to do so, rest assured it is Leo. The magic is contingent on our openness to new solutions from new perspectives. How have our values shifted and where do we need to upgrade our expression of sovereign power? Are we open to the bigger picture that can support an ability to operate with integrity, from a place beyond our current human understanding? Who has the capacity to accept us as we truly are?

KEY background influence:

Mars, the planet of our ego identity and driven desires is currently retrograde in the Moon ruled sign of Cancer. During this Full Moon, Mars creates a Water trine to Saturn (now moving forward) in the sign of Pisces. We are prepping for a new vision quest as Mars leaves retrograde and stations direct on the 23rd of this month. This has been a long, personal endeavor of preparing to move forward from a place of emotional maturity. In the background, there is a palpable energetic signature of sensing as opposed to knowing. How do we learn to fully trust ourselves and our emotional soul body? The influence of Saturn is a serious unveiling of karmic conditioning and past timelines of emotional patterns that we are growing beyond. This aspect is deeply personal in nature and seeks to obtain long-term emotional stability. The Pisces area of our chart is supporting our future visions and with the lunar Noth Node of Destiny and Neptune also present, we want something we can believe in. Clearing our old emotional baggage is key to self-empowerment moving forward.
