Full Moon in Leo: Courage to stand out

This month’s Full Moon in courageous, flamboyant Leo occurs on February 5 at 1.28 p.m. EST.

Full Moons are always about relationships.

The Sun and the Moon are opposing each other at the time of a Full Moon. The energies are pulling into two different directions: my family vs my career, myself vs others, my needs vs others’ needs.
Restoring the balance between opposing forces is called for.

This Leo Full Moon is speaking in a conversation of tension with the planet of liberation and unexpected changes Uranus in Taurus.

This energy is rather uncomfortable and can provoke unexpected changes, even endings of some sort in the Leo part of your chart.
Especially if you have any personal planets or significant chart points at around 16 degrees of Leo.

Make sure you stay cool, calm and collected if things suddenly dramatically change and are not going according to plan.

This energy is pushing us out of our comfort zone so we can connect with our core desires and finally have the courage to stand out from the crowd.

Leo is all about following our heart and being creative.

Don’t be afraid to express how you feel.

Now is the time to acknowledge your most cherished heart’s desires and finally do something about it!


Before we dive in, be sure to check your Ascendant, Moon, and Sun signs to get a full picture. When you read a horoscope for your Sun sign only, you only get a glimpse of what’s in store for your personal and professional life. Your Sun sign (related to the day you were born) might be an important component of your identity, but it’s only a small fraction of the whole story. Very often, your Ascendant (Rising sign) is the most accurate representation of you as an individual, as it rules your first house of the self and therefore has the biggest impact on your personal horoscope.
