On February 23rd, the Moon joins in the Sun and Mercury and moves into Pisces. When the Moon is in Pisces, our psychic abilities and spirituality is highlighted. This is a time of exploring the depths of our psyche and swimming deep into the subconscious of our dreams and intuition.
​
When the Moon is in Pisces, this can be either a gift or a curse – depending on how you direct the energies that are influenced upon you. This can be a time where you slip deeper into prayer, meditation, and exploring your subconscious, or it can be a time of escapism where you crave mind-altering substances that help you avoid the harshness of reality and enter a trance/dream like state. Many who are born into this natal placement are either strong healers and psychics, or they face a lifetime of drug abuse – either themselves, or the ones they love.

The need to help those less fortunate and to overlook those red flags are also heightened. Empaths receive a boost to feeling the outside world and its pain, and so the urge to help is much stronger than it typically is, as is the need to run away from it and to numb the pain felt.

The Pisces Moon encourages us to be at our most spiritual, as the boundaries between the realms, and the veil between this World and the spirit World is thinner, and so it allows for the spiritual world to be easily accessible.

This is a time to use that urge of escapism towards our artistic or creative projects – to get lost in a creative bubble and to channel our craft directly from the divine. This is also a time to encourage a deeper meditation and to reach out towards your spirit guides and team of ancestors who walk along our higher paths with us.

On February 9th we are welcomed with a powerful Leo Full Moon that puts our focus onto our inner child, leadership issues/roles and in finding conclusions with business or creative projects. The Leo Moon is opposing the Aquarius Sun, and so it puts a major emphasis finding creative ways to resolve old issues within the areas mentioned.

Typically, when the Moon is in Leo, drama is usually the main theme – but not in the sense that you would think when drama is associated with trouble. While there is always a tendency to overact in situations that take our shine away, this is a time of grand displays, impressionable entrances and even the need for attention or to be applauded for our hard work and efforts. This is a time to take pride in who we are and what we have to offer.

This regal Moon is all about coming out into the spotlight and taking in the admiration and applause from others. Our shine becomes brighter when we see the light within the eyes of others over what we have expressed to them.

With Valentine’s Day just a few days away, and this Moon coming in the weekend before, we do need to be mindful of splurging over budget for the ones we love and want to shower with our affections. Again, things will be done on a grander scale and often Leo tends to go overboard. Think big balloons, bouquets, chocolates and all the things done in excess when browsing the seasonal isle of your market store.
​
The way we express our adoration and affection for others is always more meaningful and also much larger when the Moon is in Leo. Aside from buying out the entire stock of Valentine’s Day at the store, we are inspired to sing, write poetry, and even indulge in a things romantic, which allows for our hearts to act upon the love you have for the ones you hold dear.

The Queen of Pentacles compliments the Leo Moon with the loving support she offers to those who work hard on their dreams. She blesses you with the right tools, resources, and showers you with her adoring gaze like a proud mother shouting the loudest at her child’s school play. She wants you to win because she feels your drive, determination and your passion in what you are doing.

Associated with the sign Capricorn, the Queen of Pentacles I feel represents Jupiter, Saturn, and Pluto which are all in Capricorn at the time of the Leo Full Moon. This is a time of support, self-discipline and being resourceful in reaching our most treasured goals. She also encourages you to love what you do, because that is when you can put the pedal to the metal without breaking a sweat.
​
Like the Full Moon in Leo, the Queen of Pentacles puts a major emphasis completing projects and reorganizing things in our life that need more order for the sake of staying on task and getting it done right.

The prior Aquarius New Moon was focused on breaking out of a rut and aligning to our Higher Selves so we can live in authenticity, allowing us to grasp onto our unique tools, skills, and higher sense of purpose that serves humanity. We all have something beautiful to offer the World, and in finding that, is through finding ourselves.
​
For the Full Moon in Leo, we are encouraged to take pride in ourselves, what we have to offer the World, and to express our truth through a more regal and powerful manner. This is a time of channeling our creativity and focusing on our higher goals so we can allow this massive boost of energy that the Leo Moon provides to aid in completing projects and adding a special touch that allows them to stand out.

​This two-page article of the Leo Full Moon energies includes ritual instructions provided in a step-by-step guide to help boost your confidence.

​ARIES
Reconsider
The Leo Full Moon compliments you very well, Aries. Being that Venus is also within your sign this month, you feel more in touch with your heart. With that said, you might be reconsidering certain things you were seeking in the past – perhaps you were chasing after an ideal or trying to take an old behavioral pattern into a new level of experience. You have to leave that behind, and the Leo Full Moon illuminates the reasons why.
 
TAURUS
No
The Full Moon in Leo is an opposition that you might not be able to get over. This is a time of laying low. Just because sometimes feels right, might not be that it is so – you need to reconsider and allow logic to take the lead.
 
GEMINI
Let Go
The Full Moon in Leo asks that you let go of something with grace and celebrate the freeing affect that comes from doing so. You were confined and your growth was restricted. It is time to break out of the cycle that has kept you in such a small space and to venture out into a much larger one.
 
CANCER
Go – The Time is right
The Leo Full Moon is a time of movement. While there are things within your life that do not need your involvement right now, there are other things which do – the things that bring you joy and take you down memory lane with fondness.
 
LEO
Let Go
The Full Moon in Leo wants you to let go of something that might be easier said than done. You are entering a new phase in your life starting this month where you will be reaping the rewards and benefits from all of the hard work you have been putting in. You cannot bring a mindset set on lack, or an accustom to struggling into a phase where you are to reap abundance – you don’t want to block your rewards, Leo.
 
VIRGO
Choose a New Direction
Something hasn’t been working, Virgo, and it has been stressing you out to the max. The Leo Full Moon is going to shine a light on this problem and offer solutions that you can apply, ensuring that this problem ceases to exist or cycle back through. This may require for you to leave something behind, or to walk away from something that you have been struggling with. It may not be easy at first, but in time you will find that it has brought you the freedom you had wanted for so long.
 
LIBRA
This is a Sign
The Leo Full Moon offers you a sign – you may receive this through an uproar of synchronicities, or even through what someone has said. Many cards for your monthly Tarotscope had spoken of a rollercoaster of events that might leave you a bit derailed and shocked, but in the end, you will see that these needed to happen for the sake of peace and balance.
 
SCORPIO
No
The Leo Full Moon may have you feeling a bit aggressive, putting the ego on display and ruffling up your feathers when it comes to a conflict you are dealing with someone close to you. Walk away, Scorpio and do not engage. Your expansion as mentioned in your monthly Tarotscope will come from your ability to choose peace over starting a war.
 
SAGITTARIUS
You’re Going in the Right Direction
The Full Moon in Leo blesses you with the notion that you are going in the right direction and everything is as it should be. You may experience an increase of abundance or blessings around this time, to reveal that you are exactly where you need to be.
 
CAPRICORN
Go – the Time is Right
The Leo Full Moon gives you the green light to start doing something you have been considering for some time now. Change is not easy, but it is the only constant in life and the best thing to promote the shift that you need. Get it done, Capricorn.
 
AQUARIUS
Choose a New Direction
When everyone says to go right, instead make a left, Aquarius. The Leo Full Moon illuminates the beautiful freedom you have when it comes to choosing your own direction in the course you want to take. Great things are happening for you this month, and it is all due from you walking to the beat of your own drum rather than following someone else’s tune.
 
PISCES
Yes
The Full Moon in Leo presents a major gift to you – something that you had been wanting for a very long time. You might be thinking it is too good to be true, or that there has to be some sort of catch. Cancel those thoughts out of your head and venture towards this gift!
