Full Moon in Leo

Natural Chart / Whole Houses 

A Full Moon occurs when the Sun and Moon occupy the same degree of opposite signs of the zodiac.  As you can see from the chart above, the Moon is at 20° Leo and the Sun is at 20° Aquarius forming an opposition creating a dynamic of challenging one another; something is being split or divided. This also being a Lunar Eclipse, the effects are pretty much the same but only stronger. However, as the eclipse subsides the opportunity for healing and balance will return. The Lunar Eclipse acts like a reset button on our emotions. 

The Big Picture 

Leo is a proud, possessive, and territorial sign; while Aquarius is detached and altruistic.  So we have a dynamic here of Me vs. Them or what I want in opposition to what we need.  Full Moons are thought to bring completion or endings and with the possessiveness of that Leo energy at play here this can sometimes feel like someone is taking something away from us, or depriving us of something.  This is a pattern we can see play out or a large scale by watching the news, paying attention to what is going on on social media and in the lives of our family and friends; or on a small scale by examining our own natal charts to see where the Full Moon is taking place there.

The Personal Touch 

To understand how the Full Moon in Leo affects us an individuals we need to see where 20° Leo is in our own natal charts.  For example, 20° Leo in my natal chart is on the cusp of the 10th House, which is known as the public sector of our charts. One-hundred and eighty degrees across from the 10th house is the 4th house where the Sun is transiting at 20° Aquarius.  Let's break it down.... 

Moon + Leo + 10th House 

I feel proud and possessive of my career and reputation 

VS. 

Sun + Aquarius + 4th House 

I am rebellious, detached, and altruistic about my home and traditions 

With the 10th house vs 4th house dynamic at play, I may feel a divide between my public and private aspects of my life. It could indicate that career and reputation is at odds with my root sand traditions. This is interesting because as I write this I have recently found that someone has attempted to steal Carolina Conjure from me and set themselves up in their own business with a facebook page and a website. At first, I tried to handle the matter privately but I was forced to appeal to my friends and fans to ask that the page be reported. 

Aspects 

Aspects, or relationships between planets, is another dimension of astrological interpretation that should be considered. For example, in my own chart the transit moon at 20° Leo is making a sextile to my Natal Uranus at 21° Libra. 

A sextile in a type of soft (easy) aspect in which the energy of one planet supports or coaxes the urge of the other and it is aid to bring opportunities. Usually the slower planets has the affect on the faster planet. Let us use our keywords to discover how Transit Moon sextile Natal Uranus might manifest.

I rebel supports and coaxes I feel 

When transit Uranus sextiles the Moon you feel like breaking out of your routine. You want to do things that are different and new. You feel more confident in your individuality and not only are you comfortable standing out from the crowd, the last thing you want to do right now is to blend in with the crowd.
