Full Moon in Leo at 9 degrees, 28th January 2021. Radiant Golden Light.

This Full Moon in Leo is a cosmic gift to expand our heart energy and joy.

A rare celestial event takes place at this Full Moon in Leo as Jupiter is conjoined to the Sun at exactly the same degree. The last time this took place was in Nov 1994.

It feels like a cosmic sign, one of hope that is lighting up the path in the darkness, bringing the promise of brighter and better times to come. Jupiter shines bright together with the Sun in Aquarius and together they are illuminating and expanding the heart consciousness of the Leo full Moon in opposition, lighting up our highest ideals with enthusiasm and joy.

Jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system and the most beneficial planet of all. Jupiter expands everything he touches and bestows us with more fortune, happiness, joy and optimism.

Many of us have felt depleted of our inner spark, creativity and motivation in these testing times. Let yourself be re-inspired by tapping into the vibrant energy of this Full Moon that will help to fuel your passion and joy once again, especially in the areas of creativity and self-expression. Strong healing energies are available now, as we are reminded that our soul is a source of unconditional love, courage, strength, wisdom, happiness and joy.

The Sun is the ruler of Leo and just as the Sun, we each have an eternal flame of light burning inside of us. We can let that flame burn even brighter now. We now have a powerful opportunity to generate and create even more love, joy, passion, open-heartedness as well as a love for life.

We can tap into the universal and cosmic love that is all around us. By shining our light and love to others, we create and receive even more. And rekindle the simmering, slow-burning flame into an inferno of passion and joy for life.

Our power of attraction is at its strongest when we shine. So shine and attract, what your heart desires. Whether it be love, happiness or good luck. We have the power now, to attract those things into our life.

Venus in an exact conjunction with Pluto, ensures we will find support for our ventures and a wealth of hidden resources, with the potential to attract good luck and promising opportunities to expand our projects, gaining more power and influence.

The combination of Venus and Pluto and the expanded fiery energies of the Full Moon in Leo, is a passionate combination, giving us an all or nothing feeling in love. Passions and desires are running high and Pluto exactly conjoined to Venus, can make love feel magnetic and intense attracting “fated” and “soul mate” connections. For some, passions are pleasantly intense while for others, power struggles and toxic issues can arise that have been hidden beneath the surface, making themselves known for resolving.

It will be hard to settle for anything less than true passion, love, fairness and equality in our relationships that allow and leave space for our inner and outer growth.

Jupiter in Aquarius raises our consciousness and awareness, while Mars and Uranus in Taurus are creating a revolutionary energy to break with the past, to bring more freedom, new ways of thinking and helping us to stay true to our own uniqueness and individuality, acting in line with our highest ideals.

Aquarius is a free spirit, where ideals of freedom, tolerance, and humanitarian values are high on their list.They seek freedom of expression and believe in living together in a brotherhood of man/women based on equality. To enable us to live a life of inner and outer freedom based on truth and justice.

“The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.”- Albert Camus

Mercury in Aquarius will turn retrograde two days after the Full Moon on the 30th January, enabling us to gather brilliant insights, we can change our patterns of thinking forever. It’s a internal revolution.

The retrograde period in the sign of Aquarius can help us to learn mindfulness and detachment, the necessary tools needed for true personal, spiritual growth, happiness and self-knowledge. Enabling us to consciously make decisions that co-create a better future based on our true desires and our higher path.

“Rather than being your thoughts and emotions, be the awareness behind them.”―Eckhart Tolle, A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life’s Purpose.

We are learning to harmonise the perfect balance between our minds and our hearts.

This Full Moon gives The power of envisioning, believing and creating, opening a gateway to let miracles in. Jupiter can inspire us to believe in miracles, keep the fire burning within and a vision for hope and a better future.

Leo represents the Sun and our life-force creative energy. Put yourself in focus and just as the Sun does not orbit around other planets, we too need to stop orbiting around others and concentrate on cultivating a healthy ego and our own magnificence.

It’s time to celebrate yourself!

The world needs us to shine with confidence and to not doubt ourselves. No one benefits if we put our light in the shade.

We are not on Earth to hide in the shadows, but to shine brightly in any possible way we can. In our own unique way. Its time to end self-doubt and believe in ourselves.

Leo teaches us to love ourselves first of all, only then can we shine our light helping to uplift others. We need to indulge ourselves with self-care and recharge our batteries. So if you are feeling burnt out by past events, take time off to do the things that do you good the most.

We need to be aware of people, things, circumstances that drain our energy. Setting healthy boundaries. This applies to the people around us as well as the influx of too much negativity in the media.

We can feel inspired to break out of routine do something inspiring and that we love. To follow where the love and our passions lead us too.

Leo in his highest form, has a healthy ego as opposed to a false or narcissistic ego. A healthy ego is based on self-love and respect. Believing in yourself with self-confidence and in your innate talents as well as your uniqueness. There is only one of you who has a special part to play in life. By shining our own light, we help and inspire others to do the same. A healthy ego is based on the love of others wanting to genuinely help and inspire others.

We can all have a piece right now of Leo’s immense personal magnetism and ability to create love and light. Their soul’s purpose is to uplift and inspire others.

It’s about finding our inspiration and joy, awakening our inner child, where we once knew everything was possible. And teaches us, that to embrace life fully, we need to stay open-hearted.

“What happens when people open their hearts? They get better.”― Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood

The Sun in Aquarius helps us to discover our own unique specialness and dare to express it. The power of self-expression has the effect of helping to attract like-minded people into our lives and gives them the courage to do the same. Something magical happens when we do this and people with common goals and dreams come together. This is when we begin to change our world and the world of others for the better.

Leo’s highest goal is to inspire and uplift others to make them recognise their own special talents and uniqueness by expressing their own. This is why we admire famous people because they remind us of our own potential. Now is the time for you to unlock that potential and take center stage.

It’s all about you now, actively co-creating your heart’s desire and the life that is right for you. Self-love and self-care are now a top priority. A complete shift in energy, that we will begin to feel more and more in the coming weeks as the month of February will see five planets all in the sign of Aquarius. We will experience a heightened sense of adventure and optimism.

It’s one of those rare chances and turning points in our lives that can set us upon a new, exciting path. We now need to embrace the unknown, rather than fear it and find the courage to follow our hearts. We can re-define our future and write a brand new script for our lives. we can express creativity through our uniqueness. We will have an extra portion of Lion-hearted courage at our disposal, firing up our ambition and desire to succeed. in order to make the necessary changes, to take our lives and happiness to the next level.

It’s time to to get passionate about things that really matter to you. To do the things you love and that make you feel alive.

“I think that we are like stars. Something happens to burst us open, but when we burst open and think we are dying; we’re actually turning into a supernova. And then when we look at ourselves again, we see that we’re suddenly more beautiful than we ever were before!”― C. JoyBell C.
