Full Moon in Leo - Tuesday, January 22, 2008
Leo rules creative self-actualization, personal power, and the beautiful magnetism of personal vision. So this year, we have a mystic rectangle between Venus/Pluto, Mars, and the Nodal Axis. This configuration is all about enlivening brilliant, far-seeing, creative vision for global transformation.
Watch out though, the Full Moon in Leo tends to bring out our vanity. Its energy is focused on self and self-pleasures, and may tempt us all to indulge in the non-necessities of life that make us feel beautiful and pampered.
This is the Full Moon to try on the role of leader. If you have wanted to come out front with your great ideas, this is the time to try. The connection with ego identity is strong on this Full Moon. Leo understands how much power it can wield, and will never shy away from using this knowledge to accomplish even the most outrageous goals. Forget the stereotypical Leo: a partygoer dancing with a lampshade on their head. Instead, think of showing up with a serious commitment to who you are and not backing down for anything. Leo is total self-belief and it uses total commitment to gain success and glory.
Yes, of course there is a dark side to power and glory. We all know that an inflated ego creates the right conditions for abuses of power. But power used wisely can be of great benefit to all.
