February 2009 Full Moon in Leo


The full moon today occurs on the Leo/Aquarius axis, thus enhancing the influence of the elements found in these two signs, with varied repercussions that I will try to explain in this article.

In itself, the Sun/Moon opposition causes destabilization, because it creates contradiction between the Yin and Yang principles, symbolizing the female/male and positive/negative extremes producing energy short-circuits that can be responsible for many disorders. In a natal chart, for example, this configuration (as well as the square at a lesser degree) very often announces the separation of the parents. Indeed and amongst other things, the Moon represents the mother and the Sun represents the father… At the time of the full moon, our organism is subjected to a kind of “high tide” smaller but similar to what happens to the oceans. It is a known fact that the combined energies of the moon and the sun are responsible for the movements of tides. Our body being composed of approximately 70% water, this phenomenon concerns us too. It’s not surprising then, that some of us feel really different during the full moon, especially at night, when it is shining, reflecting the rays of the sun that are thus bombarded towards the Earth and its occupants who cannot escape such heavenly emission.

This full moon will primarily concern the natives of Aquarius and Leo more especially because the Sun is ruler of this sign and in “exile” (thus weaker) in Aquarius. The planetary cluster around the Sun will have a strong influence too. There we find Mars, Jupiter, the North Lunar Node, Chiron and Neptune. Mars increases tensions and aggressiveness as well as impulsiveness, with the many mishaps that they usually lead to… Jupiter encourages excess and favors errors of judgments due to too much optimism or confidence… The North Node encourages going towards what is best, but the opposition of the South Node, amplified by the presence of the Moon, increases uncertainty regarding the best direction to take in order to reach the goal… Chiron increases the impact of any illness. Its presence here encourages reflection and analysis, but a too critical approach harms the objectivity of reasoning… Neptune invites to the imaginary, it stimulates our intuition, but renders more vulnerable. Its energy also augments the consequences of glandular and hormonal disorders…

Whatever our sign or Ascendant is, we are all concerned. The incidence of this full moon differs from one chart to another, obviously, and will show up more particularly in the life of the natives of the two signs directly concerned (Leo and Aquarius, as well as Taurus and Scorpio. Then, the incidence in such or such particular case depends on the elements found in the chart and the beneficial or conflicting links with what is regrouped in Aquarius at the moment. If you wish to find out what impact it may have in your life, contact me.

The full moon also acts on the climate of planet. In general, the sky becomes cloudier a few hours before the full moon and rain comes down a few hours after the exact opposition between these two major celestial bodies. However, neither Leo nor Aquarius is really what one could call a “rain sign”. The first is a Fire sign, the second an Air sign. Therefore, it should not rain too much over the next two days or so. On the other hand, cold and heat waves (depending on the areas around the world) will make the News headlines.

On the political and social level, during about two weeks, until the new moon, the disturbances will come from the opposition between the reformists and the conservatives which will slow down much needed changes. Aquarius represents the people and the interest in their welfare, whereas Leo represents “monarchy” i.e. the capacity of the rich who perceives success only through the accumulation of goods for themselves, at the expense of others, in whom they have no interest whatsoever… In these times of major financial crisis, I thank all the money-hungry speculators who finally succeeded in putting the economy on its knees without a drop of sweat from any honorable or constructive labor. Bravo!…

Whether you want to order a complete forecast or ask a single question, I remind you that I prolonged the period of “promotions” until the end of this month. There will be other discount times, but not so soon perhaps. So, don’t delay!

Thanks for your interest in my writings.

Have a nice day.
