When you can take the bad with the good and still remain positive, you’re winning.
With so much activity happening on the Aquarius-Leo axis, there is added emphasis on collective concerns versus the concerns of the individual ego. We’re being asked to consider the big picture in certain situations, and avoid falling into the trap of making things personal. A balance must be struck in other words, because really, it ain’t always about you. The astrology this week begs us to search for compassion and understanding while swallowing our pride, so that important connections, networks, and group affiliations focused on change can proceed effectively.
The Moon grows full in the sign of Leo on Tuesday, February 3rd, exact around 6:09 p.m. EST. This Full Moon will be very close to the planet Jupiter in the sky (which will be visible to the naked eye), and will oppose the Sun in Aquarius. Full Moons bring an important shift or ending. Because Jupiter expands everything it touches, and the Moon represents the emotional tides, whatever culminates will be full of drama, and it could very well hurt your feelings. What transpires, however, will be a wake-up call that may lead to the release of unreasonable demands. If we can let go of an unhealthy need for applause and recognition, others, those you would least expect, might become more willing to celebrate our authentic gifts and contributions.
This will be an “a-ha” inspiring Full Moon. Ridding ourselves of a self-serving attitude in order to embrace a larger spectrum will be necessary. This takes courage, and there will be plenty of that on tap. But eventually, we will come to feel even more empowered as a result.
