Full Moon in Leo Arrives on January 25

What needed to die before the celebration?

The period leading up to Pluto’s ingress to Aquarius has been quite uncomfortable. Pluto and the Sun in Capricorn conjoined one last time in our lifetimes before this full moon in Leo, just like preparing for a final rehearsal before a big play. It’s nerve-wracking until it is time for show.
It felt like something had to die before we started celebrating.
Even though Leo is about celebration, everything gets a little “bigger” with the square of Jupiter during this full moon. We might be overdoing something. There might be a sense of bittersweetness related to the events that occurred around August 13, 2023.
There is brutal honesty in this full moon, as this is the first full moon with Pluto in Aquarius opposition in the 20-year stay of Pluto in Aquarius.
Watch what’s going on in your life. You will be tested with your “power” in your Aquarius house, killing something consistently to celebrate another thing.
Claim what is yours and use your power gently.

What’s ahead?
Venus enters Capricorn tonight. Capricorn Venus loves commitment — clarity, communication, and determination. Capricorn Venus is not cynical in love. It might be time to commit to a creative project and have serious conversations with your partner about the future. Jupiter will give extra sweetness to this transit first until February 4.
Mars and Mercury moving together in Capricorn may contribute to a sense of assertiveness and ambition in our communication. Mars & Mercury form a square to the moon’s nodes and Chiron at the same time, creating a tension between past habits and future aspirations. Especially on January 18, when their conjunction tightens. Luckily, Uranus will have a surprise for us. We might feel a creative spark on that day; if you like to write, I recommend journaling that day.
