Full Moon in Leo Vibes + Horoscopes 🔥
Welcome to The Stellar Situation! My new space to share astrological updates with you. First up - insights on this powerful Leo Full Moon for every sign!
On Thursday, January 25th, we encounter our first full moon of 2024. At 10:53 am MST the sun in Aquarius will oppose the moon in Leo at 5 degrees. Pluto, the god of the underworld and planet of destruction, power, and transformation, who just moved into Aquarius a few days ago, is deeply in the mix with this full moon as well as Jupiter, the planet of expansion, good fortune, and growth. So let’s talk about what all this astro babble actually means for you…
The General Vibe
Full Moons are a moment of CULMINATION and they beckon back to the New Moon that preceded them 6 months earlier, in this case, the New Moon in Leo on August 16, 2023. Full Moons always invite us to review what has happened within this 6-month cycle. I know many people talk about Full Moons as a RELEASE moment (which it IS great for…) but I find more use in using them as a REFLECTION moment - based on your reflections you will know how to best use this moment for yourself. I suppose what I’m trying to get at here is all astrological moments truly deserve a check-in with yourself to see what you are up for and what you need, not just pushing yourself to do what an Instagram astrologer told you to do. I’m all about inner authority around here and with Leo being the ruler of the heart and the sign that teaches us to shine brightly in who we are, I think this is a great moon to put this into practice for yourself.
A few things you can ask yourself on this moon:
What themes were kicking off in your life in August of last year? How do you have a new and different perspective on those themes now vs then? What from this mini-era is no longer useful for you and is ready to let go of? (This may be tools, ideas, or even people).
Pluto’s influence on this moon is asking us to dig deep and excavate our lives, our hearts, and our desires - what is that your heart truly desires? Jupiter’s influence invites us to take action to grow towards those desires. Where do you need to take action in your life to show up as the expansive, multi-dimensional being that you are? This Full Moon is ripe for stepping into your full potential - it’s got all the ingredients for a transformational glow-up if I do say so myself!
Okurr, but let’s talk about how this affects YOU on a more individual level - read for your rising first and sun and moon next.
AQUARIUS
Ok Aqua, what sort of revelations about your relationships have been made in the last 6 months? You’re entering your transformational era with Pluto now in Aquarius, let’s kick it off by letting go of the ways of relating that no longer serve you! You may find support from your ancestry at this time (ie is there an ancestor who you feel inspired by? how can you embody those qualities?) or you may be ready to finally talk with that family member about that thing.
TL;DR: Cleaning out the skeletons in the relationship closet!
PISCES
You need a weekend getaway babe - do yourself a favor and book it. How has your relationship to work and your daily routines changed over the last 6 months? That little getaway is a good chance to reset from perhaps being overly focused on work BS and your health or fitness. Have you been so focused on the mundane that you have neglected your inner world? Clean that altar, light a candle, and take a trip to the astral.
TL;DR: All work and no (astral) travel makes Pisces a sad girl.
ARIES
Girly pop, how has your view on dating changed in the last 6 months? If you’re boo’d up, how has your relationship to your creativity changed in the last 6 months?
When you but your creativity into action and use it to pursue your aspirations, there’s some money there hunny. If dating is the focus for you here - check in with yourself on this moon what you need to feel SAFE in relationship, share it with your closest confidants and just maybe there will be a great blind date in your future. Pluto is here to transform your dating life.
TL;DR: On the dating market? Get clear on what makes you feel SAFE in relationships. Get your creativity in gear, it’s here to make you $.
TAURUS
My earth angels, how has your sense of home changed in the last 6 months? What’s shifted behind closed doors in your personal life? It may be time to redecorate or clean out your closets…build new confidence and affirm who you are with a lil style update! Knowing you, that stuff you are gonna get rid off is worth some $$ - sell it on Mercari so you can buy yourself something that affirms your new style!
TL;DR: You are due for some rearranging and redecorating - do it to watch your confidence skyrocket!
GEMINI
My little social butterflies, how have your world views, values or ideals changed or been influenced by your inner in the last 6 months? Are you holding onto ideas that are no longer serving you? Take some time to be alone with yourself, a break from the constant input you love, to get some clarity on what’s important to you and how you want to speak up about it.
TL;DR: I’m not saying you need a silent retreat, but a lil hermiting will do your mind good.
CANCER
With your mind on your money and money on your mind is how you’re entering this Full Moon. Maybe you’ve been doing a bit too much online shopping or you are considering how your unique talents can bring in new income for you - either way, it’s a moment to take pause on what security looks like for you and how that idea has changed over the last 6 months. Let go of habits that are no longer serving you and refocus your energy inward, the rewards you reap will be bountiful.
TL;DR: Getcha money right and mind to your mind.
LEO
Our Full Moon main character (but let’s be honest, you are always the main character…), I must know, how have you glown-up in the last 6 months? Chances are you have experienced a major identity evolution since August. It’s time to shine as the bright new star you are - don’t be afraid to put yourself out there to be SEEN hunny, with it comes exciting change on your path.
TL;DR: Time to show up your glow-up baby!
VIRGO
Virgo my loves, are you feeling captive to your fears or negative self-talk? Time to shed, baby. How has your relationship to the unknown, the void, and your subconscious fears evolved over these last 6 months? This is a powerful Full Moon for you to release those ideas. There’s only one you Virgo and that’s what makes you absolutely stunning. Support yourself through this transition by reading or studying a new or old favorite philosopher, their words will help you find your wings.
TL;DR: You’re in your Chrysalis era, what do you need to feel safe to be seen when it’s time to spread your wings and fly?
LIBRA
You social butterfly, you. Your socialite dial is turned all the way up for this Full Moon! Which has you thinking, how has your community changed in the last 6 months? It’s a cathartic time to talk with your people about those changes and how they have impacted your mental health. You can go deep without dimming the vibe. It’s important to nurture the relationships that give back to you as much as you give to them.
TL;DR: Make room for the relationships that fill your cup, you’re exiting your one-way friendship era.
SCORPIO
The spotlight is on you, gorgeous! If you planted seeds last year around your career or how you want to show up in the world, it’s time to make those money moves. How have your ideas about being SEEN evolved over the last 6 months? It’s time to let go of the limiting beliefs you hold (they may be deeply ingrained within you from familial imprinting). You deserve to take up space and be visible for all of your talents. Seek counsel from your closest relations at this time for encouragement + support in your actions.
TL;DR: It’s time to make those money moves, call your bestie for a pep-talk.
SAGITTARIUS
I know how much you love an expansive experience - whether it’s getting lost in a book or traveling to a foreign destination. So the question is, how have your ideas of what is required to “expand your mind” changed over the last 6 months? Lean into some of the mundane life stuff like working out and cooking dinner - ya know “chop wood, carry water” vibes - to gain clarity. You’re entering an era of transformation when it comes to how you think about the world, this is just the beginning.
TL;DR: There is magic in the mundane, I swear. (Plus it’s going to bring you major clarity).
CAPRICORN
Do you ever think about the things you inherited from your family that have nothing to do with the physical world? This could be trauma, values, or ideals. I want to know how you have been questioning those over the last 6 months. In doing so, what has come up for you on a deep psychological level? I also want to remind you that you are MAGICAL AF - don’t forget you have a damn mermaid tail, Capricorn. Tap into your innate magic and engage your creativity for a breakthrough around the more mysterious zones of life (ie death, sex and magic).
TL;DR: We’re getting deep this full, just read the full thing.
