At 8:35 am EST this morning we had a Full Moon in Leo. If one of the things that this Full Moon represents is the culmination of things started at the New Moon, then I look back to my New Moon in Capricorn post, wherein I wrote about the many signs for positive change in the New Year that seemed to be appearing everywhere. I, for one, have seen positive change in a number of areas of my life since 2008 began - new beginnings that bring me much hope. What better way to celebrate such auspicious harbingers of things to come than under the influence of Leo?

This is a time of warmth and enjoyment. It is a time for romance and pleasure, with our emotions at the forefront of our consciousness. Rather than focusing on spellwork today, I'm drawn to luxuriate in the feelings Leo evokes and to savor the happiness that the last few weeks have brought me. And since Leo is ruled by the Sun, I want to spend my day (here in chilly New England) daydreaming of being on a lovely beach with someone I love.

Cafe Astrology says:

Mercury aligns with Neptune today, which adds to the mystique of the Full Moon. Our intuitive creativity is stimulated under this influence. Conscious reasoning can be distorted by subconscious matter, so concentrating on cold hard facts can be challenging. Daydreaming, visualization, and prophecy are stimulated.

While today may not be the greatest day to conduct serious business, it will be a perfect day for divination and other psychic work. Messages may be unclear or vague, but the energy is out there today to bring them to us in full force.

Leo is ruled by the Sun. He is associated with the tarot card Strength, the element of fire, and the color gold. To look up other correspondences for working with Leo energy, visit Spelwerx and Phoenix Rising.
