If you have been on the Internet lately, you will know that we just passed not only a Full Moon, but also a Lunar Eclipse. Anybody with at least a toe in the astrological waters can tell you that both a Full Moon, and Lunar Eclipse, bring about a mass amount of cosmic, spiritual energy! A transformative energy, that brings with it an immense amount of change.
If you did your normal Full Moon Ritual, and released all of the old, negative energy in your life, then it is time to start working on those imminent and imperative changes. Eclipses usually cause abrupt and sudden change in ones life. Occasionally this change is unprepared for; often coming in a most unexpected and unusual way. For instance:
Your looking to move up in your career, uncertain of what you can do, you find an email in your inbox. You clearly weren’t supposed to be CC’d based on the other names attached to the email, but you scroll down to see that word of a promotion is making it’s way through the office grapevine. Seizing the upper-hand of this new, and exclusive, information, you begin dropping hints to your boss. While the Eclipse can never guarantee success, it’s a 99.8% chance that the job is yours.
With this Lunar Eclipse falling in Leo, you are bound to have tremendous success in all creative endeavors. I highly recommend carrying around some Tigers Eye during the next week as the Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse effects start to set in. Not only will it open up your creative pathways, but it will also allow you to move with discernment and confidence in all your dealings.
Leo can be a bit prideful at times, and here at WitchyGals I never like to say that a characteristic is negative. Instead I say it is more prone to get us into trouble, if one doesn’t carefully monitor themselves. You may find yourself coming off of an “ego-buzz” this next week. As we move into the waning moon, a gentle start to our wind down, you might realize that you may have over-indulged during the time of the Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse. Receipts from late-night ice cream runs and art supply stores, and maybe some beginnings of new artistic pieces. The key here is to not let that energy run wild, but to funnel it. Use it to keep working on those creative ideas and new ventures. Make sure you write down all of those wonderful, new ideas that will be coming to you in the meantime.
A Full Moon is always a time for a lot of love, and Leo Moons often have a lot of love moving around them. So a Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse in Leo in February?!?! Cupid couldn’t have aligned the stars anymore perfectly. (Not to mention that the wonderful Venus was in full view the first 3 days of February). If you are currently pursing a love interest, whether they be human or otherwise, I suggest you follow your heart on this one. This Lunar Eclipse brings with it emotional upheaval, and truth. You may find yourself giving genuine thought to your love life, possibly receiving new information on a lover or love interest. We also, may have a lot of love in other non-romantic, relationships. Take extra care to remain calm, and loving, as your emotions are thrown into a bit of a frenzy. (Moonstone is great for clearing an emotionally hectic mind) The Truth, may come in another area of your life but you should receive this new information with love and gratefulness. The Universe seeks to help you grow and blossom; even though the truth of a matter may be hard to deal with, it is overall helping you grow into the gorgeous flower you will be.
