Are you ready to shine?
As you probably know, we will have a Full Moon again – did you notice how time flies these days? There are so many things going on energetically that are manifesting right before our eyes. One just has to look at the political and social situations all over the world to know that change is on its way. Not just the kind of obvious change political leadership brings but also change in how people feel about that.
I purposely don’t follow politics, however, even for someone like me who prefers to focus on my own little surroundings to try and live a joyful and fulfilled life – the change does not go unnoticed.
It almost feels like for the first time, the uncertain and downright baffling world situation is a reflection of what’s going on in my own life, emotions, and spiritual development.
I don’t think this is a coincidence. The planets´ movements and energetic influence have become so strong, it just cannot be denied anymore. There is no more logical reasoning left to explain the rapid changes in emotions and my perspective on life.
Why am I even on this planet? What is my soul meant to do so it can feel its purpose is being fulfilled and lived to the fullest? Why have I not been able to really shine at what I’m good at?
Am I even on the correct path?
Where does this profound tiredness come from? The type of tiredness that cannot be cured with a good night’s sleep. The constant exhaustion even though nothing significant gets accomplished.
It’s that kind of feeling where my energy is completely drained from putting so much effort and time into what I want to do and not getting anywhere. Knowing that there is so much more than just doing my very best at a job that doesn’t feel right but is necessary to survive.
These questions and seemingly negative feelings are great.
Questioning the Status Quo and becoming aware that something is missing is the very first and most important step towards making the necessary changes and step into our power of truly living and not just surviving in a world that is becoming more complicated and cruel.
We need this Full Moon´s energy right now more than anything else in this world.
If you stick with me here, you will understand why this week is literally a portal that can initiate that significant change that you´ve been waiting for.
Full Moons are always about revelations and letting go of the things, places, and people in our lives that don’t serve us anymore. If I say things, this can be material things or emotional things we are attached to. Maybe past feelings or situations, limiting beliefs hidden within our subconscious, situations we are dealing with in our lives that make us feel less than joyful, in short, all the things that keep us from doing what we are supposed to do.
But the question is what ARE we supposed to do?
Can we even want what we want or is our purpose hidden deep in our subconscious which will lead us towards fulfilling our soul´s contract so powerfully that everything we are trying to achieve gets blocked because what we think we want is not what we really want?
Is what we really want hidden in the deepest and darkest corner of our subconscious, unable to reveal itself because we do whatever we can to ignore and suppress that side of us that we don´t like?
Are our purpose and true desires like a black hole we don´t want to enter or worse cannot even see because maybe we don´t believe it’s there?
Tomorrow, the Full Moon will rise in the zodiac sign of Leo. Every zodiac sign is ruled by a planet (or major astral body). Leo is very special because it´s ruled by the sun, the masculine energy to the Moon´s feminine energy, the Yang to its Ying, the force that balances the emotional, inward-going, reflective, intuitional – often dark – energy of the Moon.
The sun shines its light on everything, there can be no darkness where sun is present, it gives life to things. If the sun shines on something, that something has nowhere to hide anymore, it will be exposed by brute force. This exposure can feel positive or negative, depending on what is being brought to light.
If the Moon is in Leo, its energy it emits will be greatly influenced by this revealing force of the sun.
If the Full Moon is in Leo, this energy is multiplied as Full Moons in general deal with revealings.
However, the sort of revealings the sun brings are very obvious and straightforward. The Moon will reveal the hidden things, the dark things, the part of us that is hiding in the shadows afraid to come out and be seen.
This week, the Full Moon will use this Leo (Sun) energy which makes it one of the most powerful and undeniable energetic forces you will ever feel.
Something that was hidden will reveal itself as the Moon starts to shine her light onto those hidden things you didn’t know about your Leo side.
We are talking about who you truly are, where you shine or want to shine in this world
So buckle up and don´t be surprised to have a sudden, maybe even shocking revelation or realization about things you have been reflecting on during these past few weeks.
Who are you and what makes you feel truly happy? What are the things that you can passionately talk about all night long? What are the things that make you lose track of time? What type of work doesn’t feel like work because it’s so aligned with your values and talents that it comes natural to you?
Leo, as it is ruled by the sun, has the power to amplify the area you would like to be seen. If that area is suppressed, Leo wants to bring it out of hiding and give you the courage to go out there and show the world who you truly are.
However, although the Moon’s energy is up for grabs for everybody, you need to actually grab it and do something with it. Otherwise you won’t feel its effects to the fullest and it will not help you to move forward.
It’s like if I hand you $1000 but you don’t take them, you will not be able to buy the things you need. So me wanting to give you $1000 is not going to do anything for you unless you take the money out of my hands, think about what you will invest it in and then actually go and do something with it.
The same happens with this Full Moon in Leo energy. It’s there for you but if you are not willing to accept it and do your part, it will just pass by as any other Full Moon.
Doing your part this time means something radical. The Moon is not going to make it easy for you. She will make you work, sweat, cry, scared, vulnerable, guilty, sad, angry. It’s terrifying, really.
We call this the ultimate version of Shadow Work, the courage to dive into your own darkness and see who we truly are.
How to do this would be a topic of another post (rather many posts – too many to count).
But don´t worry, I will not leave you hanging here thinking ok nice but where do I even start?
If you feel completely lost by now and don’t know anything but how confused you are, you can always start with the stars.
If you want to take advantage of this Full Moon in Leo, a first step could be to check which planets are in Leo in YOUR personal birth chart and in which ´house´ they are located.
If you don´t know, CafeAstrology will create a natal chart for you completely free of charge.
You need your DOB, exact time of birth, and location to get a precise chart of the stars you were born under.
The report will show you which planet(s) are in Leo and in which house.
For example, in my chart, Saturn is in Leo and located in the 6th house. Saturn is all about authenticity and responsibility and the 6th house is the area of how you think and plan, your methods and ´calculations´ of life, in short, the way you move through life.
In my case, I might start with reflecting on how authentic I am, and how I approach my responsibilities. It is very likely that the full Moon will show me something I haven’t realized yet in that area.
Just sit with this information, keep it in the back of your head but don´t get stuck on it.
Revelations about your inner workings come in the silence!
Try to limit exposure to noise, people, TV, and other sources of distraction and meditate if you can.
If meditation is not something you are used to, just allow yourself to sit in silence, grab a cup of coffee and write down what comes to mind.
Distance yourself from your problems and even from who you think you are and become the observer of you. This will help you be more honest with yourself and opens up the opportunity to shift your perspectives.
If you´re willing to go there and see even the darkest parts of yourself without judgement, this Full Moon in Leo will support your efforts and shine her light onto something valuable that you have not seen (like that) before.
