No matter the sign, a full moon is a time of illumination and of revealing previously unseen truths.

There are a few ways to look at these cycles.

In my experience, the significance of a full moon can often become apparent only on the full moon.

Full moon also known as Snow Moon sets behind Rocca Calascio castle in Calascio  Abruzzo Italy on February 16 2022.

The last Full Snow Moon, as seen in Italy on February 16, 2022.

(The lastnew moonwasJanuary 21, 2023, in Aquarius.

Take a moment and reflect: What major things have happened between then and now?

Just likeeclipses, not every new and full moon will be be big for you.

How does Aquarius fit into all of this?

You may be asking: Why are we talking aboutAquariusif this is a Leo full moon?

The cold, dry month (ready yourbest hand creams, folks!)

is a time for Aquarian innovation and idealism and, by contrast, logic and even detachment.

Known for being independent, free-thinking, Aquarius is able to see the big picture.

They often give Capricorns a run for their money on their talent for creating actionable five-year plans.

and one of the four humane signs, meaning that it is symbolized in the zodiac by a human.

All these signs are particularly in tune with the human condition.

What is the astrological meaning of a full moon in Leo?

Now, let’s talk about theLeoarchetype.

My dear friendBlake Kellyrecently remarked something to the effect of, “Leos are so misunderstood.

Theyre not demanding attention.

They are justthatfabulous that we all cant look away.”

I find this to be all too true.

Leos are known for their independence, creativity, exuberance, and style.

Every sign is ruled by a planet, and most share a planet with another sign.

That final tidbit should tell you just about everything you’re gonna wanna know about Leo.

It is life-giving and nurtures everything and everyone on Earth.

To put it plainly, we would cease to exist without it.

A Leo full moon really is a time to shine and be yourself without reservation.

How apropos forValentines Day.

A midsummer sign, Leo is also associated with being a child running, playing, even frolicking.

What else is happening with the planets in February 2023?

The February 5 full moon in Leo, however, includes quite thebalanceof elements.

The moon is in LeoandJupiter is in Aries, so that is a twofold fire combination.

It also makes a weak opposition (180) to Saturn, which can feel restrictive or depressing.

Plus, we see a sextile (60) to Mars which is good for getting stuff done.

Stay warm, star lovers, and we’ll see you soon.
