It is time to shine, ladies and gentlemen! Friday, January 28^th, we have this year’s first Full Moon in the regal sign of Leo.

Leo likes to shine alone on the stage, and with the exception of a positive trine to Leo’s eccentric friend Uranus, this weekend’s Full Moon shines alone without any interrupting planets or aspects dimming its glory – in true Leo fashion.

And as the glamorous fire sign Leo dances with free-spirited Uranus, there will without doubt be a visionary flare to 2021’s first Full Moon. Uranus is not afraid of thinking outside of the box, and his energy will be helping you to look beyond your own confinement. Mix that with Leo’s bold and brave heart, and you will find the courage to get out of the rut and step onto your own hero’s path.

Because the courageous and spirited sign of the Leo, is all about learning to live fearlessly from the center of our being. Under the energies of this playful and energizing Full Moon, you are asked to call on your courage, embrace your inner child and take a chance on life. What are you passionate about? What brings you joy? How can you bring more creativity and play into your life?

If you are one of those who have stopped playing and feel that life is now just about serious business, this is your chance to change that mentality. Play is good for mind body and soul and the Leo Full Moon is urging you to step out of your comfort zone and be brave with your life (👉need it validated by research? Read Brené Brown’s wonderful book ‘The Gifts of Imperfection‘. Play is actually one of ten core habits we need to be happy humans!). This is your chance to start dreaming your world into being!!

Take time today to sit with yourself and draw in the high spirits of the brave lion. Surrender your heart to the journey and trust that you are Guided. If you get out of your own way, and learn to move with the flow, it is so much easier for the Universe to do her magic.

The beautiful energy of this heartfelt, fiery Full Moon is pushing you towards your hearts calling. Have faith in your path and your process, and let the Universe do what she does best, knowing that whatever unfolds at this time is written in the stars. Enjoy the ride!!

Happy Full Moon in Leo, lovelies!

January 13^th the Sun and Moon once again conjunct at their monthly meet-up, and we have the first new moon of 2021. As always new moons represent new beginnings, and with this new moon being the first new moon of 2021, the energy of new beginnings, is even more powerful than usual.

Moreover, with the sun and moon conjunct in the ambitious and determined sign of go-getter Capricorn this new moon is truly encouraging you to get your intentions clear and turn your focus to your long-term goals. To help you along, Capricorn’s ruler, Saturn, has moved out of this sturdy earth sign (where he has resided since the end of 2017) and into the visionary of the zodiac – airy and expansive Aquarius. If the Saturn + Aquarius energy had a slogan it would be “if you can dream it, you can do it!”- so let’s get started! Let these planetary aspects work in your favor. Draw on the energies you need and see if you can leave the rest. Embrace the ideas of visionary Aquarius in combination with the discipline and commitment of the wise sea-goat, Capricorn, and ground your highest dreams into the physical plane.

Make some solid plans, not air castles, and really dig into this powerful new moon energy. What does your heart long for? What does your soul need? Dream it. Visualize it. Climb the mountain and go for it! This is a time to think big, and to plant fertile seeds for your biggest visions to come into fruition. Remember to give it time though. Be patient. Rome was not built in one day.

If climbing your mountain seems impossible at this time, don’t despair. Trust the timing of your life – you will move when you are meant to.  If your life feels like a never-ending series of lessons, bringing you one step forward and three steps back, the darkness and introspective energies surrounding every new moon brings the perfect space to stop, pause and just breathe.

Do a bit of personal inventory. Look back. What do you see? What have you learned? With transformative Pluto conjunct the new moon, you will get the push needed to face your shadows, rip out the blockages that stops you from living your life once and for all. When the going gets tough, know that life is always trying to teach you something, and if patterns keep repeating themselves in your life, you have simply not learned your lesson – yet.

Whatever resides in your shadow, find the courage to face it, so you do not have to drag along this sluggish energy into 2021. Then give yourself permission to move on. No matter what hardships you are facing; do not let life make you hard. Soften the walls around your heart. Let your challenges make you stronger, wiser, and more loving towards yourself and others. After all, you are here for the story – the story of your heart and soul – not to impress anyone through false perfection. And remember, more often than not, it is just a change in perspective that is needed to create a positive shift, so start with your thoughts and the way you think about things.

Remind yourself that the best is yet to come and get ready to rise, shine and truly welcome in the new moon, this brand-new year and most of all the new you. The first two weeks after the new moon, is the best time for manifesting, so this is indeed a time for breakthroughs! Shake off your old fears and beliefs and do not be afraid to truly embrace that uniqueness that is you. And keep in mind that it does not matter if the people around you do not always understand your need for change or a new beginning. Do not belittle yourself for anyone. This is your life and your journey, and even though it through times of transformation and change will sometimes feel lonely, know that when you start to believe in yourself, become a leader in your own life, and start to embrace that uniqueness that is YOU, opportunities will start to blossom as the Universe delivers her magic to you! Brave hearts are always rewarded.

New Moon Blessings to All,
