There is an opportunity for insight and progress inherent in the Full Moon. People often react emotionally during the days of the Full Moon due to a feeling of helplessness. They become aware of the distance between the way they want their life to be, and the way it currently is.

Often, when they see this gap, they become upset. The reflection from their environment shows them a realistic view of their relationships. The feeling of powerlessness comes from awareness of the discrepancy between the way you would like things to be, and the way they actually are. The empowerment is that this awareness gives you the chance to see what things need to be changed, and then to proactively begin bringing those changes about.

Because this FULL MOON occurs in the sign of LEO, the desire for drama is ignited. You will become aware of whether or not you are receiving the recognition of your specialness you need. It may become apparent that it’s in your best interest to include a creative venture into your routine that adds enjoyment to what is currently happening in your daily life.

LEO rules romance and fun. During the three days around this Full Moon, you can see where you need to make changes in an important relationship to add more aliveness. Once aware of your interaction, how can you best adjust your approach so that you can more successfully experience the play and romance that makes relationships fun?

These are powerful days (1/25-1/28) for reevaluating the new beginnings you made during the most recent New Moon. Re-read your wish list and notice how where you are now is either closer to – or further away from – the dreams in your heart that you would like to manifest in your life.

Given that this Full Moon is in the sign of LEO – opposing the Sun in AQUARIUS – people are likely to react emotionally when they don’t get what they want. There can be an impatient preoccupation with ‘fairness’. The best way to deal with the public during these days is to understand that people are simply lost in their own dramas, and don’t take it personally.

Times during this Full Moon when the emotional intensity will be at its strongest:

Friday, 1/25 – all day and all night, especially volatile 3:35 pm – midnight
Saturday, 1/26 – all day and all night, especially volatile 12:01 am – 9:20 am
Sunday, 1/27 – all day and all night
Monday, 1/28 – the energy begins to calm
