I happily spent Saturday flexing my stylist muscle... I successfully created the most delicate, neo-wizard, Mists of Avalon witch crown for my lovely friend Shanna of Guitars. The full moon on Saturday was in the house of Leo which Dipali Desaidescribes viaCelestial Space Astrology: (The below can give you an idea of how the events of our evening transpired) The Full Moon in Leo occurs at 7 degrees on January 26th/27th, 2013. With the Sun in detached mind-oriented Aquarius while the Moon in dramatic heart-centered Leo, it is possible to initially experience a clashing of emotions under these specific astrological aspects that are a part of this Full Moon phase.
Emotions are bubbling high and low under this phase, yet precious illuminated insights will reveal themselvesthrough all of the conflict, clashes and perhaps overly dramatic interactions. Ultimately, the mind and heart is seeking union with each other during the Full Moon in Leo instead of remaining at odds.
Leo is a fixed mode of energy and a fire sign. This suggests self-expression and demonstrating how you feel is a natural part of this astrological sign. The sign of Leo also reminds each to embody love, have dignity and also have pride in what you express. That is, shine your best and authentic Self.
After a series of unfortunate events upon my arrival/transition to my new habitat, I have been less than confidant in the rather impulsive move I made to the Pacific Northwest. Fortunate for me, I had a visit from my pops this weekend, and came to the realization that luck and comfort really don't matter when you have loved ones who are rooting for you. I'm am truly blessed with unconditional love and support; and no matter how many boxes of books I loose and how many cats poop on my stuff, I say bring it universe - I own you.
