The Moon in Leo

When the Moon transits Leo in Astrology

Leo is the 5th House in Astrology

Whenever the Moon is in Leo, strong decisive feelings of confidence and generosity overcome each and every one of us. Everyone will be feeling more confident, warm, optimistic, generous and in a fun loving mood. It's a great time to ask for a raise, since employers will be feeling more sympathetic to their employees. People will respond to the compliments that we give them so make sure to tell that special someone how great they look, admire something unique about the way they are dressed, or give them a compliment on their hairstyle. Be sure that it's sincere, genuine and truly heartfelt. Under a Leo Moon, we all can easily sense insincerity so be sure you mean what you say.

It's an ideal day to dress to impress, wear jewelry and step into the limelight. We will be feeling extravagant and have tendencies to treat ourselves and those closest to us like royalty. Strut your stuff and show the world what a knockout you are. Be careful, however, of a temptation to overspend as we all will be feeling overly generous, especially towards the people we truly cherish. Don't break the bank and be extra cautious of promising others more than you can deliver.

Pay attention to the signs of Leo and Aquarius today. They will exude sex appeal, confidence and we could find ourselves drawn inexplicably to these powerful signs. They will be the most popular, attractive and able to make tremendous strides in their personal and professional endeavors today and tomorrow. So move over and let Leo and Aquarius take the spotlight where they tend to shine naturally and dazzle us with their personal style, leadership abilities and amazing sense of humor. We could all learn something from these movers and shakers of the Zodiac.

Aquarius Yearly For 2017

As we begin 2017, it's important to note that 2016 was a # 9 year in Astrology. The # 9 represents a high spiritual vibration, but also relates the end of a cycle and endings in general. So, 2016 was all about the end of one cycle. This year, 2017, is a #1 year. 2017 features new beginnings, independence, and therefore a total tearing down in order to rebuild. According to Numerology, 2017 will have a sharp contrast in comparison to last year (2016) as where last year there were endings - the end of one cycle, now in the year of #1, it's about new loves for some, new beliefs about love for others it's about justice and legal matters. In Numerology, the energies of these numbers ( # 9 and # 1) are the equivalent of night and day. So expect a year of drastic new beginnings on a universal/world and personal level. 

As 2017 begins, Jupiter transits the compatible air sign of Libra, Libra is very much a marriage minded sign and holds rulership over The 7th House in Astrology. The 7th House rules marriage, legal partnerships, divorce and other legalities. Jupiter is also about our personal belief systems and with two eclipses in the sign of Leo this year, the House of passion and relationships are where it's at in 2017, Aquarius. The way we all see them, how we want them and our beliefs about love could change drastically. Another possibility of this influence is how we all handle issues with tact and diplomacy. But with Jupiter in Libra, there could be differences of opinions in partnerships because Libra is prone to indecision. It could be your best year ever to get married, set records and possibly bring about some changing beliefs about marriage/partnerships as Libra rules the 7th House (Marriages) and Jupiter rules expansion. Justice is another property concerned with Libra so, your own personal and intimate views about justice, and what it personally means to you will occur throughout Jupiter in the compatible fellow air sign of Libra, Aquarius. 

As 2017 begins, Jupiter begins the year in your 9th House of spirituality, Aquarius. Jupiter has stationed direct in Libra since 9/9/16 and will remain there until October 10th of 2017. Then, the emphasis shifts from your 9th House of overseas travel and enters your 10th House of prestige, public perception and persona, and dealings with VIPs, so you can make a serious impression this year when dealing with both the 9th and 10th Houses as they promise to promote prosperity, growth and expansion. Focus on your 9th House for luck and prosperity until October when you step into your 10th House of 

There will be four Eclipses this year and February will be a standout/memorable and fast paced month for you. Venus (love, money and admiration) Mars (Sexuality/Motivation) and Uranus (Your planetary ruler) will tour Aries, your 3rd House of self-expression and intellect. However, Venus spends two entire months in Aries beginning in February and lasting until April, so this is certain to stir up heavy activity and emphasis on your 3rd House of neighbors, siblings, the internet and self-expression. Mars will also join up with these planets making for powerful and expected news about where you live, money, your neighborhood and please don't allow yourself to be swayed into giving away your money. There is someone withholding important financial information from you, Aquarius. Balance your budget and keep your eyes on your money in February. Try not to let anyone give you any excuse to borrow, loan and lend. 

The First Eclipse of the year occurs on 2/10/17 and it is a Lunar Eclipse in Leo, your  7th House of marriage, legal issues, court documents, open enemies and professional relationships. You will ditch relationships this month that are not entirely serious and steamy! If someone in your life appears too eager or has made their intentions known, you might want to distance yourself, unless you happen to be interested in some way, avoid this individual altogether. Then on 2/26, a Solar Eclipse occurs in Pisces, your 2nd House of finance and self-worth occurs. February will promise to bring about some memorable events and that is an understatement. It's about privacy, money and partnerships, Aquarius! See what transpires and watch how Eclipses play out in your life. Refer to Lunar and Solar Eclipses for more information about Lunar and Solar Eclipses in 2017 and look to the 2nd and 7th Houses to get a little idea of February. Remember too, that the internet, siblings, neighborhood, short distance travel are areas that really come into focus for you and are where you can make an impact as the year begins fast and events in February come even faster! 

Neptune has been in Pisces, your 2nd House of finances and your personal valuables and possessions, Aquarius. During this long transit, you might find that there is something you are not seeing clearly with regard to these matters. You could encounter deception with a friend(s), family member or a romantic partner who might be eyeing your income, Aquarius. So, be on the lookout for possible deception. Not to worry though, Aquarius, just watch your belongings carefully during this long transit of Pisces. On the flip side, you could find that its you who is not watching the budget and its you who is indulging in valuables, possessions and not anyone else. Your ideas about your finances will not always be accurate as Neptune is also the planet of illusion.

Good News, Aquarius? Saturn (Lessons/Tests of Maturity) spends its last year in Sagittarius and your 11th House of friends. Can you look back and think about the past two plus years or so, Aquarius? What has transpired where your friends, hopes, wishes, dreams, groups and people from your past have occurred? Have you been tested by these areas or made tremendous strides. Remember that Saturn is the planet of karma, lesson and demands prep work and questions your maturity level. You are naturally surrounded by people, so I suspect this planet has gifted you and how, Aquarius. Your hopes and dreams most likely have come true on one area? You might have lost one friend but gained four more. Only you know how this has played out for you and since your ruled by the 11th House, you're an expert at the art of friendship, you bring laughter and can mix and mingle with everyone. You despise discrimination,fight for fairness when needed you can expect 2017 to be one of the most life changing years ever, single or coupled, Aquarius!

Pisces Monthly Forecast

Venus (Love/Luck/ Attraction) is in Aquarius from 3/1 - 3/27 your solar 12th house of self imposed isolation. This is always an interesting transit because your sign is naturally ruled by the 12th House. You might not always get what you want but you are a mutable sign that can adapt to any situation presented to you. Pisces will find March to be eye opening. This is a time when your fantasy life will be rich and full of romantic love but your head, not your heart, will take precedence over your fantasies and bring you back down to earth with practical thinking. Emotions are easy, love is the hard part, Pisces. You could be inundated with work and projects and feel that there is not enough time for love, but once you find the time you might question your existing relationship and wonder if it's what you thought it was. This is the time to listen to your intuition regarding love in all areas. This is a serious year for love for all Pisces and also a month to do some serious soul searching and come to reality about the way you love and who you love. Be emotionally honest with yourself and with others as well for the best results possible.

With Uranus aka (Surprises) entering your 2nd House of finances and income, you will encounter some shake ups with your career and unexpected out of the blue surprises where your income is concerned. You might feel in control one day and out of control the next. This transit will bring satisfaction from the gifts it bestows to your sign, Pisces. Although this transit can bring about strange occurrences and things that cannot be explained, your natural ability to navigate through the fog of Uranus should be less challenging for you than it might be for some others close to you. This is bound to be an exciting time for you, especially where your career and income are concerned. Listen to the fire signs of Aries, Leo and a Sagittarius as they will bring you much luck in these areas, Pisces.

The New Moon is in your sign Pisces on March 4th. This could be a time to review your current opportunities concerning possible new love relationships and other areas regarding your personal life. 

Full Moon is in Virgo on March 19th in your 7th House of marriage and business contracts. You may be offered opportunities which need to be solidified through contracts and may prove to be surprising and unpredictable.

In terms of love, March is going to be a standout month for all Pisces, coupled or single. It's time to come down to earth and assess your romantic life realistically. True love will stand the test of time but for those of you with lingering doubts, follow your already famous intuition and see what develops. It might get loud but you will know where you stand especially on 3/27 when Venus comes for a visit to your sign. The signs of Taurus, Libra and Aquarius will help you sort out things, while a Gemini and a Virgo could be weighing heavily on your mind.
