“So, well, we have to look at the fact that this new moon is in Leo, and the sun is this is new moon is ruled by Leo. And by the sun and the sun is in Leo, in its own domicile, in its own home. The sun is strong in Leo. So the sun, like I said, it’s your visible self. It’s about being, you know, leadership, being a leader. Leaders in the world, you know, are highlighted. Politicians. Leo energy is about creating, creation, being a creator. It’s the life force, the source of life. You know, from the sun you can see, you know, your vitality. Most likely, if you are born with the sun in Leo, you know, you have a good vitality. You know, your health is good for health, is good for strength.”
In astrology, the Sun represents our life force, our will, vitality, purpose, being a leader, our spirit energy, our ego, our personality. It creates a splash of vitality in the house where it is placed, shining light, self expression, goals, creative expression. The sun is your visible self, leaders, organisers, strength.
Leo is ruled by the Sun. Leo represents I AM-ness, a hero, courageous, dramatic, acting, a leader, proud, determined. Display of courage, determination, willpower, tremendous strength, magnanimous leisure. The visible self, the creator, creative expression, being proud and bossy, to put on a show like acting in a theater. Love for a lover, passion for a creative project, giving life to a child. What’s fun? What sets your inner child on fire? Child like joy and play. What fills your heart with happiness, love and courage? Expressing your self authentically and creatively.
Leo energy in your 3rd house is about expressing yourself authentically with people in your close environment, in how you communicate your ideas.
Uranus conjunct Sun = Wild card, unexpected sudden event, anything can happen, a sudden breakthrough. From closure to action, Uranus gets things unstuck and moving again.
South Node in Leo, North Node in Aquarius (Nodal theme) = Tension between the heart (Leo) and mind (Aquarius), between the personal and impersonal, between the “I” and “They”. A strong will, a well developed Will, the fullness of the ego, to run the show vs Aquarius a brilliant mind in the service of humanity. A strong Will, guided by a brilliant mind in the service of humanity, is a blessing for all concerned. A natural leader, full of dynamic, creative energy enjoying mixing with many people that make up his active professional sphere. Finding balance between being a leader and being a team player. Creative needs of Leo, and the urge for variety more typical of Aquarius. Networking is particularly beneficial, circulating is often key. A meeting of the mind and heart. When in a position of authority, to radiate a quiet confidence born of experience and reassuring inner strength. We make progress by a constant spiraling back and forth between the inner world and the outer one, the personal and the political, the self and circumstance. High drama. To use personal attention to the benefit of others. Satisfying the security needs of being in charge, and at the same time fulfilling a greater longing to participate and contribute, constitutes the primary vocational challenge.
North Node in Aquarius: the courage to break free undeniably towards something that’s never been done before. And then on a personal level; sometimes when you lose / you win. Journalism, intellectual, social commentary. A denial to acknowledge personal needs and personal issues is the mark of an ego in denial, even when one is otherwise guided by a brilliant mind. North Node = your free will, your future.
Aquarius = revolutionary, the people, humanitarian activities, social experiments, a participant. Symbolised by the water bearer which pours knowledge freely, and information is used as liberation.
The Aquarius Age: In the Christian cosmology, this is known as the revelation times, the apocalypse; this doesn’t mean the end of the world; it means exposure to beasts and plagues and to corrupt power until a renewal of who is in power where there will be decentralization, transparency, and peer to peer connection; divine justice in divine timing. This means the end times when wealth is concentrated between characters disturbed people. Those egos are on steroids to a pathological degree, these are the same people who rule the world. This is a time when leaders are corrupted, when truth is rejected while false Messiahs and false Gurus rise in power. However, no one escapes the fact that karma is action, that Maat exists, Maat judges the heart; Maat – the heart is light from truth.
South Node in Leo: is about letting go of the ego that is standing in your way, and realize that there are other people that you can work with once you open your heart. We have outgrown something, your favorite pair of shoes don’t fit you anymore. We have outgrown the Leonian qualities of the past 9 and half years. South node in Leo, you have to say goodbye to your favorite thing, your favorite pair of shoes, that are either worn out because you wore them so much, they are broken and something that has given you great strength can’t continue. This is a kind of heartbreak. We talk about loyalty, being honest to a fault, kind to a fault, loyal to a fault, committed or strong to a fault has to be let go of. About loyalty, pride, royalty, protection and strength, love the love we have for children, arts, dramatic, theaters. Unresolved ego problem; not delegating authority, to believe no one can do a job as good as you can. Taking a heroic role. Dramatic, exaggerating, embellishing our acts, an erratic ego; can lead to feeling depressed and worthless because of underlying self esteem issues. Releasing and clearing self expression. South Node = Your fate, the past.
New Moon conjunct South Node in Leo: Some attachment to an expectation, or the need for validation could end or needs to be diminished before the new begins. Or it’s simply the beginning of the end in order to make space for the new to begin. (South-Node with an eclipse means we have to let go of something, of what’s comfortable but holds us back). Moon = your emotional self.
The twelve signs of the zodiac could be thought of as six basic polarities, with the two signs opposing each other across the horoscope wheel are opposite sides of the same coin. The Aquarius-Leo polarity is about the relationship of an individual to a group, and about what happens in our individual psyche when we interact with a larger group. Aquarius also knows that we feel isolated because we seek a connection deeper than superficial interactions. If we truly want to experience a profound level of exchange with other human beings, we have to go inside ourselves and connect with our hearts. Leo teaches us that true communion with other human beings can only be found in our hearts. To become a true Aquarian, we have to integrate our Aquarian polarity: Leo. How does an individual interact and integrate with and and impact a group? The goal of the Leo-Aquarius polarity is to support individuality in the context of the collective unit. The group works best when our individual creativity fruitfully contributes to the welfare of all.
