What it means

The Full Moon in Leo faces the Sun in Aquarius: the individual against the group. Creative work, romance and your need to be appreciated come to a head.

Celebrate what you made, and notice if you are waiting for applause that the group cannot give. Joy you share freely tends to come back.

A Full Moon happens when the Moon is opposite the Sun and fully lit. In astrology it is the peak of the monthly cycle: what started around the New Moon becomes visible, feelings run higher, and something is ready to be finished, celebrated or released. Because the Sun and Moon sit in opposite signs, every Full Moon highlights a balance between two areas of life.

The sky around this Full Moon

A tense angle to Mars raises tempers and impatience. Move your body, and do not force outcomes.

Sun, the traditional ruler of Leo, is at 13°04′ Aquarius at the moment of the Full Moon. The house it falls in for you is where this lunation turns practical — see "by rising sign" below.

Nearby stations: Uranus turns direct on February 3 at 27°28′ Taurus. A planet standing still close to a lunation tends to make its themes louder for a few days.

Retrograde at this Full Moon: Jupiter and Uranus. Their topics favour review and repair over brand-new launches.

Lunations in the same sign come in pairs about six months apart. This Full Moon completes the cycle opened by the New Moon in Leo on July 24, 2025, at 2°08′ Leo. Look back at what you began or hoped for then: it is likely to be what comes to a head now.
