Leo Full Moon’s Lesson in Love 🌕

Can you find anything positive about her?” I asked my teenage daughter about a teacher she was struggling with. “Anything you admire? Or are you only focused on what annoys, frustrates, or outrages you?”

She hesitated. “I guess I can find something good about her…”

“That’s where you place your focus. Appreciate her gifts, acknowledge the good in her— if you can find a way to genuinely compliment her on what you admire, it will go so far! Not everyone will do things the way you want, and no one is perfect—but everyone longs to be seen and appreciated.

When you choose to see the goodness in someone, you open the door to connection. That’s how bridges are built.”

I knew it wasn’t easy for her to make the shift at first—but she did. And over time, their relationship transformed. Today, they’re actually close!

And that, is what this Leo Full Moon is all about.

With the Full Moon around the corner, love and relationships take center stage—not just romance, but the full spectrum of how we give and receive love.

And Leo energy has so much to teach us about love…

Our current Inner Circle Astrologer, Joe Landewehr, shared in his Full Moon Forecast:

“When you're solid in who you are, you naturally radiate generosity of spirit. Leo overflows with love and abundance and gives freely.”

But Joe emphasized the role of authenticity in the way Leo loves… sharing that it's not about denying how you feel, but about finding an authentic place to connect with yourself and others. And from there, the Leo generosity can pour forth.

Joe emphasized that true love isn’t just about ease—it’s about showing up authentically, even (or especially) when it’s hard.

And if this has been especially challenging for you the “powerhouse” of this Full Moon—Uranus forming a tense T-Square, may bring an unexpected twist, creating opportunities for breakthroughs where you've felt stuck in the past.

Joe also gave us some practical tips for working with this Full Moon's Energy:

(Consider choosing ONE practice that resonates to harness this potent moment.)

💖 Practice Radical Authenticity – “Your job is just to be you. Not to make others be like you.” Take time to reflect: Where are you holding back your true self in relationships? Are you trying to change others instead of accepting them?

💖 Embrace Vulnerability – “Vulnerability is at the heart of courage.” Is there something genuine you've been afraid to share with a loved one? This is the time.

💖 See the Best in Others – “If you can see the best in people despite their flaws, you help bring out the best in them.” Try looking for the highest potential in someone who challenges you.

💖 Build Bridges – “Make amends with someone you've had a falling out with… because the relationship itself is more important than being right.” Who could you reach out to with an open heart?

💖 Love Unconditionally – “It's easy to love someone who loves you back. The challenge is to love those who can’t reciprocate.” Can you send love to someone, even if they can’t return it right now?

💖 Perform Random Acts of Kindness – Brighten someone’s day with small, unexpected gestures. Leave a kind note, express appreciation, or surprise someone in service with a heartfelt thank-you.

Leo reminds us that love isn’t just a feeling—it’s an action, a practice, a way of being.

And just as my daughter learned with her teacher, when we shift our focus from what’s wrong with someone to what’s right, we create space for them to grow into their best selves—while allowing ourselves to blossom in the process.

Remember, astrology shows us that true connection isn’t about perfection—it’s about presence, authenticity, and the courage to show up with an open heart.

In the spirit of BIG LEO ENERGY, I encourage you to remember: You ARE love.

As Rumi so beautifully said:
“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.”

And most importantly, take care of yourself. Loving yourself first is what allows you to show up fully in love for others.

All my best,
Amanda
