Sun in Leo, Moon in Aquarius
This is the Full Moon in Aquarius. Each Full Moon, two signs are tied together in opposition. The needs of the Aquarius Moon now try to blend with the essence of the Leo Sun.
Working in harmony, we are full of live, we feel inherently special, and yet we also know others have needs. We're both performer and observer, never getting too caught up in the glamour of the spotlight (or ego attention) and never being so distant and detached that we fail to participate. We're using our specialness to help humanity on some level (like the Hollywood Actor who uses their fame to raise money for charity).
We appreciate our friends (Aquarius) and can love (Leo) strangers (Aquarius) with the same purity we love those in our inner circle. We can celebrate the specialness (Leo) of our uniqueness (Aquarius).
When these energies are pulling against each other we have the rebel (Aquarius) overthrowing the ruler (Leo). We let ego (Leo) blind us to the fact we're as special as anyone else in society (Aquarius). Each Full Moon brings something up within us and now it's these two polar opposites. Love Given (Leo) and Love Received (Aquarius). Stand on one side too long and immediately the opposing side is activated.
At Full Moon time it's best to blend both energies together, to avoid conflict. Working as a Team, Leo/Aquarius is about love and friendship combined, creativity and detachment and being special and being 'one of the crowd'. You just can't be either/or.

Sun in Leo, Moon in Sagittarius
Under the power of twi fire signs, things always heat up. The Sagittarius Moon needs room to breathe, to grow and learn. To expand its horizons, knowledge base and possibilities. To open up to More - with an optimistic spirit and an open mind and heart.
In Leo Season, the Sagittarius Moon wants to find new creative ways to have fun. Everything is larger than life, and that includes our appetites. Size begins to matter so we may go over the top (on purchases, emotional reactions, any appetite can be supersized). Sagittarius is not about finding limits, its often about excess (absorb enough and you'll find Truth sooner or later). Leo is about living large. Put the teo together and you have a highly dramatic coupling where we can discover more, let our hair down, live with passion and purpose (as long as we avoid intellectual arrogance or judgmental attitudes).
The best of Leo/Sagittarius is to realize our inner child is alive and well in the present. And we can shine light wherever darkness falls, and bring Joy, Optimism and the Enjoyment of the Journey As Destination.

Sun in Leo, Moon in Scorpio
Leo Season is all about brightness, opening our hearts, playing and expressing ourselves in our own unique way. Finding a new Joy in life. Creating.
Under the Scorpio Moon we yearn for more depth, so our passions are aroused, things become more intense (already dramatic under the fiery Leo Sun). Secrets are forged or dug up (The Scorpio Moon is the 4th House under Leo, relating to our private selves, emotional foundations and our family conditioning).
Things can get ugly with two signs as intense (and stubborn) as these. When threatened, under the Scorpio Moon we may retaliate or strike before we're stung. Or we can use this time to heal and transcend old wounds and old triggers.
Creatively (and in all areas) it's time to add more depth to your creativity, more passion to your love (or find it), more intensity to your focus and strip away all that masks your true spiritual self (so expect some ego showdowns and moments when you realize you're acting from your lower nature).
The best of the Leo/Scorpio Combo is a depth of love that doesn't hide, nor does it allow itself to be pulled down into its own self-indulgent shadow. We live loud and proud, with nothing else but our hearts, leading the way.

Sun in Leo, Moon in Libra
Under the Libra Moon we all want beauty, and we yearn for the things that bring a sense of calm: music, candlelight, art, relaxation, good company, beautiful things, quiet scenery etc. In Leo Season this is truly welcome - Leo wants quality and so does Libra. Combined, this energy is about truly opening your heart and sharing yourself with others. Getting along with those in our lives becomes essential because ruffled feathers means rocked boats and Libra Moons want nothing but calm comfort.
Social events go well under this combination as does schmoozing, socializing at special functions/mixers or just having a great time with whomever you're with.
Since Leo is love and Libra is romance, put the two together and you have the makings of beautiful dates, romantic escapes (picnics, walks alone together, evenings by the fire or under the Sunset). We have to be careful we don't ignore or sweep more important things under the carpet for the sake of "peace" but for now, we can live well by enjoying sharing, mutual love and respect (and admiration - think Mutual Fan Club) and celebrating how good life really is.
Happiness is a Choice, and we choose to share our good vibes with others and they with us, under the combo of Leo/Libra.
