Something Nubian

As a homeschool mom, teaching about Chakras and Moon Phases is Math, Science, Reading, Writing, Geography, Art, and Music. I’m raising Gen Z and Alpha children, so this helps us discover what we love and like in ourselves and the crafting world.

Self-Expression vs. Community Involvement:

How can one assert their identity with Leo while contributing positively to their community in Aquarius? This could be particularly relevant for self, homeschooling families, or those working towards positive change in their communities.

My Sun seems to have moved on from his love for one thing to another, and my daughters are moving into the trades that they are hoping to pursue as adults and using technology to give them the tools they need to improve in areas that are challenging and feeling the effects of Uranus going direct and squaring with the current planetary alignments.

When they feel frustrated, I encourage them to read or watch an encouraging movie or documentary to clear their heads.

And this is the energy of this blog:

Creative Empowerment:

The Leo full moon is a fantastic time to embrace your creative side. This could be through crafting or DIY projects, I have found this to be the case even with creative approaches to homeschooling.

While the Sun is in Aquarius, it brings with it an energy of innovation, community, and thinking outside the box. The energy of Aquarius encourages breaking free from old patterns and embracing new, more effective ways of living and healing. What a great time to explore alternative healing methods or find unique ways to manage daily life, especially for me, living with fibromyalgia who has to explore unconventional educational methods in homeschooling, or even try new tools and techniques in creative endeavors. Maybe this is something you can try to do as well, doing something new…

Just recently, I have been looking over at our Cricut and realized it has been severely neglected and is indeed in need of attention. When I come up with projects, I slowly perfect them and then teach them to the kids as school projects such as practicing Reiki on them more, teaching Canva (now that I am certified), and showing them how to use Chat GPT and MidJourney.

Ground yourself, as in keeping your ego in check by making decisions that are wise and healthy, as Leo is a fixed fire sun sign and can be strong-willed at times.

Balancing Personal and Collective Needs:

Due to the planets current alignments opposing, squaring, and trine, such as Pluto (transformation), Uranus (innovation) in Taurus, Jupiter (abundance), and Chiron (wounded healer) in Aries, there may be some challenges you might face, such as managing chronic pain or balancing work with family life. Dealing with the energies of Leo and Aquarius can be unsettling; the best advice to offer as a perspective on balancing these aspects is to remain vigor, recognize when egos is not doing any good, and center yourself by walking away, releasing that unhealthy agenda.  

The interplay between Leo’s focus on the self and Aquarius’s focus on the collective can be channeled into a balanced approach to healing and growth. It’s about understanding how personal well-being impacts one’s ability to contribute to the community and vice versa. This might mean recognizing how your health and happiness enable you to be better parents, partners, and community members.

Remember what I said about teaching the children a new skill, sometimes we feel like “I would do better if I did it on my own”, well that only hurts them in the long run …don’t allow Leo Ego to win!

Astrology for Healing and Personal Growth:

As a certified Usui Reiki practitioner, allow me to offer this insight into how the energy of this full moon can be used for healing and breaking generational curses, tying in the chakras and energy work there are two-self-care options that are always at the top of my list you can do with no money which are journaling and yoga!

Write your heart out and focus on heart-centered yoga poses, this can be particularly empowering for those dealing with chronic pain or fibromyalgia. The heart chakra is associated with Leo. This chakra governs our ability to love and be loved, including self-love.

You can write yourself a not-so-love note and burn it.

Each phase of the moon offers different energy for healing and personal growth. The full moon is a time of release and culmination. Let go of what no longer serves you, whether it’s negative thoughts, unhealthy habits, or toxic relationships. This is also an excellent time for gratitude practices, acknowledging the growth and progress you have made.

Give yourself a release party, whether big or small, blow bubbles and have yourself a fruit bowl including all seven chakra colors to balance your energy.

Astrology in Everyday Life:

Everyone deals with challenges, but it is up to us as individuals to utilize all the tools we have to discover ways to improve our situations. As an astrology enthusiast, I studied the moon phases and my placements in the zodiacs, as well as invited my ancestors and spiritual guides during the times that I was the most depressed and full of anxiety. I can say now that I am stronger, and without all of the knowledge that I possess, I would be lost.

Astrology can be a powerful tool for self-discovery and understanding one’s life path. Exploring your natal chart can provide insights into your personality, challenges, and potential. This can be particularly empowering if you’re working on breaking generational curses, as it provides a deeper understanding of inherited traits and patterns.

I will leave you with this, the stars offer guidance, but the power to heal and grow lies within you as the individual.

Let me know if this has helped you in any way.

Sending positive energy.
