What Does the Last Quarter Moon in Leo Reflect?

Last-quarter Moon in Leo: a need for approval is ready to be released. The invitation is to loosen the tie between feeling loved and being applauded.

While the last-quarter Moon moves through Leo, the emotional tone of these days turns toward releasing a need for approval. A way of seeking worth through being admired may have run its course, and the heart is invited to let it go. Letting go here means loosening the tie between feeling loved and being applauded.

The gift of this moment is freeing self-worth. The tension is clinging to an image, defending how you want to be seen. Let yourself set down the performance, and let one honest act of unwitnessed self-love remind you that your worth was never in the applause.
