Writer: Shelby MarieShelby Marie

Updated: Feb 14

On February 12, 2025, at 5:53 AM PT, the Full Moon is stepping into bold and radiant Leo. This Full Moon in Leo is encouraging us to step into our authenticity, embrace our creativity, and shine unapologetically. It is also known as the Snow Moon, a time for self-expression, passion, and releasing what no longer serves us.

Leo, ruled by the Sun, embodies confidence, leadership, and creative energy. This Full Moon asks:

Where are you dimming your light?

How can you embrace your magnetic radiance?

Where can you express more of your creative energy?


With an opposition to the Sun in Aquarius, this lunation highlights the balance between personal expression (Leo) and community connection (Aquarius). Additionally, a square to Uranus in Taurus brings unexpected shifts, urging us to remain flexible and open to new possibilities.

Full Moon in Leo Rituals with Akouo

Full Moons are a time of release, celebration, and energetic alignment.


1. Fire Ritual 🔥

Since Leo is a fire sign, working with flame energy is especially potent.


What You’ll Need:


fire ritual of burning paper with candle flame

Steps:

  1. Set Your Space – Light your Akouo candle, take a deep breath, and ground your energies.

  2. Reflect – Journal on what fears, doubts, or limitations you’re ready to release.

    🥀Self-Reflection Prompts:

    • Where have I been holding back my authentic expression?

      • What experience is the root of this limitation?

        • How old was I?

        • How did I feel (the emotions experienced)?

        • How can my present self provide that past self? Comfort, words of affirmation, strength, etc.?

        • How do I see myself showing up and actively practicing this now?

    • What creative projects, desires, or passions do I want to fully embrace?

      • What blocks or limitations am I repeating that are inhibiting me from embracing my creativity?

  3. Fire Release Ritual – Carefully burn the journal page (or a condensed portion if you want to keep the deep reflections) with the candle flame.

  4. Seal the Energy – Place the burning paper in a fire safe dish, visualizing the flames and ash as transmuting your limitations into your limitless potential.

  5. Affirmation – Hover your hands over the candle and say your intention:

    Ex:“My limitations no longer hold me back. I fully embrace my authenticity. My unique essence is seen by all who gravitate.”

  6. Close with Gratitude – Thank your highest self, guides, and Sources for the held space, messages, and guidance.


2. Luxurious Full Moon Bath Soak for Rejuvenation 🌊

Full Moons are powerful for cleansing and energetic renewal. A ritual bath infused with Akouo’s wildcrafted bath soak helps release stagnant energy while nourishing your body and spirit.


What You’ll Need:

  • Akouo Bath Soak (our blend: calms the mind + body, protects your energetic aura, and opens your third eye to receive intuitive connection via: visual, sensations, or audio.)

  • A journal + pen

  • Optional: Akouo Ritual Candle for ambiance


bath with journal, pen, candle, and glass of water

Steps:

  1. Set Intentions – While filling up the tub and steeping the bath soak, speak your intentions into the water:

    Ex: “I cleanse myself of the limitations holding me back and I fully embrace my authenticity. I embrace being seen.”

  2. Play Music that Supports your Intentions – I, personally, enjoy ambient spiritual frequency music as it remains peaceful with no added percussions, quickness or change in frequency, or words that may distract me from my own channels of receiving and hearing messages. Try this Spotify Playlist for 528hz frequencies.

  3. Reflect – 🥀Self-Reflection Prompts:

    • Where have I been holding back my authentic expression?

      • What experience is the root of this limitation?

        • How old was I?

        • How did I feel (the emotions experienced)?

        • How can my present self provide that past self? Comfort, words of affirmation, strength, etc.?

        • How do I see myself showing up and actively practicing this now?

    • What creative projects, desires, or passions do I want to fully embrace?

      • What blocks or limitations am I repeating that are inhibiting me from embracing my creativity?

  4. Visualization – As you bathe, visualize the limitations being cleansed from your body. Feel the guidance of light, playful, and radiant Leo energy being received to assist you in your forward moving actions and expression.

  5. Close with Gratitude – After your bath, thank your highest self, guides, and Sources for the held space, messages, and guidance.


3. Express Yourself Through Embodiment Movement 💃🏻

Leo energy is about play, joy, and uninhibited self-expression. Move your body intuitively— through somatic embodiment dance and/or yoga. Put on music that energizes your spirit and allow yourself to move without judgment. Be guided by the curiosity and freedom of how the music moves you. Be open to > close eyes, feel body, caress body where you feel sensations arise, sway, make sounds (HAH, HUM, etc.), cry, laugh, primal shout, etc.

Ask yourself questions when emotions or experiences arise: where does this stem from, what is this teaching me, how would I show up differently + in the form of my higher self, gratitude for the wisdom, connection to source to remain in alignment.

💛 Mantra: "I am embodied. My unique radiance is what is magnetic."




Embrace the Leo Full Moon’s Magic 🌕✨

Step into confidence, release limitations and blocks, and move forward feeling embodied of your authentic radiance. 🔥
