This morning, we had a Leo Solar Eclipse. While we didn’t experience a full eclipse here in the mountains, its energy still carries some major implications.
Some insight from :
The Leo Solar Eclipse marks both an ending and a beginning. Sitting with the South Node of the Moon, it can close doors to parts of our past that are no longer aligned with where we’re headed, while the New Moon opens the way for something new.
There can be a quickening during eclipse season - a feeling of being catapulted toward a path we can’t quite see yet. The invitation is to feel our way forward by listening to the wisdom of the heart.
Solar eclipses can ignite a six-month transformation in the area of your birth chart where 20° of Leo falls. With this eclipse alongside the South Node, a pattern, relationship, or chapter that has served its purpose may be ready to be released, creating space for what wants to emerge.
It’s been nine years since an eclipse fell in Leo and 18 years since a Leo eclipse aligned with the South Node. Think back to what was unfolding in your life then. Similar themes may be resurfacing now, but from an entirely new perspective.
Leo’s invitation is to live from the heart—to love boldly, follow our passions, create beauty, and unapologetically express who we are. To remember that we are here to create, to shine, and to let our inner light be seen.
But Leo also carries a shadow: ego, pride, the desire for recognition, and the need to feel important. This eclipse may illuminate where we’re seeking validation outside ourselves rather than trusting what we already know within.
The invitation is to return to the heart. To remember what makes us come alive, what we are here to create, and what can only be expressed through our unique selves.
To become the source of our own light - and have the courage to step into the life calling us forward. ✨
