Intuitive Message for the Leo Full Moon:
The Wisdom of the Heart
by Julia Bondi
We the People…are in the spotlight as the primary season heats up. Do our Leo-like candidates have heart, do they have spine, and do they shine? What does each of them wish to create for them and for us? It is easy to listen to the glitz and glamour of the campaign rhetoric allowing them to entertain us with messages, promises and the lure of the simple fix. How can we avoid being seduced by their marketing and propaganda? Are they celebrities or servants, Leo or Aquarius? Will they serve or make hay for themselves and their entourage? What is behind the current extravaganza of campaigning with polls, market tested slogans and the right outfit and image?
If the election of 2008 is the most important one of our lives, not only for the United States but for the rest of our shrinking globe then how must we determine who is the right candidate for the job right now? The Moon is in Leo as we enter this full Moon week during the primaries and caucuses which may determine the shape of the race on both sides of the aisle as well as the dynamic of the November race. Leo, the ruler of royalty, celebrity, and stardom, is receiving the light of the Aquarian Sun. The Aquarian Sun warns us to look beyond who we like best, who we thinks presents the way we imagine a president should be and far beyond who agrees with us the most. Aquarius urges us to consider that we are ever closer to the coming Aquarian Age, the age of brotherhood and sisterhood, when humankind must find the way to live together cooperatively, respectfully as caring global citizens. We will survive or perish together. We will thrive and succeed together.
The United States of America is a country with the Moon in Aquarius, a position which sheds light on the deepest motives and hopes of our founding generation. They were students of the Enlightenment awakened to a vision of a world of individual freedom, universal justice and the pursuit of each ones divine potential. The Leo pursuit of happiness was understood to be the potential to pursue our individual Aquarian dreams. The founders left us a vision for a future they knew was possible even though they could only offer us the vision and an imperfect foundation to reach that vision. The foundation has not only endured but we have breathed new life into our Aquarian vision as we have granted liberty and full humanity to slaves, minorities, women and immigrants binding together people of many faiths, philosophies and histories.
Who among our candidates most represents the founding vision of America as the land of the free and the light of the world offering new life to the masses yearning to breathe free? We may know before the Moon is new who our candidates will be. Will they take us forward into Aquarius or backward into Pisces? As imperative and powerful as our personal Piscean faith is in our own lives, the world is now too large for anyone to ignore humanities need for a universal approach to the world’s needs and potential.
During this full moon take a moment and meditate or pray or ask for guidance to look beyond the candidates’ presentations and one’s own preferences to see into the hearts and souls of the candidates to know if their vision is true and if they seek to serve all of us. Leo offers us the full wisdom of our heart when we can awaken from the seduction of the superficial celebration of the candidates and look into their Aquarian essence.
