How The January 2019 Full Moon Will Affect You, Based On Your Zodiac Sign

The January 2019 full moon is rising in the gregarious and confident sign of Leo on Jan. 21, and it also marks a total lunar eclipse that’s bound to rock our energy and give us some classic full moon feels. Like a regular full moon only stronger, a lunar eclipse focuses attention on your emotions, intimate relationships, and your home and family. A total lunar eclipse has an even stronger influence on your private life.

The sun enters Aquarius just hours before this moon rises in its full Leo glory — and because Leo is all about fiery self-expression while Aquarius leans more toward focusing on the collective with a cool, objective air, we’ll need to balance these themes during this moon. It’s bound to be a zinger, and we’re all going to be analyzing the lunar-ruled parts of ourselves, which include our inner feelings, deepest relationships, and comfort zones.

Honestly, every now and then we all fall apart, and it may just happen during this upcoming full moon. But that’s fine! Fall apart! Be a puddle on the floor! Evaporate into the ether! You’ll be fine — the key is to allow yourself to be flexible and malleable, and not get too attached to any single decision, situation, or outcome. This lunar eclipse falls in the sign of Leo, creating passionate decisions on how we can move forward to attain our truest and highest visions of ourselves. We’re going to be seeing our potential futures a little more clearly, as the illuminating powers of the full moon will help to light up new perspectives. The moon will be eclipsed, yes, so the road ahead may still be hazy, but you should take advantage of the ability you’ll have to tap into fresh points of view and be free-flowing.

But a quick word of advice: Beware of shiny objects. You’re likely to be both tempted and easily distracted by all that glitters — but just because it glitters doesn’t mean it’s gold, sweetheart. With this moon square Uranus, you might start feeling super bored in your routines and relationships. Acknowledging this restlessness is good, and while it may require you to take action down the road, doing so impulsively during this luminary isn’t necessary. Just allow yourself to see the many roads in front of you and focus on being your best self.

Overall, this full moon is going to be a good time to just chill and focus on you. We will all be forced to be a little selfish, which isn’t a bad thing. Move towards your heart’s path, be a diva, and over the top. Most importantly, DO YOU!
