Prompt:

*Check what houses this Full Moon is happening in within your chart (house meanings above)*

Take some time to reflect on the past 6 months (from last August’s New Moon in Leo) - where were you then (based on the houses this full moon is impacting) in comparison to where you are now. Answer the following questions for yourself:

• What about yourself or what in your life have you grown proud of since last August? What about this makes you feel gratified?
• In what ways has your self love grown (or not) & how has that impacted your connections?
• What and who has been your sources of pleasure, fun and joy?
• In what ways have you been able to connect with, honor and hold sacred these things and people?
• What ways do you allow your inner child to express his/herself?
• In what ways (or not) have you been able to make space for, show up & even heal your inner child & childhood wounds? How has this shifted your life and purpose?
• What are some ways you will celebrate & love on yourself today & going forward?
• Note anything else that comes up for you during this exercise.

*When the Moon moves into her waning phase, we can take what we’ve learned and reflected on to make any adjustments, hone in & build on the things that have worked for us, cut out any excess &/or detrimental patterns.
