Full Moon of the Storms
Full Moon on February 5, 2023
By Dikki-Jo Mullen, Astrologer
February’s Full Moon will be exact at 1:28 pm EST on February 5 at 16 degrees Leo 40’. The Storm Moon is among the traditional names given to this lunation. This year it seems especially relevant as winter storms lash across the United States with record low temperatures carrying snow and ice in abundance. The event chart for the Full Moon shows a wide Sun-Saturn conjunction opposing the Moon with a very close square to Uranus at 15 degrees of Taurus. Challenges to democracy and a stormy political climate reflect the inclement weather. Mercury conjoins Pluto in Capricorn. This encourages deep thinking and discovery of truth. A wide applying Venus-Neptune conjunction in Pisces is intensely spiritual and otherworldly. Many can find comfort in connecting with angels and spirit guides. The Pisces placements indicate romance, artistry, a spirit of charity and a desire for peace being embraced by many in the face of the increasing challenges to harmony and well being everywhere.
This Full Moon is in the Sun-Jupiter decanate of Leo, with healing, largesse and wider horizons as some keynotes. The Sabian Symbol for the degree of the February 5th Full Moon is “A man riding a camel followed by attendants”. The meaning is that home is left behind in order to explore a wider universe. A group is on the move. Also the Sabian Symbol portrays a parade honoring special accomplishments
