The full moon in Leo has many names. It's called the Snow Moon, the Hungry Moon, the Bald Eagle Moon and the Storm Moon. And just as the playful cat has many forms, as soft as a purring kitten or as ferocious as a lion on the hunt, there's an opportunity this week to take on the form and tone most suited to your mission. Let the theatrical Leo Moon be like the cast list that goes up after the auditions are over. You got the part you wanted. Now which one was that?

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You seek to understand people, and the real understanding takes time, because early impressions can't show you patterns. What matters is what people do repeatedly, how they show up and what they follow through on. This is what you base your trust on. Subtlety and beauty draw you in. Loud attention grabs repel you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). In certain respects, the team gets what you're doing, agrees with you and cheers you on. This week also shows missions best made solo, at least at first. Solo efforts offer more room for curiosity. You'll figure out what part of it is worth exploring for you, and it will be so satisfying to steer things in your own direction.

Solo efforts offer more room for curiosity. You'll figure out what part of it is worth exploring for you, and it will be so satisfying to steer things in your own direction.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). People rarely ask for what they really want. So you approach many situations this week as if they are studies in human nature. The one who asks for your opinion really wants your approval. The one who asks for your approval actually wants your financial contribution. Whatever the underlying want is, you figure it out.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). This week, your presence, choices and work speak to the unmistakable truth: no one is you. You hold yourself to high standards, refining all you do because you know it's the extra polish that makes an impression. You seek feedback, but your own self-review is really what makes your voice so distinct that it naturally stands out.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). If something has made feeling close to others a bit hard at times, it means you're beginning to notice and guess about these obstacles to intimacy. Simply bringing it into awareness with a little tenderness is powerful. Noticing your patterns with curiosity, rather than judgment, can gently loosen their hold.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). What you consider a small win is actually quite remarkable given the circumstances. And what you consider a loss is so minor. You are a soul doing the soul's work, and you're not responsible for the accounting this week. Just know you are doing so much better than you think.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). A beautiful idea stays beautiful when you hold it with an open palm. You'll deftly manage your ideas about special relationships and projects. Grip too tightly and you crush it, too loosely and you drop it. You'll feel your way this week, and perfectly sense when to support, when to release and when to simply let it unfold.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Even when it's your responsibility to fill a role, you are fully aware that all people have strengths and weaknesses and most "casting" is a matter of fit, not inherent worthiness. When you make comparisons, you're not doing it out of judgment or adulation. You're simply trying to find the right person for the job. And this week, you will.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You can be amenable to suggestion, amicable in nature and a general all-around pleaser and still opt out of requests. Their asks and wishes are only suggestions. You are the only one who can command yourself to make moves. This week, don't forget to ask, "So what would please me?"

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Comfort is dreamy, but there are so many things you want that you are willing to be inconvenienced, awkward and even pained to get. You are also willing to be uncomfortable for no guaranteed result, because to explore and expand outside of your comfort zone leads to being more comfortable with yourself and in the world at large.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You know your boundaries theoretically, but there's something funny you'll notice this week. You have a different set of rules for each person. Some you are willing to let closer to you. Maybe it's about trust, but more likely there is attraction, interest and curiosity in play. You'll observe yourself with honesty, learning and loving yourself even more.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Sometimes your tender heart for the experience of others feels like a burden. But as much as it costs you, it pays you more and in the most enriching currencies. This week, you'll be doing something remarkable that would be impossible if not for your ability to put yourself in the other person's shoes.
