The Leo Full Moon on February 1st brings some fiery, playful energy our way as we start the month. Leo is known for its dramatic flair and helps us move from the heart, but at its core, it’s about getting us to lean into simplicity.
How can we take things that feel complicated, heavy, and confusing, and bring the energy of simplicity to soften and resolve them?
Full Moons are always a powerful time for release, making this the perfect time to let go of any heaviness and shift into a simpler way of being.
You can learn more about the astrology behind this Full Moon here, but if you want to work with these energies more proactively, here is a ritual for you to try.
This ritual can be performed anytime between January 27 and February 10. It is a fun ritual that can help you to make the most of these energies. I hope you enjoy it!
Leo Full Moon Ritual February 2026
You will need:
- Aura cleansing tool of choice
- Pen and paper
- Lotus Compassion Cosmic Meditation
- Scissors
- 2026 Horoscope Report (optional)
Directions:
1.) Start by cleansing your aura using your tool of choice. As you cleanse, recite the following affirmation:
“I cleanse my mind, body, and soul; all that is old is now leaving my space and my body. Fresh energy is welcome, new inspirations are welcome, kindness, gratitude, peace, happiness, love, healing, patience, and intelligence are all welcome. I infuse my body with love. I infuse my space with clarity and peace. I am aligned in the highest expression for my soul. I am one with all that is good.”
2.) Get nice and comfortable and begin your Lotus Compassion meditation. This short meditation will help to open your heart and get you in a state of receiving, which will support you through the rest of the ritual.
3.) Once the meditation is complete, get your pen, paper, and scissors and cut 10 squares or strips. On each strip of paper, write down 10 affirmations, positive messages, or notes of encouragement. It doesn’t matter the theme or what they say, just write down 10 affirmations/mantras/messages that come to your mind. They can be generic/cliched or more unique to you.
4.) Once you are done, fold up the strips of paper and place them in a pile. Mix them up so you are unaware of what is written on the papers.
For best results, DO NOT READ STEP 5 until you have done steps 3 & 4.
5.) Now, place your hand on your heart, and think of a situation or question you would like clarity on. Now, set an intention to pick a piece of paper that will bring you insight about the past and how this situation may have been coming up for you in the past. Using your intuition, pick the paper you feel most drawn to.
Next, set an intention to pick a piece of paper that will bring you insight about the present and how you may wish to handle this situation in the present. Pick the paper you feel most drawn to.
Finally, set an intention to pick a piece of paper that will bring you insight about the future and the outcome of your situation. Pick the paper you feel most drawn to.
Open and read your affirmations and see how they resonate! You may find that the affirmations you chose offer you insights or a deeper understanding of how to approach your situation. If the affirmation doesn’t resonate, that’s ok, keep it close and refer back to it – you may find that in time it makes sense to you.
6.)If using, read your horoscope report for 2026. See if any further messages jump out for you, or if your affirmations are tied to something in your horoscope report or the cosmic skies.
7.) Your ritual is now complete. I hope you enjoyed it!
