Partial lunar eclipse in Leo: astrology meaning
A lunar eclipse is a supercharged Full Moon. Astrologers read it as a culmination or release around creativity, romance and self-expression (Leo), with the Sun opposite in Aquarius. It falls near the South Node, traditionally the side of the axis linked to letting go and endings. The Leo–Aquarius axis matters most if you have planets or angles within a few degrees of 2°45′ Leo or Aquarius.
