The full moon in Leo on February 1, 2026, will usher in a period of profound change, explains Jetteke Lexmond, founder of Moonsisters. After the “Wolf Full Moon” on January 3, the second full moon of the year has been dubbed the “Storm Moon” due to the weather patterns that characterize this period. It will occur at 11:10 p.m. on Sunday in Leo and promises a “powerful turnaround.”
Leo symbolizes self-expression, creativity, and leadership from the heart. This full moon allows us to see where we have been holding back, dimming the light, or continuing to play someone else’s role. Emotions can be intense as the Moon invites us to honestly assess who we have become and what we have experienced. Neptune’s transit in Aries adds energy for action—spirituality is now not only felt, but also embodied.

This Full Moon calls for courage: to stand up for your inner fire and not conform to expectations. Old images dissolve, opening the way for more honest self-expression. You can fully feel your emotions and give space to what wants to be seen. The transition from inner awareness to visible life occurs naturally.

The emotional full moon on February 1st will be intense and prophetic. Suppressed feelings related to self-esteem, visibility, loss, or creativity may surface. People will feel more open, vulnerable, or acutely emotional. Due to the astrological climate (Neptune in Aries, activation of Uranus, upcoming conjunction of Saturn and Neptune), feelings of restlessness, urgency for change, sleep disruption, or bursts of creative energy are possible.

Full moon is not about becoming someone else, but about showing who you already are. The heart becomes the most accurate guide.
Snowfall February 1, 2026 — will be most affected by:
- Leo: self-expression, leadership, truth of the heart
- Aquarius: Balance of Collective Responsibility and Personal Authenticity
- Taurus: values, security, and attachment
- Scorpio : depth of emotions, power dynamics, hidden truth
Fire signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) will feel a strong desire to act and express themselves, especially with Neptune transiting Aries. Planets or aspects near the first degrees of Leo, Aquarius, Taurus, or Scorpio can make this period an important turning point.
