She is looking forward to the Full Snow Moon in Leo on Sunday, February 5, at 11:28 a.m. MST.  Since the moon is directly tied to our emotions, it will not be an exception for the positive energy from this moon phase to make us feel excited and motivated as we pursue our innermost passions.  Welcoming the Snow Moon will allow us to embrace the stillness and silence of this winter moon, among the beauty and mystical tranquility of the freshly fallen snow that covers the Juniper and Ponderosa Pines.   An abundance of love will surround us, so we will have the primal desire to become more open to receiving it.  A push for considering our emotional needs will occur when we spend even a little more time outdoors to rejuvenate our spirits.  This quiet time of introspection in the coldness of winter will lead to soulful outpourings as the Celtic Tree Month of Ash begins on the mountaintop.
