In the morning, offer a prayer of gratitude to the Moon for its guidance and the renewed energy within your tools.
The Leo Full Moon reminds us to stand in our power, embrace joy, and express our true selves without hesitation. Use this lunar moment to celebrate your courage, amplify your confidence, and shine your inner light for the world to see.
