LEO FULL MOON – February 12, 2025
January's birthstone: amethyst
Title: Snow Full Moon

The February full moon is called the Snow Moon . It occurs on February 12 at 14:53 Central European Time. The name is derived from the snow that usually falls in large quantities in the Northern Hemisphere at this time. It is also sometimes called the Hunger Moon, because the unfavorable conditions made it difficult for Native American tribes to hunt game.

The time of the February full moon is associated with purification, introspection, and new beginnings. February is a month of calm before the spring awakening, a time that supports inner work.

What is introspection? 

When we practice introspection, it means that we turn inward, towards ourselves, to become aware of our own thoughts, feelings, experiences, and also what motivates us. We examine ourselves, we find out what is going on in our mind.

What can we call introspection?

• self-reflection: we think about our own actions, decisions and their reasons,
• conscious perception of emotions: we become aware of why we feel certain emotions, such as joy, fear, sadness, anger, etc.,
• going through and examining our own thoughts: let's focus on what comes to mind and why, let's look for connections between thoughts and feelings,
• Personal values: let's explore what is important to us and what influences our behavior.

Why is introspection important?

• It helps to better understand oneself, which promotes personal growth.
• It supports decision-making, because by understanding our own motivation, we can make decisions more easily.
• It helps process emotions and reduce internal tension.
• It improves relationships because when we understand ourselves better, we communicate more easily with others.

How about introspection?

• Find a place where no one and nothing will disturb you.
• Meditate: calm your mind, focus on the present. Suppress the past and plan for the future.
• Keep a journal: record your thoughts, ideas, feelings, and events each day.
• Play a game with yourself: ask yourself questions like, “Why did this situation upset me?” or “What did I learn about myself today?”
