Monday’s First Quarter or Waxing Half Moon was in Scorpio, challenging the Sun in its home sign of Leo, the lion. At the first quarter, we may find our own challenges coming up with respect to our intentions.
The Sun rules – is at home in – the sign of Leo, where it has been since last Wednesday. Leo is associated with royalty, leadership, and our creative, expressive energy. Leo is associated with the heart, both metaphoric and literal, and the quality of courage. The lion in the photo was one of my neighbors at the family cabin a few years ago!
Our prompts for the short writing session were these:
- Name some characteristics of a good leader; or
- Describe the Sun, literally, metaphorically, or otherwise.
Our longer writing period began with these prompts:
- If you could be Queen for a Day, what would your first move be? or
- What does it mean to ‘take heart’?
