Fire Moons: Aries, Leo, Sagittarius
Fire reminds us that heat rises and expands to warm the heart. It inspires action, and when fire is overactive, it can lead to irritation and inflammation.
Fire is formless light. It dances and sings. Pure gold in motion.

Exploring the energy of the moon in fire signs is a way to get in touch with your call to action, your leadership, and your inner light.
Fire is The Pulse of Creation
It can take the form of a single spark that brings light into a dark spaces. A candle. The sacred fire of Vesta, the eternal flame in Ancient Rome. A wildfire. The sun, and all the stars in the galaxy.
Fire is hungry and will consume all that it touches. It is bold and protects us from fear of the unknown. The heat of fire is transformational and helps us with digestion. It brings inspiration, and lights the way to clear vision. Fire is created through friction, the heat of passion. It fuels hot tempers and fans the flames of loyal love.
The moon connects us with wise and loving Mother energy. Known as a “personal planet” in astrology, the moon represents the needs of the inner child, the inner world, moods and emotions, and shows us how we feel at home with ourselves and in the world.
In Western Astrology there are three fire signs that the sun, moon, and all the other planets travel through: Aries, Leo, Sagittarius.
