Fire Moons: Aries, Leo, Sagittarius
All the twelve zodiac signs are connected with one of the four elements: fire brings enthusiasm, earth is grounding, air engages communication, and water helps us feel. These elements are further shaped by their modaility: cardinal (starts), fixed (sustains), and mutable (shifts and changes).
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 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.
In Tropical Astrology there are three fire signs that the sun, moon, and all the other planets travel through: Aries, Leo, Sagittarius. Learn more each one below as a way to connect with their unique signature energy.

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.
Aries: The Spark
+ Initiate yourself into a new cycle by taking action for a cause
+ Revive your enthusiasm and tap into your warrior energy
+ Was I being too impulsive?
+ I AM bold, I AM brave, challenge awaits
Act on your calling for the New Moon in Aries in March/April. This cardinal fire sign initiates the wheel of the zodiac and bursts onto the scene in Spring. Allow it help you clear the path forward.
Leo: The Hearth
+ Let leadership, loyalty, and love radiate from you
+ Call on the spirit of play and allow it to be contagious
+ Invite laughter and creativity to guide your inner child into carefree expression
+ Connect with your self-confidence. (I’m not self-centered, I am centered in myself!)
Step into to the warmth of the New Moon in Leo in July/August. This fixed fire sign radiates brilliance and generosity. Notice if you need to step into the spotlight and be seen, or step back and give others a chance to shine.
Sagittarius: The Shooting Star
+ Sense the return of optimism and see the big picture (just make sure to take off the rose colored glasses)
+ See where all paths converge, quest for unity, and bring the pieces of the puzzle together
+ Spontaneity and adventure are calling you to explore, learn, and grow
+ Higher mind, higher self, higher power, higher education, higher and higher
Ask for a miracle and set off on an adventure for the New Moon in Sagittarius in November/December. This mutable fire sign can see in all directions - way beyond the horizon.

There are three fire moons (Aries, Leo, Sag) x 12 months = at least 36 fire moons every year. Plenty of opportunities to take passionate action!
