At , the Moon moves into Virgo.
Confidence grows, and with it the wish to be seen. Leo days suit performances, celebrations, and generous gestures. Only pride needs watching.
Full moon
The Moon stands opposite the Sun and its whole face is lit. It rises around sunset and shines all night. In lunar tradition, the full moon marks a turning point: what was building culminates, and the weeks of letting go begin.
On its monthly path across the sky, the Moon is now descending: seen from the Northern Hemisphere, each day it crosses the sky a little lower than the day before. In planting tradition, the descending Moon draws strength toward the roots—a time for planting, transplanting, and pruning.

A warm fire day in Leo heats steadily—a good climate for big tasks and for work outdoors in the sun.
Lunar day 14
The fourteenth lunar day stands near the height of the cycle: it suits important beginnings and decisions.
Lunar days are counted from the new moon: day 1 begins at the new moon, and a cycle has 29 or 30 of them. Tradition gives each day its own character.
Health by lunar tradition
In lunar tradition, extra care goes to the heart, back, diaphragm, blood circulation, and arteries.
On Leo days, the back tends to complain more, and gentle exercises help, tradition says.
Sleep is said to come harder at the February full moon: skip caffeine after lunch and eat supper early.
Cat stretches and light backbends are the classic back routine; stop before anything hurts.
February is the height of cold and flu season: sleep enough, eat fermented vegetables and citrus, and air out the rooms briefly but thoroughly.
Food by lunar tradition
- Favored today
- Protein and fruit
Leo days are protein-and-fruit days in lunar tradition. Eggs, fish, lean meat, legumes, and nuts are the day’s staples, and fruit is the traditional pick-me-up. Keep portions moderate: tradition holds that the body feels protein more strongly today, for better and for worse.
At the full moon the body is said to absorb everything, including what you would rather it did not: skip heavy meals, alcohol, and second helpings.
February still draws on the winter pantry: sauerkraut, beets, carrots, and dried fruit. Sprouts on the windowsill are the first fresh vegetable of the year.
Reach for seasonal foods that suit the day: legumes, eggs, and cottage cheese.
Tip of the day: yogurt with fruit for breakfast covers both of the day’s foods in one bowl.
Garden by the moon
- Plant part
- Fruit
February starts the seedlings: on a warm windowsill sow peppers, which germinate best at 77–82°F (25–28°C), and the first tomatoes, which are content with 68–77°F (20–25°C). Finish pruning fruit trees on frost-free days and get the cold frame ready. Check tools and potting mix; the season is close.
Leo days are fruit days: tradition points the gardener to tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, berries, and the orchard. Leo is also the sign of warmth, so water well and mulch.
At the full moon, do not repot houseplants; just water them. It is a good time to tend the stored harvest and check supplies.
A fruit day is made for fruiting vegetables and fruit, right now especially peppers.
Seasonal advice is for the Northern Hemisphere’s temperate zone; south of the equator, swap the seasons. For the best days of the month, see planting by the moon and the lunar hair calendar.
