New Moon in Leo.revised 2.jpg

The life-giving power of the Sun is the signature of Leo Season and the upcoming New Moon. Our hearts are inspired to reset and start again by the majestic energy of Leo, calling us to express who we are in some area of life that needs our solar energy. As you plant your seeds for new beginnings trust that when you show up authentically and be yourself your light is the pathway for future growth and happiness.

Leo is fixed fire and represents our identity and vitality. Ruled by the Sun, Leo energy is dramatic, creative, loyal, playful, and can lead by example. Naturally expressive, Leo needs to be seen and acknowledged but can fall into patterns of “it’s all about me” if deprived of honest and appropriate attention.

Mercury, the planet of communication is in Leo and sits close to the New Moon firing up bold and innovative ideas and conversations. This increases the need for telling your story so remember to listen as well as you share so that everyone feels heard and appreciated.

Mercury also opposes Jupiter retrograde, now back in the sign of Aquarius which expands our desire for freedom and humanitarian efforts.  This aspect creates tension between reviewing how well you’ve done in realizing personal and professional goals, with the desire for bold and innovative ideas that move you in new directions.  Finding the gift of bringing these two objectives together allows you to energize your current circumstances with continued growth.

Uranus in Taurus continues to shake up the status quo and push us out of our comfort zone during a square to the Moon, motivating us to create new concepts, structures and expressions that fit the times we are in, the circumstances of our lives and who we are personally and collectively. As tensions rise between these two fixed signs remember the power that compassion and an open mind offers in navigating any inner or outer shifts that may occur.

Saturn in Aquarius opposes the Moon creating awareness that as we set new intentions for more “life in our lives” that help us stay on track in joy and personal growth, we also are still on the long journey of sustained effort and work to achieve our goals with greater authenticity.

This New Moon phase signals that to continue to grow, live from our heart and give back to a world that truly needs us, we need to express ourselves joyfully and creatively. That the time has come to show up and be seen in all our personal power and to shine our light with confidence that if we are being genuine, the right appreciation of one precious soul or more will appear.
