Hearth indicators include excessive vitality, vigor, ardour and outgoingness.
Leo is dominated by the solar, which is that massive ball of fireplace that each one planets in our photo voltaic system depend on for mild and sustenance. Leo guidelines over the 5th Home, the Home of Pleasure. The themes of the 5th Home embrace pleasure, enjoyable, play, pleasure, creativity and kids.
We had a stellium in Leo on this New Moon, with the solar, the moon, Venus. Throughout Leo season, the solar is at dwelling in its personal signal, so persons are feeling snug in their very own pores and skin.
Leo signifies the ego, charisma, and being seen in ‘all our mild’ (being absolutely illuminated by the solar). Leo can be related to abundance and ‘all issues golden’–because the solar seems gold within the sky. The Lion’s Gate—which is the celebration of the heliacal rising of Sirius over the Nice Pyramids of Giza—happens throughout Leo Season. This yr, it occurred on Lughnasadh (August 1).

We had an extremely fortunate Minor Grand Trine kind between the solar/moon in Leo (representing the Highest Attainable expression of you), the North Node in Aries (representing your Highest Attainable future/path), and the Mars-Jupiter conjunction in Gemini (representing alternatives).
I can’t stress this sufficient: benefit from the alternatives that life presents to you over the following 4 weeks! The Universe is attempting to roll the purple carpet out for you.
Take a while to meditate on—and visualize—what you want to life to seem like for you when you might write the script your manner.
NOW is the time to get as clear as doable in your imaginative and prescient on your life! With an exalted Retrograde Neptune within the remaining diploma of its dwelling signal of Pisces sextiling an exalted Retrograde Pluto within the first diploma of Aquarius (Uranus additionally joins in to make it a Minor Grand Trine), now’s the time to have massive ideas and visions about how we will make a massive impression on the world!
Listed here are some nice questions of self-inquiry to get you dreaming massive—and taking massive steps ahead—with the vitality of this very auspicious New Moon:
– If every little thing was going to work out nice for me, and I had nothing to fret about, the place would I would like life to guide me? What would life feel and look like for me? Describe intimately.
– If I certainly have an important function to play on this planet (you do!), and on this Ascension, what may that function be?

It’s a good time to partake in any enjoyable or spontaneous actions. With the Retrograde Mercury making us really feel nostalgic, it’s a fantastic time to get again to childhood in any manner that we will–just like the 6 of Cups within the tarot.
What actions did you actually take pleasure in whenever you have been younger? It may be one thing easy like strolling on the seaside and on the lookout for sea glass; enjoying in a lake; or making a watercolor portray. That is the perfect time of the yr to carry out the Internal Baby (extra on that later on this article).
Folks’s egos could be a bit uncontrolled right now with all of the Leo vitality and with Venus squaring Uranus–so it’s advisable to keep away from indignant folks and pay attention to your environment when strolling in seedy areas.
MERCURY RETROGRADE IN VIRGO
Mercury, the planet of communication, has gone Retrograde within the mutable earth signal of Virgo.
On the New Moon, it was stationed, imprinting very sturdy Mercury Retrograde energies into the template for the following 28 days. Naturally, it will carry with it its fair proportion of technological and communication points (particularly the latter, since Mercury is at dwelling in Virgo, the signal of communication).
Nonetheless, it additionally give us a beautiful alternative to re-visit and repair points which can be left over from the previous (in addition to to re-start tasks that we had placed on the again burner)–and it provides us an incredible alternative to test in and meet up with folks from our previous, in addition to to revisit and get reacquainted with actions and passions from our previous.
Virgo guidelines over cleansing and group—so August now’s the perfect month of the yr to scrub out and re-organize what must be cleaned and arranged (I positive have quite a bit!) Venus is now in Virgo, and the solar will probably be coming into Virgo later this month—so August has numerous Virgo vitality!
Whereas Mercury is Retrograde in Virgo, it would particularly trigger points with interpersonal communication, journey and electronics. On August 15, Mercury will re-enter Leo, shifting the main target of the Mercury Retrograde to evolving our personalities, and re-addressing relationships with others.
By the way in which, when you have been born below a Mercury Retrograde, it’s not going to have an effect on you as strongly–and in reality you may even really feel extra ‘at dwelling’ throughout this time.
Right here is a few normal recommendation for navigating a Mercury Retrograde interval:
- Guarantee that all of the ‘I’s are dotted’ and ‘all of the T’s are crossed’ when signing any contracts. Contemplate Murphy’s Regulation throughout Mercury Retrograde: what can go improper, will go improper. Contemplate holding off on signing contracts, or holding any actually necessary conferences, till September, if it’s one thing that isn’t time-sensitive.
- Be additional clear in your communication with others. Give others extra leeway than standard. Inquire to make clear what somebody means by one thing when you’re not sure, particularly if it’s through textual content message or e-mail.
- Keep away from buying big-ticket gadgets (e.g. a brand new automotive) till September, if doable
- Again up all your laptop information and your smartphone!
- Triple-check journey plans and appointment occasions. Confirm occasions with others.
- Launch expectations of others, particularly with regards to folks responding in a well timed vogue. Give folks the good thing about the doubt. Expectations of others might go unfulfilled.
- As at all times, use Mercury Retrograde as a time to refine your communication–somewhat than to be afraid of miscommunications, or electronics breaking down, or journey plans getting interrupted.
This Mercury Retrograde section formally started on August 4 when Mercury stationed Retrograde. It formally concludes on August 27. Probably the most potent results are felt within the seven days earlier than and after the Station Phases—so July 28-August 11, after which once more from August 20-September 3.
BRINGING OUT YOUR HIGHEST PERSONALITY AND YOUR AUTHENTIC VOICE
Leo guidelines over the ego, so let’s focus on it!
The ego is just not inherently unhealthy. The ego is far more advanced than that. The reality is, the ego (really a greater time period for that is the ego-personality) is the car that’s essential for the expertise of being nearly any kind of bodily incarnate being.
Your soul chooses a specific predetermined character in every lifetime that can permit the soul to expertise life from a specific individuated (distinctive) perspective. In whole, you seemingly have tons of (or hundreds) of distinctive individuated views that your soul experiences in human kind on earth—in numerous timelines, time intervals, and geographic places; and in various kinds of our bodies, with completely different ethnic backgrounds, households/upbringings, cultures, financial climates, and geographic climates, and so forth.–to kind a whole ‘wheel of expertise’ (to simplify, consider it as your soul experiencing the distinctive views of all 12 indicators of the Zodiac wheel, again and again, in order that it could possibly expertise the totality of the Zodiac wheel whereas right here on Earth).
I consider that the day and time that you’re born is predetermined by your soul, which means that your astrology can be predetermined. Your natal chart fairly properly determines your character.
So your soul desires to expertise life via your distinctive perspective. Your distinctive ego-personality is just not a barrier to Ascension; somewhat, it’s the car via which you are supposed to expertise the Ascension.
This New Moon chart actually exemplifies the significance of individuality as a consequence of Venus additionally being in Leo—and squaring freedom-seeking Uranus.
Altering up your look and wardrobe could be a extremely nice solution to align with the energies of this New Moon for a similar causes! With aesthetically-focused Venus in expressive Leo squaring expressive Uranus in useless Taurus on this New Moon, we’re feeling a name to give attention to our vogue, type and aesthetics. With Mercury Retrograde in Virgo, and Venus now in Virgo, it’s a nice time to scrub out our possessions, too—so that is the perfect time of the yr to re-do your look and your wardrobe!
As you undergo your Ascension course of, your character will inevitably shift and evolve. A number of the Shadow points of your character that present up in your delivery chart—these adverse, immature, and unhealthy tendencies and points of ego—will dissolve away and you’ll embody increasingly more of probably the most constructive, wholesome and Spiritually Mature points of your specific ego-personality.
In reality, as one Ascends, what is de facto occurring is that the points of the character that come immediately from the soul are beginning to shine via. Sure, it’s true–the soul has a novel character too!
And it’s seemingly that if the soul has a character, so does the oversoul and the monad. I consider it’s seemingly that each one individuated points of the All-That-Is have a novel character. Maybe it’s a logical given, contemplating all individuated points of the All-That-Is have a novel perspective as a consequence of having a novel expertise of existence.
So we shouldn’t be ashamed of our egos! We solely ought to attempt to transmute any of the adverse, unhealthy, immature points of ego.
Among the best methods to carry out that Highest Character is to purify. As empaths, we are inclined to sponge up ‘stuff’ from others, and if we don’t know how one can set boundaries with others and protect or cleanse ourselves spiritually, we received’t be capable to expertise our Highest Personalities coming to life. You may’t be absolutely YOU when you’re expressing all types of ‘crap’ from others!
To expertise extra purity, you will need to spend occasional time in sacred solitude, and loads of time in nature. Man is a social creature, sure, and that fact is illuminated throughout Leo season; nevertheless alongside the non secular journey the significance of alone time can’t be understated.
Additionally it is essential to apply non secular hygiene: take cleaning baths, use palo santo or sage, and use visualization and sound frequencies to maintain your self clear. Take away adverse cords with folks in your life. Additionally, train every day–it strikes caught vitality out of your vitality area.
Round this New Moon and over the course of the following 28 days is the time to focus on probably the most constructive and charismatic points of your ego-personality. I really feel like as a Leo Rising I have to be an envoy for this level. Don’t be afraid to let your self free, to let your self shine! You deserve it!
I really feel I’ve a fairly good humorousness. With out my humorousness, I feel my life could be fairly boring and miserable, and I wouldn’t be capable to meet so many cool folks. So I think about my humorousness a type of ‘soul’ points of my character.
Listed here are some questions of self-inquiry (and to journal on, when you’d like) that will help you determine which points of the ego-personality may be from the soul-self and which points you continue to may must transmute:
- Which points of my character am I most pleased with?
- Which points of my character serve others finest?
- Which points of my character really feel most related to Love?
- Which points of my character do I really feel come from my soul?
- Do I generally tend to cover these most constructive points of my character?
- Am I afraid to be seen? Why may I’ve this worry? May it come from childhood? Teenage years? Previous lives?
- May I permit myself to shine extra?
- Which points of my character are poisonous, manipulative, codependent, or martyrish?
- What do I do know deep down that I must do higher as a way to transmute these adverse patterns into more healthy ones?
- How would my soul act on this physique of mine? How would my soul converse?
Leo can be related to the Internal Baby. Let’s focus on.
Leo is probably the most childlike signal of the Zodiac, bringing with it an air of freedom, play and unabashedness. Because the ruler of the 5th Home, it guidelines over kids. The Internal Baby is a facet that all of us carry inside, although sadly most of us overlook it’s there as we journey from childhood, to our teen years, and into varied levels of maturity.
As adults, we will grow to be so disconnected with the way it feels to be a toddler. Generally I get nostalgic recalling how wonderful and adventurous every little thing was after I was a child. How my mates and I might spend from after faculty till sunset enjoying sports activities and video games in my yard, taking breaks to drink my mom’s scrumptious fruit punch. My yard was the most important within the neighborhood, so all the children would congregate there. Within the wintertime we might construct elaborate snow forts and go sledding usually, taking full benefit of the overabundance of snow in Western New York.
Most adults in immediately’s Western world have grow to be disconnected from their Internal Kids. Society is structured in a manner that most individuals don’t have time to attach with their Internal Baby, as they’re too busy simply attempting to earn sufficient cash to outlive. And plenty of of those that do make greater than sufficient to outlive find yourself discovering themselves misplaced in illusions/addictions like playing, alcohol, medication, pornography, or sexual obsession.
In reality, one of many causes that so many teenagers and adults discover themselves so enamored with these issues is that it provides them an outlet to play. (Word: I’m not saying there’s something inherently improper with playing; alcohol; substances which can be categorised as medication; pornography; or intercourse; it’s all about how they’re used—is it a wholesome expertise of play/pleasure or is it dependancy/obsession/escapism?)
However we will discover methods to play in additional harmless methods. We will dance. We will sing. We will make foolish faces. We will make jokes. We will construct sand castles in the summertime and throw snowballs at each other within the winter.
Doing an Internal Baby meditation could be an incredible thought round this New Moon. I wish to take myself in my thoughts to an attractive forest scene and actually sink into this setting. I then think about my Internal Baby approaching from a distance, and I ask him what’s it he wants from me that I haven’t been giving him?
I embrace him, I hug him, and I be sure that he seems like I’m there for him and I’m listening to him.
Should you’ve by no means finished an Internal Baby meditation earlier than, chances are you’ll discover that your Internal Baby exhibits up on the age that you simply really feel such as you skilled probably the most trauma and abuse. It’s because no matter primary bodily or emotional wants that weren’t met by your caretakers at that age are what you then spend the remainder of your lifetime therapeutic.
The issues that individuals say or do this set off you most immediately relate to these unmet wants of your Internal Baby. As an awakening being, you now have the chance to heal your Internal Baby and expertise the liberation of being a totally built-in sovereign grownup consciousness. To do that, we first should get to know the voice of the Internal Baby and determine what wants she or he has.
When the Internal Baby’s wants haven’t been met after which are constantly ignored throughout maturity, the Internal Baby should discover a solution to get your acutely aware consideration.
So, the Internal Baby will placed on a scary masks, so to talk, and grow to be the Shadow. The Shadow Self can set off you to behave out within the darkest of how, and even to draw folks to deal with you in nasty methods. The Shadow Self might sabotage your desires and make it troublesome so that you can transfer ahead.
The excellent news is that by listening to the voice of the Internal Baby, the Internal Baby feels seen, heard, and acknowledged–and thus doesn’t must morph into the Shadow to get your consideration. Once we consciously make the selection to honor these wants that the Internal Baby has tell us she or he has, we will make fast leaps ahead in our non secular growth.
Listed here are some inquiries to ask your self (and ideally journal on) that will help you get into deeper communion along with your Internal Baby:
– If I needed to guess, what would my Internal Baby say about my life as it’s now? Would (s)he be completely happy about it?
– If I needed to guess, what would my Internal Baby say about my present residing atmosphere? Would (s)he be completely happy about it?
– If I needed to guess, what would my Internal Baby say about my present job/profession? Would (s)he be completely happy about it?
– If I needed to guess, what sort of issues have I been neglecting to present my Internal Baby that (s)he wants?
– Which actions or artistic endeavors from my childhood have I uncared for recently?
– Have I been taking life too significantly?
– Do I let myself fall into the lure of the seriousness of these round me?
– In what methods am I nonetheless imply or nasty to myself? How can I cease being imply or nasty to myself?
– Am I OK with failing? How might I be taught to be OK and forgive myself after I fail or mess up?
– Do I forgive myself immediately, or do I have a tendency to carry issues towards myself?
– How might I apply immediate self-forgiveness?
– Do I are inclined to let others’ adverse feelings take me over? How might I keep away from this pitfall?
– Am I OK wanting foolish or silly to others? Does what others consider me really actually matter?
– Am I really honoring my deepest needs?
SPENDING EXTRAVAGANTLY & GREED
With Venus in Leo squaring Uranus in Taurus on this New Moon, we’re going to wish to spend cash liberally. Should you can afford it, purchase no matter is in your coronary heart’s want! However if you’re on a price range, be conscious of that price range, because the tendency now will probably be to overspend (and presumably set your self up for monetary bother later).
Additionally, many unscrupulous characters will probably be appearing out of greed throughout this time, as that is additionally a grasping vitality. Be discerning and keep away from getting scammed.
Wishing you a enjoyable, pleasurable and auspicious New Moon in Leo!
