Moon in Leo
Natives with this placement tend to crave attention. They feel good when they are in the midst of it all, allowing them to fully express themselves. But this may also result in them constantly craving validation from others. They are very concerned with their public image and will always want to be at their best in front of others. Leo Moons are also very generous, able to give others that ‘light’ and joy when they feel appreciated.
New Moon in Leo
This is a time in which we’re pushed to express ourselves more. Have you been tending to others’ needs that you’re neglecting how to have fun for you instead of them? Or have you been forgetting to have fun so that you could focus on your career? What is your idea of fun? This may be totally new, something you’ve always wondered about but never started on. This could also be regarding a hobby. It’s a new way you’re trying to get back in touch with your ‘fun’ self.
This may even be a new romance that is about to sprout, or being more proactive/flirtatious during this period. It’s Leo energy. All about having fun and finding that passion for life again.
Or for those with kids, even getting more in touch with your children. Have you been the ‘adult’ that they needed in their lives thus far? This period could be pushing you to have a little more fun with them instead of being that disciplinarian, while still maintaining your authority as a parent. It could be about doing new things and exploring life together.
Important Aspects
Sextile Uranus in Gemini, Trine Neptune/Saturn retrograde in Aries, Opposite Pluto in Aquarius.
The aspects to the new moon are mostly positive, with one opposition of retrograde Pluto in Aquarius that if balanced well, can prove to provide positive rewards. This balancing is crucial in order for everything to be positive so what do we need to balance?
Leo Energy: Self-expression, fun, center of attention
Aquarius Energy: Uplifts others, rebellious, eccentric, individualistic, community driven
We’re pushed to balance ourselves and others. Our own needs and others’ needs. To be acquainted with others or to stand alone. To bask in everyone’s attention or to give the spotlight to others.
With Pluto retrograde, it’s pushing us to recognise our own inner power, to define what we stand for. There could be some inner struggles of what we want to be doing and what society tells us we need to do. We’ll talk more in-depth about this in our later posts. But what we’re pushed even more to do during this new moon in Leo is to have a balance between what we stand for and how we can ensure everyone around us is happy, being happy together.
This could require some changes in communication with Uranus in Gemini, but also of lessons each of us need to learn within ourselves with the retrograde Saturn/Neptune in Aries. This could be related to ideals that we have been using as our own north-star, but may need some tweaking and to be free from the illusions.
Retrograde Pluto is also trine Uranus. Any changes within our personal belief will help apply towards that inner power that we need to recognise. Whether it’s how you interact with others or how you exchange information.
Additional Things To Note
Express Yourself More
Heal that inner child. What do you need in order to feel like you’re living life, having fun? What do you expect from the world so that you’re able to live your life truly? What can you then in return offer to the world that is uniquely you?
Reflect On Your Inner World
Remember that saturn/neptune conjunction in Aries? About your own identity? It’s now retrograde, pushing us to reflect on ourselves. It’s also making a trine to this new moon, speaking about those reflections allowing us to truly act upon our own passion and freedom.
Be Bold And Do It
The Sun is also in domicile here in Leo. Have any Leo friends? Look at how they are just being themselves, doing whatever they want to do when they want to and they make it work for themselves in whatever capacity. This period is pushing you to do the same for yourself even if it means rebelling in some way.
