In this lunar cycle, our New Moon is on July 24 at 3:11 pm EDT. 

In astrology, the New Moon is a time of new beginnings and wiping the slate clean. It's when you set your intention for the lunar cycle ahead and call into your life what you want - that could be a physical, tangible thing or something like more love, a joyful daily routine, or a deeper connection to your intuition.

This Leo New Moon is perfect for stepping into the spotlight and using your voice as a change maker.

Leo is all about stepping into the spotlight and owning your own power. Claiming what is yours with courage, bravery, and conviction. And some playful humor.

This is a gorgeous New Moon, trine Saturn and Neptune, and opposite Pluto. The trines to Saturn and Neptune help us focus on our dreams with a strong, sturdy foundation under our wishing webs, the ones we craft our hopes upon. Saturn also speaks to a long-term goal here that we’re aiming for, not a flash in the pan or a quick overnight success, but something sustainable. Something we can maintain long-term, that won’t burn us out. The opposition to Pluto is all about helping us transform, how to take what we have and use it in a new way. This also speaks to the Leo theme of creativity. How can we use what we have, perhaps repurpose something, to give it new life? How can we look at something different here? Approach it in a new way, given what we’ve learned (Saturn)? Take a look at what dreams are shifting and changing for you.

Whatever it is, don’t feel like you need to act on it right now. With Mercury Retrograde, the sands are still shifting and finding their final resting spot before the ground is ready for us to build on.

Some questions to ask yourself on this New Moon:

• Where are you resisting stepping into the spotlight?
  
  
• How can you claim your voice?
  
  
• How do creativity and joy nurture you?
  
  
  

What siren song is calling to your heart now? You're weaving your foundation, sprinkling magic throughout your home, and creating a nurturing nest for yourself and those you love. Take a break from the action and carve out some downtime.

Happy birthday season, Leo! This New Moon is like your personal New Moon, a time when you are getting clear on who you are and what you want out of life. Follow your heart and intuition, they never lead you astray.

Libra, you're really feeling the community vibes lately, wanting to spend time with those that are on the same wavelength as you. Working with groups and cultivating a team who has your back is on the agenda this New Moon.
