New Moon in Leo: Honoring Our Heart’s Desire

Cancer season ends as the New Moon in Leo arrives, ready to take center stage on July 28, 2022, at 1:55 pm EST. 

At 5 degrees in Leo, this moon will be felt intensely by those in fixed signs near this degree. Leo, symbolized by the lion and governing the energy of our heart’s desires, sovereignty, and the wild creativity of our inner child, brings confidence and a burst of energy even as we continue managing some challenging astrology this month. 

New Moons are all about releasing what no longer serves and setting new intentions for the next cycle. It’s a monthly reset button where we can review and course correct by setting new paths for ourselves. 

However, this new moon invites us to honor and express ourselves wholeheartedly, which may mean allowing ourselves to be seen and heard. 

The Lion’s Portal began on July 26th, reaches its peak on August 8 (8/8), and remains open until August 12. This event is marked by the rising of the brightest star in the sky, Sirius. Sirius will rise and be visible above the eastern horizon just before sunrise. This legendary star is known for blessing humanity with wealth, honor, devotion, and creative gifts. In ancient Egypt, the rising of Sirius was connected to the rising of the life-sustaining and mighty Nile River. 

The Lion’s gate is known for its ability to accelerate and support the manifestation of our goals and dreams. Patterns and stories that began in 2019 now come full circle, and the opportunity for healing is multiplied.

The best way to tap into this power is to set aside time during its opening to get clear what cycle is ending and what the new pattern/idea or purpose is to be activated at this time!

These ideas can help you achieve this:

  • Creating a vision board or writing affirmations such as: “I release the past and reclaim all of myself as I step into the most expansive life path for myself now!” 
  • Take time to do a dead sea salt cleansing bath, gather some flowers, light a candle, and write out your wildest dreams in your present state, such as, “ I am thriving in my sacred business, abundance is mine, and my family is flourishing.”

Challenging Conversations led with Heart

While Leo and the lovely trine with Jupiter (expansion) in Aries add blessed confidence and generosity, it’s essential to be aware that Mercury (messenger) is squaring Mars (warrior) and the North Node (destiny) and Uranus (rebel) and oppose Saturn (taskmaster) in Leo.  

We may see some continued interesting happenings on the world stage during these astrological occurrences. 

Squares usually create friction and tension, so be mindful and stay grounded. Conversations that have been put off may suddenly culminate, and truth must be shared and received. There’s a lot of challenge spiced with the added positivity to manage any daunting shifts that may arise collectively. 

The four signs most affected by this new moon

Those born under the sign of fiery, fixed Leo (July 23-August 22) and those with personal planets (sun, moon, Mercury, Venus, or Mars) in Leo will be feeling this new moon the most. 

Fixed signs will also be feeling extra flow and positivity: Taurus (fixed earth), Scorpio (fixed water), and Aquarius (fixed air.) Check the house ruled by Leo in your birth chart; this is the area where you can expect new beginnings to be asked to step into your deep truth and authority.

Make sure to read your sun, moon, and rising sign to get a clearer picture of what this new moon has in store for you!
