As adults, we get so caught up in being responsible that sometimes we never really get an opportunity to simply embrace the truest part of ourselves.
For those of us that haven’t really had the opportunity to enjoy being in the moment and the creative space that we embrace as children. This can show up in various ways, from taking time for ourselves to engage in creative endeavors or even taking some time to cry if necessary.

This is also a great time to enjoy the company of children. Leo is the sign that rules children. So, if you have children, this is a perfect time to enjoy the experience of being in their presence. If you don’t have children, you can always be the amazing aunt, uncle, cousin, etc. that brings delight to the little ones. Children have such simplicity and joy that allows them to enjoy the moment and simply be themselves. At this new Leo moon, we can learn much from watching children embrace their authentic selves.

New Moon Support from Jupiter
What’s great about this new moon in Leo is that it gets beautiful support from the current transiting Jupiter in Aries. What this means is that there’s a fiery boost of abundance for the new moon in Leo. Jupiter in Aries encourages us to step out and be brave, innovative head starters.
With this mix of Moon/Jupiter positive fiery energy, there’s nothing stopping us from reaching success as long as we can align our emotions (Moon) with positivity and abundance (Jupiter). The Leo moon energy gives us the confidence, courage, and bravery to know that we are capable of doing just about anything!
Mars/Uranus Offering a Push to Action
In addition to the energies of the new moon in Leo, there’s a Mars/Uranus/North Node conjunction in Taurus that will also help to bolster the new beginnings of the new moon. This is an excellent opportunity to hone in our ability to form firm foundations. Taurus energy is not necessarily fast.
However, the Mars/Uranus energy associated with Taurus as well as its position within the North Node gives us the boost to take full advantage of our own self-worth, and values, and build those firm foundations that we desire. Thanks to the energy of Uranus, we may find that we will get more movement going if we consider what is innovative at this time.
Some Pushback Courtesy of Saturn
With all the fiery energy highlighted at this Leo new moon, there is some pushback courtesy of a Mercury opposition to Saturn. This could manifest as opposed and/or limited communication. This can take the form of messages and information receiving pushback, criticism, and delays. Due to this opposition energy, it may be difficult to really resolve communication and even short-distance travel issues.
Although this opposition won’t last long, we may run into issues with sending messages, package, and mail delivery delays, or being stuck in a traffic jam. This energy can also show up as encountering opposition from others when we express or communicate.
In all, the new moon in Leo encourages us to get in touch with our heart space and live in the brilliance of the sun. Leo offers us the opportunity to express what we need to enjoy life to its fullest so whether we are nurturing the inner child, spending time with our own children, pursuing our creative pursuits, or enjoying a romantic evening with a loved one, allow the energy of the Leo new moon brings some brilliance into your life.
