On Sunday, the 4th of August 2024 at 13:12 the new moon in Leo will be at its peak.
New moons are new beginnings and the start of a new cycle. Providing a moment to forgive
yourself for the past and the times you undervalued yourself or treated yourself any less than
you deserved.
The moon will be within 12 degrees of Leo. Leo, the lion of the Zodiac, is all about passion,
compassion, vibrancy, self-expression, and self-confidence. A fixed Fire sign, Leo’s energy is
fiery and powerful, creative and self-assured. During this time, it is the most optimal time to
embody the most empowered and loving self.
The moon is in the 2nd decant of Leo and is associated with the 6 of Wands tarot card, which is
also known as the ‘Lord of Triumph’. This card shows that you got somewhere, and you are
proud and celebrating of your achievements.
Venus is in 29 degrees of Leo during this time. Even though it is not close to Leo, with Venue in
Leo, it does show that there are extra flamboyant and larger-than-life theatric qualities during this
time.
Mars and Uranus squared, show that efforts are being demonstrated with courage, true
respectable effort, and morals.
Mercury is in Virgo, which is its home sign, therefore communications will go smoothly, directly,
simply, and eloquently.
This is a new moon that is passionate, artistic, fiery, and larger-than-life.
