The arrival of the new moon is upon us again, which means we get to initiate yet another cycle of growth in our lives. This month, we find ourselves in the sign of the Leo. Rrrrroar!
The lionhearted Leo is affiliated with the Jungian archetype of the divine inner child; the part of us that is always young at heart. Leo involves itself with power, radiance and the need to shine. The sign is also famous for its confidence, vitality, charisma and courageousness. With that said, Leos enjoy being center stage and sometimes seek attention, meaning this sign also relates to the ego.
During this month, you may find yourself wanting to praise yourself unduly or show off. Basically there's a good chance you'll find yourself allowing your ego to get the better of you. Keep yourself in check and look at your true intentions. It's much more attractive to do things out of a selfless, heartfelt place.
In fact, this is a new moon for greater self-awareness and self-assurance. Know Thyself. The more you know about yourself, the more adept you'll become at skillfully dealing with a wider rage of experiences. A good place to start is looking at your emotional reactions to things (especially if you're a moody bird). Take a pause, breathe deep and respond rather than react.
This period is also ideal for redefining your personal power in relation to your community. Leos are natural-born leaders. When they are at their best they uplift those around them; they share their talents with the greater good in mind. Use this New Moon to look at how much time you spend to help others in need. And ask yourself: am I helping out for the sake of my ego or for the sake of helping?
Behold -- this is also the New Moon for romance. Leos love romance. If you are not getting enough attention from your partner, or you are lonely and looking for love like I am, this is the New Moon to create a powerful ritual to invoke and invite a love affair into your life. With clear intention and a strong desire, you can make Him or Her show up.
Lastly, this new moon is ideal for getting your creative juices flowing. This cycle is all about discovering your personal aesthetic, so start a new project or build a stronger belief in your own vision. The Lion embodies the belief that our lives are one big canvas. We get to fill it with whatever we want. So grab your oils or whatever medium you chose and dream big!
