Happy New Moon in Leo!
New Moons are potent times of transformation. They are times of manifestation and change, of calling in new beginnings and fresh starts. It is a cycle of courage, of trying something new, of becoming exactly who we want to be.
This new moon occurs at the beginning of Leo season. The fifth sign of the zodiac, Leos are all about play, adventure, fun, and passion. It is fitting that Leo is ruled by the Sun, as summer is the season of our inner child. This fiery sign knows how to find joy and take advantage of the long summer days.
This New Moon grants us the opportunity to check in with ourselves and the movie that is our life. Leos are all about main character energy - they know how to live life for the plot, and to do it for themselves. What can you welcome in to your life that will bring more joy and love into your life?
This season gives us courage (from the Lion) and the reminder to live your life unapologetically - which is the best thing you could possibly do for those around you, as well as yourself. Have the strength to live big - you are never ‘too much.’ There is no such thing. Live big, loud, and proud, and shine your heart as much as you can.
Anytime we step through portals of transformation, there may be periods of uncomfortable times or energy. Change is not always easy - in fact, staying stagnant and comfortable in what we know is the easiest thing. However, growth and expansion are important parts of life. Challenge yourself to step outside your comfort zone and add something into your life that your future self will be proud of.
The Moon helps us understand our inner selves. She is divine feminine energy. She is shadow and light, marking cycles of time and seasonal shifts. She is all knowing and always there. Allow yourself to feel the pulls of the tides of the Moon, as well as the strong beams of sunshine shining down on us from the Sun during the day. Feel the balance between masculine and feminine energy, between night and day.
Feel proud of yourself as you welcome in new beginnings and fresh starts - no matter if that is a fresh hair cut, quitting a job, saying ‘no,’ to a friend, or saying ‘yes,’ to something that scares you (but also excites you). Summer is the season of action. Show yourself you know how to take action. Be courageous like a Lion. Love yourself and play the main character role of your life. Channel your inner Leo. Watch the magic that unfolds as you do so.
ALIGNED ACTION
Make yourself a new playlist. Make it at least 20 minutes long, if not longer. Play the music that makes you feel like the most ‘you.’ Put on an outfit that you, as the main character in your life, would wear. Go out for a walk listening to your playlist. Walk with happiness and joy. Dance a little. Pretend like no one is watching and act like your most genuine, authentic, inner child self. Have fun with this. Stay out as long as you want. Make sure you come home and journal how it felt to feel like yourself - with only yourself supporting you in feeling free. What a beautiful feeling!
JOURNAL QUESTIONS
Do I act like the main character in my life?
Who are my supporting roles right now? How do they feel?
What is something I have been wanting to do, but am feeling scared to do?
We are in the middle of summer. Have I been playing and enjoying enough? How can I add even more to that?
As always, thank you for being here. I am so grateful to the moon cycle to give me pause for reflection.
I can’t wait to see what you do to continue building your dream life.
with all the love,
markie
