New Moon at 2 degrees 8’ Leo at 20h11 UT+1, 24th July 2025

There’s a purity about the Leo New Moon, an authenticity which is born from the heart of the Sun. This fiery New Moon believes in itself.

As a zodiac sign Leo is honest, courageous, steadfast and generous, sometimes naively so. It seeks to burn brightly and show its truth and its heart. 

But it needs recognition, affirmation and appreciation. 

🔥 Leo Fire is paradoxical – both immensely powerful and absurdly fragile. 

🔥 It is extinguished if it isn’t fed. 

🔥 It is extinguished if there is too much water, too much dampness.

🔥 It rails against the practicality and mundanity of Earth. 

🔥 It is fanned brighter by Air but risks consuming itself too soon.

This Leo New Moon needs to be carefully tended. This is the authentic flame of our expressive, creative self.

🌱This Moon is a seed. It’s ready to give birth to the new version of ourselves.

This is a new beginning, considered in the reflective cauldron of Mercury retrograde and quietly encouraged through the retrograde Saturn/Neptune conjunction.

Now the Luminaries meet Pluto and encounter power struggles and the harsh reality of the wider world. This forces and shapes their transformation. Our transformation.

They are strengthened by being together. They are on the same page, and are ready for renewal.

Leo/Aquarius is known as the axis of Identity. Pluto is confronting us with questions: Who are we really? Where do we stand and what do we stand for in this changing world?

🌙 This New Moon demands that we respond with honesty.

This is a profoundly optimistic and creative New Moon. It offers itself hopefully as the starting point of something real and authentic.

We need to honestly decide what we need to sacrifice to make this creative leap forward. And then we must do it.

If you have personal planets or angles around 2 degrees of the Fixed signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius) this challenge may speak to you more profoundly.

Check where it falls in your chart. In which area of life is this new beginning?

Set intentions in early evening of the 24th July, when the Moon is dark, preparing for its rebirth.

Make your wish when you see the crescent in the sky.
