Thursday, JULY 24

The New Moon occurs today at 3:11 PM in the sign of Leo. This marks the beginning of a new lunar cycle, bringing the chance for a fresh start. The energy of this New Moon in Leo can enhance our romantic life, creative endeavors, hobbies, and relationships with children. It’s a time to build self-confidence and healthy pride in ourselves, and to assume more responsibility for our lives. We might aim to improve the Leo-ruled areas of our charts in the coming weeks. It’s time to awaken our “inner child” and find ways to express ourselves creatively.

This lunation forms a very tight opposition to Pluto (a partile aspect) and harmonizes with Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. It’s complicated! We can feel pushed out of our comfort zones, which leads to important changes and transformations. Fortunately, we have the insight and fortitude to push through and start anew.

The Sun forms trines to Saturn and Neptune and approaches an opposition to Pluto. It’s a time when we’re seeking solutions to problems. We’re sorting out what’s true and real from what’s superficial. It’s a good time to work on building our trust and faith. We might dedicate ourselves to a particular ideal, vision, or goal.

With the Sun trine Saturn early today, we have a stronger sense of responsibility, loyalty, and tradition. We’re also more persevering, ready to put in the work and draw on patience to achieve a longer-term goal. We’re wiser, more moderate, and balanced with this transit in play.

It can feel good to put our faith in someone or something as the day advances and the Sun-Neptune trine is in effect. We see the spiritual dimensions or imaginative elements of our pursuits. However, later today, we approach a Sun-Pluto opposition that can bring to the surface deep, dark, or buried and unresolved matters. Through feelings, relationships, and events, we can gain a clearer understanding of areas of life where we’ve been holding onto something too tightly or giving away our personal power. This can be disruptive and uncomfortable, but it can also lead to significant personal growth and heightened self-awareness.

A tricky or buried issue might now reach a head. We may feel on edge, volatile, or defensive. There can be inner drama or external circumstances that undermine our perception of our power. We may experience a battle within ourselves between light and dark energies, or we can meet this theme through others. Outside forces remind us of our need to take charge of our lives, but shortcuts to gaining control are unlikely to yield lasting results. Instead, we should formulate strategies for managing our fears or worries.

The Moon is void until it enters Leo today at 11:29 AM EDT.
