Sunday, AUGUST 1

Mercury aligns with the Sun in the sign of Leo today, offering us a nice window of opportunity for seeing our goals more clearly in the areas of self-expression, play, courage, pleasure, creativity, and romance. This superior conjunction of Mercury and the Sun can stimulate an epiphany, illumination of a matter, or a clearing of the air. We are sharp, communicative, and open at this time, and what we say or write now has a strong impact, for better or worse! An idea or plan can come to full bloom. We may want to watch for intellectualizing issues that require sensitivity, however.

Both the Sun and Mercury oppose Saturn, and under these influences, we may communicate harshly, sparingly, or reluctantly. It can be difficult to trust our instincts, and we second-guess things automatically under this influence. The desire to enjoy ourselves can clash with our material goals. Doubts might slow down our movements and initiatives. Even so, this can be a helpful process as we take a break from pushing ahead. We might now see the need to adjust our plans based on new responsibilities or a reality check. Our efforts to measure up to expectations can ultimately increase our confidence in our ability to be responsible for ourselves.

Ideally, as we face obstacles, we begin to see the tools we have to overcome them. Revelations now can lead to a stronger sense of mission or purpose in the coming days. Focusing too much on our feelings may not be very productive right now. This is a time for reevaluating goals, taking into better account the limits of time and energy. It can be a good time for developing real solutions to long-term problems and for recognizing the meaning behind recent restrictions or limitations. We might acknowledge the need to adopt a humbler, more mature, and possibly more conservative approach. We might also need to catch up on neglected duties or responsibilities.

Monday, AUGUST 2

The Moon continues its transit of Taurus until it moves into Gemini at 4:46 AM EDT. Mercury forms a trine to Chiron today, opening our minds to learning from one another. This influence helps us communicate our feelings constructively. We’re relaying our messages in relatable, accessible ways. Good energy is with us for discussing or giving more thought to sensitive topics. We’re especially alert, observant, and willing to understand. We might discover new ways to approach problems. It’s easier than usual to communicate our message now, although this is less about getting the exact wording right and more about conveying our intentions. This can be a time of building faith or confidence in our skills and talents. We can experience a stronger desire to seek meaning, wisdom, and mental stimulation, and we more readily tune into meaningful patterns in our lives.

Opening us up further is a Venus-Uranus trine that is exact shortly into the day tomorrow. However, this energy is more about detaching than connecting with our feelings. Venus-Uranus brings us out of our shells, encouraging our bolder, more innovative natures, socially speaking. We are especially interested in all that is new, fresh, invigorating, unusual, and out-of-the-ordinary regarding romantic involvements, entertainment or pleasures, and financial undertakings. We may be experimenting, improvising, and trying new ways of relating and expressing ourselves. We might discover alternative ways to make (or spend) money. Although a little detached, we’re freer with our feelings, and we find beauty in the unfamiliar or uncommon.

The void Moon occurs from 3:40 AM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a square to Jupiter), until the Moon enters Gemini at 4:46 AM EDT.

The Moon is New in Leo on August 8, 2021, at 9:50 AM EDT.

New Moon in Leo on August 8, 2021: Chart

This phase of the Moon occurs at 16 degrees and 14 minutes of Leo.

The New Moon in Leo is an excellent time for formulating goals regarding “all things Leo.” We might concentrate on new ways to enhance our romantic life, creative endeavors and hobbies, and relationship with children, as well as to build our self-confidence and healthy pride in ourselves.

Some of Leo’s “lessons” involve taking pride in ourselves as unique individuals, assuming responsibility for our lives, and giving ourselves warmly and generously to others. This New Moon period is an excellent time to meditate upon some of the characteristics of Leo. Keywords for this self-expressive Fire sign — such things as proud, noble, generous, hospitable, caring, warm, authoritative, active, and open — are traits that we might enhance, develop, and incorporate into our personalities.

We all have Leo somewhere in our charts. Seek the coming month to improve those areas of life. It’s time to awaken our “inner child” and find ways to express ourselves creatively. With this potent Leo energy, we can make significant changes in our lives that will benefit us well beyond this Moon cycle. It’s time to make some plans and set the stage for reaping the rewards from our new beginnings, as little or big as they may be, approximately two weeks after the Full Moon occurs.

With the Sun and Moon square Uranus, we should watch for prematurity and abrupt changes or rebellion. However, it can be a courageous, proactive time. We can feel sudden urges to act, start new, and clean the slate. Or, unexpected events prompt a new approach. The desire to change and improve creative and romantic matters is strong.
