The Leo New Moon will fall just within the pre-shadow phase for Mercury Retrograde, on August 4, at 9.13 pm, when the luminaries will be at 12 degrees 34 minutes of Leo, so in its 13th degree. The Sabian symbol is “An old sea-captain rocking himself on the porch of his cottage”, which speaks of the quieted mind’s recollections of crises and joys long past during a time of quiet recollection.

The luminaries will be making a productive sextile to Jupiter and Mars in Gemini, and a wider “easy opposition’ of a sextile and trine to the Nodal Axis. This has a feeling of moving forward more quickly  as the fiery nature of Mars will work well with the Leo energy which is disposited by the Sun itself!

Venus in the last degrees of Leo is making her stunning presence felt during this Leo New Moon! A wonderful time for creative efforts as Venus is a Goddess of Creation and Creativity and Leo positively shines with artistic and childlike  abilities!

A strong Yod stands out in the chart focused on Venus in the last anaretic degree of Leo, with tight but awkward quincunx aspects to Neptune in Pisces and Pluto in Aquarius, both also close to the cusp between signs!

The Fixed Grand Cross with Venus, Uranus, Pallas Athena and Anubis is still within a close orb and Anubis is supported by the asteroid Horus the Egyptian Neter Sun God at 28 Aquarius 41’, so closely opposing Venus.

The productive sextile from Sol and Luna to the Libra South Node, ruled by Venus, suggests assistance in integrating the more balanced Libran energy relating to Pallas Athena in the Grand Cross, to enable a more peaceful achievement of the Aries North Node helped by all of the Solar influences.

2024 is an “8” year in Numerology so this year August 8, 17 and 26 will be super positive triple 8 days which some believe to be especially fortunate “Lions Gates”!

With the Sun and Moon in the sign of Leo, the more general energetic focus is on:

  • Finding ways to “look good” and shine
  • Increasing self-esteem through gaining credibility
  • Being optimistic and tackling problems head on with confidence
  • Encouraging others to be the best they can be, being helpful
  • Entertaining friends, being a good host
  • Developing and expressing creativity and intuition
  • Playing with children or those we love and having a good time
