This New Moon in Leo (7/24/2025) my Guides have been sending me the song ‘Blue Moon’ (Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday or The Marcels, depending on your mood). I finally realize that Blue Moon turns into New Moon in my head and those Tricksy Guides just keep making it fun. The Moon turning Gold is perfect for a Leo New Moon and the Leo Mercury Retrograde (Trickster energy). The Gold Moon transmits a Golden Lion that surrounds me with a mantle of protection, guidance and empowerment. I am safe. I am loved. I shine. The Golden Sun melts any rigidity and warms my heart. We are tired of being told who to hate. I choose kindness (Leo) and unity (Pluto in Aquarius).
Besides Mercury Retrograde (Rx) in Leo there are 5 other planets and asteroids Rx making this a powerful time to reset, review, regenerate, regroup, recharge and redo. Neptune and Saturn are both Rx in a tight conjunction in Aries (a review before a New Start of Spiritual Manifestation)and they are in a Grand Fire Trine with the Sun/Moon conjunct (New Moon) in Leo and Black Moon Lilith Rx in Sagittarius. May we use this Fire to melt away all that holds us down and back as we alchemize the Lead of fear, control and division into the Gold of open Hearts and creative joy.
Mars (action/life spark) in Virgo helps us to sort through all of these powerful vibrations to glean what is useful, empowering and nourishing. Mars in Virgo urges us to use our personal will and initiative to cultivate a daily practice of processing the energies and events of the time and to metabolize them, especially through movement, for our health, centeredness and vitality.
An immensely powerful Minor Grand Trine of the outer planets making two sextiles and a trine between Neptune/Saturn Aries Rx, Pluto in Aquarius Rx and Uranus in Gemini supports us and charges us up for the changes coming. There are many signatures of electricity in this configuration of Fire and Air. Electricity needs to be grounded to be safe and useful. May Mars in Virgo aid us in our daily grounding practices.
Nancy Rebecca asks us, “What does it mean to be Human?”. My answer: to be in alignment with the energies of the Time, connected to Earth and Cosmos and shining out our unique Light (Leo) in harmony with others (Pluto in Aquarius). What is your answer today?
