Sometimes the words can’t describe the power of a moment the way your lived experience can. Now is one of those times.

All new moons are a new beginning. The issue is always the question is always some version of  “what kind of new beginning do we have this month?” The answer to that question is always a combination of factors. The first – and most important one – is the energy and the archetype of the sign. The second is the placement in the Wheel of the Year. And the third is the other astrological aspects. Tomorrow’s new moon is in Libra. But there is more. 

Astrologically speaking, the New Moon is a time of beginnings. A monthly reboot, it gives you a chance for a fresh start. The New Moon always provides opportunities to create something new, to start a new phase, or to start the next phase of an ongoing project. In order to make the most of these moments, always start with the sign you are in, and then look to where you are in the Wheel of the Year. That equation determines what sort of new beginnings you can realistically expect to create. As it’s Leo season, and Lammas (the beginning of harvest season), let’s start there.
