A Fiery Invitation to Be Bold, Brave & Brilliant
July 24 welcomes the New Moon in Leo — and let me tell you, this is not just any moon. This is a cosmic reset wrapped in radiant solar energy, here to help you unleash your inner fire and step confidently into your spotlight.
Whether you’re new to working with lunar cycles or a seasoned moon lover, this is your moment to set intentions that light you up from the inside out. So grab your journal, light a candle, and let’s explore what this powerful Leo New Moon is all about—and how to work with it.
🌑 New Moon Energy: A Fresh Start, a Blank Canvas 🌑
Every New Moon marks the beginning of a lunar cycle. It's a time of quiet soft energy, inward reflection, and potent potential. It’s when we plant seeds—energetically, emotionally, and spiritually—that we want to grow throughout the next 29-day-ish moon cycle.
Think of it like a cosmic “reset” button. The sky is dark, the energy is subtle but strong. It’s the perfect time to go within, set intentions, and focus your energy toward what you truly desire.
But when the New Moon shows up in Leo, the vibe shifts from soft to sizzling.
I suggest using the Dark Moon (July 23, the hours just before the New Moon) to rid yourself of any toxicity in your life. Set your intention to release all of this before setting your New Moon intentions.
♌️ The Leo Vibe: Bold, Creative, and Full of Heart ♌️
Leo is ruled by the Sun, the radiant center of our solar system—and this energy is all about self-expression, creativity, confidence, leadership, and joy.
Leo invites us to live from the heart, to shine unapologetically, and to embrace the unique magic that only we can bring to the world.
This New Moon asks:
Where are you playing small?
Where have you dimmed your light?
And most importantly… What would it look like to show up fully as your most radiant and powerful self?
This isn’t about ego or performance (which can be a shadow aspect of the sign of Leo)—it’s about authentic self-love, creative courage, and being the star of your own life story.
What This New Moon is Inviting
This New Moon in Leo is an invitation to:
Reignite your creative passions

It’s the perfect time to launch a new project, speak your truth, update your goals, or finally start that thing you’ve been dreaming about.
