🔥 Leo New Moon – July 24, 2025 - 2° Leo | 3:10 PM EST
The Fire You Came Here to Carry
This Leo New Moon isn’t just about setting intentions — it’s a wake-up call.
It’s bold. It’s fiery. It’s the crackle of your soul remembering its mission. And even if you’re not totally clear on what that mission looks like yet, you probably feel it, that inner heat that says, “More is possible for me.”
But here’s the thing: stepping into that next version of you? It might mean letting go of the habits, fears, or stories that have kept you hidden. Leo wants you lit up and visible. But Pluto, Saturn, and Neptune? They’re making sure you’re not just performing.. they want it to be real.
This New Moon is your invitation to plant a seed of courage. To stop waiting for the “right moment” and start showing up, even if your voice shakes, even if the plan isn’t perfect.
Key Themes
- Reclaiming your creative power and self-expression
- Building a future rooted in soul-aligned leadership
- Facing the fears that keep you playing small
- Trusting your vision even when it’s not fully clear yet
The Aspects (and What They’re Asking From You)
🌑 New Moon opposite Pluto (retrograde) in Aquarius This can feel like a power struggle, but not always with someone else. Sometimes it’s you vs. you.
You might catch yourself thinking:
“I want to go for this… but what if I mess it up?” “Who am I to take up space like that?”
Pluto brings up shadow work. The places where we’ve outsourced our power, feared being “too much,” or felt like we had to earn the right to be seen.
But the gift? You can reclaim that power. You can stop asking for permission and start owning your decisions, your desires, your leadership.
Ask yourself: Where am I still shrinking, and what would it look like to take up space without apology?
🔥 New Moon trine Saturn + Neptune in Aries (both retrograde + conjunct) This one’s powerful. It’s the long game.
You might be feeling a quiet but steady pull toward something you used to dream about, a vision that once felt out of reach, but now? It’s starting to feel more real. The pieces might still be fuzzy, but the desire is stronger.
Saturn says: commit. Neptune says: trust the dream. Aries says: begin now... even if it’s messy.
Reminder: You don’t need to know the whole plan. You just need to take the next right step.
🌀 Mercury retrograde in Leo is loosely conjunct the New Moon This adds a layer of self-reflection around how you’re showing up and what you’re saying (or not saying).
You might find yourself circling back to old ideas, creative projects, or parts of yourself that you once abandoned. There could be something there that’s ready for a comeback — but it may need a new voice or a fresh spin.
Also: if you’ve been saying you want to be seen, but secretly avoiding visibility or perfection-trapping yourself… this Moon is calling it out (with love).
Pro tip: Go through your old notes, journals, or voice memos this week. Something in the “past you” might be ready for resurrection.
🌑 Leo New Moon Manifestation Ritual: “Command Your Light”
This isn’t a soft moon. This is about conviction.
Write this prompt at the top of a page: If I fully trusted myself, I would… Write without editing. Let your fire speak.
Breathe into the Solar Plexus Practice 3 rounds of 4-4-4-4 box breath (inhale, hold, exhale, hold -> all for 4 seconds) On each inhale, visualize golden light expanding from your belly. On each exhale, release fear or self-doubt.
Declare out loud: “I am the fire. I lead with heart. I trust my path, even when it scares me.”
Light a candle (preferably gold, yellow, or white) and speak your intention to it. Let the flame reflect your inner commitment.
