The New Moon will be at 10 degrees Leo today,
August 2, 2016.
As with all New Moon phases, the Sun and
Moon are in conjunction and with this particular New Moon the Moon and Sun are
also in trine to Transiting Saturn.
A New Moon is a time for beginnings and in
the sign of Leo this will be a time when you can take a leading role with
moving towards a direction that not only enhances your creative potential (particularly
if this New Moon is found in the fifth house), but also provides an aggressive
instinctual push with reaching your objectives.
If you have had an idea or have been
putting together a plan that has the potential for growth on some level, (whether
this be on a personal level, through a business proposition or with the purpose
of reaching a goal of any kind) this combination (especially so with Saturn
providing stability and purpose) can be quite rewarding when the Full Moon in
Leo reaches its culmination point in about six months’ time.
Saturn, although in trine to this
conjunction of the Moon and Sun, does suggest that you take your time with
these objectives and also asks you to make sure the foundation for your plans
or goals is built on solid ground.
Saturn will make sure that you do the groundwork or will at least
propose that you take this route so that the opportunities that are in place
will have the framework for success and a prosperous outcomes. Once again, this can be on a personal level
of achievement or perhaps a business proposal.
It is wise to have a look at your natal
chart and see if you have other planets making aspects to this conjunction (as
well as the Transiting Saturn). This
will help you understand what areas of life are involved as well as whether you
will have challenges in reaching your goals or if the transition will run
smoothly. You will have the potential
for greater success in reaching your objectives if for example you have Jupiter
or Venus as part of the equation and particularly so if they are in fortunate
aspects to this configuration.
It is important to always look at the natal
potential in your chart when reviewing your potential for easy success or hard
work. This is not to say that a
challenging natal aspect has little chance of succeeding, only that you may have
to work extra hard to reach these goals and aspirations work.
If, for example, the MC is involved, this
could suggest opportunities with your profession, perhaps recognition for your
hard work and advancement of some kind.
If the DC is involved perhaps this will be a time for marriage or a
proposal of such, or the relationship becomes more involved and has implications
of longevity.
Once again much depends on the overall
condition of these areas in your birth chart.
If you are not overly acquainted or familiar with these ideas, the
preparation of a chart by a reputable Astrologer is recommended. Remember Astrology points the way, but you
are always in the driver’s seat in life and you are the one that plans the
route you will take. Let’s chart the
way.
