Episode 133 | New Moon in Leo: An Old-Fashioned Lady and a Flapper!

Episode 133 | New Moon in Leo: An Old-Fashioned Lady and a Flapper!

This Leo New Moon week features a very busy Mercury – which is just the way Mercury likes it; a glorious (but potentially overwhelming) Sun in Leo trine to Jupiter in Aries; Jupiter turning retrograde, introducing a four month period of introspection around life’s persistent questions; and a rare and somewhat daunting conjunction of Mars, Uranus, and the Moon’s North Node. April answers a question from listener Kellie about how to apply the planetary highlights to your own chart, including how to make general weekly updates relevant to your specific situation. Plus: Conflagrations, checking in with your insurance company, and how great was Alexander, anyway?

[0:44] What’s on the celestial agenda this week.

[1:16] Mercury’s busy! It makes a square aspect with Mars (July 26), a square to Uranus (July 28), and an opposition to Saturn (July 30). What can you expect from these very different planetary aspects?

[7:54] Mooooooooon Report! April explores the old-vs-new new contradiction represented in the Sabian symbol for the Leo New Moon, “An old-fashioned lady and a flapper.” Will you display your conventional or unconventional side this week?

[10:45] We’re in a new two and a half year Lunar Phase Family cycle! Read more about this fascinating cycle here.

[12:30] Mark this week’s Void-of-Course periods on your calendar; these brief moments of rest and reflection can help reinforce new habits and patterns.

[17:55] Jupiter turns retrograde on July 28th on the Sabian symbol, “A crystal gazer.” This marks a time of introspection about life’s Big Questions, but as always with Jupiter, we must be careful not to overdo it. Be guided by your inner Jupiter, but don’t forget to listen to helpful opinions from trusted loved ones or mentors.

[19:55] July 31 and August 1 brings a notable conjunction of Mars, Uranus, and the Moon’s North Node, which last came together this closely, in this area of Taurus, in 324 BC, when Alexander the Great was rewriting the history of Europe and Asia. The world around us is changing, and look at 19 degrees on your birth chart to see if this conjunction is especially significant for you. (April overlooked this one at the beginning of the year, but her friend Linea Van Horn caught it! Linea is awesome; here’s a link to become acquainted!) Here’s the article at Well Being Magazine’s website that April mentioned.

[24:18] A question from listener Kellie about how to interpret the weekly energies from the skies and how they relate to us. April shares three methods for making general astrology forecasts more relevant to your own birth chart!
