2024 LEO NEW MOON

On August 4, 2024, we will be experiencing the energies of a New Moon in the sign of Leo at 12°.  This is a time to plant seeds in your garden of life related to the energies of Leo.

2024 Leo New Moon

The Moon being placed in Leo brings out warmth and generosity and will enhance one’s image.  There is always a degree of resilience and know-how when it comes the energies of Leo.  You may feel as though you want to be in control of situations, especially a new one as this is what might be on the horizon at this time.  As mentioned, the New Moon cycle is often the beginning stages, when we can puts into action things that we have been planning or laying the foundation for what is yet to come.  This is the time to start action/planning and move ahead with exuberance and enthusiasm.

The 2024 Leo New Moon will also be making a sextile to Jupiter which will be at 14° in the sign of Gemini.  The Moon and Jupiter are forming a positive aspect (sextile) which can bring forth opportunities and a general feeling that things will be alright.

Check to see which house this Lunar position is activating in your natal chart and if it touches another planet in the birth chart.  The house position will give you indications of what areas of life might be involved.  Transiting Jupiter’s position by house and sign will give you more info due to its sextile to the moon. 

If this New Moon affects your chart, you may push forward with great optimism and bravery, daring to move forward with your objectives.  You may feel bold in your actions and would love it if others would also notice and be proud of you for what you are planning on doing.  The more people behind you, the better.  You will also feel quite generous at this time, and those that want to join in may find that down the road if all works out well, they too will be happy about the outcome. Usually, the culmination point of a new moon is when the Full Moon is in the same sign, some six months from now (February 12, 2025). 

Watch for being overly optimistic about reaching your goals but pursue them anyway.  With Jupiter being part of the process moving forward, you can expect bigger and, in many cases, more rewarding outcomes as you move ahead.  If you like what you see along the way, watch for too much self-acknowledgement as the ego in this alignment can be quite significant. You don’t want others to get the wrong impression.  You may feel the need to blow your own horn prior to the actual achievement, and the results may appear to be more successful to you than what they actually are.  Exaggeration is often part of the picture, but optimism and continued efforts are what makes things happen.

This New Moon’s position at 12° Leo should be within 3° in conjunction with or in opposition to a planet in your natal chart for it to have a more pronounced effect in your life.  The natal potential must always be present.

Whatever goals you are setting around the 2024 Leo New Moon beware of being over optimistic but pursue your goals anyway (with ego in check) because opportunity is at hand.

SATURN SEXTILE NATAL MOON

Saturn Sextile Natal Moon

Saturn sextile natal moon can be quite challenging.  However, because the energies of the Sextile aspect have to do with opportunities through engagement, there is a constructive energy that applies to this aspect.

Saturn is the teacher, the disciplinarian. Through hard work and a steady approach, Saturn’s energies can initiate achievement.  With the right amount of effort, especially when we are talking about the Sextile, Saturn can initiate the potential for long lasting gain especially through the feeling nature due to its influence in this case with the Moon.

Sometimes this will relate to the mother or important female individuals. 

Eventually after the sextile, Saturn will make a Square aspect to the Natal Moon, so what we do with the Sextile aspect will undoubtedly assist over time when the Square aspect comes into play.  The emotions will most likely be involved throughout this whole interchange, and Saturn makes emotional responses difficult even under the best of conditions.

Perhaps this relates to the home where the mother currently resides.  There is often a steadying and reliable situation when we speak of the home environment.  Perhaps the mother, who might be beginning to show signs of aging, will need to be placed in a home soon.  This can be a touchy situation because perhaps she feels like she does not need assisted living, but part of you knows that this is fast approaching.  The emotions come to the surface for both of you, but you know that something needs to happen soon, so you try to explain the situation to her.

This might be a good time to start to organize the placement, as it will likely take some time before things fall into place (Saturn’s influence).  You might want to take this opportunity (Sextile aspect) to get things moving in the right direction.  If there are challenging conditions coming into focus, (perhaps this aspect also forms a difficult aspect to Mercury) then perhaps her mind or your decision making is strongly affected by the emotional situation at hand.  You may have to make challenging decisions, and this can be even more challenging if Uranus or Pluto also connected by aspect.

For example, Uranus involved in the situation could bring things to a head when you least expect it, and Pluto could suggest that this will be life changing for your mother and likely for you as well. 

Much can be ascertained by the story written within the natal chart as well as other transits or progressions in place during the affected time of this aspect. 

Sextiles suggests that opportunities are in place, but that does not mean that it will be an easy journey.  The house position and Saturn’s natal position by house and aspect will further define what takes place as time progresses and the energies begins to come to the surface.

PLUTO SEXTILE NATAL MOON

Pluto Sextile Moon

Transiting Pluto will be in the sign of Aquarius for many years yet to come.  Those with their Moon in sextile to Transiting Pluto (Moon in Aries or late Pisces, Moon in Sagittarius or late Scorpio), will be feeling the effects of this positioning for about 2-3 years because of Pluto’s slow movement (about 1° per year).

Pluto’s energies represent change and transformation due to the changes it brings to life.  It speaks of the end of conditions and the beginning of something new.  The end can relate to death of a person or the end of a situation and is often viewed as challenging until it passes which as mentioned can take some time.  Some individuals begin to feel the energies of Pluto as far away as 3-5° prior to being exact which could be up to and including 3-5 years prior to exactitude. 

Pluto brings with it evolution and is in place to eliminate things that are no longer suitable for your personal journey in life.  Some things need completion, and this is what Pluto does; it ends things.  There can be disputes and ego collapse. These can be quite intense as time passes and the intensity continues until we begin to adjust to whatever new has taken hold in our lives.  It is best in most cases to go with the flow of change.

The Moon has to do with our family, our need for nurturing and the need to nurture. It is closely linked with our emotional state.  The natal aspects to the Moon play a huge part in our emotional behavior and our reaction from an emotional standpoint.  The house placement of the Moon speaks of the area of life that is under emotional focus while the sign of the Moon is the direct link to our emotional interaction and behavior.  All this will play an important part in the evaluation of Transiting Pluto sextile Natal Moon.

The house Pluto is in during its transit and the natal position of Pluto along with its aspects will help define how Pluto will interact with our Natal Moon.  One thing is for certain, there will be transformations and regeneration from an emotional perspective with Pluto sextile Natal Moon.

The Sextile aspect is one of opportunity.  When Pluto and the Moon form this interaction, our emotional reaction to life is subject to deep introspection and then the likelihood of change is most apparent.  There may be changes within the family unit, with the mother, and is some cases, women in general.  The home environment may go through alterations.  Perhaps we will move or make significant changes to the home we live in.  If we are still living at home with our parents, this can be the time when we move out of our family home and gain independence and a whole new perspective on life.

As mentioned, this is an opportunity aspect and under most conditions a very favourable one. However, if we sit back and do nothing to make things happen, this opportunity may pass us by with little to no effect.  We must push to make things happen although sometimes things just seem to fall into our lap.

Our emotional nature defined by the house and sign position is subject to upheaval and transformation at this time. We can be the ones orchestrating something meaningful into our lives if we choose to do so.  This is a very favourable energy and can translate into action when it comes to our mother as mentioned and women in general. Perhaps, we are the ones who help initiate the change that is required.  Perhaps we can help when help is what is needed.  This may be an emotional experience, but over time, it should work out favourably for those involved. 

Let’s use the example of the natal Moon is in the seventh house and in the sign of Aries. With this scenario, in most cases, we are the ones who arrange what unfolds within the core of our relationship with our spouse.  We like to have control and we do what needs to be done because this is what we want. We believe that we know best.  This can also be reflected in important relationships, and if, for example, the transit of Pluto were in the fifth house then this might relate to our children or a love affair. Perhaps our creative potential is now part of an ongoing process involving a business relationship.

There are many scenarios, and much will be defined by the houses involved as mentioned. Be sure to look at the natal potential when deciding what this might mean for you or for the person that you may be working with.  This is an opportunity aspect so make sure that something is done with these transformative energies and work with what is in place.
