On Sunday July 23rd at 5:45am, the Dark Leo Moon arrives in my time zone. However, your mileage may vary – be sure to check for your local time HERE. Once again, I turned to the interwebz to see what this means for us astrologically. From Forever Conscious, a snippet of the article Intuitive Astrology: July New Moon 2017 by Tanaaz
The vibration of 2017 is ‘beginnings’, so we are all starting a new chapter this year in some way, and July’s New Moon is going to really be guiding us to keep moving forward and journeying into this new territory.
This New Moon also carries a fiery energy, which is going to be giving us the motivation and optimism we need to create the life we have always dreamed of.
Leo is the sign of optimism and leadership, so use this energy to guide yourself forward to be the best you can be no matter what life throws your way.
After all, we all know that Leo the lion is the King of the jungle, so under this powerful energy, perhaps ask yourself how you can become the King or Queen of your own life in order to inspire yourself and others.
Be mindful around this New Moon of taking on too much or spreading yourself too thin, remember, this New Moon is all about balancing pleasure and play with responsibility.
Only take things on if they are truly what you want to do and truly aligned with your current vibration. Learn to say No to things that don’t inspire you and don’t fill you up, and be mindful of how you are choosing to spend your time.
The July New Moon is very positive and energizing, but if you feel like you have been dealt a particularly challenging bag of tricks, try to take a calm and relaxed approach and remember to view things from a place of curiosity. Whatever comes up is likely to have another side to it that will be revealed in August.
I’ve put together a couple of simple rituals to do at this time. Both of these graphics are from earlier blog posts, HERE and HERE (click the picture for the full size version).
Finally, here’s the graphic I created for the occasion. Be sure to shout out in the comments with your own favorite way to celebrate this phase of the moon. Bright Dark/New Moon blessings!

Traci, would you ever be interested in doing a cast post on my blog about Tarot reading? Kind of a general introduction for people who are curious about it but not have not ever had a reading
Awesome idea, Phil! It might be a few weeks before I could give it my full attention, but I’m definitely interested. Thanks for asking!
