NEW MOON SOLAR ECLIPSE in LEO
There is a huge wave of recharging energy from this powerful new moon solar eclipse, as it takes place on the last day of the Lionsgate portal.
We also have the Perseid meteor shower peaking tonight & tomorrow.
It's as though the universe is celebrating the end of an old chapter- in preparation for a more positive, unified energy.
A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon moves between the Sun and Earth, temporarily blocking some (or all) of the sun.
In the UK we will see approximately 96% of the Sun covered by the Moon.
The combination of energies will bring about a powerful reset energy - and helps you to release old thought & behavioural patterns.
Practicing mindfulness/meditation/yoga etc would be beneficial at this time, but you will also feel the need for FUN and a change of routine:)
Because we are rapidly moving away from the old, heavier energy, this new moon will bring about many changes, emotionally, physically, financially and globally.
It would be advisable not to over think situations too much at the moment, try to be guided by your inner voice and "expect the unexpected".
The Leo influence on the new moon, will give you a surge of renewed inner strength, courage and motivation.
You could really be craving change - and could start to see things - and people very differently.
If you get a chance to go outside and spend time in nature it will be very beneficial to realign your chakras.
Usually the new moon is a great time to start new projects, but because it turns void of course when it turns new, the energy frequencies from this moon would be more beneficial for you to "let go and just let yourself go with the flow".
If you do want to do any manifestation rituals, try to do them before 6:36pm U.K. time.
Because we also have the meteor shower, It would be helpful for you to ask the universe to help you manifest opportunities to enable you to flow with ease down your soul path with your soul group over the few days after this moon.
A solar eclipse gives you a chance to go within and connect to your inner truth.
Authenticity is the key word for this moon. It's very important to be as true to your inner self as possible.
You could also be drawn to do some inner child healing, and may find many childhood memories flashing into your mind.
If they are positive memories, it can help to embody their energy into your cell memory.
If you have negative, or traumatic memories you can use the energy of the full moon at the end of the month to release that trapped trauma energy from your cells.
As well as feeling motivated, the Leo influence can make you fiery, so it's always good to be mindful not to be too critical or hurtful when expressing your inner truth to others .
Affirmation for the next two weeks βI let myself flow and use the light of the sun & moon to enhance my glow"
