New Moon in Leo – July 24, 2025
New Moon, new vibe! Welcome to the Leo New Moon. Get ready for pleasant surprises and new opportunities. This New Moon is setting us up energetically for September’s Eclipse Season, when even more profound shifts await us.
Leo is governed by the sun, so all those good, divine masculine vibes await us at this New Moon: authentic identity, courage, and self-worth. There’s also a lot of heart to Leo, who is the intuitive leader and bearer of creative solutions. With both the sun and moon in this sign, we’re being called to focus on who we truly are on a soul level. Any statement that begins with “I am…” is the perfect representation of this.
Now’s the time to reclaim your authenticity. Here in the middle of the year, we have the chance to assess where we’ve been and where we want to go. Beyond the “doing,” be sure to focus on the “being” of who you are – who do you want to be in the second half of this year?
Leo and Aquarius are sister signs, creating a cosmic duality that helps us look at both the outward and inward expressions of ourselves. This is important because Pluto, the sign of transformation, renewal, and the Underworld, is in Aquarius, offering a fantastic balance between the sun and moon in Leo at one end and its own placement at the far reaches of our solar system. So, the intentions set on healing, wisdom, growth, and your own personal reclamation will have the most power this month.
We’re also in the thick of Retrograde Season, so be sure to keep that lion tamed a bit when you’re faced with big, important decisions. Yes, you want to roar your power and take pride in what you do, but a short pause is always a good idea during this season. By the way, Mercury is also retrograde in Leo, so watch for hot tempers – in yourself and others!
Here’s Your Horoscope for the New Moon in Leo
Aries: It’s time to remember who you are, not who others want you to be or what they’ve said you “should” do. Say yes to joy and say yes to your own brilliance this month!
Taurus: You are a mutha-effin’ queen, and it’s time to step into that energy. Be sure to integrate grounding energy into your daily rituals, but lean into your personal power, too.
Gemini: You’re good at speaking your mind, but it’s time to speak from your heart too. Leo is passionate, and that passion is coming for you in the absolute best way. Allow it to move through you in your creative pursuits and when communicating with others.
Cancer: What do you value most when it comes to your energy and spirituality? Leo is asking you to dive into your personal values and to remember your infinite worth as a human. That means it’s time to set some intentions around your boundaries and how you spend your time and energy.
Leo: Happy New Moon! This is your time to shine! Who you are has been waiting to come out, and it’s time to let your inner self shine authentically in your work, personal life, and relationships. Radiate your warmth and courage this month.
Virgo: Take a big, deep breath. Your season is up next, and you’ll be called to dig into all the productive vibes you love. For now, Leo is inviting you to be like a lion lying in the sun – rest, stretch softly, and listen inward. Use this time for a little reflection and set intentions around what you feel.
Libra: The world is your oyster, and the future is so freaking bright for you. This is Leo’s message, as the sign encourages you to set intentions for your true desires. It’s through these hopes and dreams that your vision comes to life!
Scorpio: Take some time to look at your long-term goals. What are you working on today that will set you up for the future? Think about this in terms of your legacy and the impression you leave on others. If you’ve felt the urge to step forward in a certain role, now’s the time.
Sagittarius: Craving adventure more than usual? Do something to satisfy that urge. It might mean taking a dance class, trying new restaurants and hangouts, or starting something brand new. That idea that’s been teasing you from the back of your mind? It’s time to set intentions and take action!
Capricorn: The New Moon is all about soul transformations for you. Let go of people, activities, and tasks that drain you, and set intentions to reclaim your truth and live authentically. Where are you giving your power away? It’s to stop that!
Aquarius: Your partnerships are in sharp focus under the Leo New Moon, and it goes far beyond your romantic partnerships. Think about your partnerships at work, in the community, with your familiars…the list is endless. Set intentions for authentic connections with others.
Pisces: How are your daily rituals supporting you? Is it time to create new ones? Edit the old ones? Your needs are important, no matter what your conditioning may tell you. Make sure you’re supporting yourself first, so you can then go out and support others.
Happy New Moon, witches!
