How is your month going? One of the most common things I have been hearing from clients, students and friends since 2020 is how they lack direction or have been profoundly changed and now don’t know what direction to take on a life path, or “feel like they am in a holding pattern!” or “just wish they knew the next step!” If you have been feeling this way too, believe me, you are NOT alone.
How did you get through that July 28 new moon in Leo? With the sun and moon aligning in Leo — and with communication planet Mercury in Leo, too — this moon is a great time for getting in touch with our passionate sides and connecting with the things that set our hearts ablaze. Intentions relating to love, creativity, confidence, and self-expression are all especially powerful now. Don’t forget to do your abundance check
LAW OF ABUNDANCE: DO THIS EVERY NEW MOON.
The Law Of Abundance – Learning To Receive
What are Abundance Checks?
Abundance checks are a tool we can use to create more abundance in our lives. They are written within 24 hours after a New Moon.
Surprisingly, you really don’t even need to believe that the check will work when you write it. You will however be amazed at the results, as you will see increased abundance in your life, in some life area. It is not always financial, but certainly in an area that you need.
Abundance is so much more than ‘money’. Perhaps a friend invites you to lunch and pays. Perhaps you are at lunch with a friend and they offer their expert advice on some area of your life. These are simple examples of Abundance. Abundance comes in many forms. Be GRATEFUL for all that comes into your life.
There is a traditional manner, which has been handed down. If you do not have a checking account you can draw a check on a piece of paper and fill it out the same way – the results will be the same, more abundance for you.
New Moon Abundance check writing is a ritual for manifesting, using the energy of the New Moon each month along with Astrology and the house the new moon touches on for you! This ritual has been handed down through so many people that its origin has become unknown.
Write the check for whatever you want to manifest.

After all, it’s ruled by Leo — the flirtatious fire sign symbolized by an intimidating feline.
Anyone born with astrological placements in fire sign Leo is best known for being self-assured, comfortable — and, OK, occasionally infatuated — with being in the spotlight, ambitious, and optimistic. That upbeat, driven vibe is owed to the sign’s ruler, the sun, which oversees self-image and confidence in astrology. And those are all themes you can expect to come up around this month’s Leo-ruled lunar event.
The Lion’s annual new moon will be exact on Thursday, July 28 ET/10:55 a.m. PT. With other fiery aspects occurring at the same time, it’ll set the stage for stepping into your sense of self, assertively expressing your needs, and moving forward with conviction.
A 5-Month-Long Retrograde Is Heading Our Way — But It’s More a Blessing Than a Curse
The new moon in Leo brings a hefty dose of romance and playfulness.
New moons — which happen when the confident sun pairs up with the intuitive moon — always present a monthly opportunity to get clear on which new chapter you want to write over the course of the next two weeks (up until the next full moon) and next six months (when the corresponding full moon occurs). Most new moons are considered opportune times to check ourselves and consider how we’ve been faring in a particular area of life, and this particular one, falling in Leo is a chance to open up about what’s in your heart, to play, and to nurture your self-confidence and creativity.
Associated with the fifth house of romance and self-expression, Leo’s all about flirtatious, fun, rose-colored moments in life, and those are precisely what your mind could be locked on right now. (Leo is also the fixed sign of the fire sign crew, so it has the tendency to make us laser-focused.) Whether you’ve been wanting to step up your dating game, set — and hold — better boundaries with someone in your life, open up about your needs in a long-term relationship, or dive into an imaginative project that’ll require hard work but could win you a round of applause, now’s the time.
And ruled by the brilliant, blazing sunshine, Leo exudes innate leadership qualities and self-assuredness and tends to believe that, even in the gloomiest moments, there’s a silver lining. While the world feels like a challenging place to live in lately, this blast of Leo energy could help you zero in on an achievement to celebrate, aspiration to pursue, or even an area in life in which you’re pumped to take on an even more authoritative role.
The moon’s trine to Jupiter amps up the enthusiasm.
With the moon falling at 05 degrees of Leo and Jupiter, the planet of abundance, fortune, and expansion, falling at 08 degrees of Aries, anything that is coming up for you around this new moon could feel even bigger, brighter, and bolder than usual. (The sun will also be approaching its trine to Jupiter, which will be exact on the 31st, so while there may not be much chill in these last days of July, you could stumble into a lot of luck.)
Maybe you’ve been thinking of planning a vacation, and now, it’s morphing into a full-scale, international revenge travel adventure. Or you’re ready to pitch a business proposal to higher-ups and what you’re sharing has morphed from a seed of an idea to something much more ambitious.
It could also be that emotions — it is the moon we’re talking about, after all — are running higher than usual. But fully embracing them, meeting them head-on, and being open to talking them through, as Leo is apt to do, comes more naturally — and is definitely the best way forward.
We’ll also be moving toward a highly charged Mars-Uranus meet-up.
There’s an underlying volatile, innovative, or simply surprise-packed tone to this new moon that isn’t quite stemming from the fact that it’s ruled by a sign symbolized by an intimidating feline. Instead, Mars, the planet of action, energy, and anger, will be moving toward a conjunction to Uranus, the planet of sudden change, revolution, and rebellion. Thankfully, this link-up, which is exact on August 1, is happening in a sign with a very long fuse: Taurus, the fixed earth sign. But it’s still a reason to expect the unexpected — like an epiphany about how you want to kick off a whole new chapter or perhaps blow-ups that feel more fit for a full moon.
Mercury’s moving toward an opposition to Saturn, straining one-on-one communication.
At the time of the new moon, Mercury, the messenger planet, will be closing in on an opposition to Saturn, the taskmaster planet, which oversees limitations, boundaries, and restrictions. On July 31, they’ll be exactly opposite in Leo (Mercury) and Aquarius (Saturn), which could cause some head-butting within partnerships around the best path forward. You could feel like you’re speaking a different language than your S.O., dearest friend, loved one, or colleague and might do well to take a step back to take care of your own needs (a very Leo lesson!) and what you can actually control versus pushing harder and harder to get on the same page.

We’re just over the line into Leo season, and the moon is already prepared to dazzle us. Rising on July 28, the July 2022 new moon will inspire us to chase after every last one of our passions. Leo’s regal vibes are all about basking in the spotlight and summoning up inner strength, and this lucky lunar moment will help us actualize our greatest potential. You’ll definitely want to know how July’s new moon will affect each zodiac sign.
As the sign ruled by the sun itself, Leo zodiac energy is all about positioning ourselves at the center of our own universes and prioritizing our desires accordingly. With the sun and moon aligning in Leo — and with communication planet Mercury in Leo, too — this moon is a great time for getting in touch with our passionate sides and connecting with the things that set our hearts ablaze. Intentions relating to love, creativity, confidence, and self-expression are all especially powerful now.
New moons in general are a good time for setting fresh intentions and kicking off new projects. But this Leo-ruled moon is bringing us an even luckier opportunity to chase our dreams, thanks to the luminaries’ mystical connection to auspicious planet Jupiter. Jupiter is the planet of growth, expansion, and abundance, so it’s bringing a go-big-or-go-home energy to this new moon and encouraging all zodiac signs to go for the gold. Lucky Jupiter is also beginning its annual retrograde period on the same date as July’s new moon, so we’re even more likely to feel its optimistic and faith-building influence in our lives.
It’s Leo season, baby, and Lions moon is the time to polish up your ego and let everyone hear you roar.

Your inner social butterfly is ready to flutter freely, Gemini!

Clear your schedule and pencil in some solo downtime under this new moon, Virgo. But don’t give into the urge to fill that time with chores or other at-home responsibilities!

By connecting with your spiritual self, you’ll feel so much more in tune with your everyday life.

Embarking on the unknown isn’t always easy, but right now is the time to branch out and take a risk.
If Your Zodiac Sign Is Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)
Don’t let anything get in the way of your growth now, Capricorn. This new moon may feel extra personal, as it’s hitting a sensitive part of your chart, but it’s also galvanizing you to set necessary boundaries within your relationships and ask for the help you need in order to thrive. You deserve to feel safe, supported, and self-confident as you embark on new endeavors. Use this boost of energy to regulate your energetic bonds as you embrace your transformation.
If Your Zodiac Sign Is Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18)
What’s happening in your closest relationships right now, Aquarius? Check in on the dynamics and make sure that all parties are being taken care of properly — including yourself! Now’s a time to prioritize your desires and ask for whatever you need from your partners. It’s also a time to make sure you’re making the other people in your life feel special. Acknowledge your worth, and then share your light generously.
If Your Zodiac Sign Is Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20)
Feeling too bogged down with work responsibilities to be your creative and spiritual self? That just won’t work, dear Pisces! Revamp your calendar and switch up your schedule to make more room for your free-spirited self to really shine. You deserve to have time to pursue your passions, explore your dreams, and connect with your inspiration — so make it a priority and honor it like you would any other responsibility.

The Emperor Description
If The Empress is the Mother archetype of the Tarot deck, The Emperor is the Father. He sits upon a large stone throne, adorned with four rams’ heads (symbolic of his connection with Aries and the planet Mars). In his right hand, The Emperor holds an ankh, the Egyptian symbol of life, and in his left is an orb representing the world over which he rules.
He wears a red robe, indicative of his power, passion, and energy for life. Underneath it, he wears a suit of armor, suggesting that he is protected from any threat (and any emotional response or vulnerability). His long white beard is symbolic of his age-old wisdom and experience, and along with his gold crown, he is an authority figure who demands to be heard.
Behind his throne looms a tall, impenetrable mountain range, signifying that he is backed by a solid foundation but resistant to making any changes unless he deems it necessary. Beneath the peaks flows a small river, giving some hope that despite his tough exterior, he is still an emotional being – it will just take a lot of digging and trust to open him up to his softer side.
How are you leading the way?
You have the knowledge and experience that you’ve gained throughout your life, and can use that to lead and guide others. The Emperor represents a powerful leader who demands respect and authority. Status, power, and recognition are essential to you.
You are most comfortable in a leadership role where you can command and direct others. Claim your authority as a leader and influencer and don’t let others put you down. If things seem a bit chaotic, consider how you can create calm out of it. Break down any challenges or problems into its parts and then map out the actions you need to take to resolve it.
This is the time to be systematic, strategic, and highly organized in your approach. Be sure to stick to your plans and see them through until the end.
Ask your Tarot cards: How can I step into my power?
The Emperor Upright
As the father figure of the Tarot deck, The Emperor suggests that you are adopting this fatherly role (regardless of whether you are male or female), providing for your family, and protecting and defending your loved ones. You may be the breadwinner or the ‘rock’ for those who rely on your stability and security.
Similarly, The Emperor represents a powerful leader who demands respect and authority. Status, power, and recognition are essential to you, and you are most comfortable in a leadership role where you can command and direct others. As a leader, you rule with a firm but fair hand. You have a clear vision of what you want to create, and you organize those around you to manifest your goal. You listen to the advice of others, but you prefer to have the final say. Conflict doesn’t scare you, and you won’t hesitate to use your power to protect those you care about. And in return, those people will repay you with the loyalty and respect you deserve. Claim your authority as leader and influencer and don’t let others put you down.
The Emperor reflects a system bound by rules and regulations. You create law and order by applying principles or guidelines to a specific situation. Create calm out of chaos by breaking down any problem into its parts and then mapping out the actions you need to take to resolve it. Be systematic, strategic and highly organized in your approach, and stick to your plan until the end.
The Emperor card also signifies world knowledge and expertise. Through the course of your life, you have gained valuable wisdom and life experience, and now you enjoy offering guidance, advice, and direction to someone who might benefit from it. You may be a teacher, coach, boss, or just a good friend who likes to take what you have learned and pass it on so that others can be as wise and powerful as you.
The Emperor Reversed
The Emperor Reversed calls on you to assess your relationship with power, control, authority, responsibility and discipline. Are you expressing too much or too little of these elements in your life right now? Are they working for you or against you?
In the reversed position, The Emperor can be domineering and rigid in his thinking. The card can suggest an over-use and abuse of authoritative power surrounding you. It could originate from you or from another person, often a boss, partner or father figure. And it may be because of deep insecurities or father issues from childhood.
Consider the role that power plays in your life. Are you asserting your power and dominance in a way that leaves others feeling powerless? Or are you giving away your personal power to please someone else, often a father-figure or a person in authority? Seek to find a solution where you lead from a place of personal power and enable others to do the same. Power can be equally and constructively distributed – you don’t need to take it from others, nor do you need to give yours away.
The Emperor Reversed may be a sign that others look to you as their leader or as an expert in the field but you are shying away from the role. You may fear being seen as the leader, instead preferring to hide in the shadows or stay out of the spotlight. There may be other ways you can make an impact and influence the world, such as authoring a book or training others to reach a bigger audience.
Sometimes, The Emperor Reversed asks you to stand up to authority. You may feel fed up with an overbearing boss or a hierarchical organization and feel compelled to enter a more flexible and adaptive environment. Maybe you aspire to be your own boss and work independently by starting up your own business. Or, you may seek a career where you can have greater flexibility and creativity in how you complete your work. You are sick of having to always work within the confines of a particular structure or way of doing things, and you want to break free from it.
When The Emperor Reversed pops up in a Tarot reading, pay attention to your commitment to your goals and your self-discipline to get the job done. If you are struggling to see any real outcomes, check that you have a plan in place, a routine to support it, and the dedication to see it through. You may need to get a little tough on yourself and do the uncomfortable work you’d prefer to avoid. But if you can harness the positive, upright energy of The Emperor, your efforts will lead to success.
In a relationship reading, The Emperor Reversed suggests that you may be in an unequal partnership and it‘s making you unhappy in the long term. Your significant other has become overbearing, possessive, dominating and authoritative. While you may have been looking for a partner to take care of you and offer a stable foundation for the future, those qualities have gone too far, and it seems as though much of your independence and freedom have been taken away. This dynamic is putting a strain on the relationship and preventing a flow of energies between you.

After diving deep into Cancer’s emotional and creative waters, Leo season is here to remind you of the royal abundance you deserve this summer. Leo, the fire sign that symbolizes nobility, boldness, and main character energy, started on Friday, July 22, this year, and will last until August 22. Ruled by the sun, it’s no surprise that Leo reigns during the peak of summer in the Northern Hemisphere, reminding us of our vitality, youthfulness, and vibrancy. This energy wants you to put yourself out there, be seen by others, and value yourself without any doubt or apprehension.
From now until August 22, all our lives are a stage.
Leo is the only sign ruled by the Sun, which means that this season is the one where the biggest star in our sky can shine the brightest — literally and figuratively. It is a time in which the solar concepts of creativity and vitality are at their highest point of the year. We tend to feel full of energy and courage to lead and enjoy the heat of summer — this is especially true as we come out of Cancer season and four weeks of intense emotions. We’ll experience a surge of energy, making now the perfect time to connect with our inner child and embrace our unique selves.
Leo season, when handled mindfully, can be an incredible time to practice vulnerability, authenticity, and overall star energy. That blog you’ve been wanting to make or TikTok account you want to build: Leo season says go for it! This astrological time of year is all about planting those first unashamed seeds that you can reap the harvest of come fall.
When the Sun is in Leo we often want to shine, be in the spotlight and receive attention, or even come across as dramatic, . Leo energy is not afraid to be front and center or extraordinary. Now is your time to shine in whatever endeavor you choose. If you take risks, say yes, and embrace being the star this season, you may just find yourself luckier than usual. This could be the astrological push we need to get out of our comfort zones. Dreams don’t become a reality unless you are not willing to reach for them, and with the Sun in mighty Leo, it is the perfect opportunity to strive after what you want!
On July 31, the Sun will form a gentle connection with Jupiter, the Planet of Luck and Optimism, which will bring us expansive energy. This is a day for recognition and celebrating yourself and how far you’ve come. Leo season, and especially this transit, want to remind you that it’s safe for you to take up space — so don’t be afraid to shine bright! Throw yourself and your friends a congrats-to-us dinner (or brunch, whatever floats your boat) to celebrate all you’ve accomplished in the year 2022. Whether you got a promotion, a new job, or just deep cleaned your bathroom for the first time, it’s worth having a fun get-together.
The next day, Mars and Uranus unite as Mars connects with the North Node in Taurus. This is an important time because we will be taking our power back and defining how we want to take action and propelling ourselves forward in the upcoming months.
Although the vibes will be pretty positive, this Leo season will come with its fair share of intensity. Mercury and the Sun will both be activating Mars and the Lunar Nodes of Destiny in Taurus as well as the ongoing Saturn-Uranus square. It will be a time of huge change, as the energy that has been stuck below the surface will come out in the form of unexpected events that will force us to make changes and big decisions. This is going to be greatly felt as we transition from July into August, and once again during this season’s full moon, which happens in Aquarius on August 11.
For the rest of Leo season, check in with our authentic sense of self and desires. She says to ask ourselves. Are you living in alignment? Are your actions bringing you joy? Are you truly living for yourself or have you been prioritizing others’ needs? Take a beat and see how you answer these questions — if it’s not up to your Leo season standards, then take action to change the course of the next month. Your inner lion is waiting.
