About the Leo New Moon
Harness your inner radiance and share your light from the inside out with the Leo New Moon. On Wednesday August 16 2:38 am PST (5:38am EST), the celestial sphere blesses us with the voluminous, fiery Leo New Moon in 2023. Times of new beginnings, new moons bring alignment between the sun and moon – curating a pristine celestial incubator to set intentions to grow and manifest, setting themes for the next 6 months until the corresponding Leo full moon. Rising in alignment with Leo sun, the Leo New moon is powerful time to set intentions around leadership, confidence, optimism, creativity, and self expression–whatever and however you radiate your inner light out into the world.
Like the myth of the undefeatable Nemean Lion that could only be killed through strangulation at the throat (our center of expression), one’s unique, creative self-expression takes center stage with Leo. A sign of creativity, leadership, passion, and joy, the Leo New Moon is a key time to work on manifesting new found sense of self expression, confidence, and leadership. Use this Leo new moon for rituals to align to a more vibrant sense of self – to work on positivity and heart-to-heart connection, to honor your creative self expression, draw the attention and recognition you deserve with warmth and radiance, to be the leader in your life or industry, or just use this as a time to pamper yourself in true Leo fashion! Embrace your originality, find your inner strength and purpose, and co-create with the universe with this new moon alignment.
So whether looking for Leo party ideas to let your inner light shine, or Leo recipes to source your inner optimism, these Leo recipes (cocktail & nonalcoholic drink versions) are perfect libations to radiate from the inside out!
