LEO NEW MOON at 08°♌37′: Thu Aug 1, 2019, 03:12 UTC
♈ ♉ ♊ ♋ ♌ ♍ ♎ ♏ ♐ ♑ ♒ ♓
The Leo New Moon, with its combined stellium of energies, suggests that your career direction and public standing undergo much activation this month…
…and unless you are your own boss, there may be disruptive events which serve to redirect you towards proclaiming your own sense of honour and importance in the world.
Exactly how you go about earning your much deserved sense of recognition, especially under conditions where power struggles and sacrifices are constantly causing tensions for you from those among your ranks, is another matter altogether.
Patterns and Potential Pitfalls:
Much comes under scrutiny from others who are in a position to judge you. You are a striking, compelling character and just your presence alone makes you stand out more than others. You are a force to be reckoned with, even prone to rise to public notability for the kind of things you manage to accomplish. Much depends on how the world chooses to judge you for your achievements.
You will probably fail to listen to well-meaning advice, and a stubborn need for self-assertion can lead you towards those very experiences and problems that you were being warned against. If you look honestly at your life, you will observe those times where you misjudged, making foolish decisions and choices, often through sheer contrariness and by asserting your ‘free individuality’.
Of course, being intensely extreme in your maneuvers, if the things you do are driven by your interminable drive to succeed just for the sake of being in control – not for the contributions you make to the whole, then you may be in for another kind of public recognition – one that does not necessarily leave you in a favourable light.
Resisting External Pressure:
Just know, that you have the chance of exhibiting how you can contribute back to life as a warrior of Light and fierce protector of all those who seek guidance and deliverance from the awful auspices of pain and oppression. Doing anything for social acclaim, whether under the pressure of someone above you who promises personal reward or threatens severe consequences, is going to lead to dramas.
You must find the strength and discipline to succeed with your own mind, without someone else providing the motivation with carrots or sticks. It is wise to exercise your own will at the command of your heart, not an outside authority figure. This often means going against the fearful opinions in your mind that may tempt you with illusions of punishment and rewards. Having the discipline to follow your own heart, even when tempted by another person’s opinion requires disciplined practice.
Your Sacred Mission:
Becoming known as a champion for the plight of others less powerful than you will eventually bring you into positions of leadership, even privilege, fame, and prestige- at least some level of superiority. How you integrate such a position into a more selfless mission, providing spiritual leadership, sacred teaching, and the advancement of awareness throughout your world will determine the extent of your trajectory. At heart must lie the discipline to do great work that will assist humankind on its great journey forward.
Guard against the falling into the external trappings and enticements of using your immense hold over others to harvest personal power, wealth, sex & prestige and apply your rich, transformative power to regenerate your world into a state of re-empowerment and fulfilment for all.
New Moon Intention
I aim to persist upon a suitable path in this life which allows me to express my vision for tomorrow. The promises of notable recognition for what I do best will only become realised if I overcome all distractions or aversions from either partners or adversaries. I am stronger and more determined to attain my objective, despite the fiercest opposition to dissuade me.
I acknowledge that some things about me must be pursued independently if they are to prosper and advance my prominence and expertise in the world.
I know that I have what it takes to be a self-made person, without the need to rely on people in important positions just to get ahead.
I am capable and sure of my own ability to achieve my goals and ambitions without having to compromise the integrity of my skills or ethics, especially against the forceful or aggressive attempts of those who try to have it their way, or attempt to stop my best efforts.
I will avoid quarrels with others in my quest to succeed in my quest by staying focused upon my worthy intent. After all, my intent is for the greater good of all, and I must stay true to this.
If I am not already in a position where I am capable of making use of my visionary talents to gain satisfactory financial security and freedom, it is time now to assess how I can find a way to become self-employed and to generate my own business.
