Daily Horoscope: New Moon in Leo, August 16, 2023

New Moon in Leo, Wednesday, August 16th, sets the stage for a personal vision quest undertaken to reveal the path of future growth and change as the moon conjunct the sun and Venus retrograde in Leo form a trine aspect with Chiron and the North Node in Aries, as well as a square aspect with Jupiter conjunct Uranus in Taurus. Mercury conjunct Mars in Virgo generates questions, the gathering of data, and the review of the past, as well as an analytical and spiritual consideration or the who, what, when, why, where, and how of manifesting your ideal vision, as those planets of thought and action in a mutable problem solving earth sign form a quincunx aspect to Chiron and the North Node, as well as an opposition to Neptune retrograde in Pisces, dividing a Kite and Grand Trine aspect pattern which involves Mercury/Mars, Jupiter/Uranus, Pluto, and Neptune. Venus, Saturn, Neptune, and Pluto are all retrograde, with Mercury and Uranus soon to follow. Don’t panic and cease all forward motion! Do review, revisit, repair, renew – and “re” wherever you see a need. You may have been lacking opportunity, resources, or knowledge in the past, but both you and circumstances have changed. Leo rules the 5th house of creativity and art, hobbies, dating and romance, children, sports, and gambling – where we enjoy life as earthbound gods, goddesses, and heroes. Leo is bold, dramatic, colorful, proud, playful, and warm. You can be all that now through participating in any Leo/5th house activity. Anticipate joy with the imagination and open heart of a child.
