Leo season starts with a bang with this exceptionally creative and transformative New Moon in Leo on the 24th of July 2025. This New Moon is influenced by Pluto but also the Saturn-Neptune conjunction which is in retrograde and will reemerge in the summer of 2026, giving us a taste of the future.
This New Moon in Leo gets us dipping our toes into what is coming towards us and blesses us with Pluto, Saturn and Neptune to use this creative energy with awareness to create a promising new reality. So, what are we waiting for?
What’s in the stars?
This New Moon in Leo will be exact at 21:11h CET on the 24th of July with the Sun and Moon in conjunction at 2Âş of Leo.
It will also be opposed by Pluto at 2Âş of Aquarius. The point of Thales of this opposition, which is the point in which a planet(s) are in trine and sextile to the opposition, will be Saturn and Neptune at 1Âş and 2Âş of Aries respectively.
What’s the vibe?
Leo: the King of the Zodiac
This New Moon in Leo is exceptionally potent and transformative. As mentioned in the previous blog entry about the Full Moon in Capricorn, we’re currently getting a taste of what is to come in summer 2026 with the Saturn and Neptune conjunction that will be apparent again in summer 2026.
Leo is the sign of creativity, confidence, expression, child-like wonder and generosity. Leo is outgoing and isn’t scared of standing out or being the center of attention, it knows it’s meant to be seen and charms with its charisma and likeability. Therefore, the New Moon in Leo reminds us to embrace our being and be unapologetically ourselves, expressing what we feel called to express.
Pluto in Aquarius Opposition
Pluto is the planet that produces the deepest transformation on a personal and societal level as it is the planet that is further in our solar system and therefore takes longer to orbit the sun and go through the zodiac signs. Pluto in Aquarius is demanding us to be more authentic and demolish the structures that no longer cater to that authenticity, bringing us a bit of a “Tower Moment” from the Major Arcana. We either demolish what no longer serves our creative and expressive authenticity or it’ll happen to us because it no longer sustains our current self or reality.
The Saturn-Neptune Conjunction in Aries
This conjunction is ridiculously potent as Saturn is the planet that represents our long term commitments and Neptune is the planet of our imagination. With both planets in conjunction in mighty, fiery Aries, it is a reminder that there is strength in showing up with consistency and integrity.
Saturn is ushering us to be confident to put in the hard work and dedication to make our long term dreams come true, reminding us that we are not to be lead in our lives but to lead our own lives ourselves. Therefore, pay special intention on what arises on this day and the two days after the New Moon in Aries – whatever solidifies on this New Moon is likely to last.
What is fascinating is that this grounded Saturnian energy is complimented by Neptune’s more intuitive approach to life. Neptune is the planet of symbols, imagination and sensitivity. So, its influence with Saturn on this New Moon in Leo may bring a heightened artistic perception along with creative projects that may be urging to resurface in your creative practice.
So…?
This New Moon in Leo is a call to reconnect with our creative practice to transform our expression and simultaneously the way we show up for ourselves in the world.
Pluto promises monumental transformation if we treat this creative energy with authenticity and Saturn ensures that it will be a long lasting commitment.
Although this conjunction influencing this New Moon is incredibly powerful for its ability to have us committed long term and its heightened creative sensitivity, it is important to note that the Neptunian energy must be carried with awareness.
Neptune has us activating our imagination and creativity, using fantasy to create a new reality but it can also create a destructive fantasy to escape from reality. Allow Saturn to ground your fantasy to usher this creative energy in the most productive way possible.
Suggestions for this New Moon in Leo
1. Reflect on Your Creative Projects
Is there something creative that has been on your mind for quite a while, but you just haven’t found the time or the energy to get yourself to do it?
Or have you been thinking about something creative recently, but think your delirious for trying to do it?
Whether it’s putting up a new shelf, redistributing your bedroom, getting into sketching or picking up a new skill… Write these ideas down and use the New Moon in Leo’s energy to get you started.
2. Envision & Manifest
Given that this New Moon in Leo focuses on the expressive and intentional action to do something monumental that causes deep transformation… This is perhaps one of the most potent New Moons in 2025 to manifest to your heart’s desire.
Allow yourself to use Neptune’s imaginative energy to envision what new things you would like to bring into your life, not falling into the “social norm” of what you should desire… But rather Aquarius’ nudge to authenticity for what your heart truly desires.
3. Make a Collage
Leo wants us to be dramatic, expressive and creative without an end… So, once you write down your desires and manifestations – get yourself to materialise it through making a collage or anything you feel called to do!
When we allow ourselves to materialise our dreams into the physical form, it is almost as if we are opening a portal to bring this reality toward us… And something so simple as a collage can, without a doubt, do such powerful work.
