As we continue to move through the month of August, the sun is setting on summer, guiding us closer and closer to the supermoon that is taking place later this month.  The energy of the supermoon, which occurred on August 16 at 5:38 am, is preparing us for this supercharged moment.  The New Moon in Leo is a powerful convergence that ushers in strong energetic forces that ignites inner self-expression and caters to our innermost desires.  It is like a spotlight, both truth-seeking and truth revealing. Things that were once hidden will be brought into the light.   It has the potential to fuel your passions, empower your womb healing, and help to illuminate your path to self-discovery. When you are living in your truth, it provides us with an opportunity to impress upon our womb wellness and mental health with increased fervor.  When you are living in a state of falsehood or out of alignment with your true self, this same type of energy can create chaos, if you let it.  Let’s lean into the affirmative, the positive aspects of this energy, and reclaim what’s ours. 

The New Moon in Leo

New Moons signify the start of each new lunar cycle, serving as a reminder that we, too, can start again.  During this time, we set our intentions, goals, and plans for the things we wish to call into our lives and manifest into the physical realm.  Leo, a fiery that is ruled by the sun.  It is a symbol of courage, self-expression, and self-awareness.  It encourages us to embrace our authentic selves and let our inner light shine unapologetically. The New Moon in Leo amplifies this energy, urging us to reconnect with our passions, creativity, and individuality.  The things that make us unique as humans.  To take the time to find ourselves again before reconnecting with others.  When we step into our true selves, we open ourselves to change and ultimately open ourselves to our own healing. 

How This Affects Womb Healing and Mental Health

This celestial alignment is a reminder that self-expression is a vital aspect of our well-being, contributing to both womb healing and mental health.  The New Moon in Leo invites us to dive deep into our emotional landscape. By nurturing our wombs, we can release stagnant energies and emotional blocks that have been obstructing our internal flow, our ability to practice self-love and self-compassion, and keeping us reliving past traumas.  This creates a space for renewal. This cosmic energy also offers a chance to enhance mental health by fostering self-confidence and embracing self-love through the renewal process. As we acknowledge and express our feelings, we embark on a journey of holistic healing.

Here are 6 Things You Can Do to Embrace the New Moon in Leo for Womb Wellness and Mental Health
