New Moon (Moon Leo)
Ed Kluska’s Astrology Timing Report
With Moon in Leo from Wednesday morning until Friday morning, three * factors are active, two of which become exact late Wednesday evening EDT.
The first is a New Moon at 08 degrees Leo which is relevant for the house in your horoscope ruled by Leo and for anyone with planets and points around 08 degrees Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius.
The second is Mercury turning direct, which is relevant for everyone but especially Gemini and Virgo because Mercury rules these two signs.
The third is Venus 90 Uranus which is more relevant for those born around the twenty-seventh of January, April, July, and October and those with points or planets around 06 degrees of Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius.
The complete descriptions for these factors and other relevant aspects are in the Daily Aspects section in this newsletter.
Moon in Leo favors Leo, any planets you have in Leo, and to a lesser degree the other fire signs, Aries and Sagittarius. Moon in Leo also supports anyone’s involvement with Leo–related activities such as anything dramatic, glamorous, and in the public limelight; fun, romance, and courtship; connecting more with children and loved ones; parties, entertainment, hobbies, and recreation; theater, art, and creative endeavors; and wherever leadership and self-assurance can be applied.
Sun Sign Trends with Moon in Leo
A complete assessment of what is occurring in your horoscope is far more complex and involved than what any newsletter can present. For example, there are dozens of factors to consider besides your sun sign, such as the transits to all the other planets and points in your horoscope. However, merely being aware of the current transits to your sun's position as explained below can be invaluable because the outer planets (Uranus Neptune Pluto), for example, can create life-altering trends and events. For a complete assessment of what is occurring in your horoscope and life, contact me.

Daily Aspects with Moon in Leo
Wednesday, July 31
09:18 AM Moon enters Leo where it remains until Friday morning when it enters the next sign, Virgo.
02:39 PM - (Moon in Leo 135 Neptune in Pisces) increases the possibilities for haziness and emotional confusion as well as highly refined artistic and spiritual feelings and aspirations. This period is better for daydreaming, imagination, creativity, prayer, and meditation than for logical discussions and clear-cut decisions.
04:50 PM + (Moon in Leo 00 Venus in Leo) this lovely once a month lunar aspect fosters cooperation, cheerfulness, affections, pleasantries, gracefulness, emotional sharing, and artistic expression, especially involving females.
07:54 PM - (Moon in Leo 90 Uranus in Taurus) this emotionally charged aspect occurs twice a month and increases instincts and willfulness, but also brings nervousness, anxiety, fears, upsets, restlessness, excitability, volatility, and emotionally charged situations.
* 11:11 PM (New Moon at 08 degrees Leo) Sun entered Leo on July 22 and today Moon in Leo “catches up” to the Sun to create a New Moon. New Moons represent new beginnings and fresh starts and emphasize the house in your horoscope ruled by the sign involved, which in this case is Leo.
* 11:57 PM (Mercury turns direct) which should bring relief because Mercury retrograde periods tend to be problematic for many people. As opposed to the exact day Mercury turns direct, the five days before and after Mercury goes direct are important because there are usually significant shifts and changes with our plans, decisions, negotiations, projects, and relationships. The choices you made and the plans you started with Mercury retrograde are now seen in a different light as unforeseen assumptions and mistakes "come to light” because Mercury, the planet ruling thinking and communication, is changing direction relative to the earth’s movement. All this does not mean that by this coming weekend, everything will be fine and dandy for you and the world. Nor does this mean everything was supposed to go wrong the past three weeks when Mercury was retrograde.
Thursday, August 01
08:52 AM + (Moon in Leo 120 Jupiter in Sagittarius) this emotionally uplifting aspect helps interpersonal situations including meetings and working with the public because it increases the possibilities for kindness, benevolence, positive attitudes, shared feelings, and uplifting emotional support.
10:23 AM - (Moon in Leo 150 Saturn in Capricorn) this emotionally restrictive aspect typically creates anxieties, worries, fears, and differences. However, it can also provide an atmosphere for orderly, practical, and realistic plans and activities.
02:41 PM - (Moon in Leo 150 Neptune in Pisces) increases the possibilities for haziness and emotional confusion as well as highly refined artistic and spiritual feelings and aspirations. This period is better for daydreaming, imagination, creativity, prayer, and meditation than for logical discussions and clear-cut decisions.
04:47 PM + - (Moon in Leo 00 Mars in Leo) this intense, once a month lunar aspect magnifies feelings, passions, and motivations, and can also bring upsets, impatience, impulsiveness, strong desires, and even anger and forceful actions. If you are trying to resolve an issue with someone, for example, be aware that upsets and volatile emotions are more likely than rational thinking.
07:43 PM - (Moon in Leo 150 Pluto in Capricorn) can complicate relationships with subtle yet emotionally charged situations including manipulation, hidden motives, and power struggles, although these factors may not be fully realized until later.
07:43 PM Moon in Leo Void until 09:20 AM Friday when it enters the next sign, Virgo.
This Void is longer than usual (more than half a day), so take note because during Void periods there tends to be a lull in the energy levels, and what you start, or implement is less likely to turn out the way you planned or expected. It’s usually better to do things with less significance or no purpose in mind versus trying to start something new and vital. If you have a new idea, meet someone new, or start a business, for example, those activities are less likely to amount to much.
Friday, August 02
* 06:00 AM + - (Venus in Leo 90 Uranus in Taurus) this twice a year aspect in effect for days increases the possibilities for unconventional attractions and new adventures with relationships. A person with this aspect in their horoscope tends to be independent, excitable, impulsive, and unpredictable with their love life, which results in love adventures and passing love bonds. They are also capable of novelty and creativity with a wide range of artistic talents.
09:20 AM Moon enters Virgo where it remains until Sunday morning when it enters the next sign, Libra.
Guidelines for Using This Information
These newsletters are not your typical sun sign column. They provide much more information and guidance, but with so many factors presented, it can be difficult to sort everything out, even for students of astrology. I try to keep everything as clear and straightforward as possible.
Keep in mind that these newsletters are not intended to tell you what is going to happen in your life at the times given. Instead, the aspect descriptions provide some of the possible influences you can expect around the times given so you can more wisely plan for and participate in your life. Often, it is obvious which time frames are better than others for timing or starting a party, trip, decision, business, or any other event, for example.
The star (*) factors are more significance for right timing because they are in effect for a more extended time (up to a week or more). Any business, project, decision, relationship, wedding, and childbirth, for example, started around the dates given will have the qualities and characteristics of the descriptions listed.
The lunar (Moon) aspects listed are less significant than the * factors because they are in effect for only hours (versus days) before and until the Eastern Time given, but they are still quite relevant for right timing.
The plus (+) factors for both the * factors and lunar factors are favorable. The minus (-) factors are more likely to bring challenges or difficulties. Sometimes there is a + and - factor, which means the aspect can exhibit both positive and negative influences.
The most critical factor with right timing is what’s occurring in your horoscope. When negative aspects dominate your horoscope, the chances of success with right timing diminish no matter how favorable the aspects are in the sky. These newsletters cannot cover what is occurring in your horoscope, but if you apply the information in these newsletters with common sense, you have an advantage with timing your decisions and activities.
The basic premise with right timing is that it helps to have the "stars" on your side. Starting a marriage, trip, surgery, business, real estate deal, or a major purchase, for example, at an inopportune time reduces the chances of success no matter how good your intentions and how hard you try. The better the timing, the higher your chances of success. Even an hour can make a significant difference with important decisions and events.
During Void periods there tends to be a lull in the energy levels, and what you start, or implement is less likely to turn out the way you planned or expected. So, it’s usually better to do things with less significance or no purpose in mind versus trying to start something new and vital. If you have a new idea, meet someone new, or start a business, for example, those activities are less likely to amount to much.
The Moon enters each sign of the zodiac about every 28 days and remains in that sign for about two and a half days. When the Moon’s in your sun sign, matters are likely to come more together for you on a short-term basis unless there are significant aspects currently challenging your
horoscope.
Note that the traits and qualities I assign to each sign in these newsletters describe more the functions and meanings of the signs versus trying to describe your personality, although at times the descriptions may be entirely accurate. Furthermore, to understand a person’s personality and character from an astrological perspective, there are a multitude of factors in a horoscope to consider besides one's sun sign.
To know what’s going on in your horoscope, and to make better decisions at better times, contact me. We will schedule a private consultation at my office or on the phone, so you can know more about your future and better understand the issues and opportunities in your life as well as your relationships, job, career, education, finances, children, parents, travel, health, location, retirement, karma, and purpose in life.
