Andi, our store manager in the Oakland location, is an amazing astrologer! We have a New Moon coming up tomorrow morning, so we asked about what energy shift can we look forward to. Here is what he has to say:

RAWWWR!! Can you hear the Lion's roar?

This Sunday 8/8 at 6:45am PST we have a new moon at 16 degrees Leo. This new moon is an excellent time to call in more bravery, creativity, generosity and self-confidence. However, we can't ignore that this new moon is creating a T-square with Saturn in Aquarius and Uranus in Taurus, which are in a tense aspect for the rest of 2021 and into 2022. We have been living with this tension between freedom and restriction, revolution and tradition, all year long.

The regal Leo new moon invites us to respond to the external uncertainty by taking action where we do have control: our selves.

Here's a new moon ritual you can do:
Write a letter to your future self about everything you love about yourself in the present and everything you imagine you will love about this future self too. You can burn a gold or orange candle on top of the letter and dance in celebration of the you that you are becoming! Read this letter in 6 months on 2/16 on the Leo Full moon and see how much you have grown.
