A new moon is always a time for new beginnings, a time to set intentions and present the universe with clarity around your desires—or ask for direction in seeking how best to meet the voice of the echo of your deepest heart-wish, your most profound soul-calling.

Leo, a fire sign that champions vitality, creativity, boldness and the energy of will, graces the skies and our spirits with its own intention to see each of us grow. It does this, however, in a cosmos gestating with the energy of numerous retrogrades—signaling a moment held in tension between momentum and contemplation.

As we gather in circle, we will take time to focus our thoughts, orient our energies and articulate our vision, offering the space and ignition to commit to our path.

Follow @artsofixchel on Instagram to participate, sending me a brief DM at least 24 hours in advance to let me know that you would like to join our circle.

All times listed in Pacific Standard Time. Energy exchange as you wish with Venmo @tzephi
