The New Moon in Leo
This month, the New Moon coincides with Leo, taking place on August 19 at 3:41am. This will be the perfect time to make important decisions. Why? Because, according to Grazia, the New Moon in Leo ‘allows you to set new goals and gives you the power to achieve them.'
As the media has reported, this month will be full of travelling, outings, parties and communication, and that’s not all. Optimism, love and friendship will also be at a high in August and the weeks that follow.
That’s enough to get you back to school with the right frame of mind, don’t you think?
The concept of the New Moon
If you are not yet familiar with the concept of the New Moon, here is a very clear scientific explanation.
The New Moon is a lunar phase during which the moon is between the Earth and the Sun. During this phase, it is not visible in the sky, since the alignment of the Sun, Moon and Earth leaves the side of Moon that faces the Earth in darkness. However, the Moon will be visible again about a day after the New Moon.
When will the next New Moon take place?
The next New Moon will be on September 17 2020 at 1pm. We can’t wait to find out what it has in store for Virgos!
