THE PORTAL OF EXISTENCE
On July 24th, 2025, the New Moon in Leo rises at 2°, opening what feels less like a lunar cycle and more like a portal. This July 2025 New Moon invites us to remember the joy, courage, and authenticity of simply existing — not in performance, but in presence.
Leo, ruled by the Sun, is the sign of creative expression, heart-led leadership, and unapologetic individuality. At its highest, Leo energy is radiant and generous, shining not to compete, but to inspire. And during this New Moon, Leo is not alone — the Moon is opposed by Pluto, triggering transformation at the root of your identity. Supportive connections to Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus remind us that awakening isn’t just a concept — it’s a felt experience, both liberating and grounding.
This is not a time for forced reinvention. It’s a time for sacred remembering — of who you were before the world told you who you had to be.
The Simplicity of Being
Before there were roles to perform, identities to craft, or expectations to meet, you simply were. A child, joyful and alive, full of curiosity, not needing a reason to sing, dance, or rest.
But for many, this innocent expression was interrupted. Maybe you were told you were too much. Maybe you learned that being lovable meant being helpful, quiet, high-achieving, or invisible. Slowly, being turned into doing.
Joy became conditional. Identity became a mask.
This July 2025 New Moon calls you to return to the purity of being. Like a lion basking in the sun without apology, this is your reminder that your existence is enough. You don’t need to prove your worth.
Your life is the proof.
The Fire of Becoming
With Pluto in opposition, this New Moon may stir discomfort — the raw awareness of where you’ve sacrificed your truth in exchange for safety or approval. Pluto’s work is surgical: it removes everything false so the essence of your being can emerge.
But this isn’t punishment. It’s power.
When you no longer seek permission to be who you are, you unlock a deeper kind of success — one that isn’t performative or exhausting. One that arises from alignment.
Leo energy helps you express from the inside out. This isn’t about shouting to be seen. It’s about showing up because you see yourself. And that’s enough.
Let this be the moment you reclaim your voice, your desires, your creative essence — not to chase validation, but to reflect your true nature into the world.
That’s what real impact looks like.
The Courage to Create
With Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus forming an energetic support system, this New Moon balances the fire of Leo with emotional maturity, spiritual guidance, and the courage to break old patterns.
You may feel the call to create something new — a project, a vision, a more honest version of your life. But the invitation is deeper than goals or outcomes.
The invitation is to create from your being, not your wounding. To make your joy the blueprint for your action.
Leo says: Do it with love, or don’t do it at all. Saturn says: Commit to what matters. Uranus says: You’re free to choose again. Neptune says: Let spirit guide the way.
This is the portal of existence. And you hold the key.
July 2025 New Moon in Leo: The Portal of Existence
The July 2025 New Moon doesn’t ask you to invent a new self. It asks you to shed the false selves. To remember the child who existed without condition — and begin again, as them, with the wisdom of who you’ve become.
Let this New Moon mark the moment you stop trying to become someone… and start embodying the truth of who you already are.
No need to rush.
No need to prove.
Only the sacred rhythm of being, followed by the inspired rhythm of doing.
With love and care,
