New Moon Meaning

Sun conjunct Moon represents the end of one cycle and the beginning of another new 28-day cycle. It gives an invigorating burst of energy and initiative. But it also brings emotional balance, not irrationally emotional, and not too cold and calculating.

So the New Moon in Leo 2022 is excellent for making a fresh start, turning over a new leaf, or starting a new project. You can also question old habits, behaviors, and beliefs as you search for new and inventive ways to make progress.

New Moon In Leo 2022 Aspects

New Moon trine Jupiter is only a mild influence but should still bring high spirits, enthusiasm, self-confidence and good fortune. Opportunities for personal, spiritual, and material growth can come through studies, travel, business and the law.

Sometimes this aspect makes you feel so content and comfortable that you don’t take advantage of the opportunities for growth that arise. But the tension provided by Mercury square Uranus will make it nearly impossible to sit back and relax.

Mercury square Uranus brings excitement and sudden change which can cause tension, anxiety and impulsiveness. Unexpected events or upsetting news may force you to change plans. An increased need for excitement or amusement makes you easily distracted and less responsible or dependable.

Miscommunication and misunderstanding could lead to disagreements. Rushed thinking and confusion increase the risk of making mistakes, saying the wrong thing and offending others. So think twice before making bold statements, and double-check travel plans. Avoid making spontaneous decisions or agreeing to things under pressure.

Remaining flexible and open-minded is key to dealing with this erratic influence on the New Moon July 2022 astrology. On the positive side, you have an increased ability to view things from a different perspective, which can lead to original ideas and creative breakthroughs. Chance encounters and exciting new friendships are also possible.
