The Lion is upon us

Our Leo New Moon is on Sunday, August 8, at 6:49 a.m. PDT. Here are comments from shaman Lena Stevens about this lunation: "This is a moon when the open heart is inviting us to be progressive, inclusive and self-aware. Be prepared for a bit of chaos, possible accidents, and unexpected situations as we navigate a less-than-stable energy. You can be inspired and excited or get anxious and go into fear. Keep a sense of humor close and your attention on evolution, improvement and new possibilities. "This is a good time for releasing attachment, letting go of stubbornness, keeping an open mind, and working proactively with change. Consider and ask yourself how your management team of Curiosity, Optimism, Creativity and Humor can support you during this New Moon. "Make sure you have plenty of personal time to reflect on your own shi(f)t, and take responsibility for what is yours as well as setting good boundaries against what isn’t. If a direction you have been moving into suddenly changes due to a new insight or another’s choice, make the shift with grace and gratitude."
