Aspects and how they affect our daily lives:

  • Conjunctions: Variable, they can present either positive or challenging events/situations and people depending on the signs and planets involved
  • Quincunx: Challenging, they can create frustrations regarding dealings with people, events or situations… the “actors” involved do not share any similarities. 
  • Opposition: Challenging, as the “actors” are at odds with each other, but with a little work and patience compromises can be made
  • Squares: Challenging, due to friction between the “actors” involved, however, friction can bring about needed change… while frustrating these little guys, can help us to grow. 
  • Sextile: Positive, the “actors” involved are happy to be together and more then happy to work together, good things are possible
  • Trine: Positive, good for chilling out, and relaxing, these guys are also happy to be together, but neither one may have the motivation to do anything, so it’s possible that nothing constructive will get done with these guys in play. 
  • All planetary movement, will affect those who have such active players (planets/signs) in their birth charts, the rest of us may feel the affects too, but to a lessor extent. However, those with opposite sign placements may also be affected by such movements, to lessor extent, but perhaps more then those who have no such personal chart placements.

SGC gives thanks to Karen for her inspirational words, created in her “Messages from the Rose” Card Deck.

We don’t have a last name for Karen, she was one of our consignment family from when we had our physical store front, many years ago, We are grateful to have retained one deck of Karen’s cards, and we are delighted to share her positive outlook with you all.

August 6 2025:

 

“Treasure your profound sense of humour, 

Honour the ability to laugh amid strife and earthly furor,

When life becomes too intense and you simply need to vent,

Allow your humour to unfold for it is a gift that is heaven sent,

To have the ability to simply laugh at the trials that continually press,

Your laugher then becomes a much needed release from tension and stress”.

The Moon & Astrology; how it affects our daily life: Transiting New Moon In Leo August 2025

Present Moon Sign/Phase/House:

Sign on the zodiac a lion Stock Vector - 12485132
http://www.123rf.com: Copyright : Liudmila Pantelejenkova

  • Date: July 24 @11:28am (ET) @8:28am (PT)
  • Moon Sign: Leo 
  • Moon Phase: 4th
  • Void-off-Course: July 26 @7:02am (ET) @4:02am (PT) to moon into Virgo later in the afternoon:  Leo Moon v/c is not one of the 4 “good signs”
  • Opportunity Period: July 25th 10:58 am (ET) 7:58 am (PT) to void of course moon.
  • Wait two hours after the conjunction to allow enough separation of the Moon from the Sun and use this OP for self-improvement, relationship building or what ever interests youPB

What does it all mean?

  • The Leo Moon Loves Drama, so be warned… 
  • The Leo Moon loves to noticed and recognized, so be prepared to “pump up” your loved ones and if you happened to have a Leo influence in yourself, be aware of how you may be going about getting recognized or appreciated… If you play your cards right this could be a positive time when you get to be where you need to be.
  • Try not to be overly “vain” and be prepared for drama at any-time from any direction
  • Try not to over react and if it’s not you doing the over reacting, try not to get caught up in the drama, or to encourage the over reactor
  • It’s a good time to check out the local talent, take in a down town show, get starry-eyed with your lover, or perhaps look for a new one, as romance is high on the priority ladder during this time. 
  • Might prove positive for hair cuts, make overs. 
  • The Moon in Leo may be good for the following activities:
  • Beauty Treatments (Better when the moon is in the 1st or 2nd quarter):
  • Break Habits:
  • Buying a home (Better when the moon is in the 1st quarter):
  • Entertaining Guests:
  • Fixing cars:(Better when the moon is in the 1st or 2nd quarter):
  • Hair cut for thickness  (Better when the moon is in the 1st or 2nd quarter):
  • Moving:
  • Mowing the lawn to retard growth:
  • Painting:
  • Pouring cement (Better when the moon is in the 3rd quarter):
  • Starting a diet:
  • Starting new construction (Better when the moon is in the 1st quarter):
  • Staring a new job (Better when the moon is in the 1st or 2nd quarter)
  • This moon period will affect everyone, but more so those who have the following in their charts: And those who have a strong Capricorn or Aquarius placement in their charts. 
    • Moon in Leo:
    • Sun in Leo:  
    • Moon in Aquarius
    • Sun in Aquarius
    • Moon in the 5th house 
    • Aspects to the Moon, Sun or Uranus
    • Ascendant in Leo
    • Mid-heaven in Leo
  • NOTES:
  • The New Moon occurs on July 24 @3:11 pm (ET) @12:11 pm (PT) in the sign of Leo:
  • All of the above will be “bigger” under the New Moon energy, presently in the 4th quarter.
  • It is said that the new moon is a good time to begin projects, relationships, jobs etc… Wait until the 19 when she is fully into the 1st quarter to begin anything.
  • Leo interests such as FUN, Speculation, Children, Creativity and Animals will be highlighted during this months New Moon. 
  • The Sun moved into the sign of Leo on July 22 @9:29 am (ET) @6:29 am (PT). Leo is organized, creative, smart and can be slightly lazy, but he/she usually always steps up to the plate when the need is real…
  • Risk takers, the Leo can accomplish much in life, but they must be careful of not taking risks just for the sake of taking them… Leo is a fixed, fire sign, with Aquarius being the opposite sign to Leo…  Happy Birthday to all the Leo’s out there, we wish you a year ahead filled with good health, prosperity, love and tons of fun…

The Moon and Astrology

How it affects our daily lives… 

In astrology, the moon is connected to our emotions and reactions… how we are feeling on a given day may well be influenced by the sign that is visiting the moon… Each sign stays with the moon for up to 2.5 days…. :) 

The Moon Void-of-Course: 

There are times throughout the month when the moon is not fully immersed in any sign… this is when we say the moon is Void of Course… and when this occurs, we may feel “foggy” and “unfocused” … We may not be sure how we are truly feeling about a situation or a person…. Therefore it is not recommended that we make long-term commitments or important decision’s while the moon is Void of Course…. However there are 4 signs in the zodiac which may prove positive during the Void-of-Course moon… 

Good for Void-Of-Course Moon:

These v/c signs may prove to be quite productive times.

  • Cancer
  • Taurus
  • Sagittarius
  • Pisces…

Opportunity Periods  (thanks to astrologer Jim Shawvan):

There are other periods throughout the month that are known as opportunity periods, when it can prove to be a positive time for most people, however if you have challenging aspects happening within your own chart you may not be able to make use of opportunity periods. 

Thanks to Paula Belluomini astrologer,  and Llewellyn’s Daily Planetary Guide for opportunity periods, and moon/planetary movements and times.
