New Moon in Leo

The Moon catches up with the Sun at 9°55′ Leo on 2 August 2027, 10:07 UTC. Both bodies stand at the same degree, which is what a new moon is: the Moon is between us and the Sun, its lit face turned away, invisible from the ground.

Traditionally this is the start of a cycle rather than the end of one — the point at which something is begun quietly and without much evidence it will work. The fire quality of Leo colours what is being started: something is being risked rather than planned, and the impulse arrives before the reasoning does.

Because Leo is fixed, the cycle it opens tends to build slowly, hold on hard, and resist being redirected once underway.
