If we are able to let go, the Leo New Moon on July 24, 2025, will come and sweep away all that is heavy and will challenge our desire to seek control and false power.
Where may we be micromanaging too much? Where are we trying to control the narrative or those around us? While control can give us a sense of power at times, this New Moon invites us to let go, surrender, and release the stress that can come when we try to grip too tightly.
Under the Leo New Moon, we are called to bring in acceptance, lightness, and simplicity, and this ritual is here to guide you.
This ritual is designed to help you shift the heavy weight you may be carrying and release control so you can move through the lunar cycle with joy and ease. This ritual is deliberately designed to be extra simple to keep with the theme! I hope you enjoy it!
Leo New Moon Ritual 2025
- Aura cleansing tool of choice
- Candle or bowl of water
- Piece of paper and pen
- Surrender to Peace Guided Meditation
1. Start by cleansing your aura using your chosen tool. As you cleanse your aura, recite the following affirmation:
“I cleanse my energy field with light and loving energy. I release all that is heavy and restore my energy to its perfect balanced state. I am aligned. I am centered. I am in my power.”
2.) Get nice and comfortable, light your candle, and do the Surrender to Peace meditation.
3.) From this state of relaxation, write an intention and place it under the candle, or if you prefer not to burn a candle, you can place the intention under a bowl of water.
4.) With your intention in place, recite the following affirmation or feel free to edit to suit your own needs-
“I use the energies of the Leo New Moon to surrender. I bring peace and flow into my life. I choose to accept all that I can no longer control. I ask to move with simplicity, grace, and ease. May my intention of (insert intention here) be heard and received by the Universe. Thank you.”
5.) Leave your intention under your candle or bowl of water overnight. You don’t have to have the candle burning all night.
6.) Discard the water in the morning by returning it to the Earth. You can keep using the candle as you wish. You can keep your intention somewhere you can see it all month, or if you prefer, keep it folded up and return to it in six months.
Happy New Moon!
