It's the Leo New Moon on August 18 at 7:42 pm PDT so get ready to set your intentions for the moonth ahead with the help of this video and blog post during which I share some Leo Goddess energy along with a lefty card and a spirit animal to really help you get the job done, or to help make a decision you've been putting off for a while. Mercury is now direct AND out of the shadow so it's time to get to work, but most importantly, to have FUN doing it!
Sparkly Blessings!

Leo Goddess – Cybele
Cybele Mountain Mother,
Great goddess earth,
In divine madness we worship
And celebrate her birth.
Cybele or “Mountain Mother” is an Earth Goddess originally worshipped in Turkey. She appears as a full-breasted and mature woman carrying corn and keys and wearing a crown and robe the color of all the flowers of the earth over which she ruled.
Lefty Oracle Card: Now the Real Work Begins
Mantra: I am gifted.
Affirmation: I am a conduit for the divine.
Element: Earth
When this card appears in a reading it means business. What IS your ‘real work’; the work that matters to you on a soul-deep level? The work you MUST do before you die. Define that first. Then ask yourself, “Am I doing my ‘real work’ consistently or is it even on my radar?” If your ‘real work’ is still a mystery to you, it’s time to awaken to your soul’s calling and uncover your true gifts. You can start by looking back at your childhood and pin-pointing your favorite parts. Next, look at your current favorite activities or times when you’ve been so absorbed you lost track of time. If nothing comes to you, ask a friend to point out your strengths or take the StrengthsFinder test (from the book StrengthsFinder by Tom Rath).
In my own life I purchased the StrengthsFinder book, took the test and identified my top five strengths which helped me focus on my strengths rather than my weaknesses so that I could truly shine.
Creative Journal Prompt
Where are you at with your ‘real work’? Have you started it yet? Or are you still figuring things out or perhaps you are at a complete standstill? Wherever you are on your journey is exactly where you need to be. Take a moment now to contemplate this then write down whatever you come up with. If you’re stuck try double doodling which is a technique that involves using both hands to draw freely at the same time. This stimulates both sides of the brain in an empowering and grounding way.
Expressive Body Movement Challenge
To help shift your cells/body/mind just a smidge and to gain new perspective try imitating the pose of the Lefty in this card until you feel yourself shifting gears internally. Then hold out a bit longer, rest and go back to your journal exercise and write some more without thinking…just write.
