How long since you expressed yourself creatively?
New moon in Leo asks us if we’re a lion or a mouse as how we see ourselves determines how we interact with the world.
Regardless of our natal astrology, we generate confidence through self-expression. The more we express ourselves, the more confident we feel. So, ask yourself, ‘What creative urge needs to be expressed in my life?’
We are all creative since we all come from the creative source of all life. We may be a creative thinker, dresser, lover, educator, homemaker, gardener, craftsperson, thespian, ceremonial priestess, artist or all of the above!
The more we express our creative spark in the areas that excite our enthusiasm, the more creative energy we generate…so we feel playful, youthful and fun to be around. So, ponder if you’ve got an urge to try a new hobby, rekindle a creative pursuit, share an idea or discuss your feelings or thoughts.
Leo asks us to honour our true essence, our divine spark by doing that which we love and sharing it with others. Leo is ruled by the Sun so the more we do what makes our heart sing the happier we feel.
If you don’t feel confident expressing yourself to the world at large, (or even those around you) start by doing it just for you and observe your inner light grow.
Leo asks us to participate and to lighten up through play. So if it’s been too long since you did something silly, consider having a games night, singing karaoke or doing improv comedy.
Leo asks us to be fearless. This can only be done when we lead from the heart. The mind focuses on what could go wrong whereas the heart focuses on what could go right.
So, if you’ve been feeling pessimistic, fearful and plagued by self-doubts, encourage yourself with acts of kindness, just as you would a small child trying something for the first time.
If you notice your voice getting tight, quick and high in pitch, this is a sign your mind is running the show, flooding your nervous system with cortisol the stress hormone so that your breathing becomes shallow… take a deep breath down to your toes and sigh like a lion letting out a roar to release tension in your jaw.
