🌑✨ Virgo New Moon – A Turning Point in Rela

🌑✨ Virgo New Moon – A Turning Point in Relationships ✨🌑

On 23 August at 15:06 JST, the New Moon rises at 1° Virgo, under the Sabian Symbol “A Man’s Head”.
This symbol heightens clarity and sharpens our vision, helping us see patterns and truths that were previously hidden.

💫 Why is this New Moon so important?
• It’s followed by a Pisces Full Moon with a lunar eclipse on 8 Sept 🌕
• And then a second Virgo New Moon on 22 Sept, this time at the very last degree of Virgo 🌑
👉 Together, these mark two months of destiny-shaping turning points.

🌱 Main Themes:
• Health, habits, and lifestyle shifts
• Redefining roles and responsibilities in relationships
• Soul-level changes: pregnancy, marriage, or commitments
• Letting go of old attachments, worries, and rigid patterns
• Transformation around shared resources, trust, and intimacy

💞 Relationships highlighted:
This New Moon brings opportunities to look deeply into your closest bonds. Partnerships, family ties, and personal connections may undergo significant transformation. At the same time, Venus and Jupiter bring blessings, joy, and abundance—reminding us who truly matters.

✨ The coming 1–2 months invite breakthroughs in partnerships, meaningful encounters, and life changes that align you with your authentic path.

This summer, I travelled with my daughter to Gujo

This summer, I travelled with my daughter to Gujo Hachiman, where we joined the Bon Odori dance—a festival with over 400 years of history.

In Japan, mid-August (13th–16th) is Obon, a time to welcome and honour the spirits of our ancestors. Across the country, people gather in yukata, joining festivals, fireworks, and Bon dances. In Gujo, the Bon Odori continues for an entire month, and during Obon itself, the dancing goes on from 8pm until 4am.

Astrologically, this season coincides with the so-called “Dog Days” abroad, and in the spiritual community, the Lion’s Gate Portal. This year, Jupiter and Venus were both in Cancer, emphasising themes of family, gratitude, and connection with our roots—perfectly aligned with the essence of Obon.

Japan’s summer is also a time of remembrance: Hiroshima on 8 August, Nagasaki on 9 August, and the end of WWII on 15 August, right in the middle of Obon. For us, this season holds both joy and reflection.

In Gujo, I saw visitors from overseas dancing in yukata with bright smiles. It truly felt like a scene of world peace. I hope many more people will experience this unique atmosphere.

New Moon in Leo – 25 July

On 25 July, we experienced a New Moon in Leo.

This particular New Moon forms an intense configuration, receiving tight aspects from powerful planets such as Pluto, Neptune, Uranus, and Saturn.

While New Moons generally symbolise new beginnings, this one feels a little different. With Pluto, Neptune, Saturn, and Mercury in Leo all currently in retrograde, it may not be a time for boldly launching something new. Instead, it invites us to reflect on the past and re-examine ourselves—revealing new possibilities that come from within.

There’s a mysterious sense that something is gently lifting our awareness to a higher level.

You may find yourself feeling genuine gratitude towards the people and environments that have brought you this far. In doing so, you may also rediscover a deep sense of self-acceptance.

And from there, a new vision of the future may begin to emerge.

This is a powerful time for reconnecting with your authentic self. You’re likely to feel both energised and inspired, while also holding a calm, long-term perspective. It’s a fascinating balance of passion and maturity.

Anything you start during the coming month has the potential to lead somewhere truly exciting.

So why not take a moment to write down your wishes under the theme of “living as your true self”? ✨

🌕 Scorpio Full Moon – Stability Through Relea

🌕 Scorpio Full Moon – Stability Through Release

On 12 May 2025, the full moon rises in Scorpio—known as the Wesak Moon in Buddhism, marking the Buddha’s birth, enlightenment, and death.

This moon invites us to balance Taurus’s material abundance with Scorpio’s emotional depth, encouraging true transformation and spiritual growth.

With Pluto retrograde and the Sun conjunct Uranus, sudden shifts may occur in work, relationships, or values. These changes might feel intense but will ultimately lead to long-term stability, supported by Saturn’s grounding influence.

🌟 Sabian symbols highlight “desire and passion” (Moon) and “turning talent into value” (Sun), urging us to let go of what no longer serves us.

Reflect on what began around the Scorpio New Moon six months ago—and embrace the change.

✨ Wishing you a powerful and healing full moon.

Mars Enters Cancer on September 5th

Mars takes approximately two years to orbit the Sun, but it retrogrades once every two years and two months.

During the retrograde period, Mars is physically closer to Earth. As the seasons progress, you'll be able to see Mars shining even more brightly and redder than usual around midnight.

Facing Pluto: Danger! Beware of Conflicts

This year, Mars will retrograde from the early degrees of Leo to the late degrees of Cancer, meaning it will stay in Cancer for over five months—from September 5th to November 4th, and then again from January 7th to April 18th next year. (Normally, Mars stays in a sign for about a month and a half.)

Moreover, Mars, during its long stay from the late degrees of Cancer to the early degrees of Leo, will be facing Pluto, which is positioned from the late degrees of Capricorn to the early degrees of Aquarius.

The opposition between Pluto and Mars is a configuration that hints at conflicts, making it likely that we’ll see various disputes arise in the world from this autumn through next spring.

Given that this period coincides with the U.S. presidential election, there is a strong sense of impending turmoil. There's also the possibility of escalating conflicts in Ukraine and Palestine.

In addition, you might find yourself clashing with people in your close-knit organizations, groups, or within your family. Especially since Cancer, the sign where Mars is positioned, represents family, women, and children, this is a time to be particularly cautious of family disputes.

Cancer also represents the stomach, so be mindful of overeating and the potential for resulting inflammation.

if you consciously harness the energy of Mars, it can become a powerful force for accomplishing something significant.

This time, activities like:

Engaging in community work
Childcare or working with children
Major home renovations, interior decorating, or gardening
Remote work
Weight training at home
Activities to enhance bust size
...could be good ways to channel your efforts. Focusing on doing something productive at home can help prevent family conflicts and frustrations.
