New Moon 8th August 2021

Energy and stubbornness characterize this New Moon in Leo. Excessive energy can go as far as violence (dominant of the element Fire in the theme of this lunation) + stubbornness, because each of us wants to reign in his life, but also on his environment = a fracture more and more marked in relations.
Everyone wants to be the master of their own destiny, but… let us remember that we live in society and that we must inevitably take into account that we are not the only individual who makes decisions. Each one of us is often persuaded that he holds THE truth while he only touches on HIS truth. Man being by nature a social animal, but not all vibrating on the same frequency, what to do? Dilemma... We could then choose to retire alone in our kingdom, without the slightest courtesan, to isolate ourselves, but… many of us have a visceral fear of loneliness and cutting ourselves off from our fellow human beings, is it really the solution?
While many are engaged – often very unconsciously – in destroying the old, others are already beginning – often very consciously – to sow the seeds of renewal. But again, not everyone sows the same thing. Some seeds are fertile, as they are natural, and some are sterile, as they are genetically modified. Those who are accustomed to symbolic decryption will understand what I am saying.
Let us add that during this New Moon, Mars – planet of Fire and action – is in the sign of Virgo. Virgo is Earth, it means service, care for the Other, but also for health and the little things of daily life. The other planetary aspects blocking this action, we must then show great inner strength to resist the bellicose incentives coming from all sides. We have to show a great internal strength not to react to the contradictory information poured out in continuous streams. We must show great inner strength to remain centered and live our truth, without seeking to rally anyone to our cause. This inner force is not violence. This inner force has its roots in Wisdom. A Wisdom that sits in the Heart. The Heart that we are able to contact when we allow external events to pass through us without stopping to give them an importance that they don't really have.
You are right in your life experience and the Other is right in his life experience. There is no competition between you and the Other. Only experience exists and there is no one to convince of anything. Do not seek to teach the Other what he should believe or do (according to your point of view), but simply live your truth so that harmony reigns in you and when the world collapses around you, you are already building the next one. Many of us have already chosen this option, feel free to choose, too.
