August 9-15, 2021
Wow! What a powerful New Moon we had last night, with the Leo vibes combined with the Lion’s Gate portal, I hope you set some powerful intentions to see more abundance come your way!
If you haven’t yet had a chance to do your New Moon intention setting, then there is still time today while the Moon is still new for another 24 hours.
Was my new style of sharing the lunar energy and mood with you last week by dropping directly into your inbox with this report helpful? I’m open to any and all feedback!
I’m excited about the week ahead, with the Waxing Moon giving us an energy boost, and the lockdown restrictions for Queensland have been lifted, which I’m also relieved about. If you are still having to stay home, then I send you so much love.
Let’s get started with this week’s report!
Lunar Energy and Mood Report for the Week Commencing August 9, 2021
Be sure to set your New Moon intentions on Monday if you haven’t yet done so, while you can still harness the Leo New Moon vibes. It’s also worth noting that the planet Saturn will be affecting us this week. It is currently in retrograde in the sign of visionary Aquarius. Saturn is all about structures, and while in retrograde this could mean we feel the need to RE-structure things in our life. Be mindful this week of making any rash decisions, have clear boundaries in place and watch limiting beliefs creeping in.
Moon Phase Energy
This week the Moon is in its Waxing Crescent. When the Moon is waxing, it appears to be getting bigger- the energy that accompanies this is expansive and there will be an increase in your energy. Think of this phase as the time you plant the seeds of your intentions. Whatever you set out to manifest on the New Moon, this week is the time to make action steps to bring those things into your life. Start taking inspired action, watering those seeds of inspiration and creativity. You might find it useful to refine your plans so you can confidently move forward with them between now and the First Quarter Moon phase.
What to do this week:
🌙 Feel into your New Moon intentions so you are comfortable with how they will fit into your life
🌙 Map out your action steps for bringing your intentions into your life
🌙 Give yourself some mental space to really notice how you are feeling and what you are thinking. This could be through doing a walking meditation or going into nature and just being.
Theme this week: Initiate
Affirmation: I feel into my intentions with strength and confidence
Reflection questions:
What are the first steps needed to bring my intentions to fruition? What can I do to trust my intuition more? What can I let go of to make space for more abundance?
Moon Sign Moods
Monday August 9th
The New Moon is still in playful and generous Leo until 10:22pm. When the Moon is in creative and expressive Leo, it’s a great time to have fun, get social and express your authentic self with your creativity.
Lunar Self-Care
🌙 Dance like nobody is watching
🌙 Do things that tap into your creativity, be it painting, making art, crafting, photography, drawing, sewing, writing, cooking….whatever you enjoy doing
🌙 Connect with friends and have some deep, heart-centred conversations
🌙 Wear clothes that make you feel good and which are true to your own style so you can boldly step out with confidence

Tuesday August 10th- Wednesday August 11th
The Waxing Crescent Moon will be in organised and detailed Virgo. This mood will have you wanting to be purposeful with your time, to de-clutter and get organised and be quite analytical (which could mean being stuck in your head and not in your heart).

🌙 Do a de-clutter of your physical and digital space
🌙 Virgo likes to be of service- what can you do to help other people?
🌙 Do any work that requires your attention to detail
🌙 Be mindful that self-criticism or perfectionism doesn’t creep in
Journaling question:
What things bring me a sense of purpose which are for my own satisfaction and enjoyment and how can I do more of this?
Essential oil:
Cypress: this oil is useful if you find that you are being a perfectionist or trying to control things too much- it supports motion and flow and to trust the way life unfolds. Diffuse or inhale in an aroma tent or roll on the bottom of the feet.

Do menial tasks, focus on nourishing self-care and avoid making big decisions
Thursday August 12th – Friday August 13th
The Waxing Crescent Moon will be in balance and harmony loving Libra, a mood which will have you enjoying the beauty and aesthetics around you as well as focusing on partnerships.
Lunar Self Care:
🌙 This is a good time to re-decorate your home or to re-arrange your altar/sacred space and to buy yourself flowers to arrange around your home/workspace
🌙 Do an at-home facial or go to the space to beautify yourself
🌙 Go on a romantic date with your partner or have a long lunch with business partners to foster these relationships
🌙 Go to a museum or art gallery to enjoy the artworks
🌙 Do legs up the wall to relax and support your lower back which is the part of the body ruled by Libra
Journaling question:
What can I have more/less of in my life right now to have peace and balance?
Essential oil:
Hinoki: Can help support order, harmony and balance in your life. Inhale or apply to the temples, back of the neck and spine. It’s also known to be soothing for the skin, so add some drops into your face cream.

Do menial tasks, focus on nourishing self-care and avoid making big decisions
Saturday August 14th – Monday August 16th
The Waxing Crescent Moon will be in deep, mysterious and intense Scorpio. This Moon could have you feeling the need to transform some aspect of your life and to do some inner explorations of why and how you feel the way you do.
Lunar self-care:
🌙 Sensuality and sexuality will feel strong at this time, so it can be a good time to get intimate ;-)
🌙 Do some journaling to work through any big emotions that arise
🌙 There is an intensity and depth that comes with Scorpio Moons, making it a god time to tap into your passions and let your shadows come to the surface
🌙 Do a tarot card reading and tune into your intuition
Journal reflection:
What is the biggest shadow lurking in my subconscious that I need to work through and release?
Essential oil:
Passion: This blend can help you to rediscover your passion and purpose and break free from the restrictions you are placing on yourself so you can have more fun and less seriousness. Diffuse or apply over the stomach, wrists and behind the ears.
