Here are some questions to ask yourself.

We also have anew moon in Leo, which arrives on Aug. 16 at 5:38 a.m. New moons are all about new beginnings, and the Aug. 16 occurrence will be no different.

But a kickstart to your next chapter isnt all that lies ahead.

Here’s how the Aug. 16 new moon will affect each sign.

Though the consequences of la luna might sound intimidating, theres nothing to worry about.

In fact, you might even be able to channel them into your work or creative pursuits.

You could also be reevaluating your pricing around creative work.

Where are your values out of alignment with your loved ones?

And dont worry, after this new moon, the pressure will lift.

Which values are you pushing down?

Which beliefs arent serving you?

If there are some repressed remnants of heartbreak, this new moon might be bringing it to the forefront.

Its all cleaning up and prepping you for your season when the load should feel lighter.

What has been left unaddressed?

What is unearthing itself?

Similar to Virgo, old wounds could be showing up, or you could be rekindling some long-lost friendships.

These relationships might take courage and initiative to heal, says Gerdes.

The Venus retrograde has been a time of reflecting on your career, Gerdes explains.

Your long-term goals could be shifting as this transit has raised questions like, What is it all for?

You are reassessing your value and long-term investments.

This might lead you down a new path.

From your unique experiences, what have you witnessed and what do you desire to build?

Are you wanting to step into leadership?

Ask yourself these questions to make the most of the moon.

The real question is: are you happy?

Take some time to step back and assess your romantic endeavors.

Its a prime time to reevaluate money matters and ensure you and your partner are on the same page.

Chat about love languages.

In which relationships could you be more vulnerable?

If you do this, the bonds will only become stronger.

Neptune in your sign wants boundlessness, but Saturn has given you guidelines and a tightrope to walk.

Right now, dont look for comfort externally.

Dont forfeit your personal power for the sake of victimhood.

Dig deeper within yourself.
