Jo Avalon’s New Moon Guidance – 13 Aug 2026

Hello from Lake Macquarie💙,

Today, I pulled three cards from the Bonestone and Earthflesh Tarot to share with you. Take a moment to notice which one feels like the message you need right now – left, middle or right – and then scroll down to receive your guidance for this moon phase.

Thursday 13 August is a New Moon in Leo.  Leo energy is bold, vibrant, and charismatic, radiating confidence, creativity, and a natural leadership presence. New Moon energy focuses on positivity, and that something new and exciting is developing or that you are taking the next step towards your wildest dream. It’s time to lay down your intentions with confidence.

You could ask yourself: What do I really want or need? Where am I stuck, in relation to where I really want to go? What, or who do I want to bring forward in my life right now?

Now, here are your enchanting messages.

Left Card: Three of Cups – Cauldron Sisters, sisterhood, friendship, tribe, fulfilment, festivity, openness, support groups, small community gatherings

The energy here suggests that you’ve found your tribe or community of like-hearted people, and it’s time to let your hair down and celebrate a little. Something you’re working on is expanding, with new ideas being contributed by people around you. Perhaps you’re becoming involved in a gathering of some kind that will be engaging and spiritually meaningful.

Middle Card: Three of Pentacles – Sacred Stone, productivity, talent, work, achievement, establishment, teamwork, growth, stability, creativity, joy, artistic creation

The energy here suggests that you’re establishing your identity created by your own hand. Your focus on developing your skills creates a momentum that supports your growth, and the work necessary to reap the rewards you desire.

Right Card: The Emperor – authority, government, structure, social order, power, leadership, law, control, organisation

The energy here is one of establishing structure and order in your life. Confidence and authority are required to see through on an important cause. Your leadership skills are being called upon to ensure your projects are completed successfully. Turn to an authority figure or ancient wisdom for some clarity. Your strength, skill, and power are called upon to balance the increase in responsibilities.

All Three Cards:

The energy of all three cards speaks of belonging, self‑definition, and steady leadership. You’re surrounded by like‑hearted people who uplift your ideas, and something you’ve been working on is beginning to expand through shared inspiration. At the same time, you’re shaping an identity that’s truly your own – built through skill, practice, and the quiet momentum that comes from showing up for yourself.

There’s also a call to establish structure and order so your growth has somewhere solid to land. Confidence, clarity, and gentle authority will help you carry your projects through to completion. Lean on trusted wisdom, whether from an elder, a mentor, or an ancient source, as you navigate increasing responsibilities. Your strength and grounded leadership are the anchors that allow celebration, creativity, and progress to unfold together.
