New Moon in Leo

The New Moon is squaring Huya and Deucalion, transneptunian minor planets named for gods or mythical figures associated with water. You can read more about them from Water Worlds. Huya and Deucalion have been travelling together already for several years, but Riyal gives these as the times of the actual conjunctions:
