Monday, July 12th ~ We have the moon in Leo all day, providing a boost of creativity and a need to share and spread joy to others. After a couple early transits, the moon moves void of course at 8:30am EST for quite a lengthy period, until early tomorrow morning. This can leave us feeling somewhat distracted or unable to lock in and focus on the task at hand. Restless feelings leave us wanting to either roam or turn off completely. It's a good afternoon and evening for quiet, joyful tasks that help restore the energy. Mercury and Jupiter meet in trine this afternoon at 3:43pm EST, which expands communication. The impact of this transit coupled with the Leo moon allows us to say what's on our mind in a pleasant, present manner. As Mercury is currently in watery Cancer, the emotions and heart open up with more ease tonight under the blossoming power of Jupiter.
Tuesday, July 13th ~ The 20 hour void of course moon comes to an end at 4:31am EST, as the moon moves from Leo into Virgo. Our point of focus zones in like a laser beam. While yesterday had a more scattered energy, today lends itself well to diving into a single project or task and seeing it through to completion before moving on to the next. Venus and Mars are conjunct in Leo today at 9:32am EST. The dichotomy of watery, receptive Venus and fiery, action-oriented Mars functioning as one unit allows us to walk the line of balance today. Yin and yang are perfectly in harmony. You may seek to find similar order around you. Cleaning, organizing, or tying up loose ends allow you to breathe into this feeling.
Wednesday, July 14th ~ We have the moon in Virgo all day, trining Uranus this morning at 6:24am EST. We may delight in surprises today; the Virgo moon loves to solve problems and so there will be some excitement that comes with figuring out how to improvise and work with unexpected events. Asteroids Vesta and Pallas are in square, which can create some friction between creativity and the physical space of your home. Maybe you need to focus on chores or work that is more linear, and more exciting tasks are put on the back burner. Or maybe you're brimming with inspiration, but someone in your home space interrupts you. Rather than clinging to how things should be, use the energy of the Virgo moon to solve problems in real time. Improvisation is a Virgoan gift - the higher expression of Virgo. Believe in your ability to handle whatever arises.
Thursday, July 15th ~ The Virgo moon moves void of course at 2:47am, where it will be until it enters Libra at 10:32am EST. Imagination rules over the day. The Sun and Neptune are in trine at 4:48am EST, which expands our vision of what is possible into the far reaches of fantasy. The trine ensures that whatever we lean into is something that could potentially manifest if we are able and willing to believe and put in the work. The Libra moon encourages collaboration and working with likeminded people to achieve our goals. Chiron moves retrograde at 12:41pm EST at 12 degrees Aries. The planetoid of healing will be retrograde through December 19th, retracing its starry steps back to 8 degrees Aries. If you have any planets located at 8-12 degrees of a cardinal sign (Aries / Cancer / Libra / Capricorn), you will find this Chiron Rx period to be especially potent. This is a time for noticing areas of the body or psyche that still need healing. Over the next five months your attention may be drawn to blocks and stuck energy in the body or mind that is "frozen" in time. When a traumatic event occurs, part of our mind freezes in that place. We may carry the memory of it in an injury in our body, or in our psyche. Chiron's retrograde period is a good time to work to thaw these frozen areas. We do this by bringing our conscious attention to them and letting ourselves express the emotions associated with them. Those with the cardinal placements I mentioned earlier will especially benefit from this type of work. Finally, asteroid Psyche enters Leo today. Psyche rules over the subconscious mind and mental processes. In Leo, we enjoy thinking creatively. You may notice you learn better and retain information easier when there is a playful component (i.e. learning through games or entertainment).
Friday, July 16th ~ The moon is in Libra all day. Libra moons are social and interested in finding external places to balance their energy. We seek others who we can "bounce" our energy off and use it to harmonize or find center. The moon is quite active this morning, forming a trine to the North Node at 3:42am EST, trine to Saturn at 6:32am and opposition to Chiron at 9:12am. The people you feel drawn to today are likely tied into your higher karmic purpose at this time. Keep in mind this is not necessarily the people you are interacting with physically today. Who is on your mind? Whose energy are you searching for? Pluto moves into a trine with asteroid Ceres, which will hold through the weekend. Ceres rules over planet Earth and its flora and fauna. This is a good transit for environmental activism and for working for transformation and change for the planet and its species.
Saturday, July 17th ~ The Libra moon reaches its First Quarter at 6:10am EST. In this phase, we gear up for something on the horizon. We may feel an influx of energy and excitement, or even possible impatience. The moon moves void of course from 7:04am until 2:39pm EST when it enters Scorpio. The morning and early afternoon leave us with a lot of physical momentum, though it's possible the void period leaves us unsure where to put all this excess energy. Consider exercise and movement to shake it off. The Sun moves opposite Pluto at 6:46pm. Coupled with the intensity of the Scorpio moon, the evening is full of exploration of the shadows. All that is hidden seems to sparkle like an alluring treasure. You may notice your intuition is increased, and you feel hungry to uncover a secret of the universe.
Sunday, July 18th ~ We have the moon in Scorpio all day long, digging deep into the velvet darkness. It's a more solitary sort of day, perfect for exploring your own mind, reading a book, or closing your eyes and letting a piece of music envelop you. If you do interact with others, surface conversations will feel virtually unbearable. The moon trines Mercury today at 9:13am EST, which encourages us to speak honestly and openly about emotional truths and deep topics rather than small talk. Pluto and Ceres continue their trine, which allows us to pick up on the energy fields of plants and animals with more ease. We may desire to speak up on their behalfs.
