Lunations and Long-term Aspects The New Moon this month is also a Solar Eclipse which occurs in fellow Water Sign, Cancer on July 11. This is the solar counterpart to the Lunar Eclipse that occurred last month and is part of the same 12 South Saros Series family. The theme of this series is that something that has been bothering you for quite some time will first appear to get worse and then it will be resolved. Since eclipses can take effect before they actually happened, this may have already occurred. If not, hang in there, as it will in the days or weeks to come. Cancer is your 9th House of higher learning, beliefs and expectations, legal matters, relocation, other cultures, religion, politics and philosophy of life. This is a very social house where you interact with society and learn things that you incorporate into your philosophy of life and understanding of how you fit into the world. This lunation/eclipse has a T-square that involves Pluto, your Sign Ruler, at the apex with the corners occupied by Saturn in Virgo and a conjunction between Jupiter and Uranus in Aries at the other. Virgo is your 11th House of friends, organizations, groups, and goals and Saturn in that locale will be working with you to restructure something in this part of your life. Saturn was retrograde for several months the beginning of the year and went direct the end of May. While he retraces the path he followed while retrograde he'll be helping you pull together those things he was prompting you about at the subconscious level. In fact, Saturn, Mars and Venus are all in that 11th house neighborhood, so look for numerous things to be occurring in that part of your life. Jupiter and Uranus are in your 6th House of work, service, health and pets. They'll be conjunct for quite some time this year with their combined energy having the potential to resemble Zeus' thunderbolts. In some cases this combination can bring a windfall or other sudden stroke of luck, but their function in a T-square is not likely to be so fortunate. Rather it could bring unexpected events of a significant nature that result in a major change to your work, service activities or health. A lot of the activity is going to be on the mental plane with Pluto in Capricorn, your 3rd House of thoughts, ideas, neighbors and siblings. Pluto is busy remodeling in this part of your life, forcing you to look at the good, the bad and the ugly in this realm and telling you in no uncertain terms to fix it accordingly. So, in a nutshell, look for something unexpected relative to your work to stir up the necessity for restructuring something with regard to your goals, friends or organizational activities and ultimately relate back to your thoughts, neighbors and siblings. For example, his quincunx to Mercury in Leo, implies a course change, adjustment of Catch-22 related to information or news that affects your career, public image, status or reputation. Pluto is also trining Venus in Virgo, which should bring someone from your past your way to provide something beneficial. Venus in this sign will be very beneficial for presenting yourself in a favorable light to others and could also bring financial benefits or new connections your way. Also on the positive side, the Sun/Moon combo is sextile your ancient Sign Ruler, Mars, also in your 11th House of friends, organizations and goals, and pointing you toward an opportunity of some kind, which could also indicate some lucrative networking. Jupiter and Uranus are in a rather serious mode in the T-square role, but they should also bring you some unexpected news with regard to your career, status or reputation which will be positive. This could even be a glowing recommendation from someone you work with or the success of a project that is far more successful than you anticipated. This pair is also quincunx Venus, implying adjustments within your organizational activities, friendships, or goals. Neptune in your 4th House of home environment is quincunx Saturn, suggesting some course changes as a result of dissolving some existing boundaries that may no longer be serving you. This is when you look to see if any individuals or groups are holding you back or if it's simply time to reevaluate your goals. Also make sure that no one in your household is feeding you information that might be deceptive or maintaining an illusion you'd do well to ditch. This could specifically relate to your goals or networking, specifically with women, or perhaps with regard to your financial goals. The Full Moon on July 25 is in Aquarius, your 4th House of home environment. This implies an ending, culmination or shift to a new phase with something in this part of your life. The T-square described above is still in effect as is the quincunx between Neptune and Saturn, which is helping dissolve old boundaries and limitations. By now Saturn has moved into Libra but is still within the shadow period of his retrograde activity during the first few months of the year. Libra is your 12th House of dreams, imagination, seclusion, confinement, institutions, spiritual development, hidden enemies and self-undoing. Thus if there's anything in this part of your life that needs to extra discipline or a solid foundation, Saturn will be working that issue with you, Uranus and Jupiter are as busy as before, not only in the long-term T-Square but also bringing something positive to light with regard to your status, career or reputation. Also watch for an opportunity that derives from home in some way. There are two Triangles of Potential in this lunation, one mediating the lunation itself. This involves Uranus and Jupiter at the apex, implying sudden change in your house of work or health will be the pivot point for resolving home/career issues in a favorable way. The other ToP involves the Moon at the apex, implying your feelings and emotions about your home environment will be the key to understanding a situation that involves work or service and some increased discipline with regard to your dreams or imagination. This could also involve anything you may do that is self-defeating, which you need to identify and rectify unless you want it to rear its ugly head again and again. Daily and Short-Term Aspects July 1: Watch for opportunities today that relate to ideas that involve a group, friends, or your goals as well as a matter related to your 9th House such as higher education, legal matters, academia or your beliefs and expectations. July 5: Uranus goes retrograde until December 5. This will make his energy even more erratic in your 6th House of work where the unexpected is likely to become the norm over the next few months. July 8: Dreams relative to something you've been striving for with regard to your home environment are possible. Examine your beliefs, determine what you need to do in order to attain them, and then set your plan in motion. News related to a legal matter or relocation that will cause a few things to go in a new direction is also possible. July 9: Mercury goes into Leo today which will facilitate communications with regard to your career, reputation, status or public image. Something unexpected or surprising in this regard is likely to arrive today, heralding this new influence. July 10: Venus goes into Virgo today, your 11th House of goals, friends and organizations, which should bring her blessings to this part of your life. Some unexpected course changes are likely as something comes to light with regard to your beliefs or other 9th House issue which motivates you to take action. July 11: New Moon/Solar Eclipse as described above. July 13: Your networking may payoff in a surprising manner today. It's also a favorable time to give your goals, friends and group activities some deep thought, particularly with regard to past associations. July 20: A course change relative to something that comes to light will necessitate some adjustments at home. July 21: Saturn moves into Libra, your 12th House of dreams, enlightenment, transcendence, hidden enemies, spirituality and self-undoing today. This can bring a time which results in some serious progress in this part of your life, particularly if you've been neglecting it in any way. July 22: The Sun goes into Leo, bringing light and emphasis to your 10th House of career, status, reputation and public image. This will also provide some opportunities for defining what your dreams are for this part of your life or how to assure the path you're on will be what's best for your spiritual development. July 23: Jupiter goes retrograde today, which usually stirs up ethical issues which are most likely to relate to your 6th House of work and health. Pleasant surprises related to work are likely. July 24: Old baggage of a mental nature is likely to surface related to your work or service activities. July 25: Full Moon today in Aquarius as described above. July 26: This should be a significant day as five separate astrological aspects will be exact at sometime today. Beware of deception as it applies to home and career. Make sure you are seeing things clearly. If you still don't know what your life's work is or where you belong careerwise, ponder it today and be prepared to make some course changes. These are likely to be of a positive and expansive nature that are just waiting for you to take action upon. Expect the unexpected today as far as personal insights that will help direct your future. July 27: Mercury enters Virgo today, facilitating communications with regard to your goals, friends, networking and group activities. Unexpected news regarding work is likely. July 30: Mars enters Libra, your 12th House of spirituality, transcendence, hidden enemies, self-undoing and institutions. Watch your back during this transit and also examine your actions for any self-defeating behaviors. The roots of these could go way back to unresolved issues from your distant past. Major adjustments based on news from a friend are possible. Expect the unexpected today as well. July 31: If there's anyone out to get you they may tip their hand today. If you have anything out there that might bite you such as unpaid parking or traffic tickets, you may have to pay the piper. Use this energy to take positive action toward more discipline with regard to your spirituality. Set some goals in this area, including the realization of your fondest dreams. |
