Good Morning,
We have moved into the Dark Moon time; the period of several days before a New Moon when the Moon’s light is not shining or is obscured. From thoughtco.com. “As the Moon wanes toward those final days of darkness, there’s often a turn inward. In those contemplative moments, the inner reality is presented through dreams and waking visions. It’s fertile ground for the new Moon intentions to be conjured.” This is an especially significant Dark Moon time as we are heading into the first of three eclipses beginning tomorrow, Thursday, July 12th thru August 11th, 2018. The effects of eclipses can be felt up to 6 months after the occurrence and often bring sweeping changes in our lives; especially if they touch a personal planet in our chart and in the area of life (house) in which they fall. At this time we may begin to be feeling into what part of our lives the first eclipse, at 20″41′ Cancer, may effect. Giving ourselves room to connect with our inner self is helpful. More on the eclipse in my post tomorrow.
The Moon is Void of Course in Gemini until 11:59am (MST) bringing more opportunity for self reflection. Wait until after the Moon moves into Cancer to initiate anything new.
When the Moon moves into Cancer it sextiles Venus in Virgo until 3:09pm (MST). This is an opportune time to express ourselves in a loving and nurturing way. The Moon is comfortable in Cancer while Venus in Virgo expresses love through being helpful and discriminating. In general, pleasant and good feelings abound!
The Moon sextiles Uranus in Taurus until 3:36pm (MST). Ride this brief wave of excitement and innovative energy.
The Moon in Cancer opposes Saturn in Capricorn until 7:38pm (MST). We can feel very strongly connected to our emotions while we face the practical, sober energies of the material world. We may notice our or others inability to emote at this time. It can be helpful for reigning in the overly sensitive emotions of Cancer Moon or soften the stoic Saturn in Capricorn contractive energy. Staying focused on what needs to get done is a good way to channel this energy.
The Moon trines Jupiter in Scorpio for the remainder of the night. Jupiter wants to expand our perspective while the Moon helps us feel our intuition and guiding inner voice. This Water trine can be helpful in connecting with our deeper feelings and identifying where we may need to transform. In general, we will be able to respond the world with optimism!
Venus in Virgo trines Uranus in Taurus at 9:26pm (MST). This Earth trine helps bring new insight and awareness into our relationships, our ability to express ourselves creatively, and what we value (including our self worth, possessions and how we relate to money). Venus and Uranus desire new ways of seeking pleasure or doing relationships, yet Virgo and Taurus are reserved and want to uphold the status quo. Stay open to new ideas in these areas of life; specifically new ways that are driven by discrimination, conservation, security and innovation. Find the balance between the new and relying on what works from experience.
Make it a great day!
