Sunday, July 31^st, the Moon continues her path through practically minded Virgo all day!

Mercury opposes Saturn, 1:05 AM: Communications, the flow, and traffic are all slower with this planetary aspect. We are feeling blocks and we may feel that people are ignoring us! First thing is to slow down. Review your situation and determine what action, if any, is really needed. This aspect is very good for editing, cleaning and organizing, connecting with friends who can be supportive, and exploring ways to make your life run easier. This can feel like “Mercury Retrograde”! This aspect has been in play for the last 8 days and will continue for the next 8 days. This is a great time to organize, improve your work schedule, eat healthier, and focus on the things that need to be done. We may feel judged by others for what we say. Be sure, you accept them as a judge before you listen to what they have to say. It’s also easy to have a negative perspective and feel sorry for yourself! Focus on what you can do instead of what you can’t!

Sun trine Jupiter, ,5:36 PM: This optimistic planetary alignment has been active for the last 7 days and will continue to be active for the next 7 days. This aspect should help counter some of the depressing and self-critical energy we get from the Mercury/Saturn alignment. This should help with vacation planning, expanding your education, having a great presence on Social Media, and helps you to have more fun. We do have a larger perspective on what’s going on in our world. This aspect also helps guide some of us who are interested in justice and equality. People are more willing to share their views and philosophies! Enjoy this positive aspect!

Moon sextiles Venus, 10:19 PM: We are certainly ready to relax this evening with someone special or with your good friends. We are looking to satisfy our pleasures with this aspect. Relationships function more easily!

All times are central.

Saturday, July 30^th, the Moon begins the day void-of-course in Leo. Luna remains void until 1:11 PM when she enters Virgo and is no longer void-of-course. The afternoon is better for planned activities. The morning is better for introspection.

There are no lunar or planetary aspects for today. The early morning and through 9:00 AM may feel more unsettled. There are some strong aspects for tomorrow, and they should keep us on track today.

When the Moon enters Virgo, we will be more focused and better able to respond to our emotional needs. A good day to eat healthy and get things organized.

All times are central.

Friday, July 30^th, the Moon travels through Leo, all day! Luna does go void at 11:29 PM and remains void until Saturday at 1:11 PM in the afternoon.

Moon square Mars, 10:38 AM: We are already hot under the collar as the morning begins. We are impatient and not in the mood to hear other’s excuses. Detachment can help and counting to 100 and stepping away. Some thing you can control and some things you can’t.

Moon square Uranus, 2:48 PM: Another aspect that requires us to be flexible. Plans may change and you need to change with them and have your exit strategy handy. We are disgusted with the lack of humanity around us. Connect with your friends and you will feel better!

Moon conjunct Mercury, 6:49 PM: We are chatty this evening and we will need something to keep us entertained! A great evening for dinner and a movie, chatting with friends online, and working on your podcast.

Moon opposes Saturn, 11:29 PM: This aspect is always best to sleep through as it helps with over thinking and needless worry. Do some yoga, meditation, Tai Chi, or have a glass of wine and chill!

Hi, I’ve been having really bad internet connections which has been delaying my post. I’m sorry for the delays.

All times are central.

Thursday, July 28^th, the Moon starts the day void in Cancer. The Moon enters Leo at 1:36 AM and is no longer void-of-course.

Moon conjunct Sun, 12:55 PM: This is our New Moon in Leo! We are open to accepting love and appreciation into our lives. We are connecting with our inner child and what give us fun and pleasure in this lifetime. This new Moon affects the fixed signs, Taurus, Leo, Aquarius, and Scorpio the strongest. We may be more internal as the day begins but after the New Moon, we are better able at expressing our feelings. We are all extra sensitive today and want to be treated as special and important! Share your love and make someone’s day!

Jupiter goes stationary retrograde, 3:37: Our planet of hope, justice, equality, fairness, religiosity, and prejudice is beginning its yearly retrograde cycle. Jupiter is currently in Aries and will retrograde back into Pisces at the end of October. We will questions our long-term choices. We may also do some back tracking and want to change our original plans. This is actually a good time to deal with legal issues that have been dogging you. We will want to deal with the facts and step away from some of the drama. We are all looking for ways for us to move forward. This process has been in play for the last 3 weeks and will continue to be strong for the next 3 weeks. Give yourself extra time to work on problems to arrive at the best solutions. And finally, find others who support your views and team up with them for added strength and impact.   

Mercury square Uranus, 4:16 PM: Problems with communications, internet connectivity, traffic delays, sudden change in plans, and lack of patience is all part of this planetary alignment. Although we have been feeling this aspect since Tuesday when this energy got extra strong. This aspect has been in play for the last 10 days and will continue for the next 6 days. Flexibility is the key here! If you are overly committed, you may have a hard time letting go of your end goal. We can be more erratic, less willing to explain details, and we may need some real space. The fixed signs, Taurus, Leo, Aquarius, and Scorpio are the most impacted. Pay attention to your spending and your bank account, credit cards, and investments. If you experience frustration….step back…count to a hundred…and then try it again. We can be accident prone, not able to focus as well, and just want to be left alone! Make sure you have your exit strategy handy!

Moon trines Jupiter, 7:03 PM: This aspect should help to make the end of our day more optimistic and open to new ideas. This is a good aspect for dinning with friends, planning your vacation, or walking on the beach. We need to see open spaces!

All times are central.

Wednesday, July 27^th, the Moon continue her watery journey through Cancer. Luna does go void-of-course at 7:54 PM and remains void until Thursday at 1:36 AM when she enters Leo and is no longer void-of-course.

Moon sextiles Uranus, 2:36 AM: This aspect is very good for daytime activity but may keep our brains more active than usual for sleeping. We are more creative and inventive with this aspect.

Moon trine Neptune, 3:58 PM: We are plugged into our intuition this afternoon. This is also a good creative time, as well as good for meditation, yoga, or just listening to soothing music. We may need more time to ourselves.

Moon opposes Pluto, 7:54 PM: This is always a great aspect for therapy, cleaning out the past in our garages or kitchens, and being able to look deeply into our own soul. Our emotions are intense, and we may need someone to mirror those feelings back to us. We are in a somber mood.

The Moon in Cancer at 7:54 PM is now void-of-course until Thursday when Luna enters Leo at 1:36 AM and the Moon is no longer void-of-course.

All times are central.

Tuesday, July 26^th, the Moon continues through Cancer, our sign of emotional expression and internal security, all day.

Moon squares Jupiter, 6:35 AM: A great morning to be up early. We have plenty of energy but may have a hard time getting our agenda set. We feel optimistic about the outcomes.

Moon conjunct Venus, 9:54 AM: This is a great time for negotiations, relationship building, diplomacy, and to appeal to the emotional core. And this is a great time for a mid-morning snack. We are feeling generous this morning.

Mercury squares Mars, 2:13 PM: Our day is dominated by this planetary aspect that pushes us to act more quickly than we may be comfortable with. We may be more argumentative and take things ways too personally. This can also be a time where traffic and other drivers get way too angry too quickly! This aspect has been in play for the last 6 days and will continue for the next 6 days. Of course, the best advice for this aspect is to slow down and realize you are not in a competition with yourself! On the plus side, we respond much more quickly, enjoy playing word games, and exploring new avenues of interest so we aren’t bored. It’s easy to act before you have a clear plan, respond before you have thought your answer through, and to act defensively. Exercise helps. Meditation helps. Conflicts can arise. It’s what you do in response that really counts.

Moon sextiles Mars, 6:57 PM: Our energy levels continue to be strong through the evening. It’s best to have a project or something you can focus your energy on. A great time for sports and gaming. We will need some entertainment this evening.

All times are central.

Monday, July 25^th, the Moon starts the day in Gemini. Luna goes void-of-course at 3:14 AM and she remains void until 12:54 PM when the Moon enters Cancer and is no longer void-of-course.

Venus squares Jupiter, 1:13 AM: Our wants and desires are very strong with this planetary aspect. This aspect makes it easy to spend money, eat the things that are fattening, and helps us to laze around on the couch. This aspect has been affecting us for the last 6 days and will continue for the next 6 days. This is also a great time to get away from our routines and expectations. On a higher level, we are more concerned about truth and justice. We questions the motivations and proper behavior of people in our justice system. Focus on what you like, and you can get a lot done with this aspect. However, it’s not the best for working on hard task or things that are overly complicated. Keep your ideas reasonable, give yourself extra time for whatever you are doing, and enjoy your favorite things!

Moon squares Neptune 3:14 AM: A great aspect for sleeping and having interesting dreams.

The Moon in Gemini at 3:14 AM is now void-of-course until 12:54 PM when Luna enters Cancer and is no longer void-of-course.

All times are central.

Saturday, July 23^rd, the Moon begins the day void-of-course in Taurus but quickly enters Gemini at 12:11 AM and is no longer void-of-course.

Moon sextiles Sun, 12:58 AM: This aspect should help us get to sleep a lot easier and cut down on the internal dialogue. If you are awake, this is a good time to write or chat with your friends.  

Mercury trines Jupiter, 12:52 PM: This planetary aspect should help our communications, improve our cognitive skills, help us create a better balance between work and fun, and make better use of social media.

This is also an excellent aspect for research, exploring natural remedies, and adapting your routines to fit the current time we live. This aspect should make the weekend a lot more fun!
