July 3 – 9

Express Your Art!

What to expect: Artistic Expression
What to watch out for: Initial confusion
What will it affect? Relationships, money, communication

As the week starts we are dealing with something that needs healing in our money or relationship situation. At first, we may be overwhelmed and scattered. This is because Mercury will square Uranus. Mercury is in emotional Cancer and thoughts and emotions may get twisted into a tangled mess. Fortunately, Mercury will move into Leo on July 5th, and levity in our thoughts return

Also on July 5th, an optimistic and creative energy will also become available. Creativity expressed through the pen will be favoured. Go public with your penned novel, poem or speech as your words are likely to have an unexpected impact. Channel your past pains and the learning from those hurts to stir inspiration, tears or anger in words. Whatever emotion you stir, the potential is there to do so in a way that resonates with something in the collective.

Negotiations

What to expect: Business deals
What to watch out for: Know it all energy
What will it affect? Contracts, communication, ego’s, intuition

On July 7th we have some great energy for negotiating contracts, business and finance. If you are negotiating, its likely to be a fun marketing or learning venture. There are two energy patterns that may impact your decision making though. The first is that mercury is square Pallas. Mercury in Leo and in a tense energy pattern brings out her proud and know-it-all side. This will challenge Pallas’s grounded wisdom and common sense in Taurus. Ego’s may be hurt but just trust your intuition about what is right. Chiron is also square Ceres. This may bring up hurt feelings around communication. Maybe you feel silenced or someone else feels unheard. The best way to get through this negotiation is to embrace humility, listen to your intuition and listen to one another.

Full Moon Capricorn

What to expect: Leadership opportunities
What to watch out for: Power plays
What will it affect? Big Business, governments, leadership, work

The full moon on July 8th is in Capricorn. It’s a powerful one! This will come to a head big time at this full moon. This is because the moon is in Capricorn and conjunct Pluto. A powerful transformation in all Capricorn areas, including government and big business, comes to some form of completion. There is likely to be abuses of power or inappropriate use of power. Vesta will meet up with the north node in Leo, focusing the energy on leadership at work or leadership in areas which we are passionate. The Sabian symbol for this Full Moon is “The Union Jack flies from a new British destroyer” is definitely a symbol that speaks of political power. When governments forge forward, what do they forge forward for? What is the worth of our governments? What is their danger? Those we are grasping for power will grasp harder. Those who are fearless in forging a new type of leadership will have the support of Vesta on the North Node.

June 26 – July 2

Talking it out

What to expect: Challenging Conversations
What to watch out for: Manipulations
What will it affect? Communication, Relationships, partnerships, decisions, spirituality

This week starts with some difficult conversations. Mercury in Cancer fills us with an itching to talk about family, home, feelings, and needs. Topics can range from real estate to family drama to our childhood and its impact on us. It starts on June 26th when something starts to feel not right in our relationships. Mercury is opposite Juno the marriage asteroid, which is currently in Capricorn so we could be having conversations about the structure of our relationships. It helps if we have some prepared notes or questions. Here’s some ideas to get you thinking by Modern Love.

By the 27th as Mercury squares Jupiter in the relationship sign of Libra, opinions are strong and we express ourselves with over confidence. Mercury is also approaching a conjunction with Mars in Cancer, so we are likely to be very decisive. With these two in the water sign of Cancer, we are likely to make emotional rather than logical decisions. There is nothing wrong with emotional decisions. However emotional decisions are usually best made, and others are more receptive, if we come from a place of evolved emotional intelligence. The problem is that trust may be lacking and we may try to push our agenda as Mercury also opposes Pluto. The saving grace is that Mercury will also connect with the spiritual planet of Neptune, helping us to communicate with our intuition and with a higher power. Use the energy to seek guidance to find the right approach.

Feeling Good About It

What to expect: Self-nurturing decisions
What to watch out for: Divergent paths
What will it affect? Relationships, self-care, wounds

The first couple of days of July we become clear about who is on our path and supporting us and who is not. Paths may diverge at this time, but with Ceres making a sextile to the North Node, we achieve a certain amount of self-respect and self-care in stating our needs and moving forward. With or without others!

Relationships Tests

What to expect: Conflict
What to watch out for: Learning the lesson
What will it affect? Relationships, partnerships, commitments

Pluto and Juno have been traveling together since May. When they were in close contact they were helping to transform our relationships and partnerships and helping us to clarify just what partnerships mean to us. Conflict and power struggles may have come up at that time. With these two in the karmic sign of Capricorn, we may have also clarified our karmic connections within our partnership. These two are now separating and as they do, Mars makes an opposition to Pluto and the Sun makes and opposition to Juno. Relationships are still on our radar, and our intentions and our integrity may be tested at this time. Did we really transform our relationships? Did we learn the karmic lessons? If we did, we may have established a new standard for our relationships and partnerships as a result. Our new approach to partnerships (both relationship and business), will likely now be challenged. As we step out to be ourselves we may have some opposition from the old school camp of partnerships. Saturn trine to Vesta will give us a sense of dedication to our goals, passions and new commitments. Perseverance to a new path, even in the face of obstacles and opposition is supported.

June 19 – 25

Powerful New Ideas

What to expect: Innovations and ideas
What to watch out for: Mixed Feelings
What will it affect? Societal change, Communication, Relationships

Chiron, currently in Pisces, has been responsible for bringing up a great deal of wounding in the last little while. That’s because Saturn has been transiting in a square to it. As they have their hard talk throughout the year, other faster-moving planets have come along to say “what about this” poking at the wound but also helping to deepen the understanding of what it’s all about. This week on June 19th, the sun will come along to do just that. Fortunately, on the same day, we have some other energy aspects that will help to ease the pain. Venus will hold hands with Juno. Sometimes commitment can seem at odds or at least take something away from love and romance, but at this time, the two energies work together. We really see who is there for us and their actions even make our hearts sing.

Necessity, sometimes stemming from heartache, failure, and wounds are the mother of invention, so our tears will not go to waste. On June 19th Uranus and Pallas also meet up and the combination brings about innovative ideas and approaches that help us to move in the right direction. These two make a sextile to the North Node, which is currently pointing us in the direction of Leo. Pallas is the female warrior woman who leads with her fair wisdom. Likely the ideas the ideas will come fast and furiously as Mercury also makes a connection to all the planets involved! Her innovative approaches strengthened our courage and bring about inspired leadership. The only problem is that on June 20th Mercury will also square Chiron making us a bit indecisive. It’s scary to let go even if we have all evidence that moving forward is a much better idea.

June 20/21 is also summer solstice, we are putting into action the next phase, the third quarter of the year and this next quarter will carry much of this same energy throughout.

New Moon – Cancer

What to expect: Intention setting opportunity
What to watch out for: Emotional blinders
What will it affect? Family, home, relationships

June 23rd is the New Moon. The New Moon is in Cancer and it’s a great time for setting intentions around family, home and all things nurturing. The New Moon will also be conjunct Mercury, so it’s also a good time to delve into lineage or hereditary issues. Finding out who we are or where we come from can be extremely healing now. Be warned, sometimes when Mercury is so close to the luminaries, it can be difficult to see the woods for the trees. We may become very emotional at this New Moon. Conflicts and imbalances in relationships are the triggers. The good news is that the conflict can also generate some relationship alchemy and we can transform parts of our relationships into something better.

Giving

What to expect: Attention seeking behaviour
What to watch out for: Feeling unheard
What will it affect? Strong Feelings, Fairness, Giving, Philanthropy

June 24th we move into to some highly optimistic energy, but it’s also a day when we can be hasty and risky. Saturn is also opposite Ceres, so it’s important to listen. If we are the ones feeling unheard, try not to take it personally. It’s a day when we might do things just to get attention. To get the attention we seek and our emotional needs met, sometimes it’s better to be in a place of giving rather than taking or expecting. Mars is trine Neptune so it’s a great time for philanthropic or charity work. You will be amazed by how much it satisfies and fills you up.
