Spiritual Growth & Physical Wellbeing

 

This week’s headline items: Chiron in Aries is still exalted/stationing all week; Venus moves from Leo into Virgo on Wednesday evening; the Sun moves from Cancer into Leo on Thursday late morning. Late Friday evening, the Full Moon in Aquarius becomes exact.

There will be four Moon VoC phases this week: Monday early afternoon (for a little over 4.5 hours); Wednesday evening (for a brief 10 mins); Friday early afternoon (for almost 8 hours); and Sunday evening (for a little over 4 hours).

 

Before we get to this week’s forecast, I’d like to mention two things:

If you missed last week’s email about Episode Three of my new Interview SeriesHow to Deal with Uncertainty & Change“, feel free to watch it here.

As we move through this time of heightened change and unpredictability, I will be interviewing people I love and respect, chatting about their daily routines and practices that have provided them the greatest level of support over these past 15 months (or longer).

In this episode we focus on being your own authority when it comes to your body, and your fitness. Would you like to know how to support yourself in the best way possible on a physical, emotional, and mental level, now and into the future?

Click here to watch this intimate chat with the endearing Yvette Lenhart, a Pilates Instructor & Efficient Full-Body Workout Trainer.

To ask a question in advance; please email me by July 22nd,… and if I don’t have it yet, send me a copy of your Birth Chart (If you have done a Reading or Coaching-Healing session with me in the past, or if you have already emailed me a copy of your chart, I will have it. If none of this applies to you, send me a pdf of your birth chart).

 

Now, this week’s Forecast…

 

Monday, July 19th:

Monday morning, the Moon remains passionate, all-or-nothing Scorpio. It will journey there until 5:08pm EDT. We feel things deeply and have “X-Ray Vision” and “Bullshit-Smelling Abilities” 😉

Emotional authenticity is extremely important to us at this time; anything less than 100% emotional honesty could be perceived as flat-out dishonest. Once we feel safe trusting someone, we want to merge with them, preferably forever… as long as our trust is never betrayed.

The Moon in Scorpio urges us to uncover our own power. This occurs by a process of subtraction — it urges us to let go of whatever disempowers us. It’s therefore an excellent time to look at “old” fears, limiting habits or emotional attachments, especially those stemming from past traumas.

Moon in Scorpio tends to run right over ambiguity — it’s “in or out”, “with us or against us”, “love me or leave me”. It can therefore be stormy — a cold winter storm, or a torrid tropical storm of passion, depending on how we “work” the energies 🙂

Manipulation and paranoia are the lower vibrations of this aspect, so as best you can, be straightforward — act in good faith and assume it in others. Best of all, be truly present to the fluctuations of your feelings — no matter if they’re “polite” or “timely”. Feelings aren’t facts, but they are information — and heeding them will help you embrace all of who you are.

Know thyself — and love thyself — you shall be set free. Remember: Love connects us to the Power within; Fear causes “Force” to show up — and that’s ultimately what disempowers us and others.

Monday late morning, a challenging Mercury/Chiron aspect becomes exact at 10:52am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from Saturday evening (July 17th) on; and it will remain strong until Tuesday night. This combination might bring up some insecurities in our verbal, in-person or email interactions.

That said, this could also be an opportunity for healing; we are energized to move past harsh criticism of ourselves or others, towards more loving and compassionate structures for thinking and communicating. As best as you can, stretch yourself — and be open to bringing love and understanding to it all (and that includes you) 🙂

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point or any personal planets in 10-16 degree of Cancer, Aries, Capricorn or Libra? If so, you are more affected by this aspect. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Gemini or Virgo (Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo).

Monday at 12:30pm EDT, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), that lasts for almost 4.5 hours until 5:08pm EDT. Use this intuitive time to enjoy familiar company and surroundings. Connect with others on a deep emotional level and nurture the ones closest to you (yourself included).

As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Monday afternoon ahead of time.

Monday at 5:08pm EDT, the Moon moves into optimistic, adventurous, truth-seeking Sagittarius, where it will journey until Wednesday evening. We’re strongly motivated to explore and learn. We’re not likely to be big fans of routine — diversity and new adventures work best at this time — we’re also physically restless and need to burn that off with activity and physical exercise.

We tend to feel more open, optimistic and inspired — but we also have a high degree of independence — and taking these two influences together, this means we’d rather inspire others to do things our way, as opposed to issuing or obeying orders. Inspiring others could come easier than normal, as we can see the bigger picture, leaving us confident that others will agree with us, once they see what we see. As best as you can,…

As best as you can, speak your truth without assuming that everyone is on the same page as you. Improvisation works well for us at this time, as we are spontaneous and love living on the edge — just watch out you aren’t overdoing or overstating things.

 

Tuesday, July 20th:

Tuesday, the Moon remains in optimistic, adventurous, truth-seeking Sagittarius (see Monday late afternoon/early evening for details).

Tuesday until midnight, is your last chance to take advantage of the EARLY BIRD SPECIAL for the upcoming Forecasting Forum.

PLEASE NOTE we’ll talk about the upcoming Uranus Station & Retrograde phases. Uranus stations: Aug. 5th until Sept. 2nd (Retrograde starts on Aug. 19th at almost 15º of Taurus)  — in relationship to our own birth charts! We will also cover Uranus’ ongoing Square to Saturn in Aquarius (Jan. 19th – July 18th, and Nov. 28th, 2021 – Jan. 18th, 2022).

To ask a question in advance; please email me by July 22nd,… and if I don’t have it yet, send me a copy of your Birth Chart (If you have done a Reading or Coaching-Healing session with me in the past, or if you have already emailed me a copy of your chart, I will have it.

Tuesday early morning, an opportune Mercury/Uranus aspect becomes exact at 5:38am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from Monday morning on; and it will remain strong until Wednesday morning. This brings an opportunity for insight and novelty. We might experience some really unusual conversations. Remember: an opportunity is not automatically given to us; we have to realize it.

This aspect also brings an opportunity to see things from a different perspective, or to put a new spin on our “old” thinking structure. We like to connect in unusual ways and any group activities or brainstorming with like-minded people could generate amazing insights — this might be a busy day. As best as you can — and as much as you want to — stay open to other dimensions 😉

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 12-17 degrees of Cancer, Taurus, Virgo or Pisces ? If so, you will be more aware of this opportunity. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Virgo, Gemini or Aquarius (Mercury is the ruler of Virgo and Gemini; Uranus is the ruler of Aquarius)

Tuesday afternoon, we might find ourselves wanting to explore a new healing modality for body, mind, and heart, aimed at  renewing our enthusiasm for life. We are capable of being compassionate and forgiving with ourselves at this time — and a gentle and holistic approach is best. (Moon in Sagittarius trines Chiron in Aries, exact at 2:30pm EDT)

Tuesday late afternoon, we experience a need for inner adjustments. We feel uneasy or awkward and need to make a choice. Making this choice demands we develop inner awareness around two very different urges: on the one hand, the desire to mentally explore and go beyond what we already know — and on the other hand, the need for breakthroughs or change connected to the physical plane.

We need to ask ourselves here: What might become possible if I got 5% more comfortable with being uncomfortable? Or 5% more comfortable embracing uncertainty? (Moon in Sagittarius quincunxes Uranus in Taurus, exact at 4:59pm EDT)

Thursday evening, once again, we experience a need for inner adjustments. We feel uneasy or awkward and need to make a choice. Making this choice demands we develop inner awareness around two very different urges: on the one hand, the desire to connect with what’s familiar and feels nurturing to us — and on the other hand, the need to explore and go beyond what we already know. (Moon in Sagittarius quincunxes Mercury in Cancer, exact at 6:42pm EDT)

 

Wednesday, July 21st:

Wednesday, the Moon remains in optimistic, adventurous, truth-seeking Sagittarius until 6:36pm EDT (see Monday late afternoon/early evening for details).

Wednesday, at 6:26pm EDT, we enter a brief Moon Void of Course (VoC), that lasts for 10 minutes, until 6:36pm EDT. Use this intuitive time to connect with others; share your enthusiasm and passion for life with loved ones with joy and creative self-expression, as this is definitely also a creative time. As best as you can, have fun — and allow whatever comes up to be a passionate self-expression.

As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan ahead of time.

Wednesday at 6:36pm EDT, the Moon moves into ambitious, goal-oriented Capricorn, where it will journey until Friday evening. We tend to be more realistic, serious, cautious; this can support practical endeavors and financial matters.

Our ambition surges and brings with it a need for structure and planning; when you add in the pragmatism this aspect supports, you can see how this could be a very productive time for business and long-term goals. Our reputation becomes very important to us.

As best as you can during this aspect, avoid “should-ing” on yourself. Take the pressure off, perhaps by saying “I am doing the best I can and that’s all I can ever do” 😉

Saturn is the ruler of Capricorn — and it will be transiting through Aquarius, making this a great time to take a look at our visions for humanity, and at anything we would like to accomplish long-term within our communities (locally or online).

It’s also a great time to take a more serious look at our various networks and connections to like-minded people; as best as you can, be authentic about your affiliations: Do they truly resonate with your personal vision for the future — as it stands now, rather than what it was 5 or 10 years ago?

Does participation in those groups or networks align with who you are now, and with where you see yourself 5 years from now? What do you truly want to commit yourself to?

Also, on Wednesday evening, at 8:37pm EDT, Venus moves from fun and attention-loving Leo into detail-oriented, practical Virgo. She will journey through that sign until Aug 16th. For the next 4 weeks, our relationships are going to be put under the magnifying glass. We are more likely to want to make our relationships work in real terms.

We need to feel of service to others; we love to help, especially in a practical, down to earth kind of a way. This might also be a great time to acknowledge the people in our lives who take care of those little, daily details and make our lives easier 🙂

On a social level, we might be more shy during this time — less confident — and most likely too busy to uphold our social commitments. On the financial side of things, we may want to invest in our health — especially around healthy daily routines — and anything that makes life run more smoothly on a practical level. Things that aren’t so practical, sensible and “just plain right” may leave us feeling uneasy.

Do you have your Ascendant or Sun-sign in Taurus or Libra? If so, you will feel more shy and possibly busier than usual for the next 4 weeks. Your heart will want to be of service to others. Being healthy and having a healthy partner is important now. If you are a Virgo Sun-sign or Rising-sign, you are going to have more love and beauty in your life for as long as Venus is in your sign.

Thursday morning, a Venus/Jupiter opposition becomes exact at 8:45am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from Monday evening on; and it will remain strong until Sunday evening. This is asking us to find an inner and outer balance between two apparently conflicting pulls:

On the one hand, we connect to our daily routines with love, and value our health and well-being — and on the other hand, is our need for expansion and new perspectives around our intuition and divine knowing. 

We have a tendency to overestimate our personal capabilities right now: We want to do (and be) more than is actually possible right now. In the same spirit, we might also have a tendency to live beyond our means.

As you can see, we need to watch out for feeling overly-optimistic or -enthusiastic. Moderation is the keyword, with regard to both finances and our affections: Check your bank account… and keep it real 😉

Find the balance point between what you value in your daily routines versus your spiritual growth journey. What daily routines might support your spiritual growth and your physical wellbeing?

Think back to Feb. 11th of this yearwhen Venus was conjunct Jupiter in Aquarius: What seeds were planted back then? What has developed in your social connections with others since February? What are you realizing now about those connections?

What requires balance and integration when it comes to the ideas and visions that have been initiated since February? What is asking for discernment? What is asking for faith and trust in the divine unfolding of things?

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in the following: 0-4 degrees of Virgo, Pisces, Gemini, Sagittarius or 27-29 degrees of Leo, Aquarius, Taurus or Scorpio? If so, you will feel this aspect quite strongly. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Taurus, Libra or Sagittarius (Venus is the ruler of Taurus and Libra; Jupiter is the ruler of Sagittarius).

Thursday late morning, a somewhat challenging Mars/Pluto aspect becomes exact at 10:09am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from Wednesday late morning on; and it will remain strong until Friday late morning. We feel uneasy about something, almost awkward — and we need to make a choice. An inner awareness needs to be developed in order to see what needs adjusting.

As best as you can, evaluate any projects before getting involved; our great energy and genuine humanitarian spirit could feed other people’s unrealistic expectations, leaving us feeling drained and unappreciated.

If we are able to reevaluate our everyday habits and inner dialog, we will see whether or not they really support our long term goals. If you have the choice, go deeper rather than faster — empower yourself and others by thinking long-term, rather than tearing forward…

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 24-27 degrees of Leo or Capricorn? If so, you will be more affected by this aspect. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Aries or Scorpio (Mars is the ruler of Aries; Pluto rules Scorpio).

Thursday at 10:26am EDT, the Sun changes sign from protective, nurturing Cancer to fun and attention-loving Leo, where it will journey until August 22nd. With the Sun in Leo, we are more inclined to connect to our heart and follow our joy: it’s a great time for gratitude, compliments, and playfulness.

In many ways, happy children embody the best of the Leo qualities: they are creative, playful, self-expressed and follow their hearts. Who could you be if you lived from your “inner child” more fully for the next four weeks?

If you have a Leo Sun-sign or Rising-sign, this means strong vitality for you — after all, for some of you, this is your birthday month 😉 Happy Birthday! <3

Thursday night/Friday very early morning, a somewhat challenging Sun/Jupiter aspect becomes exact at 12:10am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from Wednesday night on; and it will remain strong until Saturday very early morning. This aspect operates more on an internal level. We feel uneasy about something, sort of awkward — and we need to make a choice. An inner awareness needs to be developed if we’re to see what needs adjusting.

More profoundly though, we may feel challenged, as we realize that we are being overly enthusiastic with others. That high optimism may also drive us to take on more than we can physically handle. If we do start to feel drained or frustrated, it might be helpful to look at how we use our energy: Are we in tune with our heart?

It’s also worthwhile to examine how our personal beliefs about our career or long-term standing in society are being received by others… Can we involve them in our desire for greater achievements? And even perhaps our desire for better social structures?

Moving too fast or jumping around too much will not serve us now — nor will talking too much and listening too little — so as best as you can, stay open-minded and curious, keep listening to your inner joy, and allow the heart to be of service to you, rather than a distraction 😉

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in the following: 0-2 degrees of LeoPisces, or 29 degrees of Cancer or Aquarius? If so, you will be more affected by this aspect. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Leo or Sagittarius (the Sun rules of Leo; Jupiter rules Sagittarius)

Friday at 12:34pm EDT, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), that lasts for almost 8 hours, until 8:12pm EDT. Use this intuitive time to focus on long-term successes. We might get a little obsessed with a project or task — as best as you can, take breaks and don’t forget to practice a little self-care 😉

As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Friday afternoon and evening ahead of time.

Friday at 8:12pm EDT, the Moon moves into freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius, where it will journey until Sunday late evening. The energy of the Aquarian Moon relates to our instinct for improvement. Reactions are more intellectual than emotional; interactions more impersonal than personal. We are likely to have an increased fascination with the new and unusual.

Social gatherings, anything connected with group ideals and goals for the future, brainstorming, new ideas and methods, progress: all these are promoted during the time the Moon moves through Aquarius. Again: we have our eyes on the future — or on outer space 🙂 Personal freedom becomes paramount. This Moon placement also starts the build up towards the Full Moon (exact later this evening).

Friday late evening, at 10:37pm EDT, the Full Moon in 1.5 degrees of Aquarius becomes exact. As mentioned above, the entrance of the Moon into Aquarius earlier this evening started the energetic build up towards this Full Moon;

the Moon in freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius opposes the Sun in fun-loving, expressive Leo. If you are already a Member of my online community, you can click here to watch my video about this Full Moon 😉

Uranus in Taurus (the modern ruler of Aquarius), is still in a Square aspect to Saturn (the traditional ruler of Aquarius) in this Full Moon chart. The Moon in Aquarius makes an out-of-sign conjunction with Pluto, and approaches a conjunction with Saturn in Aquarius. There are also three Oppositions and three Quincunxes in this Full Moon chart.

Oppositions require integration and balance, whereas Quincunxes invite us to make some inner adjustments, as we may be experiencing some internal discomfort. Two of those three Quincunxes are inviting us to pay closer attention to our health. These are the major themes of this Full Moon chart and we will address them in detail in a moment.

But first, let’s talk about this Full Moon:

The Moon in Aquarius opposes the Sun in Leo; this highlights the power of our individual creativity and the exponential potency of collaboration. Each of us is invited to reclaim ourselves, and add our voice, heart, and hands to something that has meaning for us.

The invitation here is to dare to be different, and to remember how we are all part of a larger whole. The highest quest of Leo leads to authentic Self-expression: to embody our gifts, shine our light, and live our truth. The highest task of Aquarius, on the other hand, is the attainment of unity in diversity, where everyone’s uniqueness is honored and included.

When we align our head with our heart, we feel our interconnectedness with all of humanity, and we create and connect from love instead of fear. Given that Leo represents our individual self-expression and Aquarius our vision for humankind, a question is raised: How can we best achieve a balance between these two energies? Or perhaps even an integration?

For the next two weeks, we’ll be looking for answers to this question, as we might become more aware that something is out of alignment.

Even the brightest of Full Moons has a shadow side To read the whole article and get access to all the Coaching Questions in writing, click here.

Do you have your Ascendant (or any personal planets) in the following: 0-4 degrees of Aquarius, Leo, Taurus, Scorpio or 29 degrees of Capricorn, Cancer, Aries or Sagittarius? If so, you may feel the effects of this Full Moon more strongly. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Leo or Cancer (the Sun rules Leo; the Moon rules Cancer).

 

Saturday, July 24th:

Saturday, the Moon remains in freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius all day (see Friday evening for details).

Saturday early afternoon, a harmonious Mercury/Neptune becomes exact at 12:35pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from Thursday evening on; and it will remain strong until Monday morning. This aspect supports our imagination and the connection of our day-to-day mind to our intuition.

We can sense the thoughts and feelings of others; therefore we pay closer attention to how our words are landing. This leads to a heightened adaptability and sensitivity in our communications with others. Our appreciation for photography, the arts, poetry, fiction and spirituality is sharpened; we are also more open to metaphysical or spiritual concepts.

Do you have any of your personal planets or Ascendant in 20-26 degrees of Cancer, Pisces or Scorpio? If so, you will be most blessed by this aspect. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Gemini, Virgo or Pisces (Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo; Neptune rules Pisces).

Saturday afternoon: we are invited to focus on a long-term vision for our communities that involves a mature and realistic approach. As best as you can, take your time, and do your best to come from a place of integrity. (Moon in Aquarius conjuncts Saturn in Aquarius, exact at 2:25pm EDT)

Saturday evening, we may feel pulled in two quite different directions: On the one hand, we experience a need for connecting with like-minded people and remaining objective; on the other hand, we want to make space for pursuing our financial vision — and we also want to break free from outdated value systems.

As such, we may have to address what we value both in others, and in ourselves (which informs our self-worth); as best as you can, make adjustments and find creative solutions when it comes to these energies. (Moon in Aquarius squares Uranus in Taurus, exact at 8:43pm EDT) 

 

Sunday, July 25th: 

Sunday, the Moon remains in freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius until 11:30pm EDT (see Friday evening for details).

Sunday late afternoon, a Mercury/Pluto opposition becomes exact at 4:15pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from Saturday morning on; and it will remain strong until Monday night (July 26th). This opposition might bring up some very deep issues that need to be discussed. Obsessive thinking, attempts to persuade, insistence on knowing the “truth” or exposing lies… these are all possibilities now.

We are capable of very hard work and exertion. In particular, we tend to pursue ideas with intensity, making this an excellent time for any kind of research or in-depth study. We may not be able to put our inner thoughts and experiences into words — and maybe that’s as well, given the darkness and intensity of those thoughts.

We may develop a great love of debate, but we need to be careful not to overpower others with our strong opinions, in our efforts to “convert” them — in other words, treating debates or exchanges of opinion as battlegrounds.

Intense conversations and connections feel more “real” than superficial ones. We want to dig out the truth about our feelings and the world we’ve built. As best as you can, try not to obsess about what someone said to you, or what you’ve heard: We may take things personally that were actually meant to empower us. Here’s what it comes down to: Could you allow yourself to go deeper and tap into your true inner power?

As best as you can, take it one moment at a time; as best you can, resolve issues through cooperation and stay objective. When you notice that you are taking things personally and starting to get defensive, take a deep breath and ask yourself: Is this really about me? Or my past issues? Or theirs? How can I ground myself in the here and now? What might change if I decided to focus on nurturing myself?

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 22-29 degrees of Cancer, Capricorn, Aries or Libra? If so, you will be more affected by this aspect. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Gemini, Virgo or Scorpio (Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo; Pluto rules Scorpio).

Sunday at 7:14pm EDT, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), that lasts for a little over 4 hours until 11:30pm EDT. Use this intuitive time to examine your relationship to your various communities. Ask yourself: How can I balance my need for progress and unity against my desire for personal self-expression and leadership?

As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Sunday evening ahead of time.

Sunday at 11:30pm EDT, the Moon moves into creative, sensitive Pisces, where it will journey until next week, Wednesday early morning (July 28th). This Moon placement often finds us more sensitive, intuitive, idealistic and imaginative than normal. We also have a greater capacity for compassion, sympathy, and affection for all — but especially for those who suffer or can be regarded as the underdog.

But… that very idealism could also be our downfall at this time: We tend to see the best in everyone and everything, and when reality doesn’t match our idyllic vision, we might feel upset and even victimized by those harsh realities. A way out of this is to channel our idealism into spiritual or creative endeavors.

It’s also a great time for releasing fears — especially the ones based on a sense of separation — and experiencing “oneness”. Feelings tend to flow more freely; as best as you can, let them — in fact, “going with the flow” is the best way to go for the next couple of days.

And…
