Astrology for the week of July 17 - July 24

 

We start this week with Cancer New Moon.  See separate post. 

The first three days of the week are the new.  As always we plant seeds on new moons.   Actions based on emotions and feelings are critical during Cancer New Moon.    The moon rules Cancer and is therefore at home in this new moon.  Emotions and feelings give us hints on actions we need to take.  This is not the week to ignore feelings.   However, collapsing into emotions is not recommended.   Feeling the feelings and riding them like a rapid is more to the point of a cardinal new moon.   Use them to get you where you need to get.   :) 

Between July 21 - July 28 there are a lot of aspects with Pluto and the North Node.  This will speak to needed changes both globally and personally (for some).    Watch what comes up to see what your emotions tell you and consider a sensible plan of actions.  The focus will be on transformation and singular actions that are based on strength and independence.      

 

New moon: Plant seeds, make calls, activate, start projects.   Activate something that will ideally lead you to more.  This is the phase where INTENT is critical.  Even if the results are not immediate, the intent is there.  You may not have all the answers or road map, but you should put out your Intent.

 

This focus:     What are you learning about your feelings?  How are your emotions driving your actions?   How are you letting the emotions ride through you?   What directions are you getting from your feelings?     How do you process the ups and downs of your feelings?  How is family motivating your actions?    What is the GPS heading you can take from your emotions?  

 

Special note:

 

7/17 :  North Node enter Aries 

7/20: Sun trine Neptune.  Creativity and inspiration.  Humanitarian actions are pronounced.  Feelings are connected to something spiritual or bigger.    

7/20: Mars oppose Saturn.  Actions born from practicality.   Being willing to say no but still taking care of business.
