Theme:  U Turn

The prominent transit today is a T- square between Venus, Pluto and the Moon, bringing a great deal of emotional volatility. There is a potential for conflict with or about others. Manipulation may be rife, so keep silent counsel and use this transit to turn inward. Contemplate the change you would like to see for yourself that obstructs depth in your relationships.

“ Turning inward is very simple. It is only since you have been looking outward for too long that turning inward appears far away.”
Sadhguru

Theme:  Mars conjunct Uranus

“ No other transit is more conducive than this one to sudden upsets, rash behavior and surprising incidents.”
Robert Hand. ( Astrologer)
The build up to major transits are often felt days , sometimes weeks before cresting and conjuncting each other (7/16), at which point there is a release of energy and an outer or inner experience will occur. How this impacts us is dependent on whether we have natal planets at that exact degree. In this case 26 degrees Taurus.
If you have planets between 24-28 degrees in Taurus, Scorpio,Leo or Aquarius this could be a very challenging time. Challenges will assist us and sometimes, force us to change, particularly if we are resistant.
Uranus has the role of waking us up from our deep slumber and because it is an outer planet it affects us more on a universal level than personal.
If we are open to change, this could be an inspiring time, particularly if we follow the path of least resistance.

The Moon is Void of Course today from 6.49pm until 10.53am (7/14) EDT.
Do not make any big decisions during this time period

Theme:  Let it Be

The Moon moves into Libra today and brings a strong sense of fairness. All sides are being weighed and pondered in many situations on a national and world level.
This transit can affect you on a personal level too. With Moon opposite Neptune it’s easy to feel confused and misunderstand issues at hand. If possible delay making any firm decisions until after the weekend.
Libra is a very social sign so it’s not all doom and gloom. Enjoy harmonious relations with good friends and let the clouds of doubt dissipate of their own accord.

“ Sometimes letting things go is an act of far greater power than hanging on.”
Eckhart Tolle

Theme: Receiving support

It’s a harmonious period in which you can lean to receive more including support and love from others. You have more space for joy and expressing gratitude, and more drive. Having said all of that you will feel frustrated today in juggling responsibilities and duties, and pushing too hardcan backfire. There is an opportunity with Sun square Chiron to tackle past painful events through self-honesty.

…come together and help and support one another.~Gyatrul Rinpoche

The Moon is Void of Course today between EDT USA 9.55pm until 10:06pm. Avoid starting new projects, making new purchases, planning big events or signing contracts during this time. Take time for inner reflection and self-care.

Theme: Approaches

As Mars approaches Uranus now is the time to work on stabilizing your mind at a time when the world around you may be in flux owing to the tension building between these two planets. Preparing the mind and finding ways to safely release tension, within helps resolve any impending crises. Venus in Cancer provides a cushion of compassion at this time.

Remain relaxed, without clinging or contrivance within mind’s nature, like space, free from any reference point And with the vigor of vivid, mindful awareness!~Kalu Rinpoche

Theme: Mutable moments

With the Moon moving into the earth sign of Virgo today the focus turns to attending to your daily routine and health. As an earth sign Virgo draws our attention towards practical matters and being in the natural world including caring for small animals. It’s a naturally flexible or mutable sign. With the Sun in the water sign of Cancer there is a natural fit with the Moon in Virgo, so more harmony is evident over the next few days.

I am so often struck by the dangerous narcissism fostered by spiritual rhetoric that pays so much attention to individual self-improvement and so little to the practice of love within the context of community~bell hooks

Theme: Contemplating home

With the Sun in Cancer now is the time to tend to your home environment and strengthen your ties to those you consider family. Nurturing these ties provides a web of support for you. Mercury is sextile with Jupiter, and conjuncts the Moon today in Leo bringing a light, expansive touch to connecting and communicating with others. It’s also a learning opportunity about communicating in ways that uphold the dignity of others.

…to have the dharma just strikes me as being so extraordinary. I mean, what an extraordinary privilege to know that you have within you a refuge that nobody can ever touch.~Helen Tworkov

Theme:  Firing up the Grill

With the Moon moving into Leo and conjunct Mercury conversations could get heated or even inflamed. Moon is also opposite Pluto which can intensify emotions further and really expose the depth of any conflict you may be experiencing. Even though your encounters may feel verbally chaotic and overwhelming, Pluto always works on bringing to light what needs to be changed. Generally that doesn’t happen overnight.

“ It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change.”
Charles Darwin

Theme:  Love

Moon and Venus flavor the day bringing ease and warmth through sharing time with friends and loved ones. Your heart is open and it’s easy to give and receive.
Enjoy a day of sharing an abundance of good food in the company of good women.

“ What if you could cultivate this understanding so deeply that, because of your realization, compassion and profound generosity become as much a reflex as breathing?”
Jetsunma Ahkon Lhamo

The Moon is Void of Course today from 11.47pm until 11.56pm EDT. Do not make any big decisions during this time.

Theme:  Fleeting moments

The Moon moves into Cancer and conjuncts the Sun creating the New Moon cycle. All lunar transits are fleeting by nature lasting only a couple of hours, but the influence of the New Moon can reset the body and mind for a month. It is a good time for new beginnings. The moon rules the feminine side of us and being in Cancer magnifies this energy also.
Sensitivity and nurturing are heightened, bringing maternal feelings to the fore.
Surgery is not favorable at this time.

“ It’s not impermanence that makes us suffer. What makes us suffer is wanting things to be permanent when they are not.”
Thich Nhat Hanh
