Sunday: Scorpio Moon, known for pulling our attention inward and creating the need for personal space. Mercury and the Moon are in harmony for family gatherings and news. It's a great aspect to create with, as emotions request full expression. Saturn and the Moon challenge one another, in very different, yet both fixed, signs. This also points to next weekend when the Full Moon is close to Saturn in Aquarius. The challenges or debates come up now, for resolving as the Full Moon moves through. Sit with differences and see how they yield or play out this week. The Moon also opposes Pluto with a very Scorpio-like influence. Much of what's really happening is under the surface. Today's color is Black.

Monday: Both dreams and actions are activated today. There could be some hurdles, but the motivation arises and you may also rise to the challenges. Scorpio Moon aligns with Neptune for our visionary side. The Moon squares both Venus and Mars in Leo for strong personalities looking to compromise or partner powerfully. There's the tension between fixed signs, but it's creative and passionate tension and good things can come from that healthy sort of stress or debate. The Moon and Sun align in water signs at 12:30 pm EST, and void Moon time begins for nearly 5 hours. Take a little time off or get into the zone with work or creative activity. Sagittarius Moon from 5:08 pm squares Jupiter around 6:30 pm EST. Notice shifts or inner conflicts regarding your lifestyle and philosophy or understanding of life. Travel may prove to be challenging tonight. Wear Purple.

Tuesday: Sagittarius Moon in harmony with Saturn retrograde brings up commitments, possibly for reevaluation. What might you be learning about promises, adulting, and your agreements with other people, especially groups you associate with? Saturn's lessons relate to promises and how we break or keep them. Mercury aligns with Uranus for news that's very likely unplanned for. Something revealed today takes us by surprise. Some may get acceptances or mail of an interesting nature. Today's color is Yellow.

Wednesday: Sagittarius Moon with a mix of aspects and energies. Go on an adventure with someone you love, or might love!, as the Moon trines Mars and Venus in Leo. It's a fire sign day, to begin with, and everything fun, exciting, and full of discovery is favored. New relationships thrive. Travels may be extra fun, even short road trips or local discoveries. Void Moon is only 10 minutes long, later in the day, as the Moon changes signs at 6:36 pm EST. The Moon and Jupiter are in harmony for hands on healing and also for projects requiring hands on and physical skills. Blend earth and water. Hang out by the ocean or lake. Work in the garden. Bring something to fruition or life. Venus moves to Virgo at 8:37 pm EST and you may find yourself redesigning or redecorating in the weeks ahead. Venus in Virgo appreciates beauty in a particular way that may resemble perfectionism or things being 'just so' as my grandma would say. Today's color is Green.

Thursday: Capricorn Moon as the Sun moves to Leo for the middle phase of summer. The shift occurs at 10:26 am EST this year. Babies born from then on have Leo as their sun sign. Today starts with Venus opposite Jupiter emphasizing how we manifest love and prosperity. Give some love and tenderness and share some wisdom gently, to someone who needs it. Capricorn Moon aligns with Uranus in Taurus, both earth signs. This continues Uranus influence this week, in the form of news and things to respond to. Do some quick problem solving even if it's just a temporary fix. We may need to roll with news and changes this week, as they come, one by one. The Moon is nearly Full and it's likely to be eventful, related to groups we are part of, our community, and our own needs. Hope your surprises are good ones! Today's color is Gold. 

Friday: Full Moon in Aquarius 10:37 pm EST. The Sun is now in Leo, opposite the Moon as always during Full Moon times. This Moon is known as Thunder Moon for summer storms, and as Buck Moon as male deer begin to regrow their antlers in July. The day begins with Capricorn Moon, opposite Mercury for family and home related developments and discussions. Some will find, close on or lease their homes under this Full Moon and it may be the close of other processes too. Neptune and Pluto provide shadowy influences like undercurrents and unspoken or underdeveloped thoughts and feelings. People may need time to themselves to process and sort. Contemplate priorities and next moves. Notice how you really feel versus how you think you should feel. How you really feel becomes more important at some point, and that point may be right now. Void Moon 12:34 pm to 8:12 pm EST, hours intended for doing less, at least in terms of business. These are great hours to clean the house or office, but be careful you don't misplace things that later will seem to be lost. Plain view may be better than 'in a safe place' or out of sight. Aquarius Full Moon relates to our ability to envision, to invent, to see beyond the literal, and to honor and acknowledge our roles in groups and in friendships. Blend me with we in a harmonious way. Be yourself even within the crowd. Aquarius is about uniqueness and is willing to revolutionize and transform. Technology is one of Aquarius's domains. Expect news and significant developments in any of these areas. Renew commitments to yourself and others. Wear White. 

Saturday: Aquarius Moon, full and meeting Saturn retrograde. This may be a final chance at something you passed on or couldn't work out before. Saturn will move back to Pisces and not visit Aquarius again for many years. If you're around 30 or 60 years old, this may have something to do with your Saturn returns, and for all this is related to wisdom that comes with experience. Is it now time for something you couldn't make happen last year, maybe in the fall? If the terms are right, this could be your time for major life decisions and agreements. It's quite serious and intentional, so notice the weight or responsibility this will bring. Later, the Moon squares Uranus in Taurus for an aha or an oh-oh and something new to be resolved. If you or someone else is overly stubborn, this may create a situation, such as a stalemate. Emotions may not be easy to manage or we might shut feelings down in favor of practicality.  Today's color is Silver.
