Uranus brings aha moments where we finally understand, for good or for difficulty, that things must change or have changed. Also, we may feel creative and inspired. Take extra time to rest and recharge, even doing nothing for a while. Rest near the water or on the earth. Feel your feelings, let others do the same. Wear Blue.

Thursday ~New Moon in Leo at 1:55 pm ET. Leo Moon moves in at 2:36 am ET after 5 1/2 void of course hours. Jupiter is the main influence and supporter of this New Moon, adding extra energy for initiative, motivation, enthusiasm and next steps. Mercury in Leo squares Uranus in Taurus. People may say things or break news that is initially hard to believe! People may also say things too impulsively. Let news and energy settle after any suddenness or visceral response. Begin important matters, projects, and restart plans and projects that you haven't been paying much attention to. Jupiter brings extra favor and energy to this new cycle. Wear White.

Friday ~ Leo Moon squares two potentially challenging planets in Taurus, Uranus and Mars. This can bring issues and conflicts into focus. These two planets can be quick acting. Go a bit slower than you want to so your steps are careful and your actions clear and grounded. Creative differences may come up. The Moon and Mercury meet for more news, for writing, speaking and performing as well as rehearsing and studying. Learn something new, travel without having to rush, explore a place or a new skill. It's a social night. Wear Orange.

Saturday ~ Leo to Virgo Moon. After the Moon opposes Saturn late night (more potential differences or pressures), void Moon is 12:29 am to 2:11 pm ET. A leisurely day would be ideal. Socialize, approach things flexibly, and add just enough organization to create certainty and comfort. In some cases Saturn will be bringing up major agreements, commitments, and finalizing things. Overnight, Mercury and Saturn will oppose, adding the terms, rules or new set of guidelines. Today's color is Gold.

Sunday, July 31st ~Virgo Moon, though the powerful influence is the Sun trine to Jupiter in Leo and Aries. This is positive, heart opening, inspires action, and favors whatever is new or renewed. This is a strong day to take a leap of faith. The Moon and Venus are also in harmony for romance, sensuality, and ease in relationships. Wear Red today.

Monday ~ Virgo Moon aligns with planets in other earth signs, Taurus and Capricorn. This may bring out practical, detail oriented traits and approaches. Tap into the part of you that  knows 'how'. Last minute and spontaneous plans and problem solving may be necessary. Mars and Uranus conjunction at 7:53 pm ET can be overwhelming or extremely exciting and favors what's rare, unusual and dynamic. It's not likely to be a quiet day. Balance with calming activities and practices and what you do, don't overextend or overdo. Take extra care. Void Moon starts 6:29 pm ET. Wear Indigo.

Tuesday ~ Libra Moon from 12:06 am ET until Thursday morning. Uranus, very active this week, now aligns with Venus for engagements, relationship changes, exciting new romances, and family events that are also catalysts for long term change. Libra Moon opposes Jupiter and is in harmony with the Sun, encouraging growth. Keep arrangements fair and positive for all involved. Enjoy a date or other adventure. Wear Pink.

Listen deeply, both within and to  others. A burst of energy for cleaning, organizing, and creating may come with this Scorpio Moon. Today's color is maroon or any dark shade of Red.

Friday ~ Scorpio Moon squares the Sun. We may experience this as inner conflict or differences related to emotion versus action, water and fire. This sets the tone for a day that also includes two Scorpio Moon oppositions to challenging and action oriented planets in Taurus, Uranus and Mars. If there's conflict today, it'll be strong and relentless. Another possibility is strong perseverance and endurance that's much needed and a deep inner feeling and instinct about how to proceed. Moon and Saturn finish the day with another square. Situations and negotiations could be overly challenging and require some 'time away' to cool down and regroup. Make sure you mean what you say and engage only in what you really believe in, and avoid regrets, acting out of anger or vengefulness, and acting too quickly. Wear Black.

Saturday ~ Scorpio Moon in harmony with Venus in Cancer, Neptune in Pisces and Pluto in Capricorn. This is a more reflective kind of emotional and could be soothing, calming, and harmonizing. The vibe is more inward, intimate and inspires creative flow. It's a good time to release a feeling that's too strong or no longer relevant, and to focus on self care and healthy relationships. Void Moon 7:24 am to 12:39 pm when Sagittarius Moon time arrives. Be spontaneous with everything other than words. Keep your messages and words thoughtful and careful as the Moon and Mercury square. Wear Light Blue.

Sun in Cancer/Sun in Leo & Venus to Cancer July 17th ~July 23rd, 2022

Sunday ~Pisces Moon. Mercury and Neptune form a dreamlike trine for creativity, pleasure and water element which includes lakes, rivers, ocean and also emotion. Be kind with words and sensitive to feelings, others' and your own. The Sun and Neptune form a similar trine, in Cancer and Pisces, for emotional self expression, romance, love and enjoyment. If there's a downside, that could be denial of some responsibility or situation we will return to later on. Venus enters Cancer at 9:32 pm ET, a time of nesting, of reunions, and connecting more deeply with the ones we love. This may also be a cycle of redesigning, creating comfortable spaces, and sensing beauty of all kinds. Neptune and the Moon meet at 11:07 pm ET continuing both romantic and sentimental feelings. Today's color is Light Blue.

Monday ~ Pisces to Aries Moon at 7:17 am ET after a few hours void of course. After midnight, the Moon aligns with Mercury, Pluto and those two planets oppose each other. This is a reflective influence and can be channeled into journal, art or meditation. Sit with anything that needs more time. Observe your true feelings and intuitions. Dreams may be heightened. Aries Moon comes in like a storm or rush of energy, squaring Venus to push any relationship dilemma into the spotlight. Carefully sort theses situations and avoid power struggles that will hurt relationships or other parties. The Moon and Jupiter meet for expansive qualities like growth from pursuing new interests and paths including travel options. Wear Red.

Tuesday ~ Aries Moon. Mercury moves to Leo, favoring artists, performers, teachers and children and activities related to all of the above. It's an expressive, creative sign for the communication planet. Learn something new this month. Enter a program of study, try out for a team or performance group. The Sun is opposite Pluto helping us decide what actually serves our soul growth. Wear Orange.

Wednesday ~ Aries Moon squares heavenly bodies in Capricorn and Cancer, including Pluto and the Sun. The Moon also aligns with Saturn. All of this before 10:19 am means a full morning and need for a quick start. There are matters to be balanced, especially related to control, family, group process and inner feelings vs outward actions. From 10:19 am to 2:23 pm ET, the Moon is void of course, a time to pause if possible and take stock. Taurus Moon moves in at 2:23 pm with a square to Mercury and sextile to Venus.  Verbal and written communication may be less reliable or effective. Show your true feelings and remember actions count more than words. Sensual, romantic, familiar vibes tonight. Wear Pink.

Thursday ~ Taurus Moon meets Mars at 12:06 pm ET. This persevering, activated influence is likely to strengthen whatever is being felt. Mars in Taurus refuses to take no for an answer an pushes for outcomes. Be cautious with money investments and purchases today. Build something, start construction, and be aware of your own inflexibility or stubbornness if it arises. Today's color is Black for grounding.

Friday ~ Taurus Moon meets Uranus, the catalyst. Between Mars yesterday and Uranus today, energy ranges from strong to overwhelming. Neptune soften things a bit, but Saturn equally points out the gravities and responsibilities. Own what's going on in your life. At 4:07 pm ET, the Sun moves into Leo, a time of summer for enjoyment and being in the audience or on stage. You could call it a festival time, or a time for other events such as weddings and gatherings. But the Taurus Moon and Pluto align for a more introspective, home oriented evening on this particular day. Ground in what matters and in your own truths. Void Moon 7:45 pm on. Wear Gold.

Saturday ~ The Moon shifts to Gemini at 1:11 am ET and aligns with Leo Sun for a more social and extroverted day. Brainstorm ideas, read, discover, have interesting conversations, and attend an event to align with this sextile. The Moon is also in harmony with Jupiter and Mercury, enhancing everything and in positive, optimistic ways. Mercury and Jupiter favor action, inspiration, and enthusiasm for new and growing endeavors, as they align in fire signs Leo and Aries. Today's color is Yellow.

Full Moon in Capricorn July 10th-16th, 2022

Sunday ~ Warming up for a Full Moon in Capricorn on Wednesday, today the Moon is in Sagittarius from 4:34 am ET forward. Cancer Sun aligns with Uranus in Taurus for spontaneity and something unexpected that lands in an emotional way. The Moon and Jupiter align in fire signs for expansive perspective, action, and feelings of newness or renewal. Travel is favored. Wear Orange.

Full Moon Yoga Nidra in the aerial hammocks is today 5:30 pm at Leaping Waters 

Can't make it tonight, but intrigued? Save Wednesday, August 10th 7:00 pm and join me in August.

Monday ~ Sagittarius Moon and the Moon is close to Full., opposite Venus, and in harmony with Saturn. Notice feelings about personal relationships vs or in contrast to your place and role in larger groups or groups of friends.  There could be conflict between the two. The tendency is toward more adventurous, open and outgoing today and during Venus in Gemini time. Socializing with new friends or someone inspiring or exciting will be very appealing. Venus is flirtatious and favors dating casually now. It's not a very reliable evening for plans. People you expect may not be available or no shows. Keep today light and flexible. Wear Light Blue.

Tuesday ~ The Moon is directly Full on Wednesday afternoon, but consider tonight to be Full Moon time. Known as Buck Moon, Wolf Moon and Thunder Moon, the Capricorn Full Moon is reputed to bring intensity to the weather in the form of heat or storms. Look for lots of extra animal activity, especially overnights this week. At 5:01 am ET, the Moon enters Capricorn, and is trine to Mars and square Jupiter. Business situations call for immediate attention and action. If you're not in the business world, you may be called to take a role in family matters, and quickly, without hesitation. This appear to be an activating day. Capricorn Moon is also about organizations, hierarchy of authority, keeping things running efficiently and productively, keeping your body moving and strong, and this one may involve difficult crossroads or decisions. It's a super moon and it'll be bright and maybe look large, so close to earth (relatively). Today's color is Green.

Wednesday ~ On this Full Moon day, Venus aligns with Saturn for getting a handle on relationship matters, especially our roles, responsibilities to each other and how we interact. Make an agreement for getting along better. This can include agreeing to disagree, and move on. The Moon itself is opposite Mercury, indicating a crossroads or decision that must be communicated about. Family and business news and changes increase and peak. Keep communication open. Uranus aligns with both Mercury and the Moon, from Taurus. Change and news come quickly and unexpectedly, with potential for radical shifts in the blink of an eye. Full Moon is at 2:38 pm exactly. Look for Moon rise to be spectacular and a topic of conversation. Neptune in Pisces aligns with the Moon for a romantic and special evening for lovers and creatives. Do not diminish your intuition and inner voice during this Full Moon. Capricorn can lean into only what's tangible and present. Mix in gut feel and inner sight as you speak, decide and follow a path. Wear White.

Thursday ~ Capricorn Moon meets Pluto 12:17 am ET. See what comes up in your dreams or in random thoughts or feelings that seems to come out of nowhere. Pluto brings things up from the depths. The Moon, being Full, amplifies this. Venus and Neptune square overnight too. Both relate to romance, sense of beauty and creativity, appealing to our senses of what we love and are attracted to. The square brings tension or conflict of interests. Working it through may bring a sense of what one wants and needs. Be very gentle with yourself and others during this Full Moon. At 4:13 am ET, a change in the air as the Moon moves to Aquarius, a sign that often can step back and see the big picture. The Moon squares Mars in Taurus. Is your drive stronger for the people in your life or for the productivity, such as work. This topic will come up for some more than others. Jupiter in Aries supports the Aquarius Moon, favoring new plans, release from the old and making way for progress and initiative. Be the architect and begin to draw up new plans, for anything. Fill in all the details. This is a letting go time, a time of release of things, situations, feelings, or relationships if they truly cannot be healthy or withstand the changes. Today's color is Turquoise.

Friday ~ Aquarius Moon square to Uranus and meeting Saturn makes for an eventful Friday. Post Full Moon changes and news continue and there's a serious or pressing nature to all of this. Decisions may be needed quickly and on the spot. Be inventive and try not to settle. Agreements will hold for a long while, if made now. They may be hard to change, especially in situations that have gone on and on without resolution. Keep all of this in mind as you say yes, and if you feel like it's not going to work out, acknowledge that somehow too. Streamline, organize and notice what drives you. It's a decent day for group work or learning. Things will be and should be taken seriously. The Moon and Venus are in harmony for a social evening, especially late night. Today's color is Black.

Saturday ~ After the Moon and Venus align at 12:36 am ET, it's void Moon until 4:18 am. Be mindful if you're up late or out late. We may be spacy, forgetful, caught up in something relationship related, and generally ungrounded. Pisces Moon vibes from 4:18 am through the rest of the weekend. And the Sun and Mercury meet in Cancer for reunions, reconnecting with people we care about and enjoy being with, family meetings or gatherings, Pisces Moon in harmony with Mars in Taurus makes today  more active, suited to some physical exercise and/or creative project. Blue is today's color.

Planetary Shifts July 3rd-9th, 2022

 Mars moves to Taurus, Mercury moves to Cancer on July 5th

Here's the rest of your forecasts and daily colors for this waxing Moon time


Sunday ~ Leo to Virgo Moon at 8:31 am ET. The Moon aligns with Mars in Aries, the final aspect Mars makes before shifting to Taurus on Tuesday. This may give energy for the day and motivation for both social and other activity. Do something active and fun if this fire sign alignment boosts you this morning. Virgo Moon today is uneventful. Yard work and taking care of the garden and home things may make sense and even be appealing. Get something looking and feeling the way  you want it to, outdoors or in. Wear Brown.

Monday ~ Virgo Moon sextile with the Sun in Cancer and in harmony with Uranus in Taurus, and this day may yield happy surprises or what seem to be more than coincidences. Ground in nature, both earth and water. The Moon also squares Venus in Gemini and we may notice this through tension between self and partner if our points of view are differing. Aim for agreement by listening to each other. Wear Indigo.

Tuesday ~ Two planets change signs and that shifts how they affect us and interact with other planets, the Sun and Moon. Mars in Taurus is focused on earthly tasks, money and acquisitions. Mercury in Cancer is sentimental and leads us to visit romantic places and places from our pasts. Mercury can feel a bit retrograde in Cancer (my opinion) because of the family and emotional connections this encourages. These two planets are in  harmony today, so  notice how these ideas play out right away. The Moon is void of course from 2:04 pm to 6:25 pm ET, good hours for rest and relaxation. There's a dreamy aspect to today and a healthy escape may bring the desired feeling. Libra Moon from 6:25 pm on and a square to Mercury newly in Cancer. Explore what's fair and sensible in conversations. Try not to let small differences become big. Take an objective approach tonight. Wear Lavender.

Wednesday ~ Libra Moon opposite Jupiter,  now a monthly occurrence while Jupiter is in Aries. Questions about how to grow and move forward come up for contemplation. The Moon and Sun are also square which can make us indecisive. Take your time with things that can wait. Look for consensus and temporary possibilities with things that cannot wait. Wear Light Blue today.

Thursday ~ Another Libra Moon day and a variety of planetary aspects. Keep objectivity, boundaries and healthy detachment as needed. Breathe well through stress and remember to move your body even as a lot may take up your mind. Libra is a sign of music and dance, responding to sound and seeking gracefulness and harmony. It's a good day for a date and a decent day to deal with legal matters or major life plans. Try not to get too caught up in overthinking or what's possibly only in your mind. In other words, temper anxiety. Void Moon from 9:04 pm on. Wear Blue.

Friday ~ Scorpio Moon from 1:15 am ET and opposite Mars in Taurus at 5:06 am ET. This can set up some very stubborn situations and pit personalities against each other. Mars is newly in Taurus and we may find out about actions taken or planned and they may not 'sit right'. What to do, how to respond, is the question. Mercury may be helpful but also can be protective or defensive while in Cancer. Words may come out that way. Go easy today. Wear Black.

Saturday ~ Scorpio Moon trine to the Cancer Sun. Emotions may feel strong, yet also feel 'right' and appropriate. Feel your feelings. The Moon is opposite Uranus, which sometimes yields sudden moves or sudden emotions. Saturn is also square to the Moon. Squares mean there are things to work through and put effort into, and Saturn in Aquarius aims for the good of all. But it can be unyielding and difficult too. This is a very mixed day with a final aspect between the Moon and Neptune for a romantic or soothing evening. Wear Indigo Blue today.
