First Quarter and Gibbous Moon

June 29 Monday
The Libra Moon entered her first quarter phase at 5:28 am, MT. At this point in the cycle we need to move in a different direction or change our orientation if we want revelations about questions raised last week. Our actions this week need to be primarily about essentials, disregarding the cosmetics and pretences while looking for the basics. Practical exploration guided by the inner critical appraisal of Libra can light upon the heart of something or someone. With Libra we can embellished upon that core without disturbing its integrity and inner harmony.

June 30 Tuesday
With this Libra Moon we may easily respond to unusual demands that require agility. The only thing that may thwart our actions are moments of intensified clarity illuminating specifics in the bigger picture of our lives that jolt us into seeing them in a new context. These seconds of overexposure reveal hidden meanings. At 3:59 pm, MT, the Moon goes void of course, lifting off the reconciling energies of Libra until 10:19 pm. During this time we may have difficulty singling out the meanings of today’s insights as our minds wander in a mental labyrinth.

July 1 Wednesday
With the Scorpio Moon we can travel deeply into our inner reality while lingering in our outer activity to feel the emotional impact of what we are doing. Along with these feelings our thoughts may be actively collecting data for evaluating the larger picture of our live. Energy to proceed is abundant but only effective if used to create what one’s heart wants. By resonating to the heart beneath the outer behavior, we may leap full speed into our lives and avoid floundering. This may involve verbalizing feelings and sensitizing thoughts about the complexity of our common humanity.

July 2 Thursday
The Scorpio Moon is in a fiery fluid mood today, eager to turn the world upside down. Scorpio is driven to find solutions, often by ferreting out and laying bare all of the essential facts. This energy can bring up confrontations having to do with how one interprets the truth. Argumentative moods may be rampant. Some of us may become more defensive or more assertive. Fighting may be an option and a good one if it’s to prove something for yourself, not to boost your ego or do harm.

July 3 Friday
Moon is voiding herself of tough Scorpio until 8:11 am, MT, when she moves into self-sufficient Sagittarius. Earlier in the morning the Moon entered her gibbous phase. From now to Tuesday’s full Moon it is best to get in a gear that brings together everything learned about oneself lately and that works with that knowledge to uncover a broader understanding of self. The work of the day may be to alter one’s perception of the past. Listen to MoonWise tomorrow on the worldwide web at ksfr.org from 2:00 to 2:30 pm, MT, for the weekend Moon Minute.

July 4 Saturday
The Sagittarius Moon loves a holiday! It reflects the inner freedom to travel on the wild side. Saturday begins with flare ups and cover ups. The challenge is to make them part of the birthday celebration for the USA. Imagine tensions being released and bringing dramatic comebacks that erupt in the traditional fireworks. Sunday ideas can burst into awareness for forming a greater vision of oneself. The Moon goes void of course at 1:17 pm, MT, Sunday, dousing the celebratory mood of boisterous Sagittarius. Happy Birthday USA!
