Full and Disseminating Moon

Monday July 22 This morning the gibbous Moon is still voiding herself of Capricorn and that sign’s tendency to stick with tried and true practices. During this time, however, we may feel less inclined to follow our regular routines. At 9:56 am, MT, the Sun moves into fun-loving Leo, and at 12:07 pm, the Moon soars into updating Aquarius. Eight minutes later we have a full Moon revealing what is no longer serviceable within our family system. The Aquarius part of us goes into observation mode with a critical eye for what works and what doesn’t. We may perceive how we’ve been repeating the same old pattern. Tuesday July 23 This Aquarius Moon offers a unique view of positive and negative aspects of some early personal conditioning. At 8:01 am, MT, the Moon goes void of course until noon tomorrow. While she is shaking off the detailed, inner knowledge which Aquarius collects, intuitive flashes of how to get rid of some existing behaviors float like clouds through our minds. By daydreaming about the shapes they can form, we can receive inspirations about how to gather and arrange the random insights of this Moon cycle into a new synthesis of our unfolding selves. Entertaining weird thoughts during a voiding Aquarius Moon can be surprisingly productive. Wednesday July 24 The Moon is voiding herself of Aquarius all morning, like clouds shutting out the blue sky. We might find ourselves retreating into the mists of our minds, trying to get clear images of inspirations or airy-fairy ideas. At 12:22 pm, MT, the Moon moves into the instinctive, passive reactions of Pisces. Past relationships with people of similar beliefs can help us tend to present details which can lead to a deeper expression of transcending antiquated behaviors. Concerns about purpose and destiny appear. Some of us can be perplexed by this, some depressed, and others excited by the wisdom available. Thursday July 25 With this Pisces Moon comes a keenness of perception which some may want to use in thoughtful conversation while others may keep their observations to themselves. At 12:43 pm, MT, the Moon goes void of course, rinsing off the un-established limits of Pisces with no end in sight until tomorrow afternoon. Instability can take over, and many may want to escape reality. Meditating or contemplating on how to redeem some intolerable circumstances may render solutions. At 6:58 pm, the Moon enters her disseminating phase, a period full of “a-ha” moments, the fruits of pondering a problem! Friday July 26 The Moon is still voiding herself of vulnerable Pisces until mid-afternoon. Self-doubt or martyrdom can prevail during this time. Some of us may settle for less than is possible, and others may sacrifice for those in hardships. At 3:29 pm, MT, the Moon moves into go-getter Aries. Feelings are energized to overcome passivity and do what it takes to navigate through a tough initiation of behavior which leads to a better expression of life than that of our 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. Weekend July 27 This courageous, sometimes reckless, Aries Moon displays a resourcefulness at dealing with a bothersome problem. Some may rush into a fray for the sake of changes, yet leave if they don’t like the direction it’s taking. At the least, it’s only fair to hear out all sides. Then some meaningful action can be taken. For Aries life is, after all, an enterprise full of glowing prospects. At 8:19 pm, MT, Saturday, the Moon goes void of course until Sunday night. While she is snuffing out the daring of Aries on Sunday, it’s best to go with the flow, no matter how impatient one feels to act independently. Toleration is a needed virtue.
