New to Crescent Moon

Monday July 13 Joining this Gemini Moon, we may feel eager to jump into a new phase of activity but may find it hard to decide on what that is. It feels like we’re lost or disoriented in a strange reality. Adventurous advancement will come by picking up on vital or charged signs and following them. Progress is increased by giving voice to suggestions which match inner longings. There also needs to be a commitment to align with the higher harmony which brings together the experiences of one’s life, combining the archetypal and experiential levels of one’s life. This relationship requires work. Later tonight the Moon leaves Gemini for nesting in Cancer. Tuesday July 14 This hidden Cancer Moon is brewing up all sorts of magical expressions of love and beauty. The balsamic Moon isn’t even seen in the darkness of night, but she’s there, having a fully emotional experience of what the inner self is most attentive to. We, too, during the day as we focus on gathering the resources we need, can use our emotions as a measure of what’s most agreeable to us. Today, it should be easy to articulate feelings for which words are often inept. There’s also a spirit of goodwill and appreciation in exchanges with others. Cancer has a natural clannish feeling drawing people together. Wednesday July 15 With this Cancer Moon there can be deep inner turmoil. Emotions can be charged to expect the worst. Resolving this tension can be done by following one’s gut feelings and working out kinks and deficiencies to the point of succeeding in making circumstances palatable. This may include raw honesty in critiquing, flattering, cajoling, or even flirting. At 7:24 pm, MT, we have a new Moon beginning a cycle about inclusivity and balancing emotional needs under certain circumstances. First impressions may be inadequate responses to the impulses which emerge during this new Moon phase. Thursday July 16 This Cancer Moon suggests we let our conscience be our guide in making decisions this morning. At 5:24 am, MT, the Moon went void of course for almost three hours of washing off Cancer’s protectiveness. It seems like boundaries have been swept away as well, leaving us to think that we can do anything and everything, but we can’t. At 8:15 am, the Moon moves into exuberant Leo awakening urges to imprint unique images of the circumstances in our lives mimicking this zodiac sign. If you don’t know what part of your chart that is, just pay attention to what it is about you that you want others to notice. Friday July 17 This Leo Moon brings out playfulness and feistiness. There are urges to arouse others to engage in shedding normal inhibitions and sharing some good times. It’s a day for rash, unorthodox behavior. If you find yourself involved in some unusual group participation or refusing to join in, your reactions may be a clue about a habit related to inclusivity. Leo can be generous and can sometimes have a taste for the unusual, for a grand spectacle, but sometimes wants to be passive like a voyeur. Weekend July 18 and 19 This Leo Moon is accompanied by adventurous and self-sufficient feelings. We may need the latter to get through some rough spots today. Mood swings can be noticeable. It’s best to aim for the middle ground. At 3:41 pm, MT, the Moon goes void of course for three hours of letting the passions of Leo burn out. Relax! At 6:47 pm, the Moon moves into tidy and proper Virgo. While Virgo has a reputation of being neat, some impulses call for unconventional organizing. On Sunday we might want an overview of how we categorize our social involvement. At 6:54 pm, Sunday, the Moon enters her crescent phase, when a new element grabs our attention and we need to martial emotional force to pursue it. Monday July 20 Under this Virgo Moon we may be opening up to several influences which can assist in advancing our nurturing skills. Virgo can have a tendency to be somewhat withdrawn or stand-offish, holding out against impositions or intrusions. Part of this is due to wanting to meet expectations or do a good job. Being agreeable and compliant is important today. To be responsible it’s important to pay extra attention to all details. Relationships are included as long as they are a part of an assigned task. Otherwise, the Virgo in us is busy with the mechanics of the job at hand. With such a focus some connections and choices will be made. Tuesday July 21 Early this morning the Moon began to shed herself of discerning Virgo. At 7:23 am, MT, she moves into the high standards and expectations of Libra. The Libra moon usually behaves in socially acceptable ways. What this sign deeply wants is to be accepted and knows all the protocol prescribed for achieving that. A key relationship for polished behavior today is that between teacher and student. Individuals who provide inner knowledge about the interfaces of our personal and interpersonal lives stand out. By playing the role of the master or disciple or both, we can find out what’s truly important for us at this time.
