Astrology Forecast July 12 – 18, 2021
Today’s Leo Moon will fill us with high spirits and a carefree attitude. The Moon’s conjunction with Venus in Leo may add a sentimental streak to our mood, while the conjunction with Mars in Leo adds some passion to the mix. However, be careful not to become temperamental or give in to moodiness. The optimism and lighthearted effervescence of Mercury in Cancer trine Jupiter in Pisces will fortunately help to counteract such negativity.
Tuesday and Wednesday’s Virgo Moon will inspire us to update our wardrobes, surroundings, and electronics, as it makes organizing and refreshing things a priority.
We can’t go wrong with a two-day ‘staycation’ under Thursday and Friday’s Libra Moon, which promotes balance, aesthetic awareness, and an open-minded attitude. You are likely to feel cheerful and spontaneous. It is the perfect time to socialize (safely and responsibly) and reconnect with loved ones.
Romance will also be a priority, so it might be a good idea to move the weekend’s date night up to Thursday evening. Surprise your partner with a romantic movie night or picnic under the stars. And if you are ready to propose then the Moon sextile Venus in Leo, in the early hours of Friday morning, creates the perfect opportunity for love, commitment and marriage.
Over the weekend the Moon drifts through Scorpio, reminding us that life is short and we should enjoy it to the fullest! We can leave chores behind and indulge in our favorite pastimes, as we honor our intuition and go with the flow. Beware however the potential for ‘Sunday blues’ with the Scorpio Moon square Saturn in Aquarius, which brings with it the energy of dissatisfaction and depression.
Astrology Forecast July 5 – 11, 2021
Our best bet for getting anything productive done this week will be under today’s Taurus Moon moving into Gemini this evening. The rest of the week will however unfold under a veil of emotional confusion and the tendency to go hide in our Cancer shells. The Moon in Taurus has been making us more success-driven, while the Moon in the Gemini tends to sharpen our mental faculties. We are more awake this afternoon and looking for new experiences and impressions. This is a good time for all kinds of communication, contacts, training, and learning.
We’ll need to watch for gossip or misinformation on Tuesday and Wednesday, as the Gemini Moon inspires people to share without the facts or make comments that could be taken the wrong way. Our best bet during this phase is to watch and listen, rather than advising or sharing our opinions.
Beware the Gemini Moon square Jupiter in Pisces tomorrow, as it can get us into trouble with the authorities or invite legal problems. Be sure to follow the rules and comply with regulations. Conflict and drama could also surface in romantic relationships, so mind your P’s and Q’s when interacting with your partner or that new love interest.
The Moon will dive into emotional Cancer on Thursday, culminating in a Cancer New Moon on Friday. If you feel the urge to hide out under the covers or draw the drapes and take the phone off the hook, it’s not a bad idea, as feelings are easily hurt and self-doubt or confusion can make it difficult to interact with the rest of the world. On an up note, this time of isolation will give us a chance to go deep within and revisit our spiritual centers, clearing out whatever messages or ideas aren’t working while encouraging us to trust our intuition more readily.
Sunday’s Leo Moon will have us feeling more like ourselves, ready to face the world again, and thanks to Mercury’s entry into Cancer, encouraging us to share from the heart and soul.
Astrology Forecast June 21 – 27, 2021
The planets are playing musical chairs with abandon this week as we experience an significant astrological event almost every day!
The annual summer solstice for the Northern Hemisphere occurred yesterday, marking the start of summer this week (winter in the southern hemisphere) as the Sun moves into Cancer.
Mercury will resume forward motion tomorrow, setting the tone for a new cycle and focus for the next three months.
We also have a Full Moon in Capricorn on Thursday. This Full Moon in particular will bring out our need for security and stability, encouraging us to find new ways to limit unnecessary financial expenditures and to set a more financially grounded budget for the future.
Neptune turns retrograde on Friday and will inspire us over the next five months to pay more attention to our true passions and deepest desires. Neptune retrograde is a subtle influence of self-reflection and increased self-awareness, as well as greater introspection and turning our dreams and ideals into reality.
And if that isn’t enough planetary action for the week, Venus will move into the sign of Leo on Sunday, encouraging us to express ourselves more freely as it dances through this dramatic fire sign for the next three and a half weeks.
By the way, beware the Aquarius Moon opposition Mars in Leo on Sunday, as it can cause us to act impulsively and overspend. Disagreements with your partner may also be more likely with this aspect, so keep your cool and act responsibly.
Astrology Forecast June 7 – 13, 2021
The second of two eclipses occurs this week. On Thursday the Gemini New Moon will manifest as a solar eclipse. For the next two weeks, we’ll be focused on our emotional well-being and inner peace, as we using the New Moon energy to create new ways of expressing ourselves and processing our feelings.
Be careful not to give in to unnecessary moodiness and irritability this week. It is recommended we stay grounded and centered today, as the constellation of the Taurus Moon conjunction with Uranus, also in Taurus, can lead to a lack of inner harmony and emotional balance and even cause us to act unreasonably, or behave in a peculiar way that is out of character from our normal habits.
By the time the Sun moves into Cancer on June 21st, our ability to move with our intuition and inner knowings will be at an all time high. Before this transition occurs, we can use today and tomorrow’s Taurus Moon to get our most important projects off the ground and set a course for greater achievements over the coming months, enhanced by Mars’ move into power-filled Leo on Friday. Mars will spend the next two months encouraging us to quit hiding our lights under a barrel and express our dreams and true selves for all the world to see.
The Moon will saunter through Cancer Friday and Saturday, focusing our attention on home, family, security, and comfort. If your plans include being a couch-potato after a trying two weeks, you’ll have the full support of the planets. Take advantage though, as Sunday’s Aries Moon will have us back up and running, though the paths we choose will be filled with social fun or athletic pursuits.
Astrology Forecast May 31 – June 6, 2021
There’s not a lot of astrological movement this week as we enter the month of June, so take some time to reflect and regenerate as the energies of the next few days unfold.
Today’s Aquarius Moon will have us continuing the social chatter we started yesterday, encouraging us to connect with people we’ve lost track of or follow up on a recent conversation.
The Aquarius Moon trine Mercury in Gemini today also heightens our ability to learn new things and exercise good judgment. Today is a great time to take on that daunting project that you have been putting off. You may just be amazed how easily you can figure it out!
The Moon travels through Pisces tomorrow through Thursday, slowing outer movement and calling for internal focus and simplified days.
Venus will move into Cancer on Wednesday, another event that will turn our attention to our emotions and home lives. Loving ourselves more is a theme of Venus as she travels through Cancer, so take some time out for a spa day or to catch up on movies or books that have been waiting for your attention.
We’ll come back to life Friday and Saturday as the Moon marches into assertive Aries, where we can attend unfinished business and restore balance to our worlds.
Sunday’s Taurus Moon adds power to our physical movements, inspiring a clearing out of closets, reviewing finances, or digging in the garden. Whatever we decide to spend Sunday doing, a hands-on approach will serve us well. If you need a little extra help with your finances, the Taurus Moon sextile with Jupiter in Pisces creates the perfect opportunity on Sunday to generate new ideas to increase your income. Use this lunar energy on Sunday to set intentions for manifesting success and prosperity.
Fun Facts You Never Knew About Your Zodiac Sign
The zodiac signs we are born under afford us certain personality traits, talents and gifts in our lifetime. Over the course of one’s life you can typically see these traits in an individual’s personality and life choices.
Astrology has been around for centuries and offer us a special insight into our life path. The Zodiac signs can be a lot of fun to investigate, even for the lay person. If you look closely at the traits of your own sign you will most likely discover many accurate descriptions of your personality in your sign that may be hard to deny.
You may also come across certain traits and fun nuggets of information that may surprise you. For example, it has been noted by astrologers that some of the zodiac signs tend to lean more towards having stronger psychic ability. These are known as the so-called ‘psychic signs,’ namely Cancer, Pisces, Scorpio and Libra.
If you were born under one of these signs, but do not consider yourself psychic, then you may want to take another look. It could be that you are more gifted than you realize, but you are not making proper use of your psychic talents.
Another fun principal of astrology centers on those who are born on the cusp between two signs, meaning they have trails of both signs. For example, those born on April 19 or 20 on the Aries-Taurus Cusp are literally ‘born leaders’ because they have the natural leadership traits of Aries combined with the inner strength and bullish perseverance of Taurus.
Another interesting ‘born leader’ is the Pisces-Aries Cusp born March 19 to 26. They strike the perfect balance between being a dreamer and idealist, while also being a determined, tough, and sometimes highly opinionated ‘go-getter.’ They bring the best of both worlds to innovative leadership positions that require imagination and an unconventional approach.
Astrology Forecast April 19 – 25, 2021
Today the Sun moves into Taurus, the sign that will inspire us to manifest our dreams over the next four weeks. Creative ideas will turn into tangible movement and we’ll have the power to reclaim our physical and financial balance.
Later today, Mercury will also join the Sun in Taurus, adding our logical and practical sides to this creative energy for the next couple of weeks. Problem-solving will become child’s play and accessing the information we need will be as easy as typing the issue into a search engine. Today’s Moon-Neptune Trine will further stimulate our creative impulses and imagination!
The Moon will travel through Leo on Tuesday and Wednesday, calling for us to make ourselves the priority. If we’ve been lacking in self-care, now is the time to regroup and put our own needs first. If you are highly sensitive, especially take heed the Leo Moon in opposition to Saturn in Aquarius on Wednesday, as it can trigger a low mood, or even sadness, loneliness or depression. If such feelings arise, reach out to someone you trust and remind yourself that you are never alone. There are kind people in this world who care.
Detailed work is best done on Thursday and Friday under the meticulous Virgo Moon. On Thursday Mars will move into the sign of Cancer, which tends to slow outer movement and direct us to work on our inner selves for the next two months.
Regrouping and restoring balance will be the theme this weekend as the Moon dances through Libra and illuminates where our focus needs to be; mainly on our relationships and personal surroundings.
