Full
Moon Bookends
By
Cheney Hall
July begins on a heightened emotional level with a full Moon in Capricorn
on the 2nd. This energy will give us the urge to be organized, practical
and disciplined in some manner. Mercury majestically parades into Leo
on the 4th. We will celebrate Independence Day by creatively, proudly
and dynamically expressing ourselves, and continue to express ourselves
this way throughout the month. The new Moon in Cancer on the 17th would
be an excellent time to begin projects that satisfy us emotionally and
provide nurturing. The Sun  flamboyantly
enters self-confident, powerful, playful Leo on the 22nd. We turn our
attention towards creative self-expression to fulfill our need to be
on center stage! Mercury meticulously enters Virgo on the 25th. Our
mindset becomes more analytical, organized and skillful. Be forewarned
Mercury turns retrograde on August 5th! July ends with a second full
Moon on the 31st. This is referred to as a Blue Moon. In the sign of
Aquarius, it will enlighten our inner need to create social change.
Cancer (Jun. 21st - Jul. 22nd)
Happy Birthday, you tender, caring, nurturing crustaceans! Your new
astrological year begins with Saturn still teaching you to look inward
for honest self-evaluation in order to deal with shortcomings and weaknesses.
Partnership/ relationship issues may be revealed on the 2nd. Pay attention
this month to what you value in life – materially, intellectually,
and spiritually. Negotiations with others concerning money or property
may begin. Loved ones may need your care. Charitable activities promote
soul growth. Avoid the urge to make unwise and impulsive purchases,
and the tendency to force your beliefs on others. Month's end may
reveal emotional experiences more intense than usual.
Leo (Jul. 22nd - Aug. 22nd)
Do you dynamic lions feel as though you've been in a fog? It begins
to clear by mid month. Then you'll have a lot to communicate. Make
use of that extra burst of energy as Mars continues transiting your
birth sign until August 10th. It will be about 22 months before you
get that extra burst again. Be careful not to roar too loudly! Activities
with groups and with friends are increased this month. Social life is
enhanced – invitations may be numerous. Interaction with women
may occur often. Many of you are still working on your spirituality
