Emotions
will really run the gamut during the month of July because it is a blue moon
month, one of those rare months when we experience two full moons. The first full moon occurred in 10 degrees of
Capricorn on July 1st. The
second full moon will occur on July 31st in 8 degrees of Aquarius.
The
time was really ripe for emotional outbursts on July 1st because this
full moon involved Mars in Cancer conjunct the Sun and opposing the moon in
Capricorn, which conjuncted Pluto. And
the Sun. Moon, and Mars all squared the nodes of the moon. What does that add up to? One major theme is resolving karmic issues.
On
July 1st I tweeted:
Intense #FullMoon today as it conjuncts Pluto, opposes Mars & squares the nodes. Emotional outbursts highly likely but transformative.
Venus Jupiter conjunction in Leo today lightens tone of #FullMoon by boosting our confidence and expanding our zest for life.#astrology
Mars in
Cancer formed a T-square with the nodes of the moon in Libra and Aries, so resolution
of old family issues may have been another theme with this full moon. The full moon in Capricorn conjunct Pluto
packed quite a wallop because it was bound to involve issues regarding goals
and reaping what we have sown. The fact
that the Sun and Mars were in Cancer lent an Aries vibe which made us restless
and seeking resolution.
This was an
extremely complex full moon which contained a plethora of complicated issues
which could have triggered highly codependent behavior. Independence versus interdependence was front
and center, as was control versus acceptance and the fact that many of us may
have experienced the downside of hiding our feelings instead of allowing
ourselves to experience them in order to transform us. It is said that a full moon can reveal, and
with this full moon a strong theme was to get some clarity on emotional issues.
A Capricorn
full moon involves a conflict between our financial/career needs with our
personal and family needs. Pretty potent
stuff, n’est pas? That Capricorn full
moon urged us to firm up our resolve and grow in authenticity while somehow making
peace with our personal relationships and our relationships with
authority. This is easier said than done
for many of us. This full moon conjuncted my north node in
Capricorn and opposed my south node in Cancer, so I can definitely relate to
its themes.
Personally,
I have come to realize that while it’s good that I have been devoting a great
deal of time and energy to building my business (Capricorn north node), I may
be emotionally burning out from the effort.
It is summer, after all, and I came to the conclusion that it might be
more beneficial for me to relax my incessant need to control the growth of my
business during the summer and spend some time recharging by being with people
I care about. Perhaps I have neglected
that south node in Cancer which needs a little nurturing and relaxation. That south node is in my 9th
house, and I am even contemplating taking a little trip soon. Taking better care of myself and attending to
my emotional needs might even make me more inspired when I decide to tackle
that next phase of developing my business.
I’ve also changed my hours for my morning Reiki practice so that I get
to sleep in an extra hour and be available for more clients who would benefit
from a Reiki treatment on their lunch hour.
As intense
as this full moon was, we had some pretty nice aspects on that day to offset
the intensity. Venus was conjunct Jupiter in Leo, which certainly lightened
things up. And Neptune in Pisces was
trining the Cancer Sun and Mars, which helped to cushion any blows. Neptune also sextiled that full moon, which isn’t
too shabby, either. So Neptune stepped
up to soften the impact, along with Venus and Jupiter. Hopefully, this helped to put us all in a
festive mood for the 4th of July holiday.
