Moonscopes - Weekly Horoscopes from the Lunar Point of View

Welcome to Moonscopes, featuring weekly horoscopes from the lunar point of view. The Moon travels through each astrological sign in about two and one-half days. Therefore, no matter what your sun sign is, we all experience the rhythms of the Moon on a regular basis. The Moon's travel timespan makes it the most logical planet on which to base a daily horoscope.

This Week's Moonscopes Forecast

For the week of July 25 to July 31
(Missed last week's forecast? Here it is.)

Sunday(*v/c): the Moon is in Capricorn
One phrase for Capricorn is hard work. Another phrase is acknowledging accomplishments. Since the Moon is void-of-course (v/c definition at bottom of page) this morning, the second phrase is more applicable. Notice how many more syllables are in the second phrase and how much more uplifting it sounds when you say it. So, pat yourself on the back for what you have done and mentally put on hold, for now, what might remain to be done.

late Sunday afternoon(Full Moon), Monday, Tuesday: the Moon is in Aquarius
A keyword for this sign is unpredictability, therefore it's not always easy to predict what might happen when we have this scenario. A good thing to do when the Moon is in Aquarius is to evaluate goals and long-term plans. That is something you can do no matter what comes up. Be sure to keep an open mind and a broad vision and to pay attention to your dreams.

Wednesday, Thursday: the Moon is in Pisces
Pisces likes to relax and escape from reality from time to time, well actually more often than that. Letting other people, or a higher level of awareness, take over something for awhile could be very beneficial to all concerned.

Friday, Saturday: the Moon is in Aries
Lots of aspects (connections between planets and asteroids) on Friday and lots to do this weekend. The aspects of Jupiter and Uranus to the Moon (currently in the same sign) especially are pushing you to go beyond the norm, outside of your comfort zone or usual mode of operating.

Check your astrology chart to find which house (section of your chart) has the current Moon sign on the cusp (the beginning edge) & apply Forecast information to that area of your life as well.
For example, the Moon is in Leo and one of the suggestions is to entertain - however Leo is located in the 12th house of your chart, which is an inward energy place...then have a small, quiet gathering. By contrast, if Leo is located in the 1st house of your chart, an outward energy place...have a party! Don't have an astrology chart? Click here .

It is interesting to note when the current Moon is in the same sign as your birth Moon and to see how the flavor of that day carries through the next 30 days.

Note: Timeframes for Moon signs, void-of-course periods, and current planet & asteroid positions are noted for Eastern time zone (USA). Please adjust according to your own location. Times are not given if the void-of-course Moon occurs for a very short period or if it occurs during the night (based on Eastern time zone).

* v/c = Void-of-Course - When the Moon is void-of-course, spend time working on projects already in progress, creative endeavors, or self-improvement. Void-of-course simply means that no planets are aspecting the Moon as it gets ready to change signs. It's best not to start new projects, sign important agreements, or go shopping when the Moon is void-of-course because the result will probably be unsatisfactory in some way.

** Mercury Retrograde - the speed of the planet slows down considerably. Communications, paperwork, electronics, and traffic can become very mixed-up or delayed during this time. A situation will be in the process of changing, so wait until Mercury is direct to finalize anything. In general, maintain a slower, more cautious pace in daily affairs. Always allow at least two days before (to slow down) and after (to resume regular activities) a Mercury retrograde period. Read More about Mercury Retrograde here
