This Week's Moonscopes Forecast
For
the week of July 5 to July 11
(Missed last
week's forecast? Here it is.)
Sunday(*v/c-pm): the Moon is in
Sagittarius
Travel is one of the things that the astrological signs Gemini and
Sagittarius rule (are closely associated with). Gemini rules short distance
journeys and Sagittarius rules long distance journeys. Whether you are on a
short journey or a long journey or no journey at all this weekend, between the
Moon's void-of-course status and the upcoming Full Moon early this week, the
best place to be right now is at home or on your way back home.
Monday, Tuesday(Full
Moon/Lunar Eclipse), Wednesday
am(v/c): the Moon is in Capricorn
The Lunar
Eclipse in Capricorn this week and the Solar Eclipse in Cancer two weeks from
now focus on the internal world (Cancer) and the external world (Capricorn),
your inside the home base and your outside the home base. The effects of a set
of eclipses can last for about six months or until the next set of eclipses,
which will occur at the very end of this year and the beginning of 2010. During
this time, it would be good to take care of matters in both areas that will
secure a balanced foundation between the yin and yang energies in your
life.
Wednesday
pm,
Thursday, Friday: the Moon is in Aquarius
If something strange
or odd comes up (an Aquarian trait), its purpose is undoubtedly to shake up
a situation so that it can be viewed from a whole new perspective. Remember the
line from Monty Python - "And now for something completely different!" You can't
go wrong with Monty.
Saturday: the Moon is in Pisces
Usually this
astrological sign is filled with soft, subtle energy that supports an escape
from reality for a little while. However, with Saturn, the planet that insists
on reality at all times, being in an opposition placement to the Moon,
that might not be the case this weekend. On the other hand, Venus, a planet that
loves soft and subtle, is also in a strong connection to the Moon so this could
really be the case after all. One thing about Pisces, it's veiled in a misty,
illusive fog and you never know for sure which way things are going to go.
Check your
natal 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 a natal astrology chart? Click

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. 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 Mercury retrograde (to resume regular activities). Read More about Mercury Retrograde here
