The month starts with Mercury-Pluto's sometimes paranoid or obsessive opposition, but also great for empowering, deep conversations. On July 5th is an emotionally supportive and empathic New Moon in Cancer trine Saturn in Pisces, which adds a layer of responsibility and spiritual growth. This aspect encourages reflection on emotional foundations and the establishment of new, solid structures in one’s personal and professional life. It promotes taking a practical approach to managing emotions and relationships and to applying symbols and signs in a pragmatic way towards greater commitments, healing, and accomplishments achieved gently.

There are no overtly challenging aspects to this New Moon, so the energy feels softer and comfier. Venus' close proximity to the New Moon and also coming off her trine to Saturn brings themes related to stabilizing love, artistic creation, and abundance. This alignment suggests favorable outcomes in home decor, finding a comfortable living space, and enhancing relationships, especially providing greater caregiving, nurturing, intimacy, and nourishment towards those we love, while strengthening personal, familial, and professional bonds.

It's a great moon and moonth to remember with nostalgic savoring to ponder the fond memories. You can use Google or Apple photos to remember, reflect, and appreciate. There is an entire genre of Memoir writing dedicated to using photography as prompts for our souls to re-member - to stitch the delicate puzzle pieces of our life-as-teacher back together.
