Sunday, JULY 12

The Moon continues its transit of Gemini until 6:46 PM EDT, when it moves into Cancer. Our stores of compassion and imagination are readily accessible, and we’re open to latching onto something that inspires us this evening.

However, the inferior conjunction of the Sun and Mercury occurs today, marking the middle of the Mercury retrograde phase. We get a unique window into the past as it might impact our future. It’s an important time for new ideas, although they’re very new and raw at this “birthing” stage.

There is an awakening happening at this time as we release old patterns and begin anew. It’s a good time to process recent events and ideas, and to begin looking at problems or issues from a new perspective and understanding, mainly related to home, family, and nurture.

Significant new ideas are born at this time, and they’re likely to have staying power or significance down the road. What we say or write now has more impact than usual.

Still, we may not have all the facts necessary to reach a solid conclusion, and we might later have to revise our plans or decisions.

The Sun approaches a parallel to Mars today, strengthening our resolve and quickening our reactions. This transit increases energy and enterprise.

The Moon continues its void period today until the Moon enters Cancer at 6:46 PM EDT.
