Thursday, JULY 17

The Last Quarter Moon phase occurs today, marked by the Sun in Cancer forming a square to the Moon in Aries. This phase signifies a shift in our perception of recent events, as we begin to see them in a more mature light. The next few days are opportune for reassessing matters from a more experienced viewpoint. However, it’s important to note that we might feel temporarily tense or conflicted. The Moon transits Aries all day.

A Mars-Pluto connection today stirs hidden angers and frustrations, but can also lead to the discovery of our deeper desires or ambitions. This transit suggests a deeper investment in outcomes, as well as potential tensions if we don’t get our way. This transit adds an additional layer of pressure to the day, as we can be distracted. Still, it also presents an opportunity for us to overcome Pluto-related worries, concerns, and challenges.

Mercury will station and turn retrograde shortly into the day tomorrow.

The Moon is void from 8:38 PM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a square to the Sun), until the Moon enters Taurus the next day, on Friday, July 18th, at 3:59 AM EDT.
