Monday, JULY 5

The Moon spends much of the day (until 9:24 PM EDT) in the sign of steady Taurus, after which it moves into adaptable Gemini. The Sun forms a sextile to Uranus today, stimulating our willingness to adapt to new circumstances, ideas, and unfamiliar situations. Group connections can be enlightening, and we’ll do the best for ourselves if we embrace flexibility and innovation. We might arrive at creative solutions to problems and make happy improvements now. Spirits are high, and we’re excited about change.

As the day advances, a Mercury-Neptune square comes into influence. This transit first occurred in May, recurred while Mercury was retrograde in June, and its final perfection occurs now. Conversations and situations we encountered then can return to our attention now. However, it’s not easy to follow facts, directions, and instructions–we can be distracted, or we may hear/interpret them incorrectly.

The void Moon occurs from 12:57 PM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a trine to Pluto), until the Moon enters Gemini at 9:24 PM EDT.
