This Week in Astrology: July 7th- Onwards
Written by Bela D., edited by Harley Ngyuen
Welcome to 2022’s Cancer Season, the second water sign of the year. Cancer season is described as a season of creating and building lifelong relationships. This is the time to take these relationships both platonic and romantic to the next level. Cancer is a water sign which is ruled by the Moon. The moon is known to be the deepest, most emotional, and most intimate planet. This energy is known for building a strong bond with others and yourself.
Moon Phase of the Week
July 7th- July 12th: The moon is in the Waxing Gibbous phase in the sign of Libra.
Moon Phases of the Week: On July 13th, the moon will transition into the beautiful Capricorn Full Moon. This moon will help you with financial and emotional growth, so look out for opportunities that could lead to this. Also, do not forget that full moons are one of the most powerful times to manifest whatever you need, so use this opportunity!
Planetary Zodiacs:
Sun: The Sun is in Cancer. This brings attention to our bank accounts. During this time you may feel moody and overwhelmed. You may also get carried away with materialistic things. So something to remember: are you spending time with the people you care about? Are your emotions clouding your judgments or decisions? This is the season to slowly get into the groove of working and to manage your time to surround yourself with the things you love.
Mercury: Currently, Mercury is in Cancer. This affects how we absorb information by making us moody to the people around us.
Venus: Venus is in Gemini which affects our social and romantic lives, and in this case, it makes it easier to communicate with others. You can feel more friendly and/or charming which will cause you to have this magnetic pull for people.
Mars: Mars is in Taurus which will make you more passive or negative when little obstacles get in your way. Your main priority is your material safety, predictability, and stability in all aspects of your life.
Key Aspects of the Week
For those who don't know: aspects are angles that determine how each planet's energies react with another planet's. They can affect an overall chart's meaning by giving more insight into how that planet behaves under its current zodiac sign.
Chiron Retrograde: July 19th, 2022 - December 23rd
This retrograde is going to strengthen your mental and physical health. This time is going to be a journey of self-love and self-care. This is the perfect opportunity to put yourself first and to start the healing from within.
