    Virgo is service orientated and takes note of all the details… she can be overly critical… just as much of herself, as she is of others.

  • A good time to take care of our health, opt for a better diet or begin an exercise regime. 
  • Pets or situations involving pets may be on the agenda… Some folks may even adopt a pet during this time.
  • It is easier to see how hard work can pay off in the short-term, so be prepared to roll up those sleeves… ;)
  • Some folk may be prone to taking on too much, (you know who you are ;) ) Take extra care not to take on more than you can handle, and don’t forget to delegate when possible. No one has to do everything… :) 
  • Watch out for accidents, especially if rushing around, handling sharp knives or exercising..
  • Take time out for some relaxation and fun… And while we are all subtly affected by this “event” those with the following in thier charts will be affected the most… Those who have strong Pisces in thier charts will also feel the affects stronger than most… 
    • Sun in Virgo
    • Mars in Virgo
    • Aspects to the Sun, Moon or Mars:
    • Mars in the 6th house.
    • Moon in Aries
    • Sun in Aries

Astrology and how it affects our daily lives: Chrion goes retrograde July 8 2019

Astro-Seek.com
On July 8th 2019 Chiron (The wounded healer) goes retrograde in the sign of Aries: Chrion remains retrograde until December 12 2019.
 
This could prove to be a challenging time for some of us…and we are encouraged to take note of the challenges, what area of life are they occuring in…?

Most likely, said challenges will have to do with our self-confidence, ego and sense of self…

As with any retrograde motion, it is better to work with the energy, then to work against it….Take some time over the next few months to do some self healing work… try not to pass blame for mistakes past and present on others… ask yourself if you are being truthful to YOU… find what needs to and can be fixed and take action to do so…. accept what cannot be changed and leave it behind…

Take care not to become overly assertive or aggressive with others if you are of a bold nature… On the other hand if you aren’t usually of a bold nature… now may be your time to shine and “tidy” up emotional messes in your life so you can finally move on…

The Moon and Astrology

How it affects our daily lives… 

In astrology, the moon is connected to our emotions and reactions… how we are feeling on a given day may well be influenced by the sign that is visiting the moon… Each sign stays with the moon for up to 2.5 days…. :) 

The Moon Void-of-Course: 

There are times throughout the month when the moon is not fully immersed in any sign… this is when we say the moon is Void of Course… and when this occurs, we may feel “foggy” and “unfocused” … We may not be sure how we are truly feeling about a situation or a person…. Therefore it is not recommended that we make long-term commitments or important decision’s while the moon is Void of Course…. However there are 4 signs in the zodiac which may prove positive during the Void-of-Course moon… 

Good for Void-Of-Course Moon:

These v/c signs may prove to be quite productive times.

  • Cancer
  • Taurus
  • Sagittarius
  • Pisces…

Opportunity Periods  (thanks to astrologer Jim Shawvan):

There are other periods throughout the month that are known as opportunity periods, when it can prove to be a positive time for most people, however if you have challenging aspects happening within your own chart you may not be able to make use of opportunity periods. 

Thanks to Jim Shawvan present day astrologer, William Lilly 17th century astrologer and Llewellyn’s Daily Planetary Guide for opportunity periods.

Astrology, and how it affects our daily life: Venus moves into the sign of Cancer: July 2019

Venus moves into the Sign of Cancer on July 3rd 2019

Time: 11:18 am (ET) 8:18 am (PT)

By Salvadorova


What does this mean?

  • Venus is the planet of beauty and money… She rules Taurus and Libra
  • Cancer is ruled by the Moon and is connected to the 4th house of domestic affairs and family.
  • We can be more nurturing and protective of and towards our loved ones…. However, we can also be on the defensive when it comes to our own personal safety.
  • Venus is naturally cautious, as she visits with sensitive Cancer, we may feel her indecisions, making as all a little more cautious when it comes to day to day dealings.
  • Romance may be on the books for some of us… take care though, and expect some emotional ups and downs as you move through the month with your special someone.
  • Cancer, loves to take care of her family and loved ones… it’s time for some tender moments, to be dedicated, kind and supportive to those around us… Family members and loved ones may receive special attention for the next few weeks…. :)
  • Take care not to be too clingy or needy, a little bit of cuddles and attention can go a long way… ;)
  • Keep in mind that Venus is about relationships and feeling/looking our best, while knowing we are safe and secure… And Cancer, being ruled by the Moon is a sensitive sign, she can over react to situations or harsh words, she needs to be loved and to love…. This combination may indicate some challenging times when it comes to close personal relationships… If this is the case, take time out to think before speaking, communication is the key to understanding each other… The timing of such communication is important, and should not be attempted while tired, angry or frustrated.
  • Feeling safe and secure within our surroundings and relationships helps us to put our best foot forward.

This Astrological influence will affect us all, but those with personal Venus or Cancer chart influences will be affected the most.

  • The Sun in Libra or Taurus
  • The Sun in Cancer
  • The Moon in Libra, Taurus or Cancer
  • Venus in Libra, Taurus or Cancer
  • Venus/Libra/Taurus in the 2nd or 7th house
  • Cancer/Moon in the 4th house
  • Any aspects to the Moon from Venus, from Venus to the Moon
  • Any aspects from the 2nd or 7th house to the 4th house
