Monday, the Moon remains in detail-oriented, practical Virgo all day; it will journey there until tonight/Tuesday very early morning, turning our focus toward the practical and wholesome.
We are generous with our time and services and love to help others. We also have a fondness for science and anything that makes sense in our world — things and knowledge we can apply and use.
Health might also come into focus at this time. We notice the parts that make up the whole; this is a great time to see if our daily routines (eating, work, self-care, etc.) align with our long-term goals.
Monday early afternoon, an opportune Venus/Chiron aspect becomes exact at 12:55pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from Saturday evening (July 26th) on; it will remain strong until Wednesday early morning (July 30th).
This is an opportunity to bring healing to our wounds around relationships or our sense of self-worth. We get a chance to love ourselves and heal deep fears of not being “good enough”.
Healing happens much faster when we can open to forgiving ourselves and others. As best as you can, bring compassion and understanding to yourself, to others, and to those past experiences that wounded you.
Ask yourself: How might an honest conversation support my healing journey at this time? Who might I want to have such a conversation with?
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 25-29 degrees of Gemini, Aries, Leo or Aquarius? If so, you will be more aware of this opportunity. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Taurus or Libra (Venus is the ruler of Taurus and Libra).
Monday at 8:57pm EDT, we enter a Moon VoC that will last for almost 5 hours, until 1:43am EDT (Tuesday very early morning – July 29th). Use this intuitive time to be precise and practical in your thinking and with your work, and you also want to connect, interact and learn from others.
This tension invites you to stretch a little and resolve it through creative solutions — the key here is to be of service, so you don’t drive yourself or others crazy.
You may feel a little scatterbrained or all over the map. As best as you can, stay flexible — and don’t be too hard on yourself!
As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan for Monday evening through early Tuesday in advance.
