You
Who are the source of all power,
Whose rays illuminate the world,
Illuminate also my heart
So that it too can do Your work.

**I will be off the island until the 23rd, so my dailies may be late or missed. ** I'll do my best to keep things up to date! We have a huge middle and end of July! I'm excited for the aspects! This is once-in-a-lifetime energy, so make the most of it! Take a break and recalibrate. We are considering our options, and although this isn't the time to make life-altering decisions, it is a time to make/consider plans.
The Moon is waning, decreasing in light, asking us to spend more time in reflection, contemplation, and to turn inward. This is a great time to get more rest and ramp up protection work.
Venus is wrapping up in Leo today. Planets at the end of a sign embody all the wisdom and lessons of the entire sign. It can also signify some drama, so pick your battles.
Venus will enter Virgo, her sign of fall, this afternoon.
I like Venus in Virgo; she's detail-oriented, frugal, and knows how to get the best deal. She's a working woman! This is a fated Venus in Virgo time, because Venus will conjunct the South Node in Virgo as she enters Virgo. We are being asked to surrender and release a way of being that is no longer suitable for us. It's ideal for lifestyle or dietary changes! Venus is now answering to Mercury Rx in Cancer, so she's also feeling more sensitive and sentimental.
We are building up to the Sun-Mercury Rx Cazimi on Sunday night! This marks the halfway point of the Mercury Rx Season! This Mercury Rx has been glitchy! As Mercury Rx builds up to the conjunction with the Sun, it is considered combust, or "burnt" by the Sun. This can strain communication. Things feel unclear and confusing. The Cazimi marks a still point, when Mercury is in the "Heart of the Sun." Mercury is protected, purified, and reborn during the exact moment of the Cazimi. This is a sacred moment; honor it and listen to messages and omens that are coming through for you now. The noise and drama in the outer world are loud this week. Mercury is in Cancer, the sign of home, family, mothers, and children. Focus on these areas, and of course, self-care!
Mercury is retrograde.
Slow down, review, revise, and revisit the past 3 months. This is an extremely nostalgic and sensitive time. Be gentle with yourself and others. We are communicating from a sensitive place. Cry, sleep, make soups, and focus on home and family dynamics.
We are now getting messages and information that we will be working with over the Mercury Rx. Mercury always gives a warning before causing problems, so if we're paying attention, we can act before the Mercury Rx snafus trip us up! We get flat tires, broken-down vehicles, broken appliances, or communication fallouts when we ignore the warning signs trying to get our attention.
This retrograde is a sensitive one. All the Mercury Rx's this year are in the Water signs. This one is tender, nostalgic, sentimental, sensitive, emotional, instinctual, and self-protective.
We are being asked to do all the re- words: review, revise, revisit, restore, rejuvenate. Mercury Rx asks us to slow down. We trip up when we are trying to rush through this time. When we dance with the planets, life has more flow, ease, and wonder! Mercury Stations Retrograde on 6/29-7/23. Mercury will remain in its post-retrograde shadow until 8/6! Mercury will finally leave Cancer on 8/9.
The Nodes of Fate shift into Leo-Aquarius on July 27th! These are the signs where the Eclispes will take place over the next 18 months(we do have two out-of-sign eclipses in Virgo-Pisces to wrap up). Jupiter and the South Node will be in Leo. Pluto and the North Node are in Aquarius! Think back to 5/2017-11/2018. This was the reversal of this energy. The last time that we had this exact Eclipse cycle was 12/2007-8/2009! Themes from this time are back up for review. Of course, they are amplified exponentially due to Jupiter and Pluto's presence!
The Moon is in Taurus; the Moon in Taurus is stable, persistent, sensual, materialistic, possessive, security-oriented, comfort-loving, patient, determined, stubborn, and practical.
The Moon in Taurus is exalted and loves being here.
The Moon is answering to Venus in Leo, then Virgo when Venus enters Virgo this afternoon.
Moon in Taurus squares Pluto Rx in Aquarius at 12:34 am; we are healing and transforming as we sleep. Powerful visions and dreams are coming to us now.
Venus enters Virgo at 1:22 pm; Venus enters her sign of fall in Virgo. She's considered weakened or debilitated. Venus is all about beauty, love, and enjoyment. In Mercury's sign(Virgo), Venus is more analytical, hyper-focused on details and information. This is an ideal time for a deep Summer cleaning, thrift shopping, bargain hunting, and budgeting. This is a great time for getting our finances organized, making a budget, and cutting down on overspending. Venus in Virgo is hardworking, investigative, and analytical. Venus is answering to Mercury Rx in Cancer. Virgo is a Mutable Earth sign, so we are feeling more grounded mentally and willing to change and be flexible.
Several planets are slowing down, in retrograde, or answering to planets that are retrograde. This energy invites us to slow down, revise, review, and reset.
Venus in Virgo is all about classic and practical beauty. This is a great time to go through your closet!
Moon in Virgo sextiles the Sun in Cancer at 10:47 pm; this is a beautiful, fertile, restorative aspect. The Moon is decreasing in light; the Sun is offering healing and restoration.
Venus in Virgo trines Chiron in Taurus at 2:18 am 7/10; this is an incredible, powerful healing aspect. Home remedies, herbs, and alternative remedies are extremely potent now. This is a flowing, supportive, transformative Earth trine. This is an intensely psychic aspect; pay attention to your dreams and omens. Healing remedies are trying to reach us. Pay attention to your health, wellness, and body. Eat healthfully, get some exercise, and reconnect with Mother Earth.
Moon in Taurus sextiles Mercury Rx in Cancer at 6:13 am 7/10; this is another intuitive, psychic aspect. Important information is coming our way; listen closely. Information is scattered and wonky.
The Moon goes void of course with this aspect and remains void of course for a little over 12 hours! We haven't had a long void Moon in a while! Void Moons are great for unplugging from the outer world, working behind the scenes, getting more rest, and relaxation.
Void Moons are not supportive of launching businesses or projects, holding important business meetings, or making or attending doctor's appointments. The Moon is offline, and so is our emotional intelligence! This is a kind void Moon, but expect lots of information to come our way. Take in all the information, but try to avoid making big decisions!
Avoid arguments, confrontations, and fights! Volatile emotions tend to escalate quickly, and things can go off the rails! Pick your battles!

Otter- Woman Medicine- REVERSED
Otter says that we may be running from one idea to another without focus. This could also imply that you have forgotten how to receive and are blocking a gift from the Universe with your male side. If this is the case, you may be embarrassed to receive compliments, to have someone hug you, or to let your genuine personality show. Fear of being rejected is the contrary message of Otter. Drop the seriousness on all levels and play at life so that the fear rolls off your back. Realize that the only flow is the flow of love from the Great Spirit to you, from you to others, and from others back to you.

Year of the Yang Fire Horse!
Fire Horse years are extremely fast-moving, so buckle up! The last time that we had a Fire Horse year was 1966! The Fire Horse is bold, independent, passionate, strong-willed, and rebellious! Live with passion! Let your light shine!
Bedroom Feng Shui
I love the look of plants in the bedroom, but did you know that it is said that plants in the bedroom drain your energy? Humans are considered to be an Earth element. Plants are the Wood element. In the 5 Element theory, Wood drains Earth energy. As always, do what is best for you! Take a look at your energy levels; if you have plants, pictures of flowers, or even plant patterns on your bedsheets, maybe begin trading them out.
Bedrooms do best with neutral colors, earthy colors.
