In July 2024, there will be a New Moon in Cancer, which is nurturing, and a Full Moon in Capricorn, which is especially powerful.
What can we anticipate seeing?
What exactly is a New Moon?
A New Moon occurs when the Sun and Moon are in the exact same position in the Zodiac, which is referred to as a conjunction. The transiting Sun and Moon are both moving. In addition to having a high level of energy and enthusiasm, new moons are associated with beginnings.
What exactly is a Full Moon?
When the Sun and Moon are in positions in the Zodiac that are completely opposite to one another, this is referred to as an opposition. This type of Moon is known as a Full Moon. The Full Moon is associated with conclusion and culmination, and it is a source of emotional energy.
New Moon in Cancer: July 5th/6th 2024 (6:58p.m. ET/12:58 a.m. CET)
During the Cancer New Moon, emotions tend to be harmonious, as Cancer is the sign that the Moon naturally governs. It brings a sense of emotional calmness and stability, allowing us to feel more secure. By harnessing the power of the New Moon, we can tap into its energy to embark on new endeavors that resonate with us on an emotional level and ignite a strong sense of motivation within us.
Emphasizing home and family matters is crucial, as Cancer holds sway over these areas. During this period, you may find it beneficial to focus on home projects, organize family gatherings, spend quality time with loved ones, or consider making adjustments to your living arrangements. One can return to the fundamentals or reconnect with their origins.
Cancer holds a strong connection to internal foundations due to its position at the very bottom of the Zodiac. Under the influence of the Cancer New Moon, we have the opportunity to enhance our inner strength and experience a heightened sense of security. This information holds significant value when starting a project from the ground up, with the potential to reach its peak or achieve success within the next 6-9 months.
The Cancer New Moon opposes the transit of Ceres in Capricorn, which is currently in retrograde motion. The dwarf planet Ceres, which governs the areas of nourishment, support, and resources, has disrupted these areas since the start of Ceres retrograde in mid-May. The Cancer New Moon may exacerbate concerns, giving the impression that they are beyond our influence. It would be beneficial to cultivate a greater sense of adaptability in order to avoid exacerbating situations.
This is closely connected to the preceding and subsequent Full Moons, both taking place in Capricorn, the sign where Ceres is currently retrograde. This places significant emphasis on matters concerning governments, corporations, institutions, the established order, and individuals in positions of authority. This is a crucial period in the middle of the year. On a personal level, there may be a need to confront and transform a stagnant aspect of your life in order to enhance your overall well-being.
The New Moon occurs at 14 degrees 23 minutes Cancer.
The aspects to the New Moon are:
Conjunction: 12 degrees 23 minutes – 16 degrees 23 minutes Cancer
Sextile: 12 degrees 23 minutes – 16 degrees 23 minutes Taurus or Virgo
Square: 12 degrees 23 minutes – 16 degrees 23 minutes Aries or Libra
Trine: 12 degrees 23 minutes – 16 degrees 23 minutes Scorpio or Pisces
Opposition: 12 degrees 23 minutes – 16 degrees 23 minutes Capricorn
Full Moon in Capricorn: July 21st 2024 (6:17a.m. ET/12:17p.m. CET)
It’s interesting to note that this Full Moon in Capricorn is the second one in a row, following the June Full Moon, which also occurred in this earth sign. The energy of the June Full Moon is intricately connected to this one, and the unfolding events from that Full Moon carry over into July with this Full Moon. We place a strong emphasis on observing outcomes and reaching conclusions, driven by a desire to accomplish something. Responsibilities can feel heavy at times, requiring us to approach them with intelligence, ethics, and a professional mindset. It’s important to work within our limitations while still maintaining discipline and unwavering focus. This is the time to address any tasks or decisions that were done improperly or with the wrong intentions. It is crucial that we take the necessary steps to rectify any issues that may arise. On the other hand, there are potential rewards for our actions when we make the right choices and have the right intentions, which can serve as a source of motivation.
During Ceres’ retrograde, we focus on issues related to nourishment, support, and resources. During this period, there may be a significant emphasis on scarcity in various aspects of the world, such as the scarcity of food that leads to famine or the scarcity of water that leads to drought. Getting support can sometimes be difficult, requiring us to rely on our own abilities and become more self-reliant. However, it is possible for us to take on an excessive amount of responsibility, leading to an overwhelming burden. We need to approach things with a realistic and rational mindset, avoiding unrealistic expectations from ourselves and others. It’s important to work towards our goals in a methodical and disciplined manner. The issues may have started to reach their peak with the previous Full Moon on June 21st.
The Capricorn Full Moon in July holds significant power as it takes place at the anaretic degree. Each Zodiac sign consists of 30 degrees, with the final degree being 29. This is known as the anaretic degree, and it possesses a highly potent energy that often manifests as crisis energy during transits of this nature. Given the current circumstances, it appears that the upcoming full moon may intensify the challenges we are facing. It is understandable that we are feeling particularly stressed, overwhelmed, and in need of some respite.
Maintaining a professional approach is crucial, as it guides our actions with sound judgment and a clear purpose. During times of challenging energy, it may be tempting to give up and let things spiral out of control. However, it is important to remember that surrendering is not the most effective course of action. By persevering effectively, ensure that you navigate this period with expertise and emerge stronger and more strategically positioned.
The Capricorn Full Moon forms a trine aspect with transit Neptune in Pisces, which is also at the anaretic degree of 29 degrees Pisces. This aspect is incredibly beneficial, especially considering the intense energy that is currently present. When it comes to Neptune, it is beneficial to tap into our intuition and have faith in our inner guides. Utilizing imagination and creativity in all aspects of our lives can help us make significant progress and gain greater control. Furthermore, one can greatly benefit from letting go of past burdens, both on a karmic, subconscious, and early life level. This period presents an opportune moment for engaging in therapeutic practices.
Take note of the houses in your natal chart that fall between 29 degrees Capricorn and 29 degrees Pisces. These specific areas of life can harmoniously collaborate and provide support during this Full Moon. When you have natal bodies positioned at 29 degrees of any Zodiac sign, their energy becomes activated. It is important to utilize this energy in a beneficial way by focusing on activities related to the areas they govern.
The Full Moon occurs at 29 degrees 9 minutes Capricorn.
Aspects to the Full Moon are:
Conjunction: 27 degrees 9 minutes – 29 degrees 59 minutes Capricorn
Sextile: 27 degrees 9 minutes – 29 degrees 59 minutes Scorpio or Pisces
Square: 27 degrees 9 minutes – 29 degrees 59 minutes Aries or Libra
Trine: 27 degrees 9 minutes – 29 degrees 59 minutes Taurus or Virgo
Opposition: 27 degrees 9 minutes – 29 degrees 59 minutes Cancer
Since this Full Moon is late in Capricorn, out-of-sign aspects may be felt (as if it were in the next sign, Aquarius), but in a more subtle and/or subconscious way.
The out-of-sign aspects are:
Conjunction: 0 degrees 0 minutes – 1 degrees 9 minutes Aquarius
Sextile: 0 degrees 0 minutes – 1 degrees 9 minutes Aries or Sagittarius
Square: 0 degrees 0 minutes – 1 degrees 9 minutes Taurus or Scorpio
Trine: 0 degrees 0 minutes – 1 degrees 9 minutes Gemini or Libra
Opposition: 0 degrees 0 minutes – 1 degrees 9 minutes Leo
