So, you’ve noticed your partner hasn’t been acting like themselves lately. They’ve been a little more withdrawn, moody, and anxious for the past couple of months. Whether they’ve openly admitted it to you, you know that being stuck in quarantine is to blame. Let’s face it — with the number of COVID-19 cases rising across the country, daily life probably isn’t going to return to normal any time soon. Moreover, staying inside is still the safest thing to do. But if social distancing together impacts your partner negatively, their zodiac sign can give you some insight into how you can help your partner survive another month of quarantine.

Astrology may not be able to give you all the answers about how to deal with your partner. But it can definitely point you in the right direction. So, here’s how to help your partner survive another month of being in quarantine, based on their zodiac sign.

Aries (March 21 — April 19)
Mars-ruled Aries is the sign of action, passion, and energy. As you can imagine, if they’re not moving, they can get a little grumpy and impatient. If your Aries has been less than pleasant to be around lately, quarantine is likely why. To help them get in a better mood, Going on weekly hikes, jogs, or romantic walks in nature. They need to be in a place where they have a lot of room to breathe and clear their head.

Taurus (April 20 — May 20)
Truthfully, being stuck at home doesn’t bother them too much. But there’s only so much Netflix a person can consume before they eventually get bored. When a Taurus gets bored, they can start to feel unfocused. To keep your Taurus stimulated, plan a fun quarantine date night. “They love some healthy competition, so a good date with a Taurus might include a video game marathon or grabbing a cookbook and finding something fun to cook together,”

Gemini (May 21 — June 20)
Mercury-ruled Gemini is quick-witted and loves social interaction. Even if they’re in quarantine with you, they’re likely still having a tough time not being able to interact with other people. They’re also known for getting bored super easily, so it’s up to you to figure out ways to keep their mind stimulated. Geminis aren’t really fussy. “As long as you’re thoughtful, communicative, and playful, you’ll keep their heart. Having a weekly virtual game night with friends or taking evening walks together is a great way to help them survive another quarantine month.

Cancer (June 21 — July 22)
Sensitive Cancers are natural caregivers who always put their loved ones first. Because of that, you’ll rarely ever hear them ask for help to fulfill their needs. “They have a hefty sense of pride.. Although they’ll try to do their best to hide how they’re feeling, you’ll know something is off when they snap at you out of nowhere or become more withdrawn than usual. Since they don’t like asking for help, you need to pay close attention to their moods and take the initiative to ask them how you can help. As long as you provide them with a safe space to open up and be vulnerable, your Cancer will be fine.

Leo (July 23 — August 22)
“The center stage has been closed for most everyone, but the royal Leo is feeling it most. It’s no secret that Leos love showing their fabulous selves off and crave being the center of attention. They do that because they genuinely enjoy putting smiles on other people’s faces. But it’s a little tough to do that now when a lot of people are stuck at home. Leos are creative and fun-loving, so they will likely think of interesting ways to stay entertained while in quarantine. As long as you give them attention and go along with their wild ideas, they’ll be happy. If you want to take it a step further, planning a themed Zoom party for their friends can win you many points.

Virgo (August 23 — September 22)
Virgo is another sign that can easily survive another month of quarantine. If they had it their way, they wouldn’t leave the house until a vaccine was made. They’re efficient and appreciate order. “If you stay dependable and stick to routine no matter what, they’ll eventually let their hair down and be more adventurous. They also like keeping their space clean. If things are out of place, they can be a little critical and demanding. As long as you clean up after your mess and help them get the chores done, they’ll be easy to live with.

Libra (September 23 — October 22)
Libras can be indecisive about everything, so thoughtful and straightforward things tend to make them happy. If you want to do something with them, have a plan already in mind. You can save yourself the frustration of having the “I don’t care, what do you want to do?” conversation. Libras are total people-pleasers. There’s nothing that would bother them more than you being mad or annoyed at them. So, if you approach them with an idea, they’ll happily go along with it. Venus-ruled Libras love romance. Planning an evening picnic in the backyard while counting fireflies mixed with some moon and stargazing can be really enjoyable. You can even keep their mood up by bringing fun and flirty energy to your relationship.

Scorpio (October 23 — November 21)
On the plus side, Scorpios are passionate, intuitive, and sensual creatures by nature. On the other hand, they can also be suspicious and skeptical. Dating a Scorpio will take some patience but can be rewarding. If you’re in quarantine with one, it’s essential to give your all to the relationship as they won’t be holding themselves back once they finally open up. “Lots of soul-searching conversations about their past and future dreams will make your Scorpio happy,”

Sagittarius (November 22 — December 21)
Dating a Sagittarius during quarantine can be a bit dicey. Their curious, energetic, and adventurous nature just wasn’t made for being stuck indoors. They’re typically very independent, but don’t mind social distancing with a partner. “Just remember that Sag’s do not like to be bossed around,”. Make suggestions, not demands, and you’ll keep your fire sign happy.

Capricorn (December 22 — January 19)
Earthy Capricorns are grounded, analytical, patient, calm, and handle pressure well. Even if your Capricorn is eager to leave the house, their Saturn-ruled nature keeps them from breaking any rules or guidelines. If they’re starting to feel bored or restless during quarantine, start a project together. “Caps are problem solvers,” she says. You can help keep them entertained by doing a puzzle together or making something artsy you can display.

Aquarius (January 20 — February 18)
Aquarius, the humanitarian, enjoys being around a group of “like believers who strive to change the world,” With everything going on, your partner may be itching to get out there and help in any way they can. They’re very independent and don’t really need too much from you. All they need is your full support. “They love to root for the underdog, so helping them volunteer (safely) at a pet rescue, or cooking meals and delivering it to elderly neighbors can help make the Aquarian feel fulfilled. It also makes you look sexy in their eyes.”

Pisces (February 19 — March 20)
Pisces love being at home. They typically live in their heads, and being in quarantine gives them a lot of time and space to fantasize and work out their dream. Being able to stay at home all day with the one they love is even better. You really don’t have to do too much to keep them happy for another month in quarantine. Regular date nights with Postmates, a movie, and cuddling on the couch after works just fine for them.

Definitions: Procyon (restless and hot-tempered yellowish-white star seeking release in fast and furious action… bestows a strong physical drive and a sharp mind. Rise and success are granted by this feisty star, but only if patience is practiced and good judgment exercised. The fixed stars play an important role in the understanding of ourselves and the universe. Learning about them is an awakening in itself. Begin now! prepare for the coming ascension acceleration process. Eat correctly, plenty of raw earth ingredients.

 The Cancer new moon on Monday, July 20, 2020, is opposite Saturn. So new moon July 2020 brings restrictions, tests, and hardship. A serious attitude, patience, and hard work are needed as you struggle against the odds.

The July 2020 new moon joins a star with an impulsive, rash, and argumentative nature. This makes it even more important to stay focused on your goals with determination and persistence. Saturn rewards responsibility and dedication with achievement and recognition.

New Moon Opposite Saturn

Sun opposite Saturn can bring restrictions and hardship. It can be a real struggle to overcome these limiting conditions because as well as putting up barriers to progress, Saturn makes it harder to express yourself. You may have to deal with melancholy, worry, loss, grief, disgrace, or low self-esteem.

Your need for companionship may be at odds with other people’s need for distance. Or perhaps you want a break from the burdens and responsibility that are being imposed on you. Distance or separation between you and others can lead to a sense of rejection or isolation.

Difficult relations are possible with your father, other authority figures, and older people. Other people in general may be critical, demanding, and impatient towards you. To get what normally comes easy, you may have to become either more demanding or more patient.

These tests and trials can make you miserable and frustrated, or they can make you determined to succeed. With critical thinking, and a serious, thoughtful attitude, you can learn new skills and gain valuable knowledge. Hard work, patience, and persistence can lead to achievement, recognition, and respect. If you do still feel frustrated, try plodding along by yourself on some personal goal where you do not require the assistance of others.

Fixed star Procyon at 26 Cancer 03 is of the nature of Mercury and Mars (exaggerative, argumentative, unreliable, unscrupulous, given to invective, mechanical ability, very quick mind, great talker.) It gives activity, violence, sudden and violent malevolence, sudden preferment by exertion, elevation ending in disaster, danger of dog bites and hydrophobia, and makes its natives petulant, saucy, giddy, weak-natured, timid, unfortunate, proud, easily angered, careless and violent.

Fixed star Procyon has a Mars-Mercury nature, and therefore makes people hasty, jealous, pig-headed; but it also confers will-power and ability to put thoughts and plans into action. There is also a tendency to a hot temper and impudence. Rise and success are found with it, but a later fall from high position is indicated. Enterprises created in haste, therefore, do not last. Procyon gives drive and a good sharp mind. But in order to avoid a fiasco, care must always be taken not to be imprudent.

Harsh aspects cause jealousy and envy from others, but in general, this star gives the ability to dig deeply for knowledge and give freely of what is found.

Sun conjunct Procyon: Great help from friends, military preferment after great struggles and expense.  A valiant demeanor. Moon conjunct Procyon: Occult interests, restless, never remains long in one place, quarrels with friends, partners and employers.

New Moon July 2020 Summary

The July 20 new moon is opposite Saturn so it is therefore serious, melancholic, and restrictive. It suggests tests and challenges could make you feel frustrated, pessimistic, and held back.

The best way to deal with such a repressive influence is to work hard with patience, determination, and persistence. But fixed star Procyon conjunct new moon July 2020 has just the opposite effect. It makes you restless, hasty, and argumentative. And this impulsive and aggressive influence is amplified by Mercury square Mars.

Thankfully Procyon also makes you driven and valiant, with the will-power and ability to put thoughts and plans into action. While difficult Saturn aspects also encourage you to think deeply and struggle hard in the face of adversity.

So this is a new moon to focus on the basics. Tackle one thing at a time and start with the most important task. Be patient, avoid taking unnecessary risks, and do not react to provocation.

The July 20 new moon effects lasts for four weeks up to the August 18 new moon. The best time for starting new projects is during the waxing phase of the moon, from the July 20 new moon to the August 3 full moon.

Aries

There’s no need to include everyone in your circle of trust, Aries. But you shouldn’t go out of your way to exclude people, either. It may seem like someone’s trying to take your place, but at this new moon, it’s more likely they’re just looking for their own. Move on, and move ahead in your surroundings and space, with a handle on feeding and nurturing self and others, talking with care to elders, making yourself heard regarding your needs– feeling comfortable and at ease. Recognize where improvements can be made but importantly what’s already been accomplished.

Taurus

It’s a new week, with a New Moon in Cancer (at 1.32 pm EDT) to help us reset and refresh – and enjoy a new beginning! Now in the thoughtful, conversational realms of your horoscope, Sun, Moon and Mercury hone in with a focus on communication skills, language, rapport, and your siblings, neighbors, and local environments. Some ideas are like a fine wine. They get truer and wiser with age. But others are more like fast food. Whatever nutritional value they originally had, they lose their flavor pretty quickly. At this new moon, be a connoisseur at distinguishing the timeless ideas from the outdated ones.

Gemini

Name it and claim it, Gemini! You’re finally feeling secure enough to identify and advocate for your needs. But if your own needs aren’t being met, chances are that others aren’t being taken care of, either. At this new moon, look for strength (and safety) in numbers. Move on, and move ahead in your work, with a handle on feeding valued and rewarded, compensated – feeling comfortable and at ease. Recognize where improvements can be made but importantly what’s already been accomplished. Issues of debt, loans, or mutual gains – and responsibility – looms large, and might restrict or limit how far you’re able to focus on your own role.

Cancer

Baby steps, Cancer! After a period of solitary reflection, this new moon finds you tentatively venturing out. Chances are, you have something new and meaningful to share with others. But it may take a while before you feel totally comfortable putting yourself out there. Take all the time you need. Focus on the way you present yourself, your lifestyle, concentrations and value; make note of the efforts you intend to make around vitality, your outlook and your solo endeavors, the way you maintain presence & keep a sense of independence & self-sufficiency. Move on, & move ahead with an ability to hold your own, feeling present & able, making yourself heard regarding your needs, feeling comfortable & at ease. Recognize where improvements can be made but importantly what’s already been accomplished and take up space.

Leo

Lockdown is over, Leo! You’re done suppressing your sensitive side. But at this new moon, the real self-discipline begins: Knowing when, where, and with whom it’s safe and appropriate to show vulnerability. Be gentle with yourself, though, as it’s probably something you’ll learn through trial and error. Focus on ways you feel at ease with the sensation of anticipation, gestation, preparation, and the unknown, with scandals, mysteries and misunderstandings; make note of the efforts you intend to make moving beyond difficult periods of isolation, or think about matters from the sidelines in a lucid fashion, letting go–surrendering control. Balance wellness, work and industrious efficiency while shining a light on the more sensitive subjects that are uncertain, unpredictable and trying… Remember, to accept defeat needn’t be ‘defeatist’.

Virgo

“If you see something, say something.” Lately, Virgo, you’ve seen some things that you’ll never be able to un-see. And at this new moon, you feel responsible for speaking up and acting on them. Keep your focus on what you can do within your own circle of influence. Mercury hone in with a focus on networks, and friendly allies or acquaintances, and ways you band together with a common cause or Endeavour in mind.  Your passions and interests have no doubt flourished, established thanks to long-term efforts, endurance, & persistence for the people, places and things you love, yet these might also seem to be a heavy burden today! Balance heart felt pleasures that are yours alone with consideration for your spirit and physical family.

Libra

Feelings are meant to be shared, Libra. But not all feelings are meant to be shared publicly—at least not until we’ve taken some time to process them for ourselves. Whatever you’re ready to express at this new moon, it’s likely to resonate and have a great emotional impact on others. Your ability to nurture, nest and parent, show interest in your clan, and honor household matters looms large, and might restrict or limit how far you’re able to ascend! Emotional endurance and boundaries you’ve established over the long-term are to be considered, and might even seem a heavy burden today. Balance security and nurture with shining a light on the more prolific position you uphold

Scorpio

“Protecting” vs. “policing”: For you, Scorpio, this isn’t only a question of social justice. It’s also an important distinction for you to make in your attitudes toward others. As concerned as you may feel, you might have to trust that—like you—others are capable of making the right choices. Communication and navigation skills have no doubt flourished – the way you deal with (neighbors,) family members, or people in your environment, including close work colleagues, kindred spirits, or pals – established thanks to long-term efforts, endurance, & persistence, yet the relational aptitude you possess might be a heavy burden today! You may have had to work hard at getting your point across, improving articulation, learning how to speak up. Express yourself with authority, while also shining a light on the more foreign subjects on your mind…

Sagittarius

“No judgment,” Sag? It’s a great idea in theory, but not always easy in practice. Especially when you’re faced with someone who seems to contradict every value you hold dear. But giving them the cold shoulder is unlikely to win them over. At this new moon, warmth is the way. Capabilities around your job, money, pay packet, and your sense of personal attributes – your role, contribution and what you do looms large, and might restrict or limit how far you’re able to come together as a joint entity. Your capacity to make a living and succeed in the material realms – building and developing –  has no doubt flourished thanks to long-term efforts, endurance, & persistence, yet your input and success might be a burden today! Balance your input with how you might sustain relationships

Capricorn

Missed connections can be so frustrating, Capricorn. But even if your first attempts at reaching out have come back empty-handed, it may be premature to give up. Before going back to your self-isolating ways, this new moon urges you to give it at least one more try. Your own journey and autonomy looms large, how you’ve risen up, meeting life’s challenges head on and might restrict or limit how far you’re able to focus on others. Your responsibilities have no doubt taken on new meaning, established thanks to long-term efforts, endurance, & persistence, yet the accolades you wear as an authority might be a heavy burden today! Balance your struggle, growth and development while shining a light on collaborative efforts, too…

Aquarius

Self-care doesn’t equal self-indulgence, Aquarius. In fact, it takes a lot of discipline to consistently do what supports and sustains your own wellbeing. But at this new moon, perhaps the most challenging discipline of all for you is replacing overly critical or punishing self-talk with gentler, kinder words of encouragement. Your solitary, secret life of retreat, charity, escapism and addiction looms large, and might restrict or limit how far you’re able to focus on healthy lifestyle choice sand maintenance – your chores and regular employment. Your ability to draw back, deal and heal in unconscious, subtle ways, overcome hurts, misunderstandings, scandals, bad habits and hard circumstances (helping others) has developed thanks to your own long-term efforts, endurance, & persistence, yet the tools, habits or nuances developed might feel like a heavy burden today!

Pisces

What’s more important than finding your voice, Pisces? Knowing—and believing in—what you have to say. You can’t always predict or control how your message will be received. But if the energy and intention behind it are pure, others are likely to respond in good faith. Your support system, network, allies, (the industry, society, or network you care about,) and sense of teamwork could loom large, and the influence or momentum you’ve developed might now restrict or limit how far you’re able to focus on personal gratification. Your position has no doubt flourished, established thanks to long-term efforts, endurance, & persistence, yet your popularity might be a heavy burden today! Balance engaging with peers, friends and followers – your audience – with the energy it takes to create something great.

On July 5th, 2020 we have a July Full Moon Lunar Eclipse at 13° Capricorn.  Often referred to as the Buck Moon, in reference to the time male deer’s antlers grow, this month’s Full Moon has long been associated with relaxation and observing the cycles of nature.

Some may consequently be surprised to discover this month’s Full Moon on Sunday provides some less-than-sunny developments. The Full Moon takes place in self-disciplined Capricorn, a sign demanding maturity and concentration. These traits mean this Full Moon influence does not work well with the hazy days of summer.

This is the very last eclipse in the Cancer/Capricorn axis. This is the “final act” of the drama series that started in 2017 when we had our 1st eclipse on the Cancer/Capricorn axis. This Lunar Eclipse is a South Node Eclipse so it is about letting go of the past. Even the aspects the Full Moon is engaged in are separating. Everything about this eclipse screams “move on”. We are ready to move on.

“Ready to move on” doesn’t mean moving on is easy. Moving on is almost never easy, and even when we think we have moved on it’s probably because we haven’t fully processed the experience. South Node eclipses are about letting go. Again, we can never truly let go of something, because the material and energetic imprint of that ‘something’ does not just ‘disappear’.  It transforms. It moves on to other realms. It becomes something else. It may no longer belong to us. It may no longer be part of our lives. But it is still somewhere, ever-evolving.

In Vedic astrology, the Lunar Nodes are represented by a Serpent. The North Node is the head of the Serpent, or the Direction, and the South Node the tail. That’s why we are told to focus on our North Node – our Direction in life. (at least in our capitalist society; in the past, it was the South Node that was revered, since it was a spiritual point of liberation and transcendence). The North Node, the head, is hungry for new experiences. The South Node, the tail, is what comes out of these experiences.

But then the serpent is depicted as an infinity symbol or as a serpent that eats its tail. What comes out, the South Node, doesn’t just go away, it becomes the new fuel for the North Node. That’s karma, or what goes around comes around. This Lunar Eclipse highlights themes connected to Cancer and Capricorn. Cancer is what we create and nurture. Capricorn is rules, systems, and top-down hierarchies. We need both, however when the North Node is in Cancer and the South Node in Capricorn, our focus is on nurture, not on systems. Now the question is, what do we do with these outdated Capricorn systems and rules? Do we just drop them? Just as the serpent that eats its tail, we cannot just drop them. We need to take what’s nurturing and can still serve the purpose of the North Node, and then allow what’s left to become something else.

If you know you need to let go of something and you find it difficult, remind yourself that letting go is not about eliminating or erasing that thing from your life. Is about allowing it to re-invent itself and become something perhaps even greater.

The Lunar Eclipse in Capricorn occurs on July 4th, at 9:44 PM PT, an appropriate birthday gift for this nation. Revealing the shadows and the injustices that happen there, eclipse season always unearths.

As those of us that have benefited from the unjust set up of the United States attempt to grapple with its origins and the outcomes, with our complicity and our responsibility, a pandemic rages on.

As this eclipse season comes to a close (it officially began back on June 5th with a lunar eclipse in Sagittarius), the past month feels like a timewarp. We’ve cut back the fat and the flesh of hundreds of years of this nation’s foundation. With its bones exposed, it is clear that what is owed couldn’t actually be repaid, but every attempt must be made to honor this debt. It’s past time.

This is the last eclipse in Capricorn for many years to come. It wraps up a cycle of them that have been occurring for the last year and a half. Capricorn teaches us how to honor time and wisdom. It refuses to worship the glitter dust that a youth-obsessed culture tries to cover everything in. Capricorn knows that in times of great crisis, it is the work of generations past that we build upon and bring into the future. It is the structures that have been laid out by those that had this and future generations in mind that will be the bridge that we need to move us through the chaos and into the creation of the next phase of life on the planet.

Capricorn and its ruling planet, Saturn, govern time, bones, structures, and the steep decline that comes with age. This coupling constricts, brings downturns, and is more than willing to deny pleasure but in exchange, it’s more than willing to provide wisdom. Saturn is currently in Capricorn, together with this lunar eclipse, Jupiter, and Pluto. This heavy emphasis in Capricorn can feel withholding, brutal even. Tradition becomes torturous if it doesn’t give way to what is needed as we evolve.

The wear and tear of the world is more than likely taking its toll on us. This is a moment to refuse anything but the truth, part of which is remembering that to run a marathon we must take incredibly good and kind care of ourselves. There are future generations depending on it.
Your lunar eclipse horoscopes are meant to be read as inspiration. If you know both your rising sign and sun sign, please read both horoscopes. You’ll know which resonates more for you from week to week. Take what works for you, leave the rest.

Aries & Aries Rising
With Taskmistress Saturn and the lunar eclipse both in Capricorn, your career, your work in the world, and your public roles are all major points of focus. Your achievements are plentiful, but what’s more important to pay attention to is the personal and collective work they help you to take part in. Developing a professional culture of gratitude runs counter to white-supremacy and its posse. To share instead of hoard deconstructs the pyramid scheme of the patriarchy. To rise up as a collective force is what scares the 1% more than anything.These dreams are completely possible but not easy to manifest. They take rigorous self-examination, a willingness to give up power that wasn’t yours to begin with, and a reckoning with the fear, greed, and shame that prevents you from making real and long-lasting changes.

Scarcity isn’t a natural state of being. It is counter to the cosmos. There is never too little when we think collectively. Lack is a system that we have been indoctrinated into. The last 6 months of 2020 ask you to unearth all the ways in which you have fallen for the ideology that espouses that your success should come at the cost of anyone else’s or that anyone else’s comes at the cost of your own. As you sit down at your desk each morning, before you jump on the Zoom call or check your calendar, pause for a moment to imagine what it would take to turn your industry into a dream job for anyone entering it and for everyone already in it. Work from there.

Taurus & Taurus Rising
Lack is a lie. Abundance is present when living in accordance with the world around us. Any ideologies that claim otherwise are fictitious. Your philosophies, big plans, and long-term goals get emphasized with July’s lunar eclipse in Capricorn, but you’ll need to counter the narratives that suggest it’s not possible to win in ways that are generative for all. Getting to the top of a mountain on your own is far from likely. You might need solitude along the journey but someone somewhere along the path packed your lunch, gave you a hug, or made sure you knew you were capable of such a task.Don’t forget it.  If you get caught up chasing a goal that doesn’t leave room for every other good thing in your life to be along for the ride and rise, question it. As Saturn spends the last 6 months of 2020 in Capricorn, it reminds you that the end and the means must be equally justifiable. There are no shortcuts here, just the long, winding road of doing right by yourself and everyone else.
Gemini & Gemini Rising

The process of building a deeper relationship to your joy, despite all the aspects of the world that will try to interfere with it, is exceptionally important work. Let nothing and no one get in the way.

As Venus begins once more to pick up speed, after a long and slow 6 weeks retrograding through your sign, you are in a very good position to implement strategies and practices that will bring about a greater sense of connection in your life and in your world.

It is a sense of belonging that builds movements. It is love that inspires communities to continually rise up against injustice. It is a feeling of connection that most of us are after. Your ability to foster that kind of generosity for yourself and your people, inspires everyone around you to do the same. As the many outcomes of July’s eclipse unfold, you are more prone to witnessing the many gifts that your collaborations bring, but if joy isn’t one of them, you might consider just how central scarcity has become within them. If you are building with others, and pleasure is nowhere to be found, what exactly are you building?

Cancer & Cancer Rising
There is no shortage of affirming affection to go around. There is no lack of connection to be had. Whatever lessons you soaked up about how love is scarce need to be lovingly dismantled.July’s eclipse pulls focus on your one-to-one themes about intimacy and connection. It wants you to feel out the ruptures, deeply contemplate the divides, and be fascinated by the boundaries necessary for giving and receiving affection. Since Saturn spends the last 6 months of 2020 in Capricorn, asking you to do the same, the emphasis here is clear: know what you tend to withhold from yourself and how that kind of cruel refusal impacts your ability to experience intimacy.

Having boundaries is having them for the sake of other people’s well-being as well as your own. Knowing how and why you tend to cause harm is as important as learning about how harm is and has been done to you. There is no human alive that hasn’t, at some point, done damage. When you realize that human is you, repair what you can immediately, forgive yourself for not doing better as a way of ensuring that you will, and come to terms with the fact that as the world reckons with itself, so will you.

Leo & Leo Rising
 July’s eclipse in Capricorn (the last of its kind for a long while) asks you to look back on all of the grueling, repetitive, seemingly unforgiving mountains of work you’ve plowed through over the past 2 years. What you’ve accomplished was hard-won and (hopefully) worth it. Every ‘t’ that you crossed and every ‘i’ you dotted made a difference. Even if no one else in your world said so at the time, you know so. Self-respect is an inside job.The ways in which you have shown up for the most unglamorous of your duties says everything about how you’ve matured and made the decision to take the reigns. Power struggles that you found your way through have taught you much about what it means to be fair to yourself no matter the fight. With Saturn in Capricorn for the last 6 months of 2020, you are putting the finishing touches on the projects that demand the most from you. However, these are the projects that over time also bring you the most in terms of returns. Patience is a virtue to cultivate here. It is also the antidote to putting the cart before the horse and the gift before the gratitude for it.
Virgo & Virgo Rising
The work will never be done. The emails never cleared for more than a moment. The dishes will find a way of piling themselves back up before you know it. Moments of pleasure can only be accessed through the present and through your presence. Protect the entryways. Place guardians at your gate. Give yourself permission to dwell for as long as you need to in the spas that replenish you.With Saturn back in Capricorn for the last 6 months of 2020, it seems only fitting that you become an expert of your own ecstasy. In order to do so, time needs to be set aside for pleasure and the kind of creative projects that are soulfully satisfying.

As the last eclipse in Capricorn unfolds, it unearths your internal creative process. The shadow self can rob us of much energy and enthusiasm, but it is also home to many portals of genius. Don’t throw your discomfort out with the bathwater before you investigate its origins. What we find repellent about ourselves is what we need to know more deeply. It’s counterintuitive to the ego but it’s where the greatest transformations occur. Satisfaction is hard to come by if we are too afraid to deconstruct our shame.

The world will always rush you. It will always proclaim your lateness. It’s always eager to get you whipped up into a frenzy thinking through the lens of scarcity.July’s eclipse reminds you to drop your anchor down. Below the beliefs of have and have not is the truth; you never need to prove you are enough. You may have been fed another paradigm or you may have grown up in circumstances that were antithetical to this, but your value is inherent.

Case closed. July’s eclipse is sure to unearth some of the shame and shadow that gets in the way of your ability to flourish – but being confronted with ghosts from your past is a gift. A key to a vault of psychological gold. We all know that there is no building in the present moment without being clear about our past.

With Saturn’s last pass through Capricorn lasting until the end of 2020, you are meant to spend the next 6 months putting the floorboards of your life in place. Prioritize forgiveness for your mistakes and healing for the moments in which you were forsaken.

Scorpio & Scorpio Rising
Trust the timing. Tune out the doubt. Take yourself on a trip down memory lane of all the things you are retrospectively glad didn’t happen in the way you wanted them to. As eclipse season has its way with your daily life and plans, some events will be delayed, others obscured, while a surprise or two is in the works. Don’t waste your time pushing an agenda because it’s what you think should happen. Know you are protected when something is put off.With Saturn spending the last 6 months of 2020 in Capricorn, it asks you to put the finishing touches on your calendars, schedules, and daily setups. Notice what about them is generous, kind, and considerate of your needs. Notice what you tend to withhold from yourself, even in the slightest but most repetitive of ways. What you do with the smallest compartments of time makes a massive difference when looking at what you want to accomplish over longer stretches of it. Commit to keeping up with the rituals that help you digest, cleanse, and decompress. Any emotion clutter that builds up can get the best of you. Whatever smoothes out your system, holds you through the intensity of tough conversations, and keeps you accountable while compassionate is key.

July’s eclipse reminds you that the fiscal beliefs we collectively operate under are like fast fashion: they are new and not permanent. Have faith that what has been built from greed, delusion, and fear will falter and fail. In the meantime, ponder the kinds of ecosystems that you can invest in as a safety net for your psychological, emotional, material, and spiritual well-being.As Saturn spends the last 6 months of 2020 in Capricorn, it unearths the ways in which the scarcity mindset that the modern world perpetuates and thrives on has impacted you personally. Pay special attention to the places in your life where self-denial takes center stage. Notice what you give others effortlessly and question why you don’t do the same for yourself. The beliefs about scarcity and abundance that you unearth over these next days and weeks help you hone in on what inner bounty actually looks like in your life.

True wealth only exists when it creates communal prosperity. Keep finding all the ways in which you can make this ideal a reality in your world. The more you consistently give yourself, the less reserved you’ll be about receiving what you need when it’s offered.

 

Capricorn & Capricorn Rising
Over the past couple of years, what you’ve been able to eliminate from your life is as powerful as what you’ve added to it. What you said no to was hopefully a statement of affirmation to yourself.Major advancements are a compilation of many small decisions over a long period of time.

With July’s eclipse in Capricorn and Saturn spending the last 6 months of 2020 here, the finishing touches that you are putting on your recent self-improvements are mighty and magnificent. In order to fulfill such a task, you’ll need to get incredibly honest about the parts of your life you’ve been too afraid to tackle. The patterns that you no longer want to repeat will now be pronounced. It will take a practice of consistent and considerable mindfulness to do so, but you are built for that kind of intensity and this is the moment to apply such talents.

Go forward with relentless compassion for yourself; with eclipse season coming to a close your growth edges are most likely lit up.

Aquarius & Aquarius Rising

You’ve been busy building a fortress, making room in the areas of your psyche that were formerly cramped with the worries of generations past. The formidable effort you’ve made has not been in vain. Make sure to steal away moments to enjoy the space you have created for yourself.

Take note of what corners you still need to liberate from the grip of family dynamics that aren’t worth repeating. Both July’s eclipse and Saturn’s return to Capricorn emphasize all that you have had to come to terms with and continue to. Over the next 6 months, you get to understand just how timely this work has been. Not a minute too soon and not a second too late, you are in the perfect place at the perfect moment for this stage of your growth.

Trusting yourself is the finishing touch to focus on. Come the end of 2020 you are set to soar, but you’ll need to be able to count on your instincts in order to enjoy and make the most of the rebirth.

Pisces & Pisces Rising

July’s eclipse sheds light on your hopes, dreams, and future plans. The friendships that help make them happen are a key component to the last half of 2020. As you return to the blueprints for collective pursuits you had put on pause, you’re encouraged to investigate when and where you delegate, negate, share, or hoard power.

Pretending that you aren’t a crucial tile in the mosaic of the moment is a devastating blow to the collective. Denying your responsibilities is as detrimental to collective world-building as being an authoritarian is. Show up as is and you’ll learn to grow from there.

The shadows that tend to dwell in the collectives that you are drawn to are important to make conscious. Each group will naturally contain some elements that are opposite to their exterior presentation. No formation of people is without an issue. Getting clear on what you might add to the mix of toxicity helps you learn more about effective ways of holding space. Each one of us contains poisons and purification systems. We are all capable of causing harm and holding space for healing. Give yourself the permission to be human and refuse to believe that anyone else is above being such a glorious mess.

The Lunar Eclipse in Capricorn occurs on July 4th, at 9:44 PM PT, an appropriate birthday gift for this nation. Revealing the shadows and the injustices that happen there, eclipse season always unearths.

As those of us that have benefited from the unjust set up of the United States attempt to grapple with its origins and the outcomes, with our complicity and our responsibility, a pandemic rages on.

As this eclipse season comes to a close (it officially began back on June 5th with a lunar eclipse in Sagittarius), the past month feels like a timewarp. We’ve cut back the fat and the flesh of hundreds of years of this nation’s foundation. With its bones exposed, it is clear that what is owed couldn’t actually be repaid, but every attempt must be made to honor this debt. It’s past time.

This is the last eclipse in Capricorn for many years to come. It wraps up a cycle of them that have been occurring for the last year and a half. Capricorn teaches us how to honor time and wisdom. It refuses to worship the glitter dust that a youth-obsessed culture tries to cover everything in. Capricorn knows that in times of great crisis, it is the work of generations past that we build upon and bring into the future. It is the structures that have been laid out by those that had this and future generations in mind that will be the bridge that we need to move us through the chaos and into the creation of the next phase of life on the planet.

Capricorn and its ruling planet, Saturn, govern time, bones, structures, and the steep decline that comes with age. This coupling constricts, brings downturns, and is more than willing to deny pleasure but in exchange, it’s more than willing to provide wisdom. Saturn is currently in Capricorn, together with this lunar eclipse, Jupiter, and Pluto. This heavy emphasis in Capricorn can feel withholding, brutal even. Tradition becomes torturous if it doesn’t give way to what is needed as we evolve.

The wear and tear of the world is more than likely taking its toll on us. This is a moment to refuse anything but the truth, part of which is remembering that to run a marathon we must take incredibly good and kind care of ourselves. There are future generations depending on it.
Your lunar eclipse horoscopes are meant to be read as inspiration. If you know both your rising sign and sun sign, please read both horoscopes. You’ll know which resonates more for you from week to week. Take what works for you, leave the rest.

Aries & Aries Rising
With Taskmistress Saturn and the lunar eclipse both in Capricorn, your career, your work in the world, and your public roles are all major points of focus. Your achievements are plentiful, but what’s more important to pay attention to is the personal and collective work they help you to take part in. Developing a professional culture of gratitude runs counter to white-supremacy and its posse. To share instead of hoard deconstructs the pyramid scheme of the patriarchy. To rise up as a collective force is what scares the 1% more than anything.These dreams are completely possible but not easy to manifest. They take rigorous self-examination, a willingness to give up power that wasn’t yours to begin with, and a reckoning with the fear, greed, and shame that prevents you from making real and long-lasting changes.

Scarcity isn’t a natural state of being. It is counter to the cosmos. There is never too little when we think collectively. Lack is a system that we have been indoctrinated into. The last 6 months of 2020 ask you to unearth all the ways in which you have fallen for the ideology that espouses that your success should come at the cost of anyone else’s or that anyone else’s comes at the cost of your own. As you sit down at your desk each morning, before you jump on the Zoom call or check your calendar, pause for a moment to imagine what it would take to turn your industry into a dream job for anyone entering it and for everyone already in it. Work from there.

Taurus & Taurus Rising
Lack is a lie. Abundance is present when living in accordance with the world around us. Any ideologies that claim otherwise are fictitious. Your philosophies, big plans, and long-term goals get emphasized with July’s lunar eclipse in Capricorn, but you’ll need to counter the narratives that suggest it’s not possible to win in ways that are generative for all. Getting to the top of a mountain on your own is far from likely. You might need solitude along the journey but someone somewhere along the path packed your lunch, gave you a hug, or made sure you knew you were capable of such a task.Don’t forget it.  If you get caught up chasing a goal that doesn’t leave room for every other good thing in your life to be along for the ride and rise, question it. As Saturn spends the last 6 months of 2020 in Capricorn, it reminds you that the end and the means must be equally justifiable. There are no shortcuts here, just the long, winding road of doing right by yourself and everyone else.
Gemini & Gemini Rising

The process of building a deeper relationship to your joy, despite all the aspects of the world that will try to interfere with it, is exceptionally important work. Let nothing and no one get in the way.

As Venus begins once more to pick up speed, after a long and slow 6 weeks retrograding through your sign, you are in a very good position to implement strategies and practices that will bring about a greater sense of connection in your life and in your world.

It is a sense of belonging that builds movements. It is love that inspires communities to continually rise up against injustice. It is a feeling of connection that most of us are after. Your ability to foster that kind of generosity for yourself and your people, inspires everyone around you to do the same. As the many outcomes of July’s eclipse unfold, you are more prone to witnessing the many gifts that your collaborations bring, but if joy isn’t one of them, you might consider just how central scarcity has become within them. If you are building with others, and pleasure is nowhere to be found, what exactly are you building?

Cancer & Cancer Rising
There is no shortage of affirming affection to go around. There is no lack of connection to be had. Whatever lessons you soaked up about how love is scarce need to be lovingly dismantled.July’s eclipse pulls focus on your one-to-one themes about intimacy and connection. It wants you to feel out the ruptures, deeply contemplate the divides, and be fascinated by the boundaries necessary for giving and receiving affection. Since Saturn spends the last 6 months of 2020 in Capricorn, asking you to do the same, the emphasis here is clear: know what you tend to withhold from yourself and how that kind of cruel refusal impacts your ability to experience intimacy.

Having boundaries is having them for the sake of other people’s well-being as well as your own. Knowing how and why you tend to cause harm is as important as learning about how harm is and has been done to you. There is no human alive that hasn’t, at some point, done damage. When you realize that human is you, repair what you can immediately, forgive yourself for not doing better as a way of ensuring that you will, and come to terms with the fact that as the world reckons with itself, so will you.

Leo & Leo Rising
 July’s eclipse in Capricorn (the last of its kind for a long while) asks you to look back on all of the grueling, repetitive, seemingly unforgiving mountains of work you’ve plowed through over the past 2 years. What you’ve accomplished was hard-won and (hopefully) worth it. Every ‘t’ that you crossed and every ‘i’ you dotted made a difference. Even if no one else in your world said so at the time, you know so. Self-respect is an inside job.The ways in which you have shown up for the most unglamorous of your duties says everything about how you’ve matured and made the decision to take the reigns. Power struggles that you found your way through have taught you much about what it means to be fair to yourself no matter the fight. With Saturn in Capricorn for the last 6 months of 2020, you are putting the finishing touches on the projects that demand the most from you. However, these are the projects that over time also bring you the most in terms of returns. Patience is a virtue to cultivate here. It is also the antidote to putting the cart before the horse and the gift before the gratitude for it.
Virgo & Virgo Rising
The work will never be done. The emails never cleared for more than a moment. The dishes will find a way of piling themselves back up before you know it. Moments of pleasure can only be accessed through the present and through your presence. Protect the entryways. Place guardians at your gate.
