July 15th – 21st

Think Different, Act Different 

This week’s headline items: Chiron remains exalted (stations) all week; Neptune ends its Station phase on Tuesday; Mercury enters its pre-shadow phase very early Wednesday; Chiron’s station intensifies on Saturday; Mars changes signs from Taurus to Gemini late Saturday afternoon; the second Full Moon in Capricorn within a 30-day period becomes exact early Sunday.

There will be three Moon Void of Course (VoC) phases this week: Tuesday late evening (for 15 minutes), Friday early morning (16 minutes), and Sunday morning (17 minutes)

Before we get to this week’s Forecast, a gentle reminder…

Join us on Friday, July 19th, at 1pm EDT/6pm London time for my next Forecasting Forum! The Early Bird Special ends on Wednesday at midnight EDT!

Please note that we’ll take a look at Mercury’s & Chiron’s Station phases, which start July 14th & 27th (and last until Aug. 9th & 13th). We will also talk about Mercury’s Shadow phases and its second Retrograde phase of the year in Leo/Virgo.

So, if you want to know how these planetary shifts will impact you personally, join me live on July 19th or sign up to receive the mp4-video presentation.

Now, this week’s Forecast…

Monday, July 15th: 

Monday, the Moon remains in passionate, all-or-nothing Scorpio all day; it will journey there until Tuesday late evening. Emotional authenticity is extremely important to us at this time; anything less than 100% emotional honesty could be perceived as flat-out dishonest.

Once we feel safe trusting someone, we want to merge with them, preferably forever — as long as our trust is never betrayed.

The Moon in Scorpio urges us to uncover our own power. It does so through subtraction — it urges us to let go of whatever disempowers us. This makes it an excellent time to look at “old” fears, limiting habits, or emotional attachments, especially those stemming from past traumas.

The Moon in Scorpio tends to run right over ambiguity — it’s “in or out”, “with us or against us”, “love me or leave me”, etc. It can, therefore, be stormy — a cold winter storm or a torrid tropical storm of passion, depending on how we “work” the energies.

Monday early morning, a somewhat challenging Mercury/Saturn aspect becomes exact at 4:57am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from Sunday morning (July 14th) on; it will remain strong until Tuesday morning (July 16th). This will contribute either to a lack of mental energy or a need to focus more inwardly.

This aspect operates more internally: We feel uneasy about something, almost awkward, and we must make a choice.

The sheer scope of our goals in life can require more effort than is immediately apparent. Hard work can take its toll on our mental health. If we partition our big ideas into achievable segments — and go one clear action step at a time — we can move forward while maintaining inner peace and outer health.

Use your time wisely! Develop inner awareness to see what needs adjusting.

Could you let go, just for now, of wanting to rank things in order? Could you let go, just for now, of wanting to be in control? Wanting to know what’s next? Might slowing down and turning inward give you the solution that you are looking for?

Might it be possible that showing gratitude towards others and opening your heart might lead to less stress or pressure?

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 18-20 degrees of Leo or Pisces? If so, you will be more affected by this aspect. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Virgo, Gemini, or Capricorn (Mercury is the ruler of Virgo and Gemini; Saturn rules Capricorn).

Monday morning, a challenging Sun/Chiron aspect becomes exact at 7:44am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last Friday morning (July 12th) on; it will remain strong until Thursday late morning (July 18th). This asks us to stretch ourselves and expand from within.

We might feel less confident about who we are and have a hard time projecting a social “front”. Our conditioning and wounded sense of Self may be out of harmony with each other.

As best as you can, take this as an opportunity to make space for feeling vulnerable or emotional without seeing yourself as weak or “less than”. It is perfectly ok to be yourself and feel insecure once in a while; as best as you can, bring compassion and love to yourself and others. After all, we are all human…

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (MC), or personal planets in 20-27 degrees of Cancer, Aries, Libra, or Capricorn? If so, you will feel the effects of this aspect more strongly than otherwise. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Leo (the Sun rules Leo).

Monday late morning, a Mars/Uranus alignment in 26º of Taurus becomes exact at 10:05am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last Thursday early morning (July 11th) on; it will remain strong until Saturday early morning (July 20th).

This connection brings a lot of nervous energy with it: we will most likely feel sudden spurts of energy moving through our bodies; this could make us rash in thought and deed. We may experience sudden insights about ourselves and our valued goals.

Ask yourself: Might a deep breath into my belly calm my nervous system? What might it look like to consciously break away from situations that have limited me when it came to honoring myself and my talents? Where could I channel my courage?

Where do I need to “think different”? Act different?

Our willingness to innovate is strong with this alignment: new ways of seeing, using, and approaching our personal possessions, valuables, money, and talents are in focus.

It takes courage to try something new and different. Ask yourself: What is the next step on my journey toward becoming an ever-stronger, healthy individual, one who honors and loves themselves and has the courage to have different values from others?

This alignment between Uranus and Mars also asks us to break away from anything keeping us from honoring our uniqueness and quirks — whatever keeps us in a rut, collectively and individually.

Please be extra conscious when driving. Do your best to channel the extra energy in a productive way: physical exercise is great for this, as is consciously breaking away from situations that have limited you — up until now.

And (this is always wise)… As best as you can, stay grounded and keep breathing …

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 23-29 degrees of Taurus, Scorpio, Leo, or Aquarius? If so, you will be more affected by this alignment. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Aries or Aquarius (Mars is the ruler of Aries; Uranus is the ruler of Aquarius)

July 8th – 14th

by Sonja Francis | Jul 7, 2024 | Astrological Forecasts

A Potential Turning Point 

This week’s headline items: Neptune remains exalted all week; the Sun squares the Solar Eclipse degree from April 8th on Wednesday night; on Thursday, it’s time to take action on our New Moon intentions. Venus changes signs from Cancer to Leo on Thursday afternoon; the last Quarter Moon in Libra becomes exact on Saturday evening; Chiron starts to slow down (station) on Sunday — it’s getting ready for its yearly Retrograde phase.

There will be three Moon Void of Course (VoC) phases this week: Tuesday very early morning (for a little over 7.5 hours), Thursday late evening (for 11 minutes), and Saturday evening (for a little over 16 hours).

Now, this week’s Forecast…

Monday, July 8th: 

Monday, the Moon remains in fun and attention-loving Leo all day; it will journey there until Tuesday late morning. We may lack objectivity and struggle with backing down or compromising. We all love to be admired — or at the very least acknowledged — for our greatness.

So hand out some compliments — let people know how proud you are of them, and tell them how much you love them. Come from the heart in this and all other things; be honest and authentic as best you can.

Monday morning, an opportune Venus/Uranus aspect becomes exact at 7:04am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from Saturday evening (July 6th); it will remain strong until early Wednesday (July 10th). It gives us the opportunity to experiment with how we relate to others — to do something different or unusual — freedom plays a big part in this aspect.

Of course, others are experimenting too, so you might experience some unusual or unexpected interactions during this time — it’s a favorable time for social meetings and events. As best as you can, stay open and flexible: fresh air is blowing through your relationships.

We’re also ready to experiment with our financial undertakings — good places to look: all things “tech” (electronics, technology, internet); metaphysics; the arts; group activities.

This is not the best time to make long-term financial investments — except perhaps those that come to you in an intuitive flash.

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 24-28 degrees of Cancer, Taurus, Pisces, or Virgo? If so, you will be more aware of this opportunity, as will those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Taurus, Libra, or Aquarius (Venus is the ruler of Taurus, and Libra, Uranus rules Aquarius).

Monday late morning, an opportune Mercury/Jupiter aspect becomes exact at 10:26am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build on Saturday evening (July 6th); it will remain strong until Wednesday early morning (July 10th).

This aspect is an opportunity for us to expand our thinking and express ourselves with confidence and optimism — we share what’s important to us from a place of open-mindedness and excitement.

This connection also allows an expansion from stepping into uncharted territory. Humor can be a great way to tap into this energetic combo.

This planetary connection also favors short trips, writing, teaching, studying, and expanding our perspectives. We more readily exercise good judgment and are more “philosophical” and open to learning.

As with any opportunity, we have to “take” it — it requires we take action. What could you do to instill confidence in your exploration of the mind? Is a new mental process asking to be explored? Are you ready to expand your mind? Your thinking?

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 8-12 degrees of Leo, Gemini, Aries, or Libra? 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 Gemini, Virgo, or Sagittarius (Mercury rules Gemini and Virgo; Jupiter is the ruler of Sagittarius).

July 1st – 7th

by Sonja Francis | Jun 30, 2024 | Astrological Forecasts

Source Your Energy From Within 

This week’s headline items: Neptune remains exalted all week; the Balsamic Moon phase begins very early Tuesday; Neptune comes to a halt early Tuesday morning, starting its yearly Retrograde phase in Pisces; Mercury changes signs from Cancer to Leo late Tuesday morning; the New Moon in Cancer will be exact on Friday evening, and Saturn ends its Station phase that same evening (remaining retrograde).

There will be three very brief Moon Void of Course (VoC) phases this week: Tuesday late morning (for 7 minutes), Thursday late afternoon (for 7 minutes), and Saturday late evening (for 9 minutes).

Before we dive in, I just wanted to share…

Sam and I had an amazing One Day Retreat on Saturday! It was beautiful, moving, and magical. We posted some photos on Instagram… so feel free to check those out and say hello!

Now, this week’s Forecast…

Monday, July 1st: 

Monday, the Moon remains steady, peaceful Taurus all day. It will journey there until Tuesday late morning. We love all physical comforts, prefer consistency, and would rather stick with what we know works well.

In other words, change is not our favorite thing, and “rushing things” goes against our grain. What is our favorite thing until Tuesday late morning? It’s probably slowing down and getting in touch with whatever delights our senses.

Monday early afternoon, we are invited to take care of anything that has value for us on a physical level.

Ask yourself: what actions could I take this afternoon that would be in alignment with my physical desires and needs? What practical actions would energize my body and bank account?

As best as you can, honor yourself, your talents, and physical matter in general. (Moon in Taurus conjuncts Mars, exact at 12:19am EDT)

Monday afternoon, we have an opportunity to connect with family and loved ones in a nurturing way — and, indeed, to connect with all of them from the heart.

Ask yourself: What might become possible if I let myself enjoy others in the mutual pursuit of any shared values? What if I were open to receiving practical support as well as giving it? (Moon in Taurus sextiles Venus in Cancer, exact at 2:42pm EDT)

Monday evening, we have an opportunity to focus on the subtle and the essential — and achieve flow around material wants and needs.

We are invited to practice a gentler, more intuitive approach, to go within and get in touch with our inner divinity, and to bring peace and inner knowingness to our financial goals and ability to honor ourselves.

Ask yourself: Could I trust my inner knowing (or intuition) 5% more than I have previously? What spiritual practices could support me on this journey inward?(Moon in Taurus sextiles Saturn in Pisces. exact at 5:28pm EDT)

Monday night/Tuesday very early morning at 3:50am EDT, the Balsamic Moon phase begins when the Moon reaches almost 26º of Taurus. This Moon phase lasts until Friday evening when the New Moon in Cancer becomes exact (more about this on Friday… In the meantime, feel free to watch my video on the subject)

We are being asked to slow down and get quiet so we can listen to our inner sensing/intuition. For some of us, this might be a stretch.

As best as you can, stay grounded, take a deep breath, and exhale any tension. Rather than starting something brand-new, put all that energy into completing existing projects or processes.

This is also a great time for letting go of whatever no longer serves us. What if you could hear the voice of your inner wisdom? What might it be saying?

Also, tomorrow (Tuesday), at 6:40am EDT, Neptune comes to a halt at 29º56′ of Pisces to start its yearly 5-month Retrograde phase. This phase lasts until  December 7th (at 27º08′ of Pisces).

Until then, we are invited to access Neptune’s energy from within: Our intuition will be very strong during this time.

During this time, we can see how connected we are to our Higher Self/The Universe/Source. What’s more, we have an opportunity to dissolve any barriers between us and our Soul’s guidance.

For the next five months, ask yourself: Am I sensing my Soul’s desire for love and oneness to the fullest? Am I resting enough? Am I connecting to my intuition? Is anything keeping me from experiencing the flow of life?

Neptune will still be exalted until July 16th! For a more comprehensive understanding of Neptune’s Station phase and how this might impact you personally, feel free to get & watch my webinar: “Exalted Neptune & Saturn in Pisces until July!“

Some of us will feel the effects more than others. This is particularly true if you have personal planets in 27-29 degrees of Pisces, Virgo, Gemini, Sagittarius, or 0-2 degrees of Aries, Libra, Cancer, or Capricorn — and if you have a Pisces Sun- or Rising-Sign. For you, in particular, this is a great time to reevaluate your connection to Source — and perhaps to allow yourself to connect more fully to the flow of life.

Speak Your Divine Truth 

This week’s headline items: Neptune and Saturn are both exalted (stationing) all week, and both of their stations intensify this week — Saturn’s Station intensifies on Tuesday, Neptune’s on Thursday; the last Quarter Moon in Aries becomes exact early Friday evening; lastly, Saturn comes to halt on Saturday afternoon, starting its yearly Retrograde phase.

There will be three Moon Void of Course (VoC) phases this week: Tuesday evening (for a little over 7.5 hours), Friday early morning (for 7 minutes), and Sunday very early morning (for 7 hours).

Before we get to this week’s Forecast, last chance to join us…

Now, this week’s Forecast…

Monday, June 24th: 

Monday, the Moon remains in freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius all day. It will journey there until Tuesday night/Wednesday very early morning.

Monday late morning, we may feel rather social.  We get a chance to connect with like-minded people, expand each other’s minds, and share information that allows us to see the bigger picture. Great ideas and concepts can be shared right now. (Moon in Aquarius trines Jupiter in Gemini, exact at 10:52am EDT)

Monday afternoon, requires some inner adjustments. We feel uneasy or awkward and need to make a choice, one that demands we develop inner awareness around two very different urges: on the one hand, the desire to have physical and emotional safety and connect with what feels familiar — and on the other hand, the need to make progress and connect to like-minded people about our collective future visions.

This could also extend to personal, practical things vs. social, idealistic visions, and discerning what works now vs. “progress”. Awareness is critical with this aspect: What is needed? And when? How can we take the higher path? (Moon in Aquarius quincunxes Venus in Cancer, exact at 3pm EDT)

Monday evening, we are invited to make some adjustments in our lives. As best as you can, find creative solutions to seemingly unsolvable situations.

Make space for connections with like-minded people, involvement in a cause, as well as aligning with your own values and enjoyment of life. As such, we may have to address what we value — both in others and in ourselves. (Moon in Aquarius squares Mars in Taurus, exact at 6:58pm EDT)

June 17th – 23rd

by Sonja Francis | Jun 16, 2024 | Astrological Forecasts

Getting Present in the Here & Now 

This week’s headline items: Venus has moved into Cancer — and Mercury joins her there on Monday early morning. Neptune starts to slow down (station) on Tuesday; late Thursday afternoon, the Sun changes signs from Gemini to Cancer — this also marks the yearly Summer Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere. The Full Moon in Capricorn becomes exact on Friday evening; lastly, on Saturday, Saturn also begins to slow down (station).

There will be four brief Moon Void of Course (VoC) phases this week: Monday until 2:38am EDT, Wednesday early afternoon (for 13 minutes), Friday evening (for 10 minutes), and Sunday late evening (for 9 minutes).

Before we get to this week’s Forecast, join us…

Wednesday at 5pm EDT/2pm PDT for my next Forecasting Forum! Early Bird Special ends on Monday at midnight EDT!

Please note that we’ll take a look at Neptune and Saturn’s Station phases, both in Pisces, which start June 18th & 22nd (and last until July 5th & 16th).

So, if you want to know how these planetary shifts will impact you personally, join me live on June 19th or sign up to receive the mp4-video presentation.

ALSO – you can still join us on June 29th for our One-Day Retreat in the country: “Breathe in Life” — an exploration of yourself via Astrology, Yoga, Breathwork, Nature, and a chance to connect with like-minded women. For more info or to register, click here

Now, this week’s Forecast…

Monday, June 17th: 

Monday is a huge day (astrologically speaking). The Moon remains in passionate, all-or-nothing Scorpio all day. It will journey there until Wednesday early afternoon (June 19th). Emotional authenticity is extremely important to us at this time; anything less than 100% emotional honesty could be perceived as flat-out dishonest.

Once we feel safe trusting someone, we want to merge with them, preferably forever… as long as our trust is never betrayed.

The Moon in Scorpio urges us to uncover our own power. It does so through subtraction — it urges us to let go of whatever disempowers us. This makes it an excellent time to look at “old” fears, limiting habits, or emotional attachments, especially those stemming from past traumas.

Monday early morning, a challenging Mercury/Neptune aspect becomes exact at 3:41am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from Saturday evening (June 15th) on; it will remain strong until Wednesday morning (June 19th). This aspect asks us to stretch ourselves and grow, which challenges us to get out of our comfort zone and to work through something that requires a creative approach.

In this case, our comfort zone is the mind (Gemini) and our need to be mentally busy and engaged. The challenge here is finding a way to trust our intuition (Pisces) and turn inward for answers and direction.

Ask yourself: What might be possible if I allowed myself to shift from only paying attention to my conditioned mind to getting present in the here and now and feeling into the energy and truth of who I am?

We may experience a lack of clarity and objectivity. We might make embarrassing errors, neglect important details, or carry some delusions now. Our lack of clarity may make it difficult for others to understand us.

Ask yourself: Is it possible that what I understand with the mind is very different from what I comprehend with the heart? And if that is so, could I trust my heart 5% more than I have done previously? Could I allow myself to slow down and rest in knowing that all is well all of the time?

We are more imaginative now and also more easily swayed by the opinions of others. We can be highly creative and inspired under this influence but also overly sensitive, touchy, or impractical.

It can be hard to follow routines or to concentrate on monotonous tasks (like work tasks or studies that involve attention to detail or rote learning); as best as you can, be compassionate with yourself and others during these three days. If you have an important contract to sign or negotiate, if possible, wait until after Wednesday.

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in the following: 27-29 degrees of Gemini, Pisces, Sagittarius, Virgo, or 0-3 degrees of Cancer, Aries, Capricorn or Libra? If so, you are more affected by this aspect. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Gemini, Virgo, or Pisces (Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo; Neptune rules Pisces).

Apropos Neptune, just a gentle reminder: Early Bird Special for my next Forecasting Forum ends TODAY at midnight EDT! We will be discussing the Neptune & Saturn Station phases in Pisces. Join us live on Wednesday at 5pm EDT/2pm PDT, or register to receive the mp4-video presentation!

Monday at 5:07am EDT, Mercury changes signs from chatty, versatile, curious, quick-witted Gemini to protective, nurturing, family-oriented Cancer. It will journey there until July 2nd. During this cycle, we are more sensitive to our surroundings, especially when listening and taking in information.

We also have more sympathy for the suffering of others. On the other hand, we have less objectivity, as emotions are always involved in our interactions with others; this could also mean we end up taking things more personally than we really need to — perhaps even to the extent that we start feeling sorry for ourselves.

As best as you can, remember to ask yourself: Is this really about me?

This is particularly true if you have your Ascendant or Sun-sign in Gemini or Virgo. You will feel a stronger need to connect with family or the people in your life that feel familiar and safe. You may also feel the need to talk about the past and work through past conditioning. If you are a Cancer Sun-sign or Rising-sign, you will be more chatty for the next 2 weeks.

Monday morning, a Mercury/Venus alignment in 0 degrees of Cancer becomes exact at 8:43am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from Friday morning (June 14th) on; it will remain strong until Thursday morning (June 20th).

This is an excellent time to share about family, home, real estate, emotional connections, safety, motherhood — or anything we feel nurtures us — and also about any teaching endeavors connected to those areas.

This alignment supports communicating from a nurturing, supportive heart — and in fact, it becomes essential to connect to people with whom we feel a strong affinity.

We wish to form those connections in a spirit of harmony, sensitivity, and equality. In fact, we generally tend to have a strong sense of fairness at this time and want to be around people who share these values.

We also thoroughly enjoy the written and spoken word — literature, wordplay, puns, moving conversations — especially when the words are comforting and speak of something familiar, nurturing, or emotionally soothing.

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in the following: 0-3 degrees of Cancer, Capricorn, Libra, Aries, or 27-29 degrees of Gemini, Sagittarius, Virgo or Pisces? If so, you will feel this alignment quite strongly; the same is true for those of us with our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Virgo, Gemini, Libra, or Taurus  (Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo; Venus is the ruler of Taurus and Libra)

Monday late evening, a somewhat challenging Mercury/Pluto aspect becomes exact at 11:13pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from Sunday night (June 16th) on; it will remain strong until Tuesday evening (June 18th). This aspect operates more on an internal level. We feel uneasy about something, awkward, and need to make a choice — so we need to develop inner awareness.

Our compulsive side may lead us down a path that evades rational understanding. Our judgments — of circumstances, ourselves, and others — can be so extreme during this aspect that we can’t seem to make intelligent and consistent progress in our life for the two days it is in effect.

As best as you can, strive to be more trusting and less strict with yourself for these two days. Surrender to whatever you are experiencing right now: It is temporary!

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 0-3 degrees of Cancer or Aquarius? If so, you will be more affected by this aspect. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Gemini, Virgo, or Scorpio (Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo; Pluto is the ruler of Scorpio).

See Sunday’s post (June 16th) for details on aspects and planetary movements that took place between midnight and 3am EDT Monday.
