Astro Daily: July 25, 2018

The Capricorn Moon puts us to work today. With Saturn also in the mix, it’s a day for a reality check. Are we honoring our commitments, our responsibilities? Are we honoring our word? Saturn wants us to push harder to reach higher.

Let’s not forget that as of last December we’re in a whole song and dance with Saturn. When the planet of responsibilities and maturity went into Capricorn, it marked the beginning of a three year story that will teach us lessons and work us harder in a particular part of our lives. (Not sure where? Check out my Saturn in Capricorn: Sign by Sign guide below.) There will be times when we have a check in with Saturn, like an appointment with our life coach, accountant, boss all rolled into one. Are we doing what we’re supposed to be doing? Are we sticking to the plan?

The Capricorn Moon will also activate the July 12 solar eclipse into tomorrow. And with that we’ll have a clearer focus of what’s moving in and out of our lives courtesy of that eclipse. (Pro tip — the Moon phases are triggers and timers for eclipse energy, especially within the first month after the eclipse.)

Speaking of eclipses, we’ve got a lunar eclipse on July 27 and, as I’ve been saying, we’re in the threshold of a new life. It’s like being in between acts in a play. Right now the set is getting rearranged. Oh, and tomorrow, July 26, Mercury turns retrograde. No big deal, right? Breathe in, breathe out. The next act is about to begin.
