Hello Good Humans!
The Full Moon occurs at 8°15’ Capricorn on Monday June 29, 2026 in New York, USA. It is the Strawberry Moon and a Micro Moon. The aspect is not strong but still noteworthy, a square to Neptune. Other astrological happenings include Mars sextile Jupiter. Mercury also goes retrograde earlier that day at 26° Cancer. This will give spiritual insights to pause and reflect on. The emphasis will be on career, family, action, travel and foreign relations.
A Full Moon happens when the Moon is 180° away from the Sun, exactly opposite. It is the time to present completed projects to the public and receive feedback. During the full Moon cycle we have to balance home and family with career, what we want with what we have internally and externally. So, let’s use our intuitive instincts to inspire action in our projects, plans and dreams.
PAUSE, RESET, ACT
There’s definitely a lot going on in the world and sometimes we soak up the negative psychic energies of what’s going on around us. It’s time to take a break and ring out that sponge. Both the Full Moon and Neptune are psychic and feelings oriented so, when they square off, it can be a bit overwhelming. Then it’s time to sort out feelings from facts, especially yours from others. Taking a break from reality to have restorative time is needed to hit that reset button. Mars is in a sextile to Jupiter bringing a desire for action and adventure as well as justice and foreign relations. The desire for quick changes can lead to hast and waste in plotting a course of action. A pause before pushing forward would be wise. The Magic Triangle with Pluto, Uranus and Neptune is also active bringing attention to political reforms and creative changes. All together these astrological influences can usher in change for the better. New policies, laws and negotiations are favored. Enjoying outdoor activities and travel can expand your mind and consciousness. Seeing how other people live and navigate life can make you realize that although we are different, we are all in the same boat. Philosophy and mythology will be both interesting and their moral lessons easy to integrate into your own life. Mercury retrograde reiterates the need to pause and check your plans facts and itinerary before moving forward. Make sure all involved are on the same page by keeping communication open. Mercury goes direct on the July 23, 2026 at 16° Cancer and square Saturn. It would be wise to pause again here to take a good reality check to see if your immediate plans are in line with your long term goals. So, start now with some meditation, prayer, creative visualization, music, dance, a good movie or read to relax and open your mind. Let your soul speak to you and show you what you need beyond your earthly concerns. Once grounded and restored you can then take confident action to create a better reality and see the world’s beauty and possibilities.
