The week starts off with the Sun in Cancer aspecting Uranus in Taurus on July 14th which is a soulful awakening and push to embrace our truest selves. The new moon in Cancer on July 17th urges us to change and evolve on an emotional level. Mercury in Leo squares Jupiter in Taurus on July 17, broadening our minds and opening us up to exciting opportunities. The Nodes of Destiny enter the Aries (North Node) and Libra (South Node) axis on the 17th, and will be there for the next 18 months. This is a calling for us all to focus on ourselves and to build our self-esteem.

 

Witch tips:

With the nodal shift occurring the same day as the new moon on July 17, this is prime time for a soulful awakening. Make a commitment to yourself to be the best version of you that you can be by letting go of all your bad habits or anything you want to release — after two new cycles are starting on the same day, which means it’s time for us to evolve. To do so, you’ll have to write them down on a piece of paper and then rip it up. Place in your caldron and burn them (practice fire safety prodecal and regulations). Cover your caldron as they burn and feel the release. Throw the ashes away and let go of your habits as you breathe new life into your body.

 

Aries

You might have to take on several roles this week in order to accommodate everyone’s needs. Prepare yourself to handle many tasks in an effort to keep the peace with your friends and family. Just know your limits to ensure that you’re not being completely taken for granted by others.

 

Taurus

Holding yourself back from opportunities and projects out of fear will only lead to loss. You must believe in yourself more than ever and follow your own cosmic flow. Take the Bull by the horns and prove to yourself and to others in your life that you deserve incredible things.
