The expression of power in the public sphere is a key area of activity for you, whether you engage with it voluntarily or not. Your reputation and career life are the most likely arenas for exploring these dynamics and integrating realities that you currently struggle to understand. Fortunately, you don’ t need to eat this elephant in a single bite. Listening is especially powerful around the New Moon, when you are receptive to what is unspoken. Tune into those emotional subtleties and trust intuitive messages. While the Full Moon lays out the professional facts, you don’ t need to explain everything in public.

Conceptualise your self-image as a digital hologram. You can play with possibilities and push yourself as far as you can go. That may well be too far as July begins, but you can’ t be certain until you try it, right? Life pivots like a knifethrower’ s blindfolded assistant spinning on a wheel. You are made for risk. The New Moon brings a gradual realignment with ancestral values- a simpler, more intuitive way of living, rooted in lost memories, helps you become truer. From familiarity, you can extend yourself, experience more and escape from egotistical drama.

Your relationship to the world is fundamentally changing; what first appears as a tangible career milestone, subtly ripples through to more idealistic notions of life purpose and direction. Let yourself be guided by the sunshine as much as the shadows. The New Moon gives you a potent hit

of intuitive renewal, if you turn your attention inward. Source your next moves by listening to your soul, not a hype-fuelled digital platform. Embrace a slower pace, particularly towards the end of the month. Meet the Full Moon with compassion. Loss is an inevitable part of the human experience – as is joy.

More than ever, you are aware that you make you own luck by being unapologetically true to yourself. Yes, you have doubts, just like the rest of us – in fact, strange feelings of uncertainty will feel rather acute around the New Moon. Something is roiling deep within your conscious awareness. It’ s non-verbal but unable to be ignored, a haunting half-memory curling a wrinkled finger towards your soul. That muddiness settles as Mercury retrograde ends and the Sun graces your sign. The Full Moon punctuates a key partnership. Feel all the big feelings and live to the max.

Your professional path has become an old-school video game, complete with moving platforms, destabilising projectiles and perilous hazards. No button mashing here, though.

The New Moon indicates compassionate community connections are ready to emerge. You have an intuitive understanding of collective needs which you will be able to fully articulate in time. Overindulgence could catch up to you around the Full Moon. Whether you’ ve been overworking, overtraining or over-optimising, excess is the enemy.

Times have changed( and, of course, will continue to change). Your current learning curve is around who and what you can rely upon. Spoiler alert: It’ s you. Increasingly blurry boundaries mean knowing where you stand in partnerships is increasingly difficult. Sometimes you’ ll get it wrong, giving someone the benefit of the doubt when they don’ t deserve it or putting up overly defensive walls. Integrating your meteoric career rise and deciding how you’ ll share your accumulated knowledge is worth deep contemplation. Look for soulful, not intellectual, responsiveness and celebrate collective creativity under the Full Moon.

Career options grow. You are feeling more confident in your abilities and will be invited to step onto new stages – and yet, the price of your success demands confrontation with deeply embedded insecurities. Luckily you are better equipped than most to face and integrate psychic shadows, so tally-ho.

Your imagination may get away from you around the New Moon. An absence of data should not be given as much weight as a present omen. Local factors force intelligent considerations of travel and scholarship at the Full Moon.

You get the clearest sense of the shifting sands during quiet moments of rest at home or at family gatherings as generational change unfolds in time lapse. Let the past dissolve and morph; hanging on to what was only prolongs the perception of loss and weakens the new worlds yearning to be born. Look to a new empathetic partnership chapter beginning at the New Moon, based on intuitive understanding and a shared desire to grow organically together. A serious financial moment is marked by the Full Moon; the emotional cost of pride or a high-risk strategy is revealed.

How you think about who you are is evolving; there’ s no going back to what now seems to be a simpler time. Accept your growing complexity and lean into the evermore profound truths within. In time, you will home in on what is irrevocably you and purge everything else. At the New Moon,
