Awareness through Astrology

Cosmic Insights – July 5, 2021 July 5, 2021

By Veronica G. Hartman

The celestial week of July 5, 2021, begins with the Sun rising in emotionally instinctive Cancer, illuminating an opportunity to have the courage of a lion to trust that faith is a guiding light now and that one’s inner wisdom is in touch with a higher power. 

Sirius, a fixed star in the constellation of Canis Major sits at the same degree as the Sun today and is magnifying the brightness and power of the Sun.  In ancient Egypt, Sirius was revered as The Shining One as it was linked to the annual life-giving rising of the Nile river, assuring that the field of grains would produce an ample food supply for the inhabitants.  In that sense, Sirius was considered to be immortal and a spiritual star of truly immense power with the magic to harness hidden forces to create and recreate something new.  As the Sun and Sirius are both in Cancer, the key is to utilize the power of emotions as energy to nurture the purpose of life, as surely as water nurtures the earth to provide a life-giving reality.

Meanwhile, the Moon and the ruler of Cancer are moving through steady Taurus reflecting an opportunity to experience great talent, wealth, and rewards through solid values, and the awareness of the strength and stability in current surroundings with an attitude of gratitude.

While that may seem like wishing on a star, as Venus in Leo is currently engaged in what appears to be challenging and confrontational dynamics with Saturn retrograde in Aquarius, and Uranus in Taurus isn’t it really the perception of challenges and confrontations that is driving the dynamics?  Then perhaps, the key to unlocking the opportunity to experience a positive reality is to utilize the power of the lion to embrace the value of life with gratitude for the blessings that are already present in life, as well as the faith that those blessings are never-ending. 

Another important consideration now is that the ongoing Saturn retrograde movement through Aquarius, presupposing a challenge with Uranus in Taurus is really an opportunity to take a responsible action to learn from the past and then apply those teachings to the future.  The key is to pay attention to the intuitive perceptions as a barometer for future actions leading to a sense of at-one-ment with all life; leading to understanding the direction and guidance needed for the future.

Later in the evening, the Moon breezes into mental Gemini with an emotional message that it’s time to move forward on plans, short trips, and projects that have been on hold for the last several weeks.  The caveat is that Mercury the daily ruler of Gemini has not quite cleared the last hurdle of the retrograde cycle or its challenges with Neptune in Pisces. A current personal experience with purchasing a used car has demonstrated that quite clearly as hidden information was revealed by Neptune retrograde in Pisces that the arrangement was actually a scam!  Thus, waiting until Mercury begins to move past the challenge with Neptune on July 6, before signing on the dotted line would be advisable.  Then on July 7, Mercury clears the shadow of its cycle with a go-ahead!

On the morning of July 8, the Moon wades into the emotional pond of sensitive Cancer stirring up feelings about childhood memories that continue to float up through the day from dreams experienced during the pre-dawn hours.  Huge chunks of insightful feelings come forward as the emotional pieces of the past fall into place, opening a door of healing through understanding, acceptance, and forgiveness. 

Later in the afternoon, Venus in Leo and Uranus in Taurus go head to head with differences about relationships and resources.  While Venus in Leo is very charming and adept at getting agendas met, Uranus in Taurus is not easily swayed by a charming demeanor if there is no solid evidence of the value involved in the exchange.  That is not to say, that it doesn’t appreciate the effort exerted during the challenge, it just isn’t going to relinquish resources for the privilege.

On July 9, a new moon cycle occurs in Cancer shortly after sunset, offering an opportunity to renew a sacred commitment to the emotional quality of one’s life regarding internal security and the comfort of home and family.  Cancer energy is adept at nurturing with a demonstration of nourishment and caring, by sharing the preparation of home-cooked meals with others while investing quality time in listening to their concerns, goals, and aspirations.  So, now is a great time to cement those bonds with family reunions, leisurely meals around the grill, or just an old-fashioned but still in style, Sunday dinner!
