Cosmic Insights – July 17, 2023 July 17, 2023

By Veronica G. Hartman

The celestial week of July 17, 2023, begins with the Sun rising in instinctively reactive Cancer illuminating an opportunity to emotionally realize that one is either, “giving away power” to avoid the responsibility of it or accepting it with the responsible leadership and accountability that goes with it. 

As the Moon is the CEO of Cancer and is also submerged in an emotional pond of sensitive vulnerable feelings in a balsamic phase to the Sun in Cancer, the key is to consciously let go of what you feel is your responsibility for others and realign your emotional energy to utilize your personal power to focus on the responsibility to yourself with the faith of potential opportunities materializing on the horizon.

Otherwise, potential confrontations with others may occur over a projection or rejection of authoritative power.  Underlying the balsamic lunar phase is a yod configuration qualified as the “finger of God” between the shadow of Venus in Leo going retrograde on July 22, Neptune retrograde in Pisces, and Pluto retrograde in Capricorn.  

As a result, the energy of the yod symbolizes an opportunity to embrace a period of transformation relative to self-values, worth, resources, and how one relates to all areas of life, which may require a spiritual attitude adjustment regarding the awareness of unconsciously creating personal reality by default, as well as an attitude adjustment from Pluto in Capricorn about subconsciously dealing with inner issues and thoughts about things that feel out of control and influenced by unknown forces.

However, the blessing of the yod configuration lies in setting the ego of Venus in Leo aside and humbly remembering that a greater power lies within to consciously create a desired reality with power, grace, and gratitude when the little will is surrendered to a greater good for all.

While this week is a preview of this opportunity, it will be in effect until Aug 5th and will then resurface during the first week of October as a reality check or progress report of how well you have done.

Later in the afternoon, the Moon in Cancer catches up with the Sun in Cancer in a unified cycle of emotionally tenacious energy to take actions based on emotions with no attachment to the unfoldment of the outcome regarding the intentions of the recent solar eclipse cycle of April 19, 2023.  The key to taking this emotional leap of faith is to pay attention to the gut feeling that comes from a subconscious emotional impulse as a psychic message to move forward.

Before the day ends, the Moon dances into heart-warming emotionally generous Leo to gracefully solicit support for the actions taken with a dazzling, charismatic smile before it joins Mercury and Venus to create an opportunity that increases financial gain through social media and networking.

However, Jupiter and Uranus in Taurus may have the final say before releasing funds or investing resources without qualified research, a well-executed business plan, and a written guarantee that ensures a bountiful return of value.  While, WC Fields quoted, “If you can’t dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bullshit” that strategy will likely fall short of the intended result if applied!

During the noon hour of July 20, the Moon moves swiftly into conscious and mentally adept Virgo with an emotional mindset to cut through the grandstanding chase with facts and statistics that may have the effect of throwing cold water and a screeching halt to over the top expenditures without prior discussion or approval.  The business attitude of the Moon in Virgo to trim the financial fat is currently supported by the cautious and pragmatic earth signs of  Jupiter and Uranus in Taurus, Mars in Virgo, and Pluto retrograde in Capricorn.

Later in the afternoon, Mars in Pisces opposes Saturn retrograde in Pisces for an accounting of a seemingly lackadaisical business attitude that has allowed important business decisions to fall through the cracks.  While the illumination may cause some embarrassment to the reputation of CEOs, it will not soften the blow of long-term repercussions.

The workweek ends with the Sun in Cancer opposing Pluto in Capricorn with an illumination of what needs to be balanced with cooperation regarding the responsibilities of the home front and the achievement of career goals to avoid unnecessary confrontations, challenges, and attitude adjustments when the Sun moves into Leo and Venus goes retrograde on July 22.
