July 21, 2024: FULL MOON in CAPRICORN

The night sky presents us with a rare and cosmic event, dear reader: a second Full Moon in Capricorn, the wise and steady sign of the elder!  This special lunation invites us to pause, reflect, and embrace a unique chance to reinforce what we started with the first full moon in Capricorn. Consider this extra Full Moon as a gift – a second chance to grab onto opportunities we thought had slipped away this last month, reviving hope and purpose with a determined heart!

Capricorn, ruled by Saturn, embodies the qualities of ambition, discipline, and perseverance. It is a sign that values structure, hard work, and long-term planning. Like the last Full Moon, this lunation continues to amplify these themes, encouraging us to assess our goals, achievements, and the structures we have built wherever it lands in our charts. It is a call to examine our ambitions with a discerning eye, to refine our plans, and to commit to the path of mastery and achievement.

An important detail to note is that this lunation occurs at the anaretic, or 29th, degree of Capricorn, a position of critical importance in astrology. The anaretic degree is known for its intensity and urgency, symbolizing a decisive moment where action must be taken! It is a point of heightened energy that calls for resolution, completion, and a readiness to move forward with clarity and purpose. The time of indecision has passed, dear reader, and under this full moon, we move from rumination, to surefooted implementation.

This Full Moon is graced by several significant aspects, each adding layers of depth and complexity to its potent energy. As always, let’s take a deeper look into these aspects. First up is an Out-of-Sign Conjunction with Pluto in Aquarius.

Moon-Pluto combinations always bring a somber, transformative vulnerability to the surface, allowing us to face realizations we’ve conveniently hidden in the name of self-preservation. This lunation opens these boxes from our psyche, allowing us to sort through what we truly need and value, versus what we hold on to, because of nostalgia and fear of change. 

With Pluto being in Aquarius, the sign of innovation, we are encouraged to let go of our baggage and update our methods. Under this energy, we readily adapt to new technologies and upgraded ideas, moving past outdated approaches—emotional or otherwise—so we can navigate the future with lightness and ease!

Trine Uranus in Taurus and Mars in Gemini: Harmonious conversations between Uranus, the planet of innovation and sudden change, and Mars, the planet of action and drive, blends lunar energy effectively with Taurus’s stable energy and Gemini’s flexibility. This alignment supports bold yet practical actions, encouraging us to implement innovative solutions to achieve tangible progress. Influenced by the steadfastness of Taurus with the adaptability of Gemini, this lunation helps us navigate changes with both resilience and versatility. and lastly,

A Sextile with Neptune in Pisces: Neptune’s influence brings creativity and compassion into our plans. This supportive aspect invites us to align our practical goals with our higher ideals, balancing our ambitions with a sense of empathy and imagination. It promotes integrating our dreams with our daily efforts, fostering a well-rounded approach to achieving our objectives. We are driven to evolve, but not at the expense of our compassion. True progress nurtures our humanity, allowing us to lead with empathy and heart.

This Second Capricorn Full Moon offers us another chance to reclaim opportunities we thought were lost, dear reader! To make the most of this, let’s take some time for reflection, deeply looking at our goals so we can truly see which ones align with our long-term dreams. Under the light of this full moon, we get to rekindle our hopes and revive our sense of purpose, no matter how many times we’ve let it slip and fall through cracks made by our fears and insecurities.

By working with the energies of transformation (Pluto), innovation (Uranus), compassion (Neptune), and drive (Mars), we make significant strides in our personal and professional lives. Under the influence of Luna in her full regalia, we empower ourselves once more, thus allowing us to gain back the confidence we’ve lost through years of doubt, setbacks, and challenges. Seize this unique moment to move forward with a renewed sense of possibility, dear reader, knowing that true progress is achieved through strength, kindness, and most importantly, an unwavering belief in our own potential. ❤️
