Astrologically around the new moon of July 14, 2026
On July 13, the Sun is at the same degree as the star Castor. The theme associated with this alignment is: seeking the brighter side of a story or situation and trying to understand the tension that has arisen from polarity. This makes it a good day to reflect on whether you are experiencing any inner contradictions. How can you bring opposing parts of yourself closer together? How can you juggle (play with rather than struggle) with two different ways of living, perspectives, desires, or beliefs? Opposites can teach you something, and through that understanding you can begin to resolve them within yourself. Perhaps you have been holding onto an idea that once served you well but has since become outdated or no longer applies. Which belief is ready to be reviewed so that you can experience more ease? Try to build a bridge between seemingly incompatible viewpoints and move toward greater inner unity.
The New Moon is beside the Sun in Cancer, with Mercury just one degree away. Make time for yourself, tune in to what you truly need, and avoid leaving yourself too vulnerable. The world may feel harsher than usual, so be aware of your personal boundaries and avoid adapting too much to external expectations. Mercury is retrograde from June 29 through July 24, making your inner voice potentially clearer than rational analysis. Consider beginning the day quietly, listening to whatever naturally arises within you. Rather than immediately taking in outside information (for example, by checking your phone) first notice what you need, what insights emerge, or which feelings deserve your attention that day. Also be mindful that, in caring for or protecting others, you do not become overly nurturing or take on responsibilities that are not yours. You may need to express what you want or need yourself, because not everyone can read your mind…
From July 19 through July 23, Jupiter reaches 4 degrees Leo and forms harmonious aspects with Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. These three outer planets influence the collective and the broader collective timeline. Jupiter acts like a gateway through which optimism, opportunities for freedom, and good fortune can flow. The effort you invest during these days may have positive effects that unfold over the coming years. Set a clear intention and give it direction – this helps determine the path ahead. Your actions can strengthen your intention, while distractions may cause you to lose your way. The same principle applies on a larger scale: the developments and decisions initiated during these days may continue to shape the collective in beneficial ways over the years to come, provided they remain grounded in realism.
