The sun is moving into Leo on Friday, but what’s happening with the moon?
We all know how our moon placement affects our emotions. And we know how lunar transits and aspects affect our day. Let’s see how the moon is going to affect our week!
Monday, June 18
In the morning’s wee hours, the Pisces moon forms a sextile with Pluto in Capricorn. Under this sextile, our tender disposition reawakens. We feel every emotion deeply and distinctively. We desire to travel to new places where we have never been. Give in to these desires. Be open to new experiences.
Just minutes later, the moon forms a trine with Mercury in Cancer. Under this trine, we are open-minded and willing to learn. Our minds are sharp, and our speech is clear. At this time, we can easily influence others with our charisma and leadership qualities. However, it is important that we wield this power with great discernment. We want to keep our influence a positive one.
Around breakfast time, the moon moves into vivacious Aries. This moon reinvigorates our confidence and perseverance. We enthusiastically tackle projects both old and new, easy and difficult. We feel natural and uninhibited. Though on the surface, we may demonstrate a devil-may-care attitude, we have a sharp mind and keen senses.
An hour later, the moon forms a square with Venus in Cancer. Under this square, we may feel dissatisfied. We are impulsive yet restrained. We act on our emotions, but we find it hard to communicate our emotions. This may cause problems in our romantic relationships. We must take time to gather your thoughts so that we may adequately communicate with our partners.
This evening, the moon forms a conjunction with Jupiter in Aries. Under this conjunction, we trust our instincts. We are flourishing thanks to a wholesome work-life balance. Our relationships with our family, friends, and significant others are healthy and thriving. We are able to socialize with others and also enjoy our free time by ourselves.

No lunar transits or aspects today. The moon needs a rest.
Wednesday, July 20
Early this morning, the moon forms a sextile with Saturn in Aquarius. Now is not the time to be impetuous. We must set our intentions using great deliberation. We are taking ownership of the things that are in our control. Our organizational talent is thriving under this sextile. Now is a great time to lead a project at work or tackle any projects at home.
Around breakfast time, the moon forms a square with Pluto. Under this placement, we feel anxious and hypersensitive. At this time, getting lost in our imaginations may be tempting. A little wishful thinking never hurt anyone. But be careful not to indulge in escapist fantasies too much, or you might neglect your real-world obligations.
An hour later, the sun in Cancer forms a square with the moon. As earthlings, we hate to see our celestial parents fight. Under this half moon, we can face many obstacles in our personal and professional lives. We may feel uncomfortable in our own skin and around others. This discomfort can lead to public disputes.
Around lunchtime, the moon moves out of wild-card Aries and is welcomed by practical and dependable Taurus. Under this taurine moon, our family, security, and creature comforts are most important to us. This moon fuels the need to preserve and increase monetary gain.
Just remember to take a moment to enjoy time with your family. Maybe plan an outing or a game night. Stability is essential, but quality time is paramount.
This evening, the moon forms a square with Mercury in Leo. Under this square, we may not take full advantage of our talents or resources. We may feel insecure and cynical. It may be particularly difficult to hear constructive criticism. At this time, it may help to reflect on our own accomplishments. This reflection may help us build trust in our own decisions.
About an hour later, the moon forms a sextile with Venus. This is a truly delightful constellation to exist under. This sextile fills our lives with love and balance. Taurus helps us feel safe and secure with our romantic partners. While Pisces helps us to be gracious and considerate of others. We feel content and non-confrontational. Now is a wonderful time to consider starting a family or becoming active in your community.
Thursday, July 21
Around noon, the moon forms a conjunction with Mars in Taurus. Under this conjunction, we feel on edge and irritable. We must be mindful of these tendencies, or we can become argumentative or violent in the worst cases. Exercise and meditation can aid our stress relief since this transit can cause emotional and physical tension.
Friday, July 22
As we were sleeping, the moon formed a conjunction with Uranus in Taurus. With this conjunction, we are struggling to find our inner balance. We also may find ourselves falling back into bad habits. Under this placement, we may be very unresponsive to constructive criticism. On a lighter note, romantic affairs may pop up at this time. Through our tenacity may make us feel closed off, we must keep our hearts open.
At noon, the moon forms a square with Saturn. Under this placement, we find it difficult to hold onto the positivity we felt earlier in the day. We may feel depressed or unsatisfied with our current situation and find it difficult to express our true feelings.
A few hours later, the moon forms an impressive sextile with Neptune who is at home in Pisces. Under this sextile, our spirit and imagination take us to new heights. Watery Pisces is nourishing earthy Taurus, allowing our artistic talents to blossom. We have an in-depth understanding of art and enthusiastically explore our creative pursuits.
Later in the evening, the moon forms a trine with Pluto. Under this trine, emotions, and desires that have laid dormant within us are being brought to the surface. We crave adventure and new experiences. Now is the perfect time to eat at that new restaurant or participate in an activity you have never tried before. It may be fun to visit a new town and meet new people.
