When it comes to the head and the heart, there’s really no debating which side you’ll choose this month. With the new moon solar eclipse happening in emotional Cancer, on July 2, 2019 at 12:16 pm PT, you’ll be encouraged to follow your heart more than ever in an effort to re-conceptualize your identity from the bottom up. But Lady Gaga isn’t the only one who can effortlessly remake her image over and over—you can too, especially with the help of this moon!
As you embark on this inner revolution, your priorities will shift in a major way. Instead of focusing on your responsibilities, it will nudge you to pay more attention to your heart’s desires.
What do you need to feel personally and emotionally fulfilled? The answer to this question could be the opposite from your natural instincts at this time—ones that may have you acting impulsively, keeping busy, or doing what’s expected of you. However, it’s important to temper those desires and spend time with yourself. Doing this will help you heal your inner child and let your emotions have their say, which will be a necessary step to your future development.
With Saturn (planet of foundation) now conjunct Pluto (planet of transformation) in Capricorn, the past few years may have felt tough. But this new moon solar eclipse is trying to gently teach you to release those old habits, patterns, and experiences which may have forced you to harden yourself.
There could be some difficult conversations on the horizon about what you truly need to be happy with Mercury (planet of communication) conjunct Mars (planet of passion) Mars in Leo, especially when nothing feels like it is happening in the way or timeframe you might want it to. You could also receive some unexpected news, or say something out of character.
Overall: Realize that your situation isn’t as bad or as stale as you may think it is, even if it feels like you are stagnant. There’s a lot going on inside you spiritually, emotionally and personally that is paving the way for a better future ahead. The inner work you do now will be key to help you build a strong foundation from which to build on in the future.
