Astrology for July 3-9, 2023© & the Supermoon

 


The first of four Super Moons in a row is this week that intensifies all things lunar which are first, emotions, feelings, how you’re bonded to others and everything important to you. In Capricorn the lunar peak at 7:36 AM brings a kind of heaviness to the world that’s not exactly welcome due to other celestial factors pulling you toward the need for hope and dreams of a better and certainly easier time ahead. This is partly due to alignment with Pluto and opposition to Mercury creating deep thinking and intensity.

A Supermoon is a new or full Moon that occurs with the moon at or near (within 90% of) its closest approach to Earth in a given orbit. Super Full Moons look brighter than ordinary full Moons because a Supermoon exceeds the disk size of an average-sized moon by up to 8% and the brightness of an average-sized full Moon by some 16%. It exceeds the disk size of a micro-moon (a year’s most distant and therefore smallest full Moon) up to 14% and the brightness of a micro-moon by some 30%. Contrast these moon distances to the average Moon distance of 238,900 miles / 384,472 km.

2024 Supermoons are:

  • ·         July 2-3: 224,895 miles / 361,934 km
  • ·         August 1: 222,158 miles / 357,530 km
  • ·         August 30-31: 222,043 miles / 357,344 km
  • ·         Sept 28-29: 224,658 miles / 361,552 km

This week Mercury is sextile Jupiter on Friday and trine Neptune on Sunday and in Cancer brings into play great dreams and interest in manifesting the absolute best. It’s good to begin noting your thoughts and consider reaching out to network with others of like mind so as to grow and nourish your creative and spiritual nature. These angles encourage you and help to see beyond everyday life and gives greater ease to connect with your higher mind and spiritual self. There’s ease of communication with spirit guides and other esoteric associations.

While the lunar tide wanes you may easily drift into ethereal waters for inspiration and inner awakening until on Sunday the Quarter Moon in Aries sparks your need to shift direction slightly so as to incorporate your individuality into your lifestyle and routine.

AFFIRMATION

These affirmations are composed based on current celestial placements. As a clinical hypnotherapist I’ve studied writing scripts for clients so the composition is written with the intent to allow connecting with the heavens and expanding awareness to be more in harmony for the highest good. Taking a moment to be still and ideally in a quiet place, or even when going to sleep, the reading or speaking of these may be helpful and benefit your soul journey. Even just seeing it can be beneficial. 

“My spirit is aligned with calm seas of harmony.”
