Horoscopes
Aries
Familiarity, the world of the five senses, and comfort are your tonic today, dear Aries. This is a good time to tend to practical affairs and/or to reconnect with the natural world. Your emotional state is strengthened by feeling secure and independent, so that efforts to get to these states will be especially satisfying, even if they are small efforts. Keep your mind peaceful now, and you can learn and gain insights into recent events or problems. Configurations support these things.
Taurus
The Moon is in your sign all day, dear Taurus, and it’s forming mostly easy aspects, suggesting a stronger sense that you can make what you want out of the day. It also helps you to easily find channels for expressing yourself. You have a zest for action today and you have much personal presence – you won’t go unnoticed right now. Others tend to support you, and a love interest can be especially intrigued. Your ability to communicate effectively boosts social relationships. It’s a good time for relaxing recreation as well, or for taking a break to refresh and rejuvenate yourself by either doing the things you most enjoy doing or simply bypassing the things that leave you feeling drained.
Gemini
Good energy is with you for unwinding and detaching yourself emotionally from demanding situations, dear Gemini. This is a strong time for recuperation and regeneration if you can manage it. You may be in the need of more privacy, rest, or some other form of break until the Moon enters your sign tomorrow evening. You can come up with some great ideas about making money, doing business, and home improvement today; and work spent on solitary or private projects can benefit greatly. You can also have some personal epiphanies. Focusing on forgiveness can do wonders for you emotionally today.
Cancer
This is a strong day for cooperation, gaining support, and even solving a problem or two, dear Cancer. You might come to an important agreement, find others quite accommodating and agreeable, and communication comes easily. There is sincere interest in one another so that relationships get a nice boost. There are times when standing out or calling special attention to your unique qualities is beneficial, but today, it’s more about letting things flow around you, taking one for the team, and leaving your ego at the door so that you can truly enjoy others as your peers.
Leo
Others are drawn to you in subtle ways, and a gentle approach to the world serves you best today, dear Leo. Reputation is enhanced, particularly as you are clear in your value, both to the world and to individuals. The inner entrepreneur is alive and well today making this a good time for tending to business. You might also take action on a professional matter, and find the energy and gumption to push ahead. You could be in a position to take the lead on a matter, and this position always seems to become you!
Virgo
You are more spontaneous than usual today, dear Virgo, and creative self-expression comes easily and naturally right now. You certainly are drawn to people with similar ideals and outlook, but you are also happy to interact with people who can expand upon these things, or introduce you to new things or ideas. You are attracting positive, happy, and forward-looking people into your life right now. Current relationships are a little spicier. You might inspire somebody with an idea or a unique perspective on a matter.
Libra
This is a strong day for observing things you might normally miss, dear Libra. Even so, connections made can be rousing. Observing and learning rather than jumping into action tends to be favored now, but it is also a good time for taking action on private matters. As introspective as you may be now, don’t totally hide yourself away, however, as there is likely to be interesting and possibly important information circling around you. Forgiveness and compassion can be highlighted today. It’s a wonderful time for healing, particularly if you aim to let go of emotional baggage, grudges, or resentment – you have cosmic support for this today!
Scorpio
Close relationships are on your mind today, dear Scorpio. You could be feeling more confident about pursuing a relationship, or for making amends with those close to you. You are an expert “middle guy” or go-between right now. Your capacity for compassion is enhanced right now, and your intuition is heightened. It’s not the best time for acting entirely independently or for making executive decisions, as you tend to thrive on others’ input, whether or not you actually use it! Having company is what it’s about, and company that you trust.
Sagittarius
This is a good time for seeing and dealing with details, dear Sagittarius, and you may even enjoy the process today. Housework, organizing, or maintaining order in your life may be on the agenda, or at the very least the key to your emotional satisfaction at the moment. Getting the little things done helps free yourself up from guilt and worry. This is a strong day for gluing the pieces together, and feeling the satisfaction for having done so. You might also find yourself helping others or playing a supportive role, quite willingly.
Capricorn
Easy energy for fruitful, pleasing interactions with others is with you today, dear Capricorn, making cooperation a real potential now. Love feels warm, friendly, and even healing. You’re in the mood for special attention, and you are more likely to receive it if you express your own feelings sincerely and without expectation. For the time being, don’t try to think too far ahead. Figure things out one step at a time. Conservative planning is more likely to bring success in creative endeavors, as well as with a romance. Today has an easy kind of energy to it that doesn’t demand attention, but gets it anyhow.
Aquarius
The day holds good potential for feeling a real sense of inner peace and balance, dear Aquarius. You have a serene aura about you, and there is likely to be a chance to talk about difficult or complex emotional matters successfully, easily, and painlessly! Whether you’re relating on intellectual or emotional levels, you tend to know what to say, not in a superficial way, but due to a strong understanding. It’s a good time to rectify problems or misunderstandings if something needs repair. Share your vision with others – you’ll find a receptive audience.
Pisces
This can be a busy time of your month, dear Pisces, with the Moon influencing your communications sector. The Moon’s easy aspects today can point to a happy kind of “busy”, with good news to share or receive and the chance to get a whole lot of little things done and behind you. You might also make important connections with others. While the day tends to favor little jobs that require small levels of concentration, you can quite successfully move ahead a project that involves teamwork today, as all seem to be in agreement. A potentially healing conversation might occur with a partner or best friend.

Event: Tr-Tr Mar Pll Pal
Description: Transiting Mars Parallel Transiting Pallas
TAURUS STRONG
Stable and enduring, strong values, unyielding, earthy, acquisitive, strong desires. Can be stuck, stubborn, overly possessive, self-indulgent.
CANCER STRONG
Nurturing, protective, tenacious, emotional sensitive, watery, strong roots. Can be overly protective, unwilling to let go, timid, reclusive.
LEO STRONG
Self-confident, generous, warm-hearted, powerful leader, dramatic. Can be overly proud, vain, extravagant, arrogant.
AIR WEAK
We may have a difficult time being objective or detached. We may not be especially communicative.
WATER STRONG
We are more compassionate, emotional, and intuitive than usual, and we may react emotionally to situations, possibly at the expense of logic or practicality.
CARDINAL STRONG
We are ready to take action and to take on challenges, and can become frustrated with stagnant conditions.
MUTABLE WEAK
We can have a hard time adapting to changes and to others’ agendas.
LUNAR PHASE: THIRD QUARTER
Moon from 90 to 45 degrees behind the Sun.
We have strong beliefs and are likely to put them into action. We have the wisdom to know when to act, but sometimes can be inflexible.
The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on July 10th:
Note that when an aspect is applying, it has not yet happened but is within orb – it’s pending. When an aspect is separating, it has already happened/perfected and is moving away from the aspect. Depending on the speed of the planet/body involved, the aspect will have perfected, or will perfect, in a matter of hours (often the case with the Moon), days, months, and possibly years in the case of the very slow-moving outer planets and bodies.
Note that the Moon moves at a rate of approximately one degree every 2 hours, so that if an aspect involving is applying and has an orb of 5 degrees, the aspect will perfect (be exact) in about 10 hours. If the Moon is separating from an aspect with an orb of 2 degrees, it has already formed said aspect approximately 4 hours ago (since the following are positions at noon today, then it would have occurred at about 8 AM today).
**I suggest paying close attention to applying aspects. The energy of the aspect builds as it gets closer to exact. Once an aspect has happened, it’s over. Separating aspects are good to know for context, but in terms of energy that is with us today, applying aspects are most important. (This is the case for daily astrology influences involving inner planets, which pass quickly, and not natal astrology aspects, which are with us for a life time).
