We will shift gears overnight, slowing down a bit as Mars shifts from fast paced Aries into steady Taurus and Mercury goes from quick witted Gemini into thoughtful Cancer. These planets will sextile each other so the energy may feel a bit combined at first. Mercury is moving very quickly now and will only be in Cancer until July 19th. Mars is slower by comparison and remains in Taurus until August 20th.
When Mars shuffles into Taurus at 2:04 am, our ambitions become grounded in reality and our momentum is slowed to ensure we are setting up a solid foundation. This is a good time to start a fitness program that you want to stick to for the long term. Anger can become more physical now as well, try to exert your body to release pent up frustrations before you break something by accident or on purpose. Allow yourself to experience passionate moments while Mars goes through this sensuous sign.
Emotions come bubbling to the surface where we are able to find the words we need to talk or write about them after Mercury flows into Cancer at 2:25 am. Our thoughts and communications contain a tenderness as we are more sensitive to the emotions of others if we take our time to really listen right now. There is a nostalgic element to Cancer that can have us reconnecting with friends and family over the next two weeks. This is a very short visit so make the most of it, let others know how you feel.
