On July 21st at 3:17 AM PDT the Sun and Moon oppose each other on their last degree of the Cancer/Capricorn axis. This rare occasion of two Full Moons in the same month and sign is a grand opportunity for all of us. On the first Full Moon of July we had a T-Square from Neptune, challenging us to see clearly what we wished to accomplish when the Moon was New in Capricorn on January 11th of this year. Were you confronted with your own behavior; whether your commitment kept you on target or Neptune's influence clouded your journey? Escapism is common here.
But this time the Sun and Moon have different lessons for us. The planet Mars at 0 degrees Gemini sextiles the Sun and trines the Moon. The aspect to the Sun will endow us with positive, vital, energetic, active energy. You will enjoy competition, and your initiative and self-confidence can make you a winner. The trine to the Moon gives us emotional permission to be assertive and confront difficulties in a direct, no-nonsense sort of way. You won’t tolerate self-pity or passivity, and you can be rather blunt with others' emotional problems. Part of you may want to say "stop crying and DO something about it.” A very different directive from the first Full Moon.
The Sun has a sextile from Uranus at 26 degrees Taurus, and the Moon is trine Uranus. The Sun’s aspect encourages you to not allow tradition, convention, or other people's expectations dictate how you are going to live your life. You’ll crave freedom, adventure, excitement, and discovery, and won’t be afraid of change. The aspect to the Moon gives you uninhibited and spontaneous consent to do something unexpected or humorous in order to loosen people up and get them out of their rut. You will crave emotional stimulation, excitement, surprises, and anything new.
Next is Neptune at 29 degrees Pisces, which now trines the Sun and sextiles the Moon. The trine gives your imagination a lift, where you are sensitive to anything colorful, beautiful, or magical. You’ll be attracted to artistic and creative pursuits, music, and mysticism. Your spiritual values will color your whole perspective and approach to life. And the sextile to the Moon will enlist the desire to bring beauty and harmony into your domestic life. Your sensitivity requires an atmosphere of peace, free of discord or dissonance. You will give or sacrifice much in order to avoid a fight and to "make everyone happy".
And last but not least is Pluto at 0 degrees Aquarius, which opposes the Sun and conjoins the Moon. Pluto is the planet of destruction
and reconstruction. When it opposes the Sun it makes for a willful, impassioned and sometimes fanatical feelings about your personal motives and desires. You have a need for power and recognition now, and the desire to be Somebody. Pluto says in order to accomplish your goals you may need a bit of transformation of who you thought you were to who you want to be. And Pluto conjunct the Moon is very intense; like a volcano, one minute you’ll seem quite peaceful and the next you are exploding with great force and unexpected fury. The intensity of your reactions may surprise even you. Your feelings and desires can be so compelling that you’ll do things against your better judgment and reason. You can also be very manipulative now, in a subtle way, affecting your personal relationships.

So where a Full Moon can alert us to our success or lack of it, in the Cancer/Capricorn axis we are reminded that 'content' and 'container' are like yin and yang; they constitute each other. The soft substance of the Cancer quality, emotional, sensitive, and vulnerable— needs the solid, structured, and objective qualities of Capricorn to contain it. We grow stronger when we have both in balance. So in order to use this second Full Moon opportunity we have the support of the planets mentioned here to finalize our attempts to see clearly how we can improve our self esteem by doing what we say whether it comes out of our minds and hearts compassionately or in an impassioned release of pent up energy. It’s really time for the truth to be told and the next versions of ourselves to be born. Be brave and honest and work through the consequences of your actions.
