he New Moon with a partial solar eclipse (the first of three) is Friday, July 13, 2:47 AM GMT- PowerPath
This New Moon launches a month long period of intensity, change, breakthrough and opportunity to step up your game on many levels. During this time it is ultra important to focus on all the things that are working and that you appreciate in your life instead of letting yourself get bogged down in negativity.
Face challenges with compassion and kindness and remember that not everyone has the tools that you do to see the bigger picture.
It is easy to get swept up into the negative and to react to the injustices and imbalances and reactions of others. Don't take the bait. Bring love and gratitude into your interactions and actions whenever you can and give others the benefit of the doubt even if you don’t believe they deserve it. On a positive note, this is an incredible time to launch something new, pushing the edge of what you think you can accomplish. Take a risk, make a bid for power, step up and show up with more confidence and maturity. The new moon is a time to set intentions and make commitments to how you will stay your ground and be an example for others. And it is OK to ask for help. Support is everywhere. You just have to accept and receive it.
Blessings,
Lena

Cancer New Moon Solar Eclipse 2018
Sun and Moon in Cancer ~ 20º
Thursday, July 12, 8:47 PM Mountain Daylight Time (Friday, July 13, 2:47 AM Greenwich Mean Time)
Eclipse season is here to catalyze internal shift and movement in a direction of power. A bid for power requires an offering on your part. Most likely you will be sacrificing your old habits and ways of seeing the world as the biannual alignment of the Sun, Moon and Earth open the portals of reset allowing you to jettison old baggage and align yourself with the most current energies available.
With THREE eclipses – solar, lunar, solar, we have an extended season (Jul 12, Jul 27, Aug 11) of four weeks instead of two. The strongest will be the July 27 total eclipse of the Moon in Aquarius 4º at Full Moon. Eclipses happen when the New or Full Moons align with the Nodes and the Nodes are at 5º Leo/Aquarius. Cancer New Moon is at 20º so, it’s only close enough to the Nodes for a very partial solar eclipse, but on July 27 the Sun and Moon will be at 4º Leo/Aquarius within 1º of the Nodes and bam! you get a beautiful total lunar eclipse.
