July’s New Moon Eclipse takes places on 3rd July in Moonchild.
Astrologer, Yasmin Boland says quite frankly, it’s a pretty momentous week.
We are moving back into another eclipse season. The last eclipses we had were back towards the start of the year. Then in March we had the chaos of the planet of change, Uranus, moving from Aries into Taurus for a stay that will last up to 2026. So it hasn’t been the quietest time ever.
And it’s not going to get quiet anytime soon.
Let’s talk about eclipses to start with. They are times of massive change. The way I like to think of them is as a portal to another life that opens up for a brief moment in time. It’s up to us if we jump through or not.
If you’ve seen the movie Sliding Doors, you will know what I’m talking about.

No matter what star sign or rising sign you are, it’s a potentially very big month thanks to the eclipses this month. There are two of them.
What to do with a New Moon eclipse…
If you like to work with the Moon and you understand the power of doing so, you most certainly will not want to miss out on this month’s – it’s a New Moon eclipse!
On the one hand eclipses can be tough because they are more or less about shunting us back onto the path we are meant to be on. Think of it like this; before you incarnated this time around, your soul worked out its path and purpose, so that you can evolve. However if your ego has driven you off this path, the eclipse will sometimes very unceremoniously push you back towards where your soul wants to be.
The upshot of this is that toxic relationships can break up, bad jobs can dissolve into nothing, upsetting domestic situations can suddenly come to an end.
If what happens this month feels rough, know this; chances are that on some level, your soul set this up so you could learn whatever you need to. Of course, we all hope and pray that nothing too difficult besets anyone who reads this!
What does this mean for you …
Aries
In a nutshell, the coming six months promise changes in your private life and your home life, thanks to this week’s New Moon eclipse. Perhaps you’ve been living at home and you’re about to move in with friends. Or you’ve been living with friends and have decides to get a place on your own, or move in with your partner. For some, it’s a change to the family home, pure and simple. A house move. The property market might still be shaky, but your stars suggest this could be a great time to invest, if you can afford it without mortgaging yourself to the absolute hilt. There’s also a restart due for you with your family/personal life – particularly good news if you haven’t been getting on too well with your folks or partner. That can change now. Make it happen.

Taurus
This week brings a big gift with it; a New Moon eclipse in your Mind Zone this week, which is going to make it possible for you to draw a line under all that happened in the past, and move on. It’s a great time to stop driving yourself crazy with your thoughts and worries, if you’ve been obsessing. In the coming six months, you can also expect your ability to talk your way in or out of anything to improve enormously. Your brain, what you say and what you write will be super-charged, even if you’re normally uncomfortable expressing yourself. This applies whether you’re talking to a friend, lover, colleague or boss, writing reports, SMSes, emails or even a novel. Expect to be very busy. It’s all go! Read more.
Gemini
There are some powerful energies around this week and they could well leave you better off financially than you have been in a while. Expect at least one new source of income to open up for you this year. If you do want more cash, it’s crucial to realise that money is energy. It basically responds to our thoughts. If you under-sell yourself, people are unlikely to insist on paying you more (well, unless you’re really lucky and terribly charismatic!) If your self-image hasn’t recovered from a recent battering, take steps to change that, not just because it will boost your bank account but also because solid self-esteem is crucial. Start to stand up to others – see a professional counsellor about this if you think you need to. Read more.
Cancer
Your life can change as much as you want it to in the coming six months thanks to the eclipse in your sign this week. The New Moon eclipse coming up in your sign is a loud message to you that the time is ripe for you to take a gigantic leap into a new future. Have a look around you. Have things gone a bit sideways? Have you lost on the swings what you gained on the roundabouts? If so, don’t panic. This eclipse is your chance to take any part of your life which you know is not working and to sort it out. You’ll know what and how. Special caution: you need to let go of anyone or anything you know is dragging you down. Move on now and you’ll be able to do it on your terms. Read more.

So how do you feel about meditation? Intuition? Astrology? Angels? This month is all about opening up a door for you which – if you go through it – should help make you feel like life is taking on new meaning. And that is? The door to your spirituality. Indeed. Now is the time to do one of the following: take up meditation or yoga (you’ll be surprised at how centring it is), light a candle and talk to your Angels, do a self-hypnosis class, start to analyse your dreams, begin to trust your hunches more. You will be amazed at how much your intuition improves over the next few months if you just give the smallest of nudges. And sound intuition is useful in ALL walks of life. Anything esoteric is likely to interest you now. This is an eclipse in your Spirit Zone and it’s not to be ignored! Spooky but true. Read more.
Virgo
The New Moon eclipse now takes place in the part of your chart governing friends, acquaintances and the networks you belong to.

Or it could be something as simple as you joining a new yoga class and making a great new friend. The bottom line is that the people you meet now (or at least one of them) could have a big impact on your life. Also be aware that any wishes you make now are extra likely to come true. Read more.

If you’re in what you know is a dead-end relationship, don’t wait a moment longer to knock it on the head, so that you clear the way for the love of your life to enter. He/she could turn up during this cycle, so don’t panic about being alone if you’re currently single. Happily attached? This New Moon eclipse promises to take your relationship up a notch.

Aquarius
How do you feel about your current 9 to 5 set up? Hopefully you want change because that’s what’s forecast for you in the coming six months, thanks to this week’s New Moon eclipse. There are changes afoot in the way you spend your days. For some a whole career direction will mean that your daily routines are altered forever.
