Noctilucent Clouds over Florida

Credit & Copyright: Pascal FouquetExplanation: These clouds are doubly unusual. First, they are rare noctilucent clouds, meaning that they are visible at night — but only just before sunrise or just after sunset. Second, the source of these noctilucent clouds is actually known. In this rare case, the source of the sunlight-reflecting ice-crystals in the upper atmosphere can be traced back to the launch of a nearby SpaceX rocket about 30 minutes earlier. Known more formally as polar mesospheric clouds, the vertex of these icy wisps happens to converge just in front of a rising crescent Moon. The featured image — and accompanying video — were captured over OrlandoFloridaUSA about a week ago. The bright spot to the right of the Moon is the planet Jupiter, while the dotted lights above the horizon on the right are from an airplane.

Moon Alert

Avoid shopping or important decisions until 10:15 AM EDT today (7:15 AM PDT). After that, the Moon moves from Leo into Virgo.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

It will please you to do something so that you feel you’re better organized today and on top of your game. This could be something related to your job or any work that you do. It might also be something related to your health or even taking care of a pet. Make an extra effort today.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

This is a playful, fun-loving day for you. Do something to give yourself a treat today. Take time out of your day for a fun lunch, a walk in a park or checking out fun shops and antique stores. Basically, you want to play and relax today. Romance is also favoured!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Home, family and your private life are your priority today. Although you’re focused on earnings, and your relations with siblings and relatives are positive; nevertheless, today you need to take a breather. Cocoon at home if you can. Attend to your own personal needs.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Today you have strong feelings about needing to be heard by someone. You have something to say and you want someone to listen. (You certainly don’t want to spend time in meaningless chitchat about the weather.) You want to find someone to confide in with whom you can share your ideas.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You’re keeping a low profile; however, with both Mercury and Venus in your sign, you feel sociable! Today, money ideas, cash flow and earnings will be a focus. At a deeper level, you might give some thought to your values and what really matters in your life. It’s easy to forget and let time go by.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Today the Moon is in your sign, which will make you a bit more emotional than usual. However, the good news is that when the Moon is in your sign (which occurs for 2 1/2 days every month) your luck improves! Why not ask the universe for a favour?

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

It’s a curious thing because although you’re high viz. and schmoozing and being friendly with groups and acquaintances; nevertheless, today you might want your privacy and a chance to catch your breath. Quietly on your own.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You might have an important conversation with a friend today, perhaps a female or a member of a group? People will listen to you because both Mercury and Venus are at the top of your chart making you appear attracted as well as informed. (It’s a nice bonus.)

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Today personal details about your private life seem to be public for some reason. (Do be aware of this in case you have to do some damage control.) This could relate to financial matters or something based on a loan or mortgage. Meanwhile, travel ideas appeal!

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Because you have a strong sense of adventure today, you want to do something different. Perhaps shake things up a bit. Therefore, travel if possible. Or be a tourist in your own city? You’ll be pleased by learning or studying something new, as well.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You’re working hard. However today, you might be focused on secret material or private financial matters, especially related to banking, taxes, debt and inheritances. Hopefully, this can help to restore order at home.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Today you will have to go more than halfway to get along with others because the Moon is opposite your sign. (That’s just the way it works.) It’s not a big deal. This just requires a little friendly cooperation. You can do this.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Tom Hanks (1956) shares your birthday today. You’re energetic, enthusiastic, and you want a lot out of life. You’re curious and love to learn. This is a year of service to others, especially to family. Therefore, take care of your mind, body and spirit. Perhaps a personal makeover? Personalize your home with small items.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

You shouldn’t count too much on things that are outside of your control, especially when they depend on other people as well.

Do what you can do and just allow yourself some space to observe and only intervene when you are ought to. Leave your desire to control out today and you won’t stress for anything.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

There might be some issues and stingy matters in your couple today that you will have to address but the more you are stubborn, the more you have to lose.

So give something from you if you expect compromises from others as well and be patient and observing in regard to things that cannot get solved over night.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

This is a great day to make certain things clear and to set some boundaries in areas where you had troubles lately.

Whether it is with your partner at home or with some stubborn colleagues at work, there are chances for you to make yourself clearly understood and to see things move in your direction if you use diplomacy but also are direct.

You can also read this special Gemini Daily Horoscope.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You seem to be quite romantic today but this doesn’t necessarily guarantee that you will be in a good mood as well.

You are sensible and would like to share your feelings but most natives, although committed won’t manage to attain that kind of connection they expect for this day and will feel quite disappointed.

You can also read this special Cancer Daily Horoscope.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

This isn’t the happiest period for you but you’ve seen and went through worse so you will be fine. Busy at work and with a few personal pressures on your head at home as well.

This is going to be a difficult recipe to endure. The truth however is somewhere in the middle and it will take you a while until you figure it properly.

You can also read this special Leo Daily Horoscope.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You will see that results for your work will come but you need to be patient and objective. You can’t expect miracles over night especially if you know deep inside that you haven’t done everything you could have.

Other than that, quite peaceful and committed you appear to be and this will make you more attractive to other people.

You can also read this special Virgo Daily Horoscope.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Some things or project you might have worked on are nearing towards an end and you are not feeling in any way content or accomplished, regardless of their good results.

You are mostly melancholic and maybe considering what you need to do next and this coming after a busy period, now simply leaves you baffled.

You can also read this special Libra Daily Horoscope.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You seem to be enjoying your love life, some natives more than they should given that they are not focusing properly at work.

However, it is good that there is someone close to your heart and someone to bring sunshine on your street as well. Enjoy this and don’t think too much about the future because this is where clouds are gathering.

You can also read this special Scorpio Daily Horoscope.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You need to be more careful with what you are sharing with people you just met and try not to reveal everything about you in one go.

You do seem close to many people this Tuesday and would like to build strong connections but maybe you need to be more patient and wait for those people to make a step as well.

You can also read this special Sagittarius Daily Horoscope.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

This is going to be quite a difficult day in terms of work load and you will probably feel as if it is not ending any more.

However, your friends will be there to support you and surely will transform at least the evening in a pleasant experience if you leave all stress aside and accept their invitation and go out some place fun.

You can also read this special Capricorn Daily Horoscope.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

The sun is going to come out on your street as well but will probably take a very dark morning for you to then enjoy it properly.

Don’t expect too many results and advancement in the first half of the day but do expect for the right people to come to your rescue. The better relations you have with your superior, the easier it is going to be.

You can also read this special Aquarius Daily Horoscope.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Some projects might go tumbling down on you this Tuesday and this will surely unmotivate you.

But there aren’t that many reasons to be sad because if you would take a closer look to what is going on you will understand that faith is simply cleaning up your way of certain things that have been blocking you for some time now.

Exoplanet Zoo: Other Stars

Illustration Credit & Copyright: Martin Vargic, Halcyon MapsExplanation: Do other stars have planets like our Sun? Surely they do, and evidence includes slight star wobbles created by the gravity of orbiting exoplanets and slight star dimmings caused by orbiting planets moving in front. In all, there have now been over 5,500 exoplanets discovered, including thousands by NASA‘s space-based Kepler and TESS missions, and over 100 by ESO‘s ground-based HARPS instrument. Featured here is an illustrated guess as to what some of these exoplanets might look like. Neptune-type planets occupy the middle and are colored blue because of blue-scattering atmospheric methane they might contain. On the sides of the illustration, Jupiter-type planets are shown, colored tan and red from the scatterings of atmospheric gases that likely include small amounts of carbon. Interspersed are many Earth-type rocky planets of many colors. As more exoplanets are discovered and investigated, humanity is developing a better understanding of how common Earth-like planets are, and how common life might be in the universe.

July 8, 2024 Current Moon Phase and Planetary Positions for the Northern Hemispheres

 

Source: nineplanets.org

Moon Phase

The current moon phase for today is the Waxing Crescent phase.

On this day, the moon is 2.49 days old and 6.12% illuminated with a tilt of 143.385°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 396,404.82 km and the moon sign is Leo.

The Moon phase for today is a Waxing Crescent phase. This is the phase where the moon started to become visible again after the New Moon.

In this part of the moon cycle, the Moon is moving away from the Sun and is becoming more and more illuminated by sunlight. In this phase, the moon will go from 0.1% to 49.9% illuminated before reaching the First Quarter phase.

In the Waxing Crescent phase the moon rises before noon in the east, transits the meridian before sunset, before setting in the west before midnight.

The Waxing Crescent phase, like all moon phases, will last for just over 7 days. The actual length will vary because of the elliptical shaped orbit of the moon. The moon is close to the Sun in the sky and the right edge will become brighter as it approaches 50% illumination and the First Quarter phase

Fun fact: although only a small part of the Moon is illuminated in the Waxing Crescent phase, you can still sometimes see the rest of moon as faintly visible. This is known as “earthshine” or Da Vinci glow and is a result of sunlight being reflected off the Earth and back to the Moon.

Moon age: 2.49 days

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Money is everything you will think of today despite not necessarily lacking or having any big troubles with it.

You can also read this special Taurus Daily Horoscope.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You seem to be very focused on your education today and even sign up for classes or similar. For the natives that are trying to continue their education this is going to be quite an emotional day as they won’t know very well what they are getting themselves into.

Other than that, quite a peaceful beginning of the week.

You can also read this special Gemini Daily Horoscope.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You seem to be on the run this week beginning but surely isn’t to get as many things done as possible. Most likely you are trying to run away from responsibilities and apparently this time, the stars are going to be nice with you and let you have your way.

At the same time you will see that when it comes to your personal life, some things cannot be avoided.

You can also read this special Cancer Daily Horoscope.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You are trying to refrain yourself from too many comments and as well not get in the way of anyone but apparently this is not the best way to deal with this Monday.

Just get out there and say what you think, you will be surprised of how openly people will meet your ideas and what other benefits might come up out of this.

You can also read this special Leo Daily Horoscope.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

This Monday will probably surprise you with some travel related activities and although at the beginning you might view all this with reservation, eventually you will be won over.

Meanwhile, there shouldn’t be a bad idea if you focused more on the research part of your daily activities and try to gain as much information as possible.

You can also read this special Virgo Daily Horoscope.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

It appears that this Monday is going to temporarily shut off the energy tap and you will have to dose carefully the resources that you have left.

Can’t tell you exactly until when it will be shut but I can assure you that you will feel more tired than usual and this will get on the nerves of people in your family who were counting on you.

You can also read this special Libra Daily Horoscope.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You aren’t completely relaxed and not only you can’t understand why but people around are becoming increasingly irritated with your attitude.

There might be some things that can show up and help you relax but I wouldn’t count on them and instead I would try to find the exact reasons why you are feeling this way and address that.

You can also read this special Scorpio Daily Horoscope.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

I know you are on a rush this Monday trying to get over with a lot of things in a small amount of time but maybe this won’t be that easily possible and maybe you will have to go through the normal amount of time.

As a plan B I would suggest that you don’t allocate tight deadlines to activities you are not sure of so you can avoid any crashes.

You can also read this special Sagittarius Daily Horoscope.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You should count more on the actual facts that are happening right under your nose than believe what others are saying today.

So as long as you don’t see it with your eyes, I’d say not count on that. Even people you truly trust might turn out to be a bit deceitful today or there is a high risk of misunderstanding so everything points in the same direction.

You can also read this special Capricorn Daily Horoscope.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You might want to avoid getting legally involved in a certain contract today, even if this has been discussed for some time.

Maybe it shouldn’t be a bad idea to allow time to read it again and understand better even the small print. Other than that, you seem to be quite convincing this Monday so it won’t take you long to delay things.

You can also read this special Aquarius Daily Horoscope.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Quite a convincing day this Monday but you will be the one doing the talking so do expect some hard times if you don’t find the right focus and energy to sustain that.

Also, you shouldn’t let yourself accept deals that you don’t consider fair no matter how many promises are being made to you in respect to the future.

Spell For Sunday – Wish Box: How to Create a Manifestation Box for Your Dreams

(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER)

Are you looking for a fun and creative way to bring your magickal intentions to life? If so, then making a manifestation box might be just the thing. With this DIY project, you can infuse your spells with an extra boost of power and increase the likelihood that they will come true. Whether you are new to witchcraft or already consider yourself a master practitioner, this tutorial will teach you how easy it is to make a manifestation box to your unique needs.

Wish Box: How to Create a Manifestation Box for Your Dreams

How To Make A Manifestation Box

Witches and pagans have used variations of this magickal tool for centuries, and today we’re going to help you make one of your very own. But first – why exactly would someone want to make a wish box?

Why Should You Make A Manifestation Box?

Manifestation boxes, also known as wish boxes, are visual tools that can help you bring your dreams and desires to life. The idea is to write down your wishes on paper and place them in the box, creating an intentional energy for drawing them into reality. Not only does this practice make making wishes tangible, but it also keeps our intentions contained in a physical space. This allows us to focus better on attracting our desires. Furthermore, manifestation boxes provide a place of inspiration and reassurance. With reminders of our hopes and dreams tucked away in the box, we can be sure that we always have a source of motivation within arm’s reach when times get tough.

A manifestation or wish box should be seen as less of a physical object, but rather a reminder of the power that you have to manifest your life’s desires. By creating this special sacred space and complimenting it with your desired affirmations and dreams, you remind yourself of what is possible with conscious thought and intention.

Remember that every day is an opportunity to manifest the world we each desire. Whether it’s your dream job, a new pet, or all of your heart’s desires, a wish box is a tool to help bring what you want into existence. With the right manifestation box, anything is possible. So, what would you manifest with a wish box?

You Will Need

A box with a lid

A sheet of paper and a pencil

That’s it! Feel free to add personal touches to your box such as paint, studs, rhinestones, colored paper, or whatever you see fit!

Cast A Wish Box Spell

Consider creating your manifestation box on either a full or waxing moon to draw in your desires. Your wish box is a spell, so feel free to use items with correspondences that will aid in your intention.

Iridescent Clouds over Sweden

Image Credit: Goran StrandExplanation: Why are these clouds multi-colored? A relatively rare phenomenon in clouds known as iridescence can bring up unusual colors vividly — or even a whole spectrum of colors simultaneously. These polar stratospheric clouds also, known as nacreous and mother-of-pearl clouds, are formed of small water droplets of nearly uniform size. When the Sun is in the right position and, typically, hidden from direct view, these thin clouds can be seen significantly diffracting sunlight in a nearly coherent manner, with different colors being deflected by different amounts. Therefore, different colors will come to the observer from slightly different directions. Many clouds start with uniform regions that could show iridescence but quickly become too thick, too mixed, or too angularly far from the Sun to exhibit striking colors. The featured image and an accompanying video were taken late in 2019 over OstersundSweden.

July 7, 2024 Current Moon Phase and Planetary Positions for the Northern Hemispheres

Source: nineplanets.org

Moon Phase

The current moon phase for today is the Waxing Crescent phase.

On this day, the moon is 1.46 days old and 2.09% illuminated with a tilt of 131.981°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 392,579.82 km and the moon sign is Leo.

The Moon phase for today is a Waxing Crescent phase. This is the phase where the moon started to become visible again after the New Moon.

In this part of the moon cycle, the Moon is moving away from the Sun and is becoming more and more illuminated by sunlight. In this phase, the moon will go from 0.1% to 49.9% illuminated before reaching the First Quarter phase.

In the Waxing Crescent phase the moon rises before noon in the east, transits the meridian before sunset, before setting in the west before midnight.

The Waxing Crescent phase, like all moon phases, will last for just over 7 days. The actual length will vary because of the elliptical shaped orbit of the moon. The moon is close to the Sun in the sky and the right edge will become brighter as it approaches 50% illumination and the First Quarter phase

Fun fact: although only a small part of the Moon is illuminated in the Waxing Crescent phase, you can still sometimes see the rest of moon as faintly visible. This is known as “earthshine” or Da Vinci glow and is a result of sunlight being reflected off the Earth and back to the Moon.

Today you’re optimistic and upbeat! Because you’re in such a positive frame of mind, you will be happy. Not only that, others will enjoy your company because people like to be around happy people.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Financial matters will benefit you today. Keep your eyes open. You might see ways to boost your income; however, if you’re spending money, you might be pleased with your purchases. Something to do with friends and groups might also benefit you in practical or financial terms.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

This is a lovely day because the Moon is in your sign dancing with lucky Jupiter, which encourages domestic peace and happiness and a positive outlook. This is also a good time for any kind of business, especially dealing with groups or friends. (You’ll be laughing all the way to the bank.)

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

This is a feel-good day because the Moon is hiding in your chart in a very pleasant place. That’s why you have a warm feeling in your tummy. Personally, you’re excited about big plans that you can see opening up for you in the near future. Life is good.

At the same time you need to be careful to the way you are spending your money and running any kind of project you might be involved in because you tend to be quite despotic and people don’t often like that.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You seem to be very energetic today but at the same time you might let yourself quickly influenced by others and this will soon reduce your productivity.

Don’t listen as much to what they have to say, only if they are people you surely trust. Have more confidence in yourself and as long as you haven’t tried something on your own don’t admit it can’t be done.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

This is going to be a day in which you focus on your family and even chase them just to get the chance to spend some time with them.

Although it might look like a good idea to you, for some of them it might mean interrupting or delaying their own plans and this surely won’t make them happy or too responsive to your ideas.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You might wish to have more energy than you do today and would like to get involved in more things but will not end up doing so perhaps and this will bring your mood down.

Don’t take it on everyone else because this isn’t their fault but do make sure you have tried all it takes to have a good day and only then complain.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Financially speaking this might be quite a difficult day with you not being able to tend to all the things you would like to do because you might be on a tight budget actually.

Instead of complaining and spoiling not only your fun but also that of those around, maybe you should find ways to go round this minor setback.

All Signs

Mercury retrograde alert: Mercury will be retrograde for August, so now is the time to buy ground transportation (cars, trucks, bikes), computers and cell phones. The sooner the better because by July 21, Mercury will start slowing down before it goes retrograde on August 4. Forewarned is forearmed! Meanwhile, this week, we have boundless energy to apply to problem-solving and brainstorming brilliant ideas. Yay! Cooperation with others and the courage to think big will bring productivity and results. This means we can get a lot done! But lo! Thursday will be one of the most romantic days of the year! It will overflow with passion and poetry. Make plans to do something with that special person in your life. My bathroom mirror will be covered in kisses.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

This is a wonderful week for hard work and productivity. You’ll make meaningful progress doing home repairs, home renovations or home improvements. It’s a productive time to explore real-estate opportunities as well as real-estate speculation. Home businesses will be efficient and productive. Meanwhile, discussions with family members, especially parents and older relatives, will be helpful to you. This is a playful week for you as well! Although some of you will have ambitious ideas about vacations, the hospitality industry, and anything to do with the entertainment world. Entertain at home on Thursday, which is a loving, idealistic, romantic day. Light candles. Pop some bubbly.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

This is a busy pleasant week. With Mars still in your sign, you’re pumped with energy! Nevertheless, with Venus in your House of Communications, you’ll be sweetness and light with everyone. (This is a powerful combination that will get what you want.) Enjoy schmoozing with others, especially siblings. Plans with family are ambitious and exciting. (This might apply to anything you want to do with family members including plans for repairs and home renovations.) Someone older, perhaps a friend or a member of a group, will have practical advice for you this week. Listen because it might be helpful to you. Thursday is a wonderful romantic day! You’ll feel so good, you’ll appreciate being alive and be grateful for your surroundings.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

This is a strong money week. For starters, you’re enthusiastic this week, which means you’re entertaining big ideas, some of which might be business related, especially about how to boost your income. In addition, you can also attract money to you this week, so be on the lookout for this welcome opportunity. Right now, you impress bosses, parents and authority figures with your practical ideas and self-discipline. Don’t hesitate to share your thoughts about reorganizing things or establishing an overall plan for making something run more smoothly. Although Thursday is a lovely, romantic day, you might also want to purchase art objects and beautiful things like lovely clothing or jewelry. Enjoy!

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

This will be productive week for you, which means you will get a lot done. In part, this is because you have long-range practical plans. In addition, advice about legal matters and possibly medical or educational issues will turn out to be beneficial for you. Some of you will also make long-range travel plans for this year. Meanwhile, you’re optimistic because you have big money ideas and hopes for the future. “There’s gold in them thar hills!” Physical activity and competition with others might rev your engines. Do make time on Thursday to enjoy romance and lovely interactions with others, especially people who are different or from other cultures because this will be rewarding.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

This is a productive week. You might choose to work alone or behind the scenes. Perhaps others might not even be aware of your accomplishments. (No matter.) Despite your penchant for privacy this week, you will be enthusiastic about sharing your overall plans for the future with someone. That’s because you feel optimistic about many possibilities. Business negotiations with others will be successful. This is actually a great week to study something that intrigues you. Thursday is a romantic day; however, your compassion and sympathy for those who are less fortunate will also be strong. Do what you can because you are a generous sign. (Remember: True generosity is giving what is needed.)

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You’re popular! This week you might have serious, practical discussions with a partner or close friend. These discussions could be about achieving practical goals in the future or securing something so that it is more dependable. Because you have a strong desire to travel, as well as explore further education, these discussions could relate to these areas as well. However, it’s not just that you are in a practical frame of mind (which you are) – this week, you are also quietly confident and enthusiastic about something. This is why relations with others, especially friends and creative contacts, will be quite beautiful and personally rewarding. Be open to sweet romance on Thursday.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Hello Libra! You still look fabulous in the eyes of others because the Sun is at the top of your chart (which happens once a year for four weeks) and this symbolizes that you’re in a flattering spotlight. In addition, this week others will see you as practical, reliable, conscientious and honest. (An excellent game face.) Obviously, you can use this to negotiate with others or ask for what you want, especially if it is work-related. Interactions with younger people, whether they are friends, acquaintances or members of groups will be upbeat and exciting. You might learn something new. Meanwhile, Thursday’s romantic energy could boost a flirtation with a boss or a romance with someone older or more established. (Someone is impressed by you.)

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This is a high-energy time for you because you’re excited about life and looking for ways to expand your world through travel or further education. You want to make something happen! In particular, you might have ideas related to the arts, publishing, the media or reaching out to others in a special way. You might share your ambitious ideas with bosses and important people to get their feedback. This week in particular, because your appreciation of beauty is heightened, you’ll be fascinated by everything to do with the arts as well as beautiful ideas, ideologies and concepts. Many of you will become romantically involved with someone from another culture, certainly someone “different.”

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This is a propitious time for you because financial advantages are waiting in the wings for you. For example, money, inheritances, gifts and advantages from others might come to you. You might see ways to solidify your home scene or improve where you live in a way that secures your future. You might be enthusiastic about studying and learning something new. What excites you might be something to do with travel or dealing with foreign countries. It might also be a publishing project or a chance to get further education. You’re working exceptionally hard now but you are accomplishing a lot. This Thursday offers you wonderful opportunities for passionate romance and warm affection, which will be meaningful. No question.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Your relationships with partners (personal and professional) and close friends are important to you right now. Many of you are having serious discussions that have long-term benefits or repercussions. In addition, conversations and dealings with inheritances, shared property and jointly-held assets will benefit you. In fact, this is an excellent time to ask for an increase to your budget, or for better equipment related to your job because you will likely get it. Work-related travel is likely for many of you as well. Do make plans to do something special on Thursday with someone you care about because this is a sweet, affectionate, romantic day where feelings are idealized. Your dealings with someone will be meaningful and gratifying.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Issues related to your job will be rewarding for you this week. For starters, you will be focused and willing to work hard. You will pay attention to detail. You will want to get better organized and you will have a long-range view of things. Much of your planning will be related to earnings and assets. Fortunately, your discussions with a friend or a partner will encourage you to think big. You might see that some of the reasons you have held back from doing something were simply in your own head. Meanwhile, increased activity and confusion on the home front require your attention. (If you create better order at home, every aspect of your life will benefit.) A work-related romance will spring up for some of you – definitely.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

This week is romantic, playful and fun-loving! Give yourself permission to enjoy life and take some time off for social outings, sports, as well as opportunities to enjoy the arts and playful times with children. Work-related travel is likely for many of you. Meanwhile, something might trigger big ideas that you want to explore that are related to your job, and in a few cases, these ideas might be related to your health. It will be easy for you to express yourself to others because your conversational style is direct and convincing! Meanwhile, Thursday is one of the most romantic days of the year and you’re in the mood for romance!

4 July 2024 Current Moon Phase for the Southern Hemisphere

Southern Hemisphere

4 July 2024

The current moon phase for July 4th, 2024 is the Waning Crescent phase.

On this day, the moon is 27.86 days old and 3.35% illuminated with a tilt of -37.619°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 380,993.99 km and the moon sign is Gemini.

The Moon phase for July 4th, 2024 is a Waning Crescent phase. This is the phase where the moon is less than 50% illuminated but has not yet reached 0% illumination (which would be a New Moon).

In this part of the moon cycle, it is getting closer and closer to the Sun as viewed from Earth and the night side of the Moon is facing earth with a decreasingly thin crescent being illuminated.

The waning (shrinking) crescement Moon will rise at around midnight, transit the meridian after sunrise, before setting after noon. This phase is best viewed 1-2 hours before sunrise and is a great time to see the features of the Moon’s surface. Along the illuminated crescent you can see the craters and mountains of the moon casting long shadows.

The Waxing Gibbous phase, like all moon phases, will last for just over 7 days. The actual length will vary because of the elliptical shaped orbit of the moon. During this Waxing Gibbous phase the moon will rise in the east in the mid- to late-afternoon and will be high in the eastern sky at sunset.

Assuming it’s a clear night, the Waxing Gibbous moon will then be visible through most of the night before setting just before sunrise.

Fun fact: the illuminated side of a waning crescent moon is always pointed eastwards, towards the sunrise.

Phase: Waning Crescent

Moon age: 27.86 days

Moon Alert

There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today. The Moon is in Gemini.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Don’t go looking for trouble today because it can easily find you. Steer clear of arguments with authority figures, siblings, relatives and neighbours. Likewise, parents must be patient with kids who are having hissy fits or meltdowns. It’s one of those days.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Avoid power struggles with bosses, parents and authority figures, especially the police today because things could get nasty in a New York minute. You might also have financial challenges or someone older might create problems for you, especially a friend or a member of a group.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

This is a poor day to ask for permission or approval from parents and authority figures. Their response will likely be, “Talk to the hand.” Meanwhile, be smart and avoid controversial topics when talking to neighbours, siblings and relatives because you might be surprised at the response. Take it easy.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

People might be grumpy today, including you. This is not necessarily the case but there is a strong chance because the vibes are sort of negative today. Be smart and avoid power struggles about financial matters, earnings, cash flow and something you own. Postpone these discussions for another day.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Today you’re obsessed about getting to the bottom of something. You will leave no stone unturned. However, this could create an argument with a spouse, partner or friend. In fact, a dispute with a friend about shared property might make things even worse. Stay chill.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

By nature, you’re an excellent researcher because you have a wonderful eye for detail; plus, you have an organized mind. Today is the perfect day to ferret out any kind of hidden information or discover solutions to old problems because you won’t give up until you find what you’re looking for. Be polite with authority.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Steer clear of controversial subjects today because these discussions will discourage you. In fact, discussions with friends and groups might also become obsessive about something. Admittedly, you might be right in the middle. Don’t go overboard. And don’t promise more than you can deliver.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Power struggles with police, parents and authority figures might take place today unless you pull back a little and demonstrate grace under pressure. Don’t get involved! Arguments about shared possessions or shared property might be nasty. Stay chill.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Quite a few people are a bit obsessed today, which is why this is a poor day to discuss controversial subjects like politics and religion. You might even be at odds with a partner or close friend about a domestic issue. Distance yourself from these difficulties. Stay positive. (And happy.)

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Discussions about inheritances, shared property, taxes and debt might become intense today because people are obsessively focused about what they want. This could create difficulties for you with someone at work. Possibly even difficulties related to your health? Avoid these problems if you can.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Be patient with partners and close friends today because it’s easy to go off track and be at loggerheads. Social occasions might be challenging. Likewise romance or something to do with your kids might also be problematic. Look for a win-win solution. Don’t be part of the problem.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

You might be focused about work-related issues today (or something to do with your health or even a pet). If so, you can use this energy to accomplish a lot. Or, this strong, even compulsive energy, could get you in trouble. Be patient with family today. Look for the good in a situation.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Tom Cruise (1962) shares your birthday today. You’re philosophical, authoritative and observant about your surroundings. You’re an idealist who is interested in people. This is a year of completion and endings. Take inventory of your life. It might be time to let go of people, places and things from the past that held you back.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

This is going to be a day with great potential for natives who prepared their lessons beforehand but a difficult day for all the other natives who are still struggling or who decided to leave things to faith.

Today is in no way a day where you leave things unattended or just hope for the best, because you will be punished for that.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You are going to be quite humorous today and always prepared with a good word and surely those around you will appreciate that.

Meanwhile, you will also have to struggle a bit to maintain your optimism, especially in case you don’t really have a plan B to meet the changes that are going to take place later on.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You seem to be quite energetic and don’t really mind what you have to do today, regardless of whether you used to like this activity or you dread it.

Maybe there is a bit of love going on and cause of this good mood of yours. Just stick to this and make sure you count your blessings because this announces to be a good day.

You can also read this special Cancer Daily Horoscope.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

The current disposition won’t ask you too many things about your plans for the day, especially not before managing to ruin them.

So be careful what you plan on doing and if things are not important, maybe it’s not such a bad idea to postpone them. However, if you do have something important to solve today, make sure you also have a plan B.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You need not count too much on technology today because it will probably act a bit funny around you. Try to be as dynamic as usual and mind your own business but at the same time keep an eye on things you aren’t sure of.

In terms of communications, always check whether your emails have been sent properly, especially in the first hours of the morning.

You can also read this special Virgo Daily Horoscope.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

If you have been postponing a certain event for long now, for instance a visit at the doctor or dealing with some bureaucratic things, maybe it’s time you confront your fears or anxiety and just go with it.

You will be surprised by the fact it might not be as bad as you’d imagined, plus the very enjoyable relief you will feel afterwards.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Try not to repeat some past mistakes today, especially because we are referring to some practical matters.

Meanwhile you can also work in a very productive manner if you just leave other thoughts aside and this will only require just a bit of motivation from you. Other than that, quite a peaceful day without too much trouble if you temper yourself.
